This video features Edwin Sarkissian conducting an experimental ballistic test, determining how many cast iron skillets it takes to stop a .500 Magnum and an AK-47 round. The test reveals that both powerful rounds were stopped by the third skillet, offering a unique insight into projectile energy versus material resistance. The demonstration highlights the impressive penetration capabilities of the .500 S&W Magnum and the 7.62x39mm round when faced with a dense, albeit unconventional, barrier.

This video showcases an experimental approach to disabling riding lawn mowers using firearms and improvised armor. While firearms like the Zip 22 and Desert Eagle were tested against various materials including flak vests and cinder blocks, they ultimately failed to disable the mowers. The participants resorted to a demolition derby to achieve their objective. The content highlights the practical limitations of firearms against substantial improvised armor in a destructive, experimental context.

This video conducts a series of ballistic tests comparing different calibers and ammunition types against stacked cast iron skillets. The Serbu BFG-50 firing a 50 BMG API-T round penetrated 14 skillets, while a 458 SOCOM Extreme Penetrator stopped on the fifth. A 44 Magnum Extreme Penetrator stopped on the second skillet, and a 50 AE round penetrated three skillets. The tests highlight significant differences in penetration capabilities based on caliber and projectile construction.
