This video showcases a custom-built 'Frankenstein' helmet, inspired by Iron Man, designed to withstand high-caliber rounds. Initial testing with an FN SCAR 17 firing 7.62x51mm rounds demonstrated the helmet's ability to deflect the projectile with only superficial damage. However, a subsequent test with a Serbu BFG-50A firing a .50 BMG API round resulted in the complete destruction of the helmet, highlighting the limitations of AR500 steel against such powerful ammunition.

This video demonstrates a comprehensive ballistic test of a custom-built bulletproof helmet, dubbed 'Bender's Head'. High-authority shooter Edwin Sarkissian subjects the helmet to various calibers, including 9mm, .50 AE, 7.62x39mm, 8mm Mauser, and .50 BMG, fired from different firearms. The testing reveals the helmet's capabilities and limitations against significant ballistic threats, highlighting the effectiveness of its 4-inch thick tank glass visor and ShootSteel.com plating against most threats, but ultimately succumbing to a .50 BMG round.

This video details an experimental test of a custom-built helmet claimed to be .50 caliber rated. Host Edwin Sarkissian, demonstrating high authority in practical ballistic testing, subjects the helmet to 9mm, .308 Winchester, and .50 BMG rounds. The tests reveal the helmet's limitations, ultimately concluding it functions closer to a Level 3 ballistic protection rather than the advertised .50 cal rating.
