This video details a DIY challenge to bulletproof car doors using readily available materials like porcelain tiles, construction adhesive, and fiberglass. The creators tested various configurations against multiple calibers, from 9mm to .308 Winchester. Key takeaways include the effectiveness of a three-tile stackup with matte finish porcelain, the superior performance of Loctite construction adhesive over Liquid Nails, and the significant benefit of a fiberglass layer for multi-strike capability. The Flex Seal was found to be less effective at holding fragmented materials together.

This video demonstrates a DIY method for creating a bullet-resistant barrier in a truck bed using readily available hardware store materials, primarily lumber and gravel. The constructed barrier was then subjected to rigorous ballistic testing with calibers ranging from 9mm to .50 BMG, including an armor-piercing incendiary round, with impressive results.
