This experiment tests the myth of deflecting a bullet with a hand. While a .45 ACP bullet did deflect slightly and slow down when impacting a ballistic hand during a 'slap' motion, it still passed through, causing significant damage. The 'punch' method was less effective. The conclusion is that while theoretical deflection is possible, it's highly unreliable and results in catastrophic hand injury, making it an impractical defense.
