This video from Tática Civil tests the lethality of a unique shotgun shell loaded with three bouncy balls, branded by Hickory Flat Boars. The instructor, demonstrating significant expertise in ballistic testing, evaluates the shell's performance through water jug, paper target, and ballistic dummy head tests. The results indicate extreme devastation, with the projectiles shredding targets and causing significant damage to the ballistic dummy, leading to a strong warning against being hit by this ammunition.

This video from Kentucky Ballistics tests Byrna Kinetic less-lethal 12 Gauge shotgun rounds. The rounds, resembling small torpedoes, were fired at a watermelon and a five-gallon water jug. The assessment focused on the impact and potential for injury, concluding the rounds would sting but not puncture skin.

This video from Kentucky Ballistics tests the lethality of Duke brand bear traps, specifically the #15 and #16 models. Using custom tools and ballistic gel, the demonstration shows the significant force and potential for severe injury these traps can inflict. The content highlights the importance of safe trap handling and the destructive power of these mechanical devices.

This video tests the projectile resistance of a giant jawbreaker candy against various firearm calibers. While birdshot and .22 LR cause superficial damage, .380 Auto and 9mm rounds significantly fracture the candy. High-powered rifle rounds like 7.62x39 and 6.5 Creedmoor completely obliterate the jawbreaker, demonstrating the vast difference in destructive power between handgun and rifle cartridges.

This video provides an expert-level review and test of the X Products Can Cannon, an AR-15 upper receiver designed to launch projectiles like soda cans and golf balls using blank cartridges. The host, demonstrating high authority through the use of professional ballistic measurement tools and a clear understanding of AR-15 platform modularity, tests velocities reaching up to 197 FPS (134 MPH) for golf balls and assesses accuracy and destructive potential on targets. The review highlights the device's compatibility, payload options, and practical range, concluding with a comparison to a 9mm handgun.

This video, titled "Essa munição faz um estrago impressionante!" (This ammunition does impressive damage!), likely showcases the destructive power of a particular type of ammunition. Without a description, the focus is entirely on the impact and effects demonstrated, suggesting a focus on ballistics, terminal performance, or perhaps even a specific firearm's capability with certain rounds.

This YouTube video, titled 'Explodindo Bolas de Boliche com Rifle .50 CAL' (Exploding Bowling Balls with .50 CAL Rifle), showcases the destructive power of a .50 caliber rifle by targeting and detonating bowling balls. The content focuses on the impact and performance of this powerful firearm against a non-traditional target, highlighting the ballistic capabilities and sheer force involved in such a demonstration. The video likely appeals to firearm enthusiasts interested in extreme caliber performance and ballistic testing.

This YouTube video explores what happens to frangible ammunition after it impacts a steel plate. The title suggests a focus on the ballistic behavior and fragmentation of such projectiles, likely involving testing and analysis of the resulting debris and impact on the steel. The video aims to provide visual and informative answers about the terminal ballistics of frangible rounds when interacting with hard targets.

This YouTube Shorts video signals the commencement of ballistic testing. While the specific firearms or calibers being tested are not detailed in the provided information, the title strongly indicates an upcoming series focused on the performance and characteristics of firearms through destructive testing. This content is likely to appeal to firearm enthusiasts interested in the technical aspects of ballistics and projectile impact.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a Spanish Comb (Morion) helmet. While effective at deflecting smaller projectiles like birdshot, .22 LR, and .380 Auto, it was penetrated by 9mm rounds and easily defeated by rifle calibers (.223 and 7.62x39). The helmet's steep angles are designed for deflection, but it ultimately proved less effective than other historical helmet designs tested previously.

This video unboxes a ballistic dummy head from Ballistic Dummy Lab, featuring a clear ballistic gelatin exterior and an internal skull. The creator, Johnny Q, highlights the product's short shelf life, recommending use within 2-3 weeks due to the perishable nature of ballistic gel. He solicits audience suggestions for testing scenarios, hinting at potential impact testing or 'outrageous' uses for the dummy head.

This video features a dramatic test of a Punt Gun against thick bulletproof glass, captured at 200,000 FPS by The Slow Mo Guys. The Punt Gun, loaded with a 1lb lead ball, successfully shattered the glass. A subsequent test using four 4-bore bullets showed the glass resisting some impacts, highlighting the difference between single large projectiles and multiple smaller ones against extreme ballistic protection.
