This video demonstrates a unique ballistic test using 12 Gauge shotgun shells loaded with jawbreaker candies. The instructor, exhibiting experienced authority, fires these shells at a water jug, paper target, and a Clear Ballistics Joe Fit Head. The results show that these candy projectiles carry significant energy, create a wide spread, and can cause substantial damage, debunking the notion that they are harmless.

This video demonstrates a series of ballistic tests using various projectiles, including .22LR, 12-gauge birdshot and slug, 9mm hollow point, a crossbow bolt, and a .50 Cal round, to determine how many basketballs each can penetrate. The results offer a visual comparison of the stopping power and penetration capabilities of different ammunition types and projectile platforms. The experiment highlights the significant differences in energy and effectiveness between common handgun rounds, shotgun loads, and high-powered rifle cartridges.

This video, titled "Pellet vs Skull" and described as "A little pellet goes a long way," challenges viewers about their longest non-firearm projectile hits. The hashtag #dirtycivilian is included. Based on the title and description, the content likely involves a projectile comparison and potentially a discussion about the effectiveness of non-firearm projectiles, aiming to spark engagement from the firearm enthusiast community.

This YouTube video features a comparison between Nerf darts and real darts, as indicated by the title "Nerf Dart vs Real Dart! {same size?}". The creator, Johnny Q, expresses surprise that they are not the same size, contrary to their initial expectation. The description includes contact information and links to the creator's other social media platforms. While the title explicitly mentions 'darts' in the context of toys and comparison, the word 'firearm' or any specific gun models are absent. However, the core of the comparison hinges on the physical characteristics of 'darts,' which can be interpreted broadly. Given the lack of explicit firearm mentions, the most appropriate category and tags will reflect a general comparison of small projectiles rather than firearm-specific content.

This comprehensive review by Ben Pierson of Shooting Gear Reviews delves into the AEA Zeus .72 Cal, an exceptionally powerful airgun. Pierson, a recognized expert in airgun technology, provides detailed insights into its ballistics, mechanics, and practical applications. The review highlights the Zeus's 1200 ft-lbs of energy, confirmed by chronograph readings of 1030 FPS with a 500-grain slug, and demonstrates impressive accuracy at 50 and 100 yards.

This video from VSO Gun Channel, featuring Tod's Workshop, poses a question about whether arrows are superior to bullets. The description emphasizes VSO's role as an educational resource focused on responsible gun ownership and safety, clarifying they are not in the business of selling firearms. They highlight their commitment to objective, test-based content, even if negative aspects are relevant. The video may have lost its description due to a bulk update, with a link to VSO's affiliate page provided for missing information.

This expert guide details a ballistic comparison between high-powered airguns like the AirForce Texan and Benjamin Bulldog against a 9mm handgun. It covers muzzle energy, penetration through various materials including aerated concrete and ballistic gel, and projectile dynamics. The assessment concludes that high-powered air rifles are formidable tools and potential alternatives in restrictive firearm jurisdictions.

This video demonstrates the penetration capabilities of an Excalibur Micro Edition crossbow against multiple layers of giant gummy bears, comparing its performance to a 9mm handgun. The crossbow, with a 280-pound draw weight, successfully penetrated two and a half five-pound gummy bears, indicating significant stopping power.

This video conducts a penetration test comparing 9mm and .45 ACP calibers against cinder blocks. The test uses a Beretta 92FS for 9mm and a Colt 1911 for .45 ACP, both with 5-inch barrels for consistency. The results indicate comparable penetration through a single cinder block layer for both calibers, with the .45 ACP projectile appearing to retain its integrity slightly better.
