Videos tagged with Projectile Lethality

This video tests the lethality of a projectile made from JB Weld epoxy. While the projectile demonstrated significant penetration capabilities in ballistic gelatin, it was found to be extremely inaccurate. The test highlights the potential dangers of improvised projectiles and emphasizes the importance of using commercially manufactured ammunition for predictable performance and safety.

This video tests the lethality of firing pencils from a 12-gauge shotgun. While the pencils did not prove lethal, they did cause damage to water bottles and left fragments in a paper target. The experiment highlights that not all projectiles fired from a firearm are inherently deadly.

This video demonstrates the surprising lethality of a Jolly Rancher candy fired from a shotgun. The experiment tests its impact on water bottles and a fragmentation vest, revealing its potential to act like a projectile with significant energy transfer. The findings suggest that while not conventional ammunition, such improvised projectiles can possess dangerous terminal ballistics.

This video tests the lethality of Lego pieces fired from an Axor Arms shotgun. The experiment involves shooting Lego-encrusted cardboard and a Bullet Safe fragmentation vest to assess penetration and potential harm. The results indicate that Lego fragments can penetrate targets and embed themselves, suggesting a potential for injury.

This video tests the lethality of steel washers as projectiles. The assessment includes energy transfer into a water jug, projectile dispersion, accuracy on a paper target, and penetration of homemade body armor. The results indicate that steel washers can be lethal, capable of penetrating certain types of armor.
