This short video tests the ballistic resistance of a Husqvarna Gold S1520 industrial saw blade against various calibers. While a .22 LR and 9mm leave minimal marks, a .44 Magnum causes significant deformation. A 5.56 NATO Green Tip round, however, penetrates the blade easily, demonstrating the limitations of the material against higher-powered rifle rounds.

This video from Yee Yee Life tests the ballistic resistance of bubble wrap against various projectiles, including 12-gauge birdshot, a compound bow, a .22 LR rifle, and a 9mm handgun. The experiment, conducted by an experienced shooter, demonstrates that bubble wrap offers minimal protection against firearms and arrows. The host concludes bubble wrap is ineffective for ballistic protection.

This video demonstrates a practical, albeit extreme, test of a flight recorder's (black box) durability against firearm projectiles. Instructor Edwin Sarkissian uses a 9mm handgun, an AK-47, and a .50 caliber rifle with API rounds to assess the box's resistance. The results show the box is remarkably resilient, with projectiles being stopped or significantly impeded, leading to the conclusion that it is 'sort of bulletproof' due to its dense construction.

This video tests the durability of throwing knives against various firearms, including a 5.7x28mm pistol, AR-15, AK-47, and a .50 BMG rifle. The knives, described as approximately a quarter-inch thick steel, surprisingly resisted penetration from most calibers, with even the .50 BMG incendiary round stopping on the second knife. The experiment highlights the robust nature of the steel used in the knives, which disintegrated or deformed rather than allowing penetration.

This video tests the effectiveness of Defender Body Armor's Level 3A vest and a helmet against arrows. The tests demonstrate that the body armor successfully stops multiple arrow impacts without penetration, and the helmet also shows resistance, though it sustains damage. The presenter, who claims expertise in archery, conducts the tests from various distances.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of bell peppers by shooting them. The title suggests a focus on projectile penetration and the effectiveness of common objects against firearms. While no specific firearms or calibers are mentioned, the premise directly relates to ballistic performance and would appeal to those interested in the physics of firearms and projectile interaction with materials.

This YouTube video explores the ballistic resistance of sheet metal, specifically addressing the question of how many layers are needed to stop a bullet. While the specific firearm and caliber used are not detailed in the provided information, the title suggests a focus on projectile penetration and material science in relation to firearms.
