This video demonstrates an experimental ballistic test where bullets are fired into a rapidly spinning airplane propeller mounted on a van. Expert Matt Carriker of DemolitionRanch showcases safe firearm handling and a unique setup for observing projectile impact on a high-speed, rotating target. The test highlights the destructive potential of 5.56x45mm NATO rounds against metal under extreme rotational forces.
This video from DemolitionRanch, featuring Matt Carriker, explores whether a spinning airplane propeller can stop a bullet. The experiment involves modifying a van to spin a propeller and then firing 5.56x45mm NATO and .308 Winchester rounds at it. The results show that propellers shatter and create shrapnel rather than stopping bullets, concluding they are not effective shields.
