This video demonstrates a DIY approach to creating improvised body armor using readily available materials. The presenter tests the effectiveness of ceramic tiles layered on a fiberglass welding blanket against rifle rounds, specifically a 5.56x45mm projectile from a Sentry Arms BFT 556. The test indicates that this homemade armor was capable of stopping the 5.56 round.
This video tests a DIY body armor made from 20 layers of fiberglass welding cloth against ballistic threats. The creator aimed to assess if it could meet Level IIIA standards. The test involved shooting a 9mm 115-grain round from a Glock 19 and a .44 Magnum. The results indicated that the armor failed to stop the 9mm round, penetrating through to a backboard, thus not meeting the desired ballistic protection level.
