Airplane Door vs Crossbow

This video demonstrates that a standard KitchenAid refrigerator offers no significant protection against common firearm projectiles. From .22 LR to 5.56 NATO, all tested rounds easily penetrated the appliance, highlighting its inadequacy as a bullet barrier. The experiment concludes that refrigerators should not be relied upon for protection during a home invasion scenario.

This experiment tests the bullet-stopping power of a large ball of duct tape against various calibers. While it successfully stopped .22, 9mm, .45 ACP, and even a 12-gauge slug, it was penetrated by the .44 Magnum and .450 Bushmaster rounds. The results highlight duct tape's surprising resistance to certain projectiles but its limitations against high-powered rifle and magnum handgun rounds.

This YouTube Shorts video, titled "Will it go through your HAND?" from the channel "Tekto," appears to be a demonstration or test involving a firearm. The title suggests an investigation into the penetration capabilities of a firearm or projectile, specifically in relation to human tissue (the hand). Without further information or a transcript, it's difficult to determine the exact firearm or caliber used, but the implication is a focus on ballistics and the potential dangers associated with firearms.

This YouTube video explores the durability of a solid obsidian ball when subjected to gunfire. While the specific firearm and caliber are not mentioned, the title directly indicates a ballistic test or experiment involving a projectile impacting an obsidian object. The video likely aims to demonstrate the material's resistance or fragility under such stress.

This video tests the effectiveness of various firearms in removing a Tevlaphee tire boot from a Ford F-150. While 9mm, 10mm, and 10 Gauge shotgun rounds failed to dislodge the boot, multiple shots from a 300 Win Mag Nemo Arms Nightmare rifle eventually broke the boot's locking mechanism. The experiment highlights the durability of tire boots against common handgun and shotgun calibers, requiring significant rifle power to overcome.

This video compares a homemade 12-gauge slug against a store-bought one, testing their terminal ballistics on a car door. The homemade slug, weighing 7/8 oz and cast from melted birdshot using a Lee mold, created a smaller impact hole and did not exit the vehicle. A 1 oz store-bought slug, however, produced a larger entry hole and a clean exit, demonstrating superior performance.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of an excavator bucket against various calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG API. While smaller calibers and even .450 Bushmaster and .308 were stopped, the .50 caliber Armor Piercing Incendiary round successfully penetrated the bucket, destroying a dummy target behind it. The test highlights the significant difference in terminal effects between standard rifle rounds and specialized armor-piercing ammunition.

This video tests the penetration capabilities of various calibers against a large pine tree, culminating with a .50 BMG API round. Surprisingly, even powerful rifle rounds like 5.56mm and 7.62mm, as well as handgun rounds like 10mm and .44 Magnum, failed to fully penetrate the tree. The .50 BMG API round, while charring the entry point, also did not exit the back of the tree, demonstrating the significant stopping power of a substantial tree trunk.

This video tests the penetration capabilities of various firearms rounds in a swimming pool, from .22 LR to .50 BMG. Surprisingly, higher velocity rifle rounds like the .223 and .308 fragmented quickly, while the .50 AE Desert Eagle traveled the furthest at 190 inches. The .50 BMG sniper rifle, despite its power, only penetrated 61 inches, likely due to massive energy displacement.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a Secret Service Suburban window against various calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG. While smaller calibers and even a 10mm and .44 Magnum were stopped with varying degrees of damage, the window was eventually penetrated by a .50 BMG sniper rifle round. The testing provides a clear demonstration of the limits of armored vehicle glass against high-powered rifle threats.
