How much Peanut butter it takes to stop a bullet?

This video tests the projectile resistance of a giant jawbreaker candy against various firearm calibers. While birdshot and .22 LR cause superficial damage, .380 Auto and 9mm rounds significantly fracture the candy. High-powered rifle rounds like 7.62x39 and 6.5 Creedmoor completely obliterate the jawbreaker, demonstrating the vast difference in destructive power between handgun and rifle cartridges.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a large crystal ball against various firearm calibers, from .22 LR to a .50 BMG sniper rifle. While smaller calibers cause minor damage, larger rounds like the .308 and 12 gauge slug create significant internal fracturing and shattering. The .50 BMG completely obliterates the crystal ball, but remarkably, the bullet still doesn't penetrate the mannequin behind it.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a custom-built 'Bender' helmet, incorporating a bomb suit base, 4-inch tank glass, and ShootSteel.com plates. While 9mm and .50 AE rounds were stopped, 7.62x39mm shattered the internal visor, and an 8mm Mauser caused significant damage. A .50 BMG round ultimately penetrated the front plate, demonstrating the limits of the armor against extreme calibers.

This experiment tests Oobleck's ability to stop bullets, revealing it's surprisingly effective against high-energy rounds. While lower handgun calibers like .22 LR were stopped, 9mm and .45 ACP penetrated. However, the .44 Magnum and even rifle rounds like 5.56 NATO and 7.62x39mm were successfully halted by the non-Newtonian fluid. The depth and orientation of the Oobleck significantly impacted its stopping power.

This experiment tests the ballistic resistance of bubble wrap against various projectiles. A 12-gauge birdshot, a compound bow arrow, and a .22 caliber round were fired at a mannequin wrapped in bubble wrap. None of the projectiles were effectively stopped, with all penetrating the material. The conclusion is that bubble wrap is not a viable option for bullet protection.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of 7075 aircraft-grade aluminum against various firearms, from 9mm to .50 BMG. While most handgun and intermediate rifle rounds cause surface damage or shallow craters, they fail to penetrate the inch-thick aluminum. Larger calibers like .338 Lapua Magnum and .50 BMG demonstrate significant material deformation, with the .50 BMG API round eventually penetrating multiple plates.

This video tests how many cast iron skillets are needed to stop various bullets, from .22 LR to 500 S&W Magnum. Most common handgun rounds like 9mm and .45 ACP are stopped by two skillets. Rifle rounds like 5.56mm and 7.62x39mm also require two to three skillets, while the powerful 500 S&W Magnum penetrates three and is stopped by the fourth. The .22 LR failed to penetrate even the first skillet.

This video tests the penetration capabilities of a .50 BMG rifle, specifically the Serbu BFG-50A, against a section of railroad track. Various .50 caliber rounds, including Raufoss Mk 211 API and silver tip API, were fired. While the rifle and ammunition demonstrated the ability to penetrate even the thickest parts of the rail (over 1.5 inches), bullet deflection and shifting upon impact with the dense steel were observed.

This video demonstrates launching an M67 fragmentation grenade using an X Products Can Cannon towards a distant frozen lake. The Can Cannon, firing .223 blanks, successfully propels the grenade, which detonates upon impact, creating a visible hole in the ice. The experiment highlights the launcher's capability for extreme projectile delivery in challenging outdoor conditions.

This video tests the destructive power of a .50 caliber spotter round against 1.25-inch thick bulletproof glass, comparing it to a standard FMJ round. The spotter round, designed to spark and flash, created a larger crater and more surface damage than the FMJ round, demonstrating its specialized impact characteristics. The Serbu BFG-50A rifle was used for both tests.
