Can a Swimming Pool Stop a 50cal?

This video demonstrates the durability of a Shoot Steel target against a .50 BMG rifle. Despite two direct hits from a heavy caliber round at close range, the AR500 steel target showed no warping or significant damage, only surface paint removal. The test confirms the target's resilience and suitability for extreme calibers.

This experiment tests the penetration power of various calibers through 500 stacked paper plates. Results show a significant difference in stopping power, with smaller calibers like .22 LR penetrating fewer plates than larger rifle rounds. The .50 BMG round, in particular, demonstrated extreme penetration, going through all plates and heavily damaging the target.

This video explores the feasibility of using a "human tripod" to stabilize a .50 BMG rifle. The title suggests a potential experiment or demonstration to see if this unconventional setup can achieve accurate firing. The content likely delves into the mechanics, stability challenges, and potential outcomes of such a shooting scenario.

This YouTube video features a destructive testing scenario where the creators investigate how many ballistic dummy heads can be penetrated by a single .50 BMG round. The title and description highlight the caliber and the destructive nature of the test, indicating a focus on ballistics and firearm capabilities. The video also includes links for merchandise, Patreon support, PayPal donations, and social media engagement, as well as affiliate links for camera equipment.

This video showcases the use of supersonic ammunition in what is described as the uploader's "loudest gun." The title suggests an emphasis on the auditory experience and the performance of high-velocity rounds, likely involving a powerful firearm known for its sound signature. The content probably features a range test or demonstration of this specific ammunition in the mentioned firearm.

This video appears to be a comparison of different ammunition types to determine which one produces the largest "boom," likely referring to muzzle blast and sound. Without a transcript, it's difficult to ascertain the specific firearms or calibers being tested, but the title suggests a focus on the auditory and potential concussive effects of various rounds. The content likely involves testing different loads, possibly in rifles, shotguns, or pistols, to demonstrate the differences in their sound output.

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.
