Can Car Doors stop bullets? | Polenar Tactical

This video focuses on a ballistic test involving steel plates, where the creator demonstrates their ability to "skip" a bullet using these plates. The experiment likely involves firearms and ammunition to show how projectiles interact with hardened steel surfaces, potentially exploring ricochet or deflection dynamics. The content is highly relevant to firearms enthusiasts interested in ballistics and the practical performance of ammunition against defensive or target materials.

This experiment tested the ground penetration depth of five different calibers: 9mm (9.5 inches), 10mm (17.5 inches), .44 Magnum (19 inches), 5.56 Green Tip (6 inches), and a 12 Gauge Slug (6.5 inches). The .44 Magnum achieved the deepest penetration. The 5.56 Green Tip's shallow depth was attributed to potential fragmentation or instability.

TheYankeeMarshal discusses the variability in his average range round count, noting that it can range from 5 for a quick check to 50-200 for extensive testing. He emphasizes that extensive testing, like ballistic penetration or speed measurements, is rare due to ammunition expense. Typical practice sessions hover around 50-100 rounds. The speaker also touches on his diminishing tolerance for the recoil of the .45 Colt.

This experiment tests how many pumpkins various firearms can penetrate. Handguns like the .45 ACP and .44 Magnum showed surprising stopping power, while high-velocity rifle rounds like the .223 and .308 fragmented or veered off course. The Desert Eagle chambered in .50 AE achieved the deepest penetration, stopping in the 13th pumpkin.

This video demonstrates an experiment to 'curve' a .50 BMG round using custom bent galvanized pipes. The initial attempt with a sharp bend caused the pipe to rupture, but a second attempt with a more gradual bend successfully guided the bullet to a steel target. The experiment highlights the extreme power of the .50 BMG round and the challenges of redirecting such high-velocity projectiles.

This video tests the bulletproof capabilities of an anvil against various calibers, from .22LR to .50 BMG. While smaller calibers had no effect, the .308 Win left a mark, and the .50 BMG round knocked the anvil over but did not penetrate. The conclusion is that an anvil is effectively bulletproof against common and even heavy-duty commercial rounds.

This video demonstrates the fundamental safety mechanism of a hand grenade, specifically the T G-67 M-SOFT model. It highlights that the grenade remains safe as long as the safety lever (spoon) is held down. Pulling the pin initiates the delay fuse, but detonation is prevented until the spoon is released, emphasizing the importance of maintaining grip for safety.

This video demonstrates the proper application of a DINPRO CAT-style tourniquet for severe leg wounds. It highlights the 'high and tight' placement above the injury and the critical step of tightening the windlass until bleeding stops, emphasizing that while painful, this is essential for saving a life. The presenter, Ziga from Polenar Tactical, showcases expert-level knowledge in trauma care.

This video demonstrates the TAG 18 Smoke White grenade, highlighting its operation similar to a hand grenade but using pyrotechnic powder for smoke. The activation process involves pulling a pin and releasing a spoon to ignite the powder, producing a thick white smoke cloud for concealment or signaling. The demonstration emphasizes safe handling and deployment.

This video demonstrates the FBG-6 Flash Bang 2.0, clarifying that real flashbangs disorient rather than produce movie-like blinding flashes. It highlights the 2-second delay mechanism and the importance of holding the safety lever. An accidental detonation on the range floor showcases its acoustic and pressure effects.
