But can the Masks stop 50cal?

This video tests the penetration power of various calibers through paper, ranging from .22 LR to a .50 BMG sniper rifle. Key findings include the .50 BMG penetrating over 3,000 sheets, while a 9mm round stopped at 500 sheets. The .44 Magnum surprisingly penetrated fewer sheets than the 9mm, possibly due to bullet expansion. The .223 Remington from an AR-15 demonstrated significant penetration, exceeding 2,000 sheets.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a cast iron sewer lid against various calibers, from .22 LR to a .50 BMG sniper rifle. While smaller calibers like .22 LR and 9mm caused only minor surface damage, a 12 gauge slug deformed and fragmented, embedding in the backing. The 7.62 SCAR penetrated a mannequin behind the lid, but the lid itself remained largely intact. Ultimately, the .50 BMG sniper rifle successfully penetrated the sewer lid, demonstrating its extreme power.

This experiment tests a large rock's durability against various firearm calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG. Smaller calibers like .22 LR and 9mm were ineffective, while .45 ACP caused minor chipping. The .450 Bushmaster shattered the rock's top, and the .50 BMG completely obliterated it, demonstrating its immense power.

This video tests the ballistic penetration of various firearms calibers through a 2500-gallon water tank. Results show that even powerful rounds like .50 BMG and 5.56 NATO fragment or deform significantly upon entering the water, failing to reach a target 6.5 feet away. Smaller calibers like .22 LR and 9mm are stopped with minimal deformation. Approximately 6.5 feet of water provides substantial protection against most common firearms.

This video tests the durability of a 150-pound anvil against various calibers, including 9mm, 10mm, .44 Magnum, .50 AE, 12-gauge slug, 5.56, .243, .308, and finally a .50 BMG sniper rifle. While smaller calibers only left minor marks, the .50 BMG, even with an incendiary round, failed to penetrate the anvil, creating a significant crater but ultimately being stopped. The test highlights the extreme stopping power of the .50 BMG against solid objects.

This video tests the penetration capabilities of a telephone pole against various firearms, from .22 LR to a .50 BMG sniper rifle. Surprisingly, the pole stops smaller calibers and even 5.56 Green Tip rounds. However, a .50 BMG armor-piercing incendiary round completely penetrates the pole and the mannequin behind it, demonstrating the extreme power of this caliber.

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.
