Machado de Bombeiro é à prova de balas? Testamos com 50 BMG!

This video from Tactical Advisor tests the ballistic resistance of air tanks against a powerful 50 BMG sniper rifle. The experiment aims to determine how many air tanks are required to stop a round from such a high-caliber weapon. The channel emphasizes its content is for informational and entertainment purposes only, with all demonstrations conducted by trained professionals at a private range, and firearms rendered inoperable when not in use. It also promotes supporting the channel through various platforms and merchandise.

This video features a ballistic test comparing a .50 BMG rifle round against a seemingly inexpensive Chinese-made Level IV rifle plate, likely sourced from TEMU. The experiment aims to determine the effectiveness and durability of this budget body armor when subjected to high-powered rifle fire. The description highlights the affordability of the armor, positioning it as the "cheapest Body Armor."

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 ballistic test compares the penetration power of various calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG, using water jugs. The video showcases firearms like the Volquartsen .22 LR, Canik TTI Combat 9mm, GForce Arms .357 Magnum lever gun, Zastava AK47 in 7.62x39, and a .50 BMG Raptor 50 upper. It highlights the significant energy transfer differences between these calibers, particularly the extreme power of the .50 BMG round.

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 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 explores the theoretical and practical outcome of loading a 50 BMG cartridge into a 12 gauge flare gun. The experiment, conducted by a hobbyist, demonstrates that while the 50 BMG cartridge surprisingly fits, the flare gun's firing mechanism and primer strength are insufficient to ignite it. The test highlights the significant differences in primer resistance between ammunition types.

This video debunks the myth that shooting upwards is safe, explaining the lethal terminal velocity of falling projectiles. It showcases the Canik Mete MC9 Prime with a Gideon Valor optic and demonstrates the use of 9mm shot shells for controlled, less dangerous demonstrations, highlighting their unique projectile dispersal.

This video debunks the myth that a .50 BMG round passing near a target can be lethal due to shockwave. Using a ballistic mannequin head and a Big Kahuna Firearms Raptor-50 rifle, the test demonstrated that while the .50 BMG round impacted and destroyed a concrete block behind the target, it did not affect the mannequin or the cardboard placed near it. The conclusion is that a near miss from a .50 BMG is not fatal.

This video conducts a destructive test comparing the impact of .22 LR and .50 BMG rounds on a ballistic head model. The .22 LR caused minimal damage, while the .50 BMG completely destroyed the head, highlighting the vast difference in energy and destructive potential between the two calibers. The test also showcases the Raptor .50 BMG upper receiver as an accessible way to experience .50 BMG ballistics on an AR-15 platform.
