50BMG VS FRIDGE WITH PROPANE

This video demonstrates the firing of a .50 BMG rifle, specifically the Serbu BFG-50, into a sandbag target. It highlights the significant recoil and muzzle blast associated with this powerful caliber. The footage includes a close-up of the spent casing ejection and an assessment of the impact on the sandbag, showing penetration and sand leakage. Steel targets in the background are also observed for any secondary impacts.

This video tests the ballistic penetration capabilities of a 100-pound lead block against various firearm calibers, from .22LR up to a .50 BMG. The test demonstrates that while smaller calibers leave minimal marks, larger rounds create significant craters. Notably, even powerful rifle rounds like the .308 and .223 fail to fully penetrate the block, highlighting lead's effectiveness as a projectile barrier. The .50 BMG is the only caliber shown to successfully penetrate the entire block and reach the target behind it.

This video from Yee Yee Life tests the ballistic resistance of steel toe boots against various firearm calibers, from .22LR up to .50 BMG. The expert instructor demonstrates that while steel toe boots can stop smaller caliber rounds like .22LR, .380 ACP, 9mm, and .45 ACP, they fail to stop higher-powered rounds such as the .44 Magnum, .50 AE, and .50 BMG, which penetrate the boots and the mannequin used for testing. The demonstration highlights the limitations of standard footwear against significant ballistic threats.

This video documents an experiment where a single .50 BMG round was heated on a stovetop, simulating a 'forbidden hot dog'. The round detonated after approximately five minutes, punching a hole through the cooking pan. The speaker, demonstrating caution by taking cover, highlights the destructive potential of heated ammunition and advises against such actions.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a bank door against various calibers, from .22LR up to .50 BMG. The door successfully stopped all handgun rounds and even the .50 AE from a Desert Eagle. However, an AK-47 round (7.62x39mm) and a .50 BMG round penetrated the door, with the .50 BMG causing complete destruction. The test highlights significant differences in penetration capabilities between common handgun rounds and rifle calibers.

This video from Gun For Hire Range features hosts Rich and Matt conducting a comparative test of various firearm calibers (.22, .223, .308, AK-47/7.62x39mm, and .50 BMG) against different targets including a paper roll, ballistic gel, a dead laptop, blast bottles, and tiles. The experiment visually demonstrates the significant differences in terminal ballistics and destructive power across these calibers, highlighting the impact of momentum and energy transfer.

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.
