Can a full keg of beer stop a bullet?

This video demonstrates a ballistic test on a stainless steel beer keg using a variety of calibers, from .22 LR up to a 12-gauge slug. The experiment, conducted by the Yee Yee Life host, shows how different ammunition types interact with the keg's steel, highlighting penetration differences. The 5.56 Green Tip round was the only one to successfully penetrate both sides of the keg.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a 100-pound block of lead against various firearm calibers, from .22LR up to .50 BMG. The experiment demonstrates how different rounds interact with soft lead, showing deformation and penetration depths. Notably, the .50 BMG round successfully penetrated the entire lead block and a target behind it, highlighting the extreme power of this caliber.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a sledgehammer against various calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG. It demonstrates that even smaller rounds cause superficial damage, while larger calibers like 7.62x39mm and 5.56mm create significant dents and fragmentation. The .50 BMG round causes the most substantial damage, but the hammer remains intact, suggesting a high degree of ballistic resistance.

This video from Yee Yee Life tests the ballistic resistance of an Everlast punching bag against a variety of calibers, from .22 LR up to .50 BMG. The experiment, conducted by a firearms enthusiast, demonstrates that the punching bag effectively stops handgun and most rifle rounds, protecting a torso dummy. However, a .50 BMG round penetrates the bag and its support structure.

This video from Kentucky Ballistics features an expert firearms instructor testing the ballistic resistance of a KitchenAid refrigerator. Using a variety of calibers from .22 LR to 5.56 NATO, the experiment demonstrates that a refrigerator offers minimal protection against firearms. The test concludes with a physical impact demonstration using a Ford F-Series truck.

This video from Yee Yee Life features an expert firearms instructor conducting a ballistic test. They evaluate how different bullet calibers, from .22 LR up to a .50 BMG sniper rifle, penetrate a 50-pound bag of Supreme Long Grain Rice and impact a dummy. The experiment demonstrates significant differences in terminal ballistics based on caliber and firearm type.

This video demonstrates the ballistic resistance of an excavator bucket against various firearm calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG API. The test, conducted by an experienced individual, shows that while smaller calibers cause minimal damage, larger rounds like the .50 BMG API can penetrate the bucket. The footage provides visual evidence of impact effects and the destructive potential of different ammunition types.

This video tests the penetration capabilities of various calibers against a large pine tree, culminating with a .50 BMG API round. Surprisingly, even powerful rifle rounds like 5.56mm and 7.62mm, as well as handgun rounds like 10mm and .44 Magnum, failed to fully penetrate the tree. The .50 BMG API round, while charring the entry point, also did not exit the back of the tree, demonstrating the significant stopping power of a substantial tree trunk.

This video from Yee Yee Life features an experienced host testing the ballistic penetration of various calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG, in an Intex swimming pool. The host demonstrates proper firearm safety and provides detailed measurements of bullet penetration depths, offering unique insights into how different rounds interact with water as a medium. The results highlight significant variations in penetration based on caliber and velocity.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a Secret Service Suburban window against various calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG. While smaller calibers and even a 10mm and .44 Magnum were stopped with varying degrees of damage, the window was eventually penetrated by a .50 BMG sniper rifle round. The testing provides a clear demonstration of the limits of armored vehicle glass against high-powered rifle threats.
