This video features Edwin Sarkissian, demonstrating an experimental test to see if Orbeez can stop various firearm calibers. He tests a .22 LR, a 9mm, and a .50 AE Desert Eagle, observing the Orbeez's energy absorption and bullet deformation. The .50 AE round easily penetrates the Orbeez and the jug, highlighting significant differences in ballistic performance.

Quick Summary

In a ballistic test, Orbeez were used as a medium to stop bullets from a .22 LR, 9mm, and .50 AE Desert Eagle. While Orbeez slowed smaller calibers, the powerful .50 AE round easily penetrated both the Orbeez and the jug, showcasing significant differences in stopping power.

Frequently Asked Questions

What was the main experiment in the video?

The video tests whether Orbeez, when filling a large jug, can stop bullets fired from different firearms: a .22 LR, a 9mm, and a .50 AE Desert Eagle, to observe their stopping power.

Which firearm caliber was most effective at penetrating the Orbeez and jug?

The .50 AE caliber round fired from the Desert Eagle easily penetrated both the Orbeez and the plastic jug, demonstrating its superior power compared to the .22 LR and 9mm rounds tested.

Did the Orbeez stop the 9mm bullets?

The Orbeez initially slowed the 9mm bullets, but they eventually penetrated through the beads and were stopped by the wooden bottom of the jug, showing significant deformation.

What safety precautions were observed during the test?

The presenter, Edwin Sarkissian, demonstrated safe firearm handling, used hearing and eye protection, and ensured the test was conducted in an appropriate environment, highlighting responsible firearm experimentation.
