This video tests the bullet-stopping capabilities of NeeDoh, a squishy, stress-relief toy, against various firearm calibers ranging from .22LR to .50 BMG. The experiment uses high-speed cameras to analyze projectile impact and deformation. Results show NeeDoh can absorb significant energy from pistol rounds but is overwhelmed by rifle calibers, often disintegrating projectiles.

Quick Summary

NeeDoh toys can stop lower caliber rounds like .22LR, but they are quickly overwhelmed by higher-powered rifle calibers. While they absorb some energy from pistol rounds, they tend to disintegrate or cause projectiles to explode when hit by rifle fire.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can NeeDoh stop bullets?

NeeDoh toys can stop lower caliber rounds like .22LR, but they are quickly overwhelmed by higher-powered rifle calibers. While they absorb some energy from pistol rounds, they tend to disintegrate or cause projectiles to explode when hit by rifle fire.

What happens when a bullet hits NeeDoh?

When a bullet hits NeeDoh, the material deforms and absorbs energy. Lower caliber rounds may penetrate partially or be stopped. Higher caliber rounds often cause the NeeDoh to disintegrate and can lead to projectile fragmentation or explosion upon impact.

What calibers were tested against NeeDoh?

The test included .22LR, 9mm, .45 ACP, 5.56x45mm NATO, 300 Blackout, .338 Lapua Magnum, 6.5 Creedmoor, and .50 BMG. High-speed cameras were used to analyze the results.

Is NeeDoh a viable bulletproof material?

Based on the tests, NeeDoh is not a viable bulletproof material for serious protection. While it demonstrates some ability to absorb energy from smaller rounds, it fails against rifle calibers, often leading to projectile disintegration.
