I'm Scared To Shoot This AMMO!😱

This video tests the ballistic resistance of steel-toe boots against various calibers, from .22LR up to .50 BMG. While smaller calibers like .22LR and .380 ACP were completely stopped with minimal deformation, larger calibers like 9mm and .45 ACP caused significant bulging and potential toe injury, though they were still stopped. The .44 Magnum partially penetrated the steel on one attempt, and the 50 AE and 50 BMG successfully penetrated the steel toe, rendering the boots ineffective against these high-powered rounds.
