iPads vs Arrows 🏹

This video tests the penetration capabilities of various archery equipment against seven stacked Lifetime plastic tables. A recurve bow at higher draw weights and a Pocket Shot slingshot could penetrate the first table. A PSE compound bow with broadheads pierced three tables, while a TenPoint Nitro XRT crossbow at 470 FPS achieved the highest penetration, clearing three tables and stopping at the fourth.

This video features Edwin Sarkissian, a high-authority influencer in ballistics testing, demonstrating the penetration capabilities of various archery equipment against motorcycle helmets. The experiment highlights how arrow velocity and bow/crossbow power directly correlate with penetration depth, with higher velocity setups like the TenPoint Nitro XRT easily piercing multiple helmets.

This video features an infield test of the Pocket Shot, a unique slingshot alternative with a lightweight plastic frame and rubber pocket. The reviewer explores its potential as a replacement for standard slingshots, especially for Bug Out kits (BOKs), and discusses its fun factor for casual use with the Mini Pocket Shot. However, the primary question addressed is its efficacy for small game hunting. The reviewer also provides Amazon links for the Pocket Shot and other preferred slingshots, along with promotions for their Patreon and social media channels.

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.
