WW1 British Brodie (Doughboy) Helmet BULLETPROOF? *Test* (Shocking Damage)

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a World War I British Brodie helmet. Various calibers, including 9mm, .223 Remington, 7.62x39mm, and .308 Winchester, were fired at the helmet. While some rounds did not penetrate, higher-powered rounds like the .308 significantly damaged the helmet and a simulated skull.

This video provides a comprehensive test and review of the RMA Armament Gen2 1165 RF3 rated lightweight armor plate. The reviewer, with extensive experience in wearing armor, conducts rigorous ballistic testing against various calibers including 300 Win Mag, M80A1, M193, M855, 7.62x39, 10mm, and 9mm. The plate demonstrates impressive performance, stopping all tested rounds initially and showcasing its edge-to-edge protection, though it eventually fails after significant compromise.

This video demonstrates a ballistic test to determine if forklift forks can stop various firearm rounds, from .22 LR up to .50 BMG. The test, conducted by an experienced individual, shows that while forklift forks can stop many common handgun and rifle rounds, they are penetrated by the .50 BMG round. The results provide practical insights into the ballistic resistance of steel under extreme impact.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a Soviet-era hammer against various calibers. While smaller rounds like .22 LR caused minimal damage, larger calibers like 9mm, 7.62x39mm, .223 Remington, and .308 Winchester inflicted progressively more damage, with the .308 ultimately causing significant structural failure to the hammer's handle.

This video from Yee Yee Life features Parker Smith conducting an experimental ballistic test, using Feastables chocolate bars as a medium to test bullet penetration. He demonstrates how different calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG, interact with the chocolate bars, providing a unique, albeit unconventional, look at projectile energy and stopping power. The experiment highlights the significant differences in penetration capabilities across various firearm types and calibers.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a toilet seat lid against a 12-gauge shotgun blast. Surprisingly, the lid, despite a hole in the center, prevented penetration. The test highlights potential improvised ballistic protection, though the speaker notes ricocheted fragments can still be hazardous.

This video presents a humorous skit emphasizing the critical importance of wearing eye protection at the shooting range. It visually demonstrates a handgun malfunction and uses a relatable, albeit exaggerated, scenario with a spent casing to highlight the potential dangers of inadequate eye safety. The creator, experienced in firearm handling and tactical gear, reinforces this essential safety message.

This video features a 'bulletproof' test where a tree is used as a ballistic medium to test various calibers from .22 LR up to .50 BMG. The Civilian Tactical host, demonstrating high-level firearms expertise, shows that even powerful rounds like .50 BMG can be significantly stopped by a dense tree, with none of the tested rounds achieving a complete pass-through. The test highlights the surprising terminal ballistics of different ammunition types against natural barriers.

This video from Civilian Tactical explores the concept of using a human body, simulated with ballistic gel, as a suppressor. The host fires a Derya Arms .22 rifle directly against a ballistic gel head and block, noting the shot sounded 'dead silent.' The experiment demonstrates the penetration depth of a .22 LR round through the simulated head and into the gel block.

This video demonstrates a ballistic test on a Belgian M1 steel helmet, evaluating its resistance against various calibers from birdshot to .223. The test, conducted by Civilian Tactical Host, shows that the helmet is not bulletproof against common handgun and rifle rounds like 9mm and .223. The host's energetic and demonstration-oriented style, coupled with expertise in tactical gear, provides a clear assessment of the helmet's limitations.
