It seems the armour is designed to protect itself rather than the wearer


Bullet proof test: passed
Human: passed away

armadeo:



That bullet proof wont save anybody if shot with that gun.

The force alone will rupture organs and shatter blows even if the bullet doesnt penetrate.

ReorxTohGan:
nice one..but do snipers aim for the body tho??.
thought snipers are all bout headshots

Babadee1900:
Damn .

Isn’t the whole stunt a waste of time? Considering the fact that the person who is shot will still die from the impact.

Giving it a second thought, snipers don’t shoot from a close range, maybe if the distance between the target and the sniper is far then there’s a possibility of survival.

Ishilove:

So this means the vest failed and must be improved.

Explorers:


There might be chance of survival if fired from around 500metre - 1km away.

If they can get a volunteer to wear the vest and take the bullet from 1km away.

decatalyst:


Some are wicked.

They just want the caliber they are firing to pass through your body ...bleeding out while looking at death seems to be the goal of a merciless sniper

An angry sniper either aim for your head or first cripple you before blowing the head off!

Babadee1900:
A volunteer?
Rough play.

Ishilove:

This is so graphic

That sounds silly. The test was inconclusive. He could’ve tried the test from various distances and he could also use a well made mannequin torso...the type used in radiology.

I think that vest would be a life saver with low caliber ammo and when attacked with shot guns and even some assault rifiles like AK47.
Those vest are also meant to prevent a mess when someone is exposed to serious assaults. It prevents the body parts from shattering. Saves the combat medics and paramedics the inconveniences of picking and piecing body parts together.

A bulletproof vest that is rated for 50bmg is the highest and will stop all AK rounds.

Any bulletproof material that stops a 50 at that range will stop any bullet.


Besides am an avid follower and subscriber of Edwin and his friend, alongside other more interesting gun channels.

What they're doing most times isn't real life testing, they're testing for fun. Because nobody shoots a 50 bmg at target just 20 meters away, makes no sense.

At such close range, despite not penetrating it'll be a miracle if the person survives the shot.


Moreover he should have used a ballistics jelly mannequin as others do, most of those have similar strength as the human skin, the jelly will be shredded despite no penetration.

slam7000:


I concur, that’s why I said that the test was inconclusive and also the vest would be a life saver.
Such rounds are huge, powerful and can travel up to 2km. You’d see them being fired from machine guns mounted on vehicles. Boko boys use it to harass Naija army from a great distance.

light099:


First, what's essence of stopping the bullet, if it's gonna damage the ribs and implode the internal organs? Looks like a slower and more painful way to die.
Why not just die the death, and leave the rest for the living?

By the way, I thought the momentum of the bullet should've thrown the block or at least shifted it.

I still remember 'Django', how his shortgun threw the woman outside the room.

Second, why wear a bulletproof vest on your chest, when your forehead is still very much available for the bullet to access.

xoftcore:

Snipers don't shoot from a close range
It's too risky
So the wearer may still survive a shot from a far range
And remember it's 50 caliber bullet
And for the head
Snipers don't target the head,they may lose your target

light099:


You're right, although I didn't mean a far sniper. Just any shooter close by.

nifton:

Hey bro I pm'ed you. Can you pls reply, I need a little favor in terms of guidelines from you.
Thanks.

DAramis:
Not piercing the armour but causing damage to ribs and body organs which still leads to death defeat the whole purpose of developing it.

It is safe to conclude that the body armour failed its test.
