Ishilove:That 50calibre is not just like regular bullets, is more powerful. |
Babadee1900: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. |
Ishilove:It will definitely affect the heart or burst the lungs. |
ReorxTohGan:Headshot from long range is not that simple as we see in movies, most especially a moving target. Primary objective is to kill, they go for the easiest spot. |
tillaman:Days ke? see that brick na. That broken concrete brick is stronger than humans rib cage. Instant death.

Checking the impact, the bullet didn't pierce through the vest but the concrete block inside broke into pieces. Sarkissian says that if the vest is placed on someone instead of the brick and exposed to the shot, the human chest, rib cage can be broken.

He fired at 20 meters from the vest with the semi-automatic sniper rifle Serbu BFG-50, which used 50-caliber bullets after placing the bulletproof vest on the table.

He then placed the bulletproof vest on a table installed in the open range, he also placed a 9inches concrete brick and a wooden block inside the vest. The concrete block and wooden block were placed under the armour in order to understand the effect of the vest and impact of the bullet after it hit.

YouTuber, Edwin Sarkissian, is famous for his gun videos. This time in his new video, Edwin Sarkissian tested a bulletproof vest. The bulletproof vest was specially developed by Safe Life Defense, described as the world’s first 50 caliber bulletproof vest. Ceramic and other confidential materials were used to deveop the vest instead of steel in bulletproof vests. This makes the vest much lighter than it should be. In the video he published, Sarkissian first shared how the bulletproof vest stands on himself. https://www.somagnews.com/youtuber-tried-worlds-top-50-caliber-bulletproof-vest-video/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxyJRGxWN0k

25tolife:Not stylishly. https://history.state.gov/milestones/1866-1898/alaska-purchase |
25tolife:Alaska is very cold, one of the reasons for the low population and i think is also reserved. It has lots of mountains, alps, glaciers but 80% of the land is habitable.

typicalgamer:Alaska is far bigger than Nigeria in land size, almost twice the size of Nigeria. Alaska population is around 700k, you can imagine the size of the empty land mass. |
A film adaptation was released in September 2007, directed by Sean Penn and starring Emile Hirsch as McCandless. This pushed many to hike the dangerous route to the abandoned bus. The bus was airlifted away on Thursday, 18th June, 2020 for safety of tourists. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8438959/Abandoned-bus-famous-Into-The-Wild-removed-Alaskan-authorities.html

Written in 1996 by Jon Krakauer, Into The Wild told a version of 24-year-old Chris McCandless' story. In 1990 the adventurer graduated, gave his $24,500 college fund to Oxfam, cut communication with his parents and began a journey of thousands of miles across Western US. At one point early in his journey McCandless crossed the border into Mexico before hiking back into the US. At Lake Mead he was forced to abandon his car after it got caught in a flash flood, and he labored for months as a grain elevator before hitchhiking more than 3,000 miles to Alaska. In December 1991, McCandless arrived at Slab City, in the Imperial Valley, and met Tracy Tatro (pictured, played by Kristen Stewart), a teenage girl who showed interest in McCandless, but he rejected her because she was underage. McCandless headed down the trail with only 10 pounds (4500 g) of rice, a .22 caliber rifle, several boxes of rifle rounds, a camera, and a small selection of reading materialincluding a field guide to the region's edible plants. He had planned to hike to the coast but the boggy terrain of the summer proved too difficult, and he decided instead to camp in a derelict bus left by a construction company. In July, 1992, he tried to leave after realizing his life would be better with others in it, only to find the route blocked by a snow-melt raging river. He died sometime around the week of August 18, 1992, after surviving more than 100 days on edible roots and berries, as well as an assortment of game. Two weeks after his death, his body was found by moose hunters. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8438959/Abandoned-bus-famous-Into-The-Wild-removed-Alaskan-authorities.html

The bus was made famous by Into The Wild, a book and film that told the story of Chris McCandless' death after he lived inside it for 114 days during the summer of 1992. Its removal on Thursday came after the state was called to 15 bus-related search and rescue operations between 2009 and 2017, according to the Department of Natural Resources. The bus was blamed for encouraging risky hikes as adventurers crossed dangerous terrain trying to find it. Two travelers died after drowning while on their way to the vehicle in separate incidents in 2010 and 2019, officials said. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8438959/Abandoned-bus-famous-Into-The-Wild-removed-Alaskan-authorities.html

* In 1946, the bus was abandoned by construction workers just west of Teklanika River, Alaska. * The 1940s-era bus was made famous by 24-year-old adventurer Chris McCandless who died in it during 1992 summer. A 1940s-era bus where a 24-year-old adventurer starved to death in the Alaskan wilderness has been removed after tourists died while trying to reach it. A US Army helicopter, Chinook airlifted the vehicle from the spot just west of the Teklanika River, where it had been left to rust for more than half a century. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8438959/Abandoned-bus-famous-Into-The-Wild-removed-Alaskan-authorities.html

Only those that followed from part1 - part3 (Fellowship of the Rings, Two Towers and Return of the Kings, almost 10hrs all together) will understand this last scene. They passed through alot. One of the Greatest Adventure movies of all time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHxhTpPo9pk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMWnDC__o4s

MrHighSea:Is normal bro, ive seen people saying Titanic is rubbish. Perception differs. |
Didi2d:You need to see the last scene in part3, The Return of the Kings, after destroying the ring, they were returning home and going sperate ways. Frodo wrote a book, documented the adventure and having a page each for his friends. Enya and her soundtracks didn't even help the matter.

Pearlyakin:@ yusufobinna1 Bros me sef tire for the 98 - 01 camry o and sincerely that's just the market price for the toks. Me sef wan buy, i no fit. Nice toks cost between 1.1m - 1.4m. If you check auctionexport/iaai sites, you see salvage title going for around $1,000 and by the time you pay for additional fees, transportation/towing, shipping, clearing and fixing. You have spent almost or over 1m excluding your profit. I still don't get why the price is like that, over 2decades old. |
