Bullet proof masks?

[Sumthinwicked]

good just watching out for safety

Will do, we've even got an equipt medical staff just in case.

OK, youtube is taking forever to upload it but the video is done and should be up shortly.

Video is up on the first page now.

"We're sorry, this video is no longer available."

Youtube doesn't like you...?

[bryceeden]

It works now.

Very nice video, guys. I thoroughly enjoyed it (especially the camera guy's comments).

That shotgun sure caused some crackage, didn't it.

[Ninjeff]

pretty cool stuff.

I wonder how they hold up from longer distances though. Any reason you chose 5ft.? I dont know squat about real fire arms, so im just curious.


And bryce, nice uniform there.

[bryceeden]

The picture that made me decide to do this was said to have been shot from 5' away. I would have prefered(and been more accurate from) about 15'.

Thanks, I like my uniform too up until I have to run in it

I think what they ment was that the masks were bulletproof if you gently tossed a bullet from 5' away, and by "you" then mean "an infant".

I posted this on PBN and several kids have responded that they've seen videos or whatever and know its true. Of coarse they are all 100% unable to produce links to said videos, but they know V-force said it(which I've still yet to get proof of) so it must be true. I have a new respect for the power of product hype over actual data.

I had Grill and Save Phace lenses we were going to test, but by the time we got to them we already knew the outcome(the Grill lens isn't that much thicker then the Profiler) so we decided we wouldn't waist the lenses to masks we actually use.

hahah nice vid...on a side note

About 2 years ago I shot up an old jt spectre lens i had laying around with a .22 air rifle(pellet gun), It actually stopped it with only small amounts of damage to the lense. Im pretty sure that the muzzle velocity on that gun if i remember correctly was probably around 650 to 750fps, the pellet was a pointed head lead pellet from walmart and i took several shots from about 10ft and 5ft all were repelled.

edit: adjusted time god im getting old!

i would like to see you try it from greater distances. Would be really cool if you could get a "high speed camera" to take some killer slow mo' shots. I'd donate some trashed (read: dirty and scratched) JT and VForce lenses.

Actually, you should just do a whole "bullet proof?" mythbuster style thing. Shoot every thing and see what happens. (in a controlled environment of course).


OKOK i just like seeing what happens when stuff gets shot. Sue me...

[RangerX]

heh the shotgun was my favorite. Cool vid

[paintball72]

for how much?
