the bullet wasn't stopped, it was just deflected, no? that's how it looked in the gif.

This leads me to believe that the best cover in a home would be an aquarium. Ill go buy one

I think the last balloon catches the bullet.

Those look like some industrial strength balloons.

Mythbusters did something like this with shooting into water. If I recall correctly they said that if you are about 3 feet under water you would be perfectly safe. They even shot a .50 and it basically disintegrated the bullet as soon as it hit the water.

didn't look deflected to me. Just looks like it was just slowed down

Very cool. I'm going to have to do this.

To make it more interesting, have Alx stand behind the 4th balloon.

I couldn't do that to Alx, but I know several that I may try to talk into it after they've had a few.

What do you have to take cover with for any shots after the first one?

try that with some dollar store balloons, and I bet its a different outcome.

i bet i can slice all balloons with a samurai sword, so i got more force than a bullet?
Posted on 2/25/15 at 11:41 am to Shexter
For some strange reason, my testicles hurt after watching that.

.44 Magnum shot at gallon milk jugs
