Very true

+Kuro Neko Such Doge

yes!

hahahaha

100%

Omg this is actually too funny, most people who aren't in the military wont get it though. Made my day right there.

OntarioBushman Not sure if sarcasm, or genuine compliment...

It's a compliment. Your comment was funny.

They also didn't do good PMCS on his vehicle and their risk assessment hadn't been filled out property. The whole situation was an accident waiting to happen basically.

And he didn't receive the safety brief.

Lol. The intimidation bonus on daedric armor is nice too. Though some people still insist on running their mouth. They usually learn at the end of a matching sword.

Not sure it could stop a bullet but it would scare the shit out of most people charging at them in that

+Christopher Paffrath Wearing enchanted Daedric armor and holding a flaming great sword first kid in town " I thought adventerers are supposed to look tough"

"I used to be an adventurer like you,then I took a bullet to the knee"

+Bartek Bierbasz good one

The fear of seeing the enemy get back up from a bullet that large is almost palpable.

okay u got the call right but it probably went like this: yaseen see that amerci'? lets kill him *fires sniper* ooh my god hes up allahhuakbar god yiur the greatest pls save me!

LMAO, I was thinking the same thing! Sniper fail! " AHHH yes the AMAZING AKMEAD have got another one..oh yes I am the greatest sniper in the worl....wait what what the hell! DAMN IT I knew I should have stuck to suicide bombings. "

Yup that's why you can take only 1-2 rounds before you really want to put new plates in and why ar500 armor is superior but ways a little more

Jason Flessner ar 500 weighs a shitload more and you shouldn't be standing there letting them empty their machineguns on you

And yet you both forgot Dragon skin or Dragon armor member that but since they talked trash on the sappy plate they got banned from selling their equipment to the military mercenaries and private contractors could get it. They showed a full mag through an AK four mag through an AR 15 and then they put a grenade on it remember

Jason Flessner "you can take only 1-2 rounds before you really want to put new plates in" Sapi's should always be replaced after any hit as the plate is then compromised. That being said I have personally seen sapi plates that have stopped as many and more than a dozen rounds. THAT being said, you should only ever be hit once and then you get your ass behind cover so you don't get hit again. and finally THAT being said, don't get hit in the first place. ar500 is a fuck ton heavier then our standard interceptor plates

5 things the host doesn't know about body armor.

I've heard that was specifically an issue with similar types of armor. I dunno about Brewster though, probably.

Looks like it. I'm sure at least 1 test was done where the user took a round to the arm.

better than taking it in the vitals

considering battlefield medicine of that day, not really :( I'd rather take one to the head

Tregeta Very true. At that time, I'd rather take an 8mm round to the heart or center mass than bleed out while wearing that steel plate for 4 minutes.

*id

they should have developed real creepers... like the ones in minecraft

Yeah, I think they did... currently popular in the Middle East. They even fixed the hissing problem, apparently it goes away if you add obsessive prayer.

weaponized turtles huh? the first thing i thought of were koopa troopas

you'd soon learn how to throw a grenade just the right distance in front of them to go off just as they went over it.

🇨🇦Convinced wwiii was popping off after watching the feb24 invasion of Ukraine on the news, I immediately had a ssab steel fabricator make up a couple plates for me out of hardox500 & paired that up with some short looped pile commercial carpet for an antispall layer on the strike face 🛡️

What is even funnier is the guy shot was a medic, and he later treated the guy that shot him when he got hit himself.

Cory Pridgen That's why we're the good guys (US/UN and NATO forces), and they are not.

xXSgtWolfXx There are no good guys. Don't be naive.

Shadow0510 Would an insurgent treat a US soldier? No.

xXSgtWolfXx By the true definition of the term "insurgent," foreign military troops are the insurgents. More importantly, I didn't say that the "enemy" is, was, will be, or ever has been the good guy. I simply said that the "US/UN and NATO forces" are not good guys either.

Cody Mann he didn't have to say it 20 times seriously Allahu Akbar 20X times just becomes comedic

+Ragnn Grmann maybe killing a man is not that easy and he needs gods approval for the horrible thing he was doing.

+Ragnn Grmann Jesus and Amen are repeated just about as much in any church I´ve ever been to so far.

+Cody Mann but why would an insurgent release a failed assassination attempt though?

Liou David They didn´t...they got captured and the footage with them.

i thought he made that clear

No he didn't he said he was wearing a Kevlar vest

+Scrinian see #4...he refers to the "rig" he's wearing. Saying it contains sapi plates made of "kevlar"...(which is incorrect), but can stop an Ak fired as close as 10ft...which is true.

Yeah i can agree with you there i just wish it was worded better.

Kevlar can stop 308 and 408 dude so depending on the level. 1A 2A 3A 4A

Doesnt matter cuz very rarely do u worry about a guy charging you with a knife. It could happen im sure but really isnt common enough. This aint CoD where ppl run and get one hit knife kills left and right.

+TheBadbro12 It could be a funny slogan for Kevlar: "Making bayonet charges popular once again"

+TheBadbro12 This video says '5 things you didn't know'. Maybe you knew, but I'm sure tons of people don't know about kevlar being a fabric that can only stop bullets but nothing else.

Bojan Zigic Thats a good one.

+TheBadbro12 Just saw what an arrow does to modern body armor - check out Modern crossbow vs body armor ;)

+Hans Peters shut up himmler

***** LeL.

+aplayaz2000 top kek

+Hans Peters LMFAO!!! HE PROBABLY THOUGHT HE PULLED IT OFF FLAWLESSLY!!

+stewarthayden Since it's german who cares. The language will be dead in 50 years.

+edmTriumvirate Body armor from the American Civil War predates that.

he said the most successful body armor in america

+Lolek/Plasica/edmStuff Some Medieval knights would probably beg to differ.

Jonathan Rogers Ok let me corect my mistake, first "bulletproof vest", is that ok now ?

+Lolek/Plasica/edmStuff Yes that is correct. But more precise term would be 'ballistic vest' (which is closer to 'bullet resistant' than 'bulletproof'). And for the notice, this wasn't the first ballistic vest, but it was first with confirmed success in saving life. Most of the prizes Jan Szczepanik received was his work with photography and sculpture technique.

Most likely you wouldn’t be able to

@@krajax6875 He seems to know more than these people...

+Bran Phillips look at that armor think you can crawl up out of an 8-10 foot deep trnch in it? and carry and successfully use a rifle while wearing it? I have seen footage of them testing them in trenches made in the US at testing grounds. With out a ladder ( which were NOT used when attacking en masse from a trench) it is almost impossible but by the time you get out of the trench the enemy has either moved or is on your position and you would be too tired to fight.

+Joe “Wolf” Dawson Those creeper tanks seem pretty effective though, any sort of mobile cover would be excellent for pushing a front line.

chriscos123 That was what I was referring to. Not the body armor, but the creeper tanks.

Yeah they do seem to work pretty good...

Bear in mind the test was run on relatively smooth grassed field. Try pushing that across 100-200 yards or more of obstacle and debris littered mud. If it was deployed, the likely response would be to put barrages of artillery (or mortars) on on the advancing line or even the trench line since the creepers didn't look to be easily deployed and would be quite obvious. Don't forget you lose command and control over your force when the troops are busy struggling to push those along.

+Gahlok12 hehe xD

those ideas are HELLA stupid

+Gahlok12 The inventor knew it wouldn't work but he thought the Generals needed a laugh break

+Grahame Nicholson yeah I guess so and I had a typo.

Looked like something outa charlie chaplin hehe

+TheArnoldification really racist comment about any person you can think of

TheWatcher _ I really don't think "racist" is the right word. Remember that pretty much 95% of the time that's an abusable cover-up for minorities so they don't have to cope with their own shortcomings. Derrogatory comments towards specific kinds of people also isn't necessarily racist. For example, I wouldn't necessarily classify a joke about black people as racist on it's own because jokes usually aren't vitriolic, but manipulative of their subject matter (as a joke at it's core is just unexpected absurdity.)

TheArnoldification you can make racist jokes all you want in my opinion, because... *they're just jokes!* but racism is a thing, as in not getting jobs because you are black/asian/whatever or things like that

TheWatcher _ That's really not true either. Ever notice when people throw around those sob stories, they never give sufficient context so the third party can make an educated decision on the matter? It's because minorities use "oppression" and "racism" to their advantage. That in of itself is corrupt. Legitimate oppression or racism is actually pretty rare in developed countries. If you want to see examples of legitimate oppression or racism then visit developing countries. Trust me, it's almost always bullshit.

TheArnoldification it happens. I never said it happens much

In the neck actually. He died a few minutes after his wife who was hit by a ricochet in the stomach. Thank you history class!

Just another reason why globalism is so dangerous. It started both world wars and every proxy war thereafter.

Angle Earlier that day, they threw a hand grenade in his car that failed to go off. You'd think he'd at least lay low for a while.

+Dave Smith And also made the world experience a piece of more of 70 years and allowed us to develop thongs that out ancestors would not even dream of!

+911LexVegas Exactly.

Taliban or Al Qaeda, ISIS wasn't a threat back in 2004

oh

Talk about a lack of historical knowledge.

sorry one slip up

We all make them from time to time.

do you know the answer to the question???

I was thinking the same thing. Kudos.

BizzarFish1 Plus the sniper usually use 7.62x54r and not 7.62x39

Herrdesrings He was shot with a Handgun... (FN Model 1910) and i think you have the wrong comment string aswell XD!

BizzarFish1 I believe it was a 32acp. A very low powered round. I think one of my silk shirts could stop it. JK

Steve McCormick awww don't dis. I've got a colt 32. Good stuff.

That's it, you solves the puzzle. If the troops over seas would just wear PT belts on patrol we would have no more casualties.

Taticallyfluffy Marine I know you said it as sarcasm.....but you would be surprised how many car accidents our troops have.

Too right mate, the "inventor" of that body armour took the Kelly gangs design and make it impractical and ugly. plus he did not even correct the "weak points' of the original design ie the exposed arms and legs.

You forgot to attribute your quote to Gunner Ferrik Jurgen, and it ends, "...and faith in the Emperor." Commisar Cain is disappointed in you.

AnimeSunglasses Holy crap! I haven't never heard of no Gunner Ferrik Jurgen. I am sorry about disappointing Mr. Cain, but thanks for the info. I'll hafta check it out!

Ohhh, you're in for a treat! Read the Ciaphas Cain novels by Sandy Mitchell. They're set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe, but I would happily recommend them to anyone who likes military fiction even the littlest bit!

AnimeSunglasses Ok, thanks!

best body armor ..is PEACE.

Kevlar is the softbody armour that implemented in the back of the ar500 in case of penetration or you use Kevlar only for pistol defence.

rly?

rly?

thegamingdovah yeah

Yeah, The Hellcat!

This guy serious? Has he not listened every bad guy in every movie every made?

+ung427 Basically nothing much...they chant allahu akbar for a while until the PFC called for backup and two vehicles roll towards the location of the shooter, which was a hollowed out car with a hole in a door. They then try to drive off but the engine doesn´t start. It finally starts and they roll off being pursued by two humvees...they didn´t get far. Oh and yeah, it was two dudes, a shooter and his getaway driver/spotter.

There's armor made of both

There are level IIIA trauma plates that are given to wear under soft armor to reduce blunt force trauma and thats about it.

Fuck off Rick, we know your not the real one

kevlar is ceramic plates actually

Rocky Buttclench some plates don't have ceramic it's only Kevlar .... why did you call him retarded when you are wrong .. they use Kevlar (only Kevlar ) for low caliber rounds and can stop up to a 44 magnum since its a lot of Kevlar and it's woven tightly with it hardened to stop the bullet they only use ceramic to break the bullet so the Kevlar will catch the fragments

Well, let's see... The main threat was fragmentation. Even a flak jack would reduce casualties. A set of something like SN42 enmasse would make SMGs hard pressed to cause damage.

Took the words right out of my mouth.

You can find plates that are bulletproof but it's a slab of titanium you're supposed to put behind the Kevlar it's heavy but it's strong bulletproof but they are super expressive

or simply get Ar500 steel plates...

+Jacob Beaumont steel is heavier and weaker than titanium it might be cheaper but it takes a lot less to do the same

+Blayne “Ghost” Peterson you stupid? Ar500 is stronger, just a bit hebier. AR550 is the best.

Max S.F. armour piercing perk.....does more damage to armoured target

It's the change of force that kills people on many things, like car accidents and what not.

+Cesar Sanchez That's right. If you can increase the time interval that the force is applied over then you increase your chances of survival.

+Deadlyaztec27 The challenge here is that you're trying to do that on a compact accessory.

+Cesar Sanchez True, but it's not as difficult as it sounds. The straps in construction helmets to the exact same thing.

If it were dangerous like that it would be more or less equally dangerous just to fire a gun (re: law of motion 2). A bullet doesn't have so much force as to send you flying back when it hits you.

As did I we r weird together do u to find it funny how many comments people leave where they clear are ilinformed and have no real idea what they are talking about that pisses me off does it you

Not necessarily. Depends on the design of the vest.

ConcealedArtLeather your are correct (to funny). I didn't catch it until I was reading your comment and went back to see the video again. Whomever put the rig together, put the pouches on the opposite side. The drag handle is supposed to be on the back and if you look at the back of the current set up in the video, those 2 raised area's on the shoulder are for the quick release buckles and where the emergency release cable goes through, to release the entire rig from the operator in the event of immediate medical care. Good eye.

that is the quick release handle, not the drag handle.

jmiyagisan ConcealedArtLeather The vest is a CIRAS Maritime and that is the quick-release tab in case you need to rapidly remove the armor off you (i.e vest catching fire or drowning)

Question: What's holding his rifle? Doesn't look like a sling.

There's nothing that can really be done there. Sorry, but you can keep fighting with a missing nad. Can't keep fighting with a baseball size hole in your chest.

Getting shot in the balls is a real problem.That's why US is working on a project for regenerating nuts in wounded soldiers. Which other country thinks of that?

Modern day plate carriers that are issued to our Armed Forces have a deattachable sections for the upper arms, back below the waist, and the groin area. these are only designed to stop fragmentation. Imagine running with the crotch piece on and having a heavy plate swinging and hitting you there. It might not stop a bullet, but some protection is better than shrapnel in your balls. To answer your question though, life would not be worth living though without your balls... I do agree...

I doubt there are military rifle rounds that make a baseball size hole in you.

You would be disinterested in women and could pursue science without distraction. When one door closes others open.

It's hardened Kevlar. Not the fabric kind.

Raging Agent this isnt even some hardened kevlar. this sapi plate is plate which have level IV balistic protection. that means that this plate is made from ceramic plate and behind it is antifragmentation insert. hope you under stood it 🙂

Rising Awareness III it's hardened and thicker Kevlar and they normally have some sort of ceramic to break the bullet and has the Kevlar catch it ... I would rather trust a metal plate but hey that's only me

nice lol

Yea........small circle plate around the chest...........180 defends for female.............full body armour for male.........100 defends.....yeay

nd u can c de boobis

+Alfredo Briseno i wouldn't really rely on it that was probably "at the best" a dragunov from out of it's killer range XD

+tayeb mabruk whats wrong with a dragunov

it's kinda weaker than most of the snipers with much lesser range ?

hmm i didn't know that. they seem to be used a lot in middle east

here 2 in libya but not cuz they're efficient when it comes to the fire power....buuut they are aloooot cheaper and the ammo is way more common... and unlike most of the other firearms u can really shoot from anywhere and it won't jam ,and u know how dusty those areas are ,

+Michael V They are. The plates themselves. There's also kevlar.

+Michael V It's a common misconception, The actual plates are made using various materials including: Metals, Ceramics, Kevlar, and sometimes even Plastics. The different Types of plates are used to defend against a wide variety of threats. For example, A steel backed SAPI plate will stop some rifle rounds, but you risk Fragments injuring to Wearer. That's why they use several different materials and layer them, Softer materials on the outside to slow the bullet and catch fragments, with harder materials as the center to provide the stopping power. Either way, you're still going to feel it, the energy transfer alone is going to leave some serious bruises, and possibly break bones if the round in a high enough caliber. EX: Dragonscale armor, Which uses several ioverrlaping plates, is rated to stop a .50 calliber round, but the wearer would still die from the pure kinetic transfer, which would cause fatal internal injuries, and Possibly liquefy organs. Not a fun way to go.

+Jacob L

***** The kinetic trauma would cause internal bleeding, and basically liquify organs

+Jacob L how can it stop a .50

eyy buddy sorry to tell you they still havent made any

Besides i dont think 3rd world militias have access to such modified bullets like the modern militaries such as Russia and America

Lel. Project Pitman.

I thought it was because silk vests were made to stop black powder firearms at long distance and it didn't work since cartridge-using firearms fire there projectiles at much higher speeds

+john fisher No, Ferdinand didn't wear his ballistic vest at that day. And to be more precise, at day of his death, his assassins were planning of blowing his car (they threw bomb aiming it to land inside his car, but it bounced off and fell into mob; shooting was improvised later).

yea the guy that threw the bomb actually ran into him by accident after the failed attempt if i remember right

+chris feltner Yeah Gavillo Princip was having lunch at a cafe when the driver took a wrong turn so he got to make the kill. Thing is Franz (not Frans) Ferdinand was actually in favour of Serbian independence

+chris feltner Fun fact the the guy throwing the bomb, later try to suicide by taking cyanide and jumping into a river, what he didnt know was that the river was only 11mm deep
