  • Today is going to be super exciting.

  • Bulletproof cars have been around for a while.

  • Today we're going to see how durable a bulletproof car really is.

  • We have governments, we have the president of the United States, we have famous people,

  • and a lot of them use bulletproof cars for protection.

  • And today we're going to see how durable the glass is, how durable the paneling is inside

  • those doors, and we're going to do it in real life with real guns.

  • Now if you don't like guns, that's fine, we're also going to focus on the construction of

  • the bulletproof paneling Let's get started.

  • [Intro]

  • Before we destroy anything, let me show you what we're working with.

  • A company called Armor Max here in Utah was nice enough to donate some glass panels for

  • us to shoot.

  • And we have two glass panels here today.

  • One is for a smaller caliber gun, like a little pistol, like a 9 millimeter.

  • And the other piece of glass is for a larger caliber rifle like the one I used in my bump

  • stock video, the AR 15.

  • So it really just depends on how much protection you want for your vehicle.

  • This is the 9mm that we'll be shooting at the glass.

  • And this is the thinner pane.

  • And then over here we have the AR 15 with the bump stock attached.

  • We're just going to be shooting single rounds today though.

  • You can see the larger caliber here, and how thick the pane of glass is compared to the

  • lower caliber.

  • But really all of this stuff is completely customizable.

  • Like the president's motorcade here in the United States uses about double this thickness

  • of glass inside.

  • It really just depends on how much protection you want, and how much you're willing to spend.

  • As far as weight goes, when they're bulletproofing a car with the smaller caliber, you know,

  • bulletproofing it for a hand gun, it usually adds anywhere from 400-500 pounds give or

  • take the protection you want.

  • But if you're going to fully rifle proof your car, you can add anywhere from 500 all they

  • way up to maybe 12 or 13 hundred.

  • Your gas mileage might go down slightly, but sometimes that's a good trade off for the

  • protection it offers.

  • So gun ranges are actually pretty cool.

  • So right here we have different slots.

  • Gun safety is a pretty big thing when you're at a gun range.

  • Each of these little cubicles keep, you know, the bullets that are ejected out of the gun,

  • they keep it from hitting your neighbor.

  • And then as we walk down range...right now it's safe because there's no one out shooting

  • in here.

  • This is one of the pieces of glass that we're going to be shooting at.

  • So we have it propped up.

  • We have some of these little green targets right here just so we have something to aim

  • at while we're shooting.

  • And then we also have one little melon right behind it.

  • So if the bullet goes through the bulletproof glass, which it shouldn't, we'll know for

  • sure.

  • Now down here at the end of the range is something that not a lot of people see.

  • This is what directs the bullets into this channel down here at the end so that they

  • can recycle all of those bullet tips because there's a lot of metal in a bullet and it's

  • always good to recycle.

  • So you can see here all of these little markings are little bullets that have hit this metal

  • panel right here and then rickashayed up there into that little slot so they can collect

  • them and recycle them.

  • Alright, so we're going to start with the 9mm hand gun first.

  • We're going to shoot that pane of glass right down there.

  • Let's do it.

  • [Gunshot] Oh man!

  • That looks sweet.

  • Let's go take a closer look.

  • Check this out!

  • Oh man, that's so cool.

  • You can see the impact point right here.

  • You can see a little bit of remnants of like the metal in the tip of the bullet.

  • And then it like absorbed the impact and fractured all the way around this outside.

  • So here on the backside it's still 100% completely smooth.

  • My fingers aren't catching on any of the glass layers on the back of this.

  • If you are sitting inside of this car with this window, you would still be totally fine.

  • Now these layers of bulletproof glass are actually layers of glass and plastic stuck

  • together.

  • So it will actually be interesting to see what kind of penetration we can get when we

  • start shooting the rifle on the AR 15.

  • But half an inch stopping a bullet...that's pretty impressive.

  • So we have the cameras set up and our safety gear on.

  • We're going to shoot that same piece of glass a couple more times with the 9mm and see how

  • well it stands up to multiple shots.

  • Alight, so safety gear is on.

  • I imagine if you're being shot at inside of a car it's not going to be just one bullet.

  • There are going to be multiple.

  • So I'm going to empty this full magazine into the glass and see what happens.

  • Ready?

  • [Gunshots] Sweet!

  • That was fun.

  • Okay, so check this out.

  • It looks like I hit this part multiple times.

  • I think there was an impact point here, here, here, here and here.

  • As the outside structure of the glass is compromised, it removes the outer layer but the inner layers

  • are still fine.

  • You can see like this divot right here.

  • If the glass is an inch thick, this probably went through about half an inch of that but

  • it still survived...I mean how many shots was that, like 6?

  • So if we go back here to the back of the glass, you know, feeling the back of it, there's

  • nothing catching on my hand, but as I move my hand over this I can feel like a slight

  • indention and I imagine that's like the plastic layer bulging out just a tiny bit.

  • Ummm, agh!

  • [Dan] Yeah, careful, I just did that.

  • [Zack] I got glass in my finger.

  • Alright, so we're not going to touch the glass anymore.

  • When the bullet hits, there's so much energy in that bullet, it impacts the glass obviously,

  • and the glass distributes the impact over the whole thing.

  • So not everything you see in Hollywood it truthful because if a bullet hits a car it's

  • going to shatter the exterior layer of the ballistic glass at least.

  • Alright, so we have a new glass in place and this one is an inch and a half thick, so it's

  • going to need the AR 15, the higher caliber bullet.

  • And we'll see if that melon survives.

  • Alright, so the safety is now off.

  • And full disclosure, I have not sighted this gun, so if I miss first shot...

  • [Gunshot] Oh wow!

  • Okay, so that was pretty sweet.

  • So the impact of that bullet hit right here in the center and we can already see...like

  • this is an inch and a half thick.

  • You can also see the divot from the glass, you know, separating from the point of impact.

  • The energy, instead of going forward, it immediately stops the forward energy and disperses it

  • in the outward glass.

  • And these cracks look freaking incredible.

  • And this is the size of the bullet that hit that center impact part, right there.

  • And I think this is one of those plastic layers inside.

  • Let's see if we have any damage on the back.

  • That's sweet.

  • There's no damage on the back of this thing.

  • So if you were sitting inside of this car, you would be completely safe from someone

  • shooting an AR 15 at your window.

  • So everything that's manufactured has like a rating to it.

  • So this piece of glass is certified for 5 bullets, but Armor Max has shot this thing

  • 20 times and it still survived which is pretty darn impressive.

  • So we just finished shooting the ballistic glass.

  • We're still going to shoot some of the ballistic armor panels here in a second, but let's check

  • out the laboratory of Armor Max first and see how all of this stuff is put together.

  • And there's actually quite a lot that goes into this.

  • So this stuff right here, this is like a little bomb proof blanket that can actually sit down

  • underneath the carpet inside of the car.

  • So like if a grenade or something is rolled underneath the vehicle, you know, it's full

  • of kevlar and stuff and stops the explosion from coming up inside of the cab.

  • Now normally, when you're sitting inside of a car, you're hidden and protected by the

  • door and the window.

  • So that's like one of the most important parts of bulletproofing a car is the glass and the

  • door panels.

  • So this is a land cruiser right here, and this is the bulletproof glass, the same stuff

  • that we were shooting at earlier.

  • You can kind of tell how thick this panel is.

  • But because of the weight of the bulletproof glass, they actually have to stick new motors

  • inside of the door.

  • So these are specialized motors that can lift the 60 pound slab of glass.

  • So the slab of glass will protect the top half of the person, and the rest of the door

  • is fitted with these bulletproof panels here inside.

  • We haven't shot any of these panels yet, but I'll make sure we get a chance before we leave.

  • So we talked about how to protect the driver inside, and now here in the front, protecting

  • the engine is another important concept.

  • So here we have bulletproof panels that are set at an angle and go all the way down in

  • front of the radiator cuz the radiator is what keeps the engine cool.

  • And if you're radiator is bleeding out then your car is not going to go very far.

  • So these bulletproof panels right here are pretty important.

  • There's also the same bulletproof panels that we have inside of the metal panels here inside

  • of this, as well as protecting the firewall between the engine and the passenger compartment.

  • And then here we have a few more bulletproof panels protecting the battery, cuz also without

  • the battery you're not going to be going very far.

  • Another bulletproof panel here protecting the air intake.

  • And inside of the tires they have something called a run flat, which is basically a metal

  • band on the rim of the tire that sticks up past the rim.

  • So even if there's no air in your tire and the tire's technically flat, you'll still

  • be able to drive on that metal rim inside of the actual tire.

  • So like I mentioned before, there are a couple different packages that Armor Max offers.

  • And so this is one of them here.

  • It's like an optional piece.

  • This has that like bulletproofing rounds cuz this is one of the weakest points when a door

  • is closed that if bullet pierces right here your head is still going to be on the other

  • side.

  • So this just adds another layer of protection.

  • You'll have bulletproof glass on the windshield.

  • For that 20-25,000 dollars all of the main things will be protected, you know, you inside

  • of the cab.

  • But it can go anywhere from 70,000 all the way up to the top with Armor piercing rounds

  • and stuff like that.

  • It has, remember that 2 inch thick piece of glass?

  • If you have that installed in your door panel, obviously the windows aren't going to work

  • anymore, but that's the most protection that you can have while you're driving.

  • So one of the things when you're adding so much more weight to the vehicle, like those

  • panes of glass weigh a lot, it's anywhere from 500 to 1,000 pounds, maybe a little over

  • that.

  • Sometimes they have to upgrade the suspension as well.

  • So this suspension is calibrated for the extra weight and it will still ride the same, you

  • know, just as smooth as a stock vehicle, even though this one's completely bulletproof.

  • So this isn't a sponsored video, I just thought it was pretty cool technology.

  • And this company, Armor Max, has been in business for over 25 years.

  • They've had over 250 known attacks on their vehicles but no one has died from being shot

  • through the Armor on their vehicles.

  • So it's pretty good stuff.

  • But it's also interesting to know that this stuff does happen.

  • Like there are dangerous places in the world.

  • So seeing how the technology is able to protect people is pretty interesting.

  • If everyone could just be nice to each other, companies like this wouldn't need to exist.

  • But since there's niceness problems in the world, here we are.

  • This car right behind me actually has electrified door handles.

  • Dan doesn't know yet, from the YouTube channel What's Inside.

  • So I'm going to tell him to open up the door to see what's inside of the car and see what

  • happens.

  • See what he says about the steering wheel.

  • [Dan] Oh!

  • Is this the shock door?

  • Is this this shock door?!

  • Ahhh!

  • You almost got me!

  • [Zack] Do it anyway, do it anyway!

  • [Dan] I don't want to get shocked!

  • [Zack] You gotta do it!

  • [Dan] I'm going in!

  • Is it going to hurt?

  • [Zack] It's going to hurt.

  • [Dan] I can't do it!

  • Ahh!

  • Okay, I feel it, I feel it!

  • It shocked me!

  • [Zack] So there was a button back here that he just pushed...no way, check this out!

  • So this is like...you can drop this behind you like if someone's chasing your car.

  • That's hilarious.

  • So literally, if someone's chasing you, you can drop this little compartment in the back

  • and these things fall out.

  • They will like puncture the tires of all the cars that are behind you.

  • That's awesome.

  • So it's pretty sweet.

  • So one of these buttons right here, he just had them labeled, so one of them is dropping

  • the tacks, you know, the things in the road.

  • And the other one, this is the one that electrifies the door handles.

  • So obviously as the car is driving these will be bouncing on the road behind and disperse

  • all over the lanes, and then this box right here just folds up and clicks shut.

  • Now he's got to figure out how to stick these all back in there and get it locked and loaded

  • for the next guy.

  • Okay, so since Dan wouldn't really grab the doorknob, I'm going to give it a shot.

  • I've been tased before with that little case, but I think this one's a little bit higher

  • voltage and I am super nervous right now.

  • This is not something I planned on doing today.

  • Are we good?

  • Did you get it?

  • Okay, so I felt a tingle from the tip of my finger all the way up to about here.

  • So I'm going to try it again.

  • Oo yeah.

  • You can feel it all the way up your arm.

  • It's stronger than that cell phone case that I reviewed a while back, you know, the taser

  • cell phone case.

  • It's not something I want to do for a long period of time.

  • When the car is actually turned on and the engine is running, there's way more current

  • going through that.

  • So what I was able to do right there would be completely different if the car was on.

  • So here's a close up shot of those electrified door handles.

  • You can see the copper strips on the inside.

  • So any time someone just reaches in and grabs these, grabbing the copper, it will jolt their

  • whole arm...like you saw earlier.

  • Alright, so we've seen the cars and we've seen the glass, now we're going to shoot at

  • some of the Armor Max paneling that goes inside of the car doors.

  • Now this stuff is lighter than steel, which makes it ideal for putting in cars because

  • the more weight you have in a car, the more the gas mileage goes down and the slower it

  • gets.

  • So lightweight cars are good.

  • But this stuff is actually so light that they've stuck it in helicopters, the ones in South

  • Africa, the anti-poaching helicopters, which is pretty sweet.

  • So this piece right here is for the larger caliber rifles, but we also have this smaller

  • piece of Armor Max material that stops 9mm hand guns.

  • So let's shoot both of these right now and see what happens.

  • So this square panel, this is the Armor Max 3.3, it's the same stuff they stuck on the

  • anti-poaching helicopters.

  • We're going to shoot it with a 9mm and see what happens.

  • Let's try it out.

  • [Gunshot]

  • So the bullet traveled, punctured into here and then traveled up inside of it.

  • Because apparently there are 156 different laminate layers inside of this thing keeping

  • the bullets from penetrating to the important stuff on the other side of the material.

  • So we're going to empty the rest of the magazine inside of my 9mm and see what happens with

  • the rest of the bullets.

  • And then we'll switch to the bigger caliber guns.

  • Alright, so there are about 5 more shots in this.

  • We're going to put all of them straight into the material and see what it looks like after

  • we're done.

  • [Gunshots]

  • That is crazy.

  • It looks like there is absolutely no damage done to this, but you can see tiny little

  • pinpricks where each of the bullets hit.

  • And all of the bullets have been captured inside of the material.

  • That's a 9mm bullet, you know, the smaller ones.

  • Now we're going to try the AR 15, and that should make a mark.

  • Okay, so this is the AR 15.

  • The safety is now off.

  • Let's see what happens.

  • [Gunshots]

  • So looking at the outside, seriously, there are seriously no marks on the material which

  • is like incredible.

  • But here on the backside you can see a small little divot where the bullet hit.

  • So it's just like this little tiny bulge.

  • Personally, I would feel super safe inside of a helicopter or a car with this lightweight

  • material inside of it protecting against the bullets.

  • Even with an AR 15, stopping that much power is incredible.

  • So this piece of material is rated, you know, within a 5 inch radius it can be shot 3-5

  • times and still maintain it's structural integrity.

  • But when you're in a moving vehicle and somebody is shooting at you, which does happen, Armor

  • Max has had cars with like 100 shots in them.

  • The bullets are all spread out.

  • Like no one's going to consistently shoot in one spot over and over again.

  • So overall today was a pretty fun day.

  • You know, shooting guns is always a fun hobby for me, and whether you like guns or you don't

  • like guns, it's still fun to see the science and technology behind armored cars and armored

  • helicopters.

  • I did not know that they armored those and anti-poaching helicopters in Africa.

  • If you have any questions, leave them down in the comments.

  • I'm sure I could be back here later to answer those questions or to blow up something else.

  • Come hang out with me on Instagram and Twitter.

  • And thanks a ton for watching.

  • I'll see you around.

Today is going to be super exciting.
