It’s a good video but your lack of safety is shocking. You're shooting guns at iron pans without anything protecting you. If one of those shots bounced off the pan wrong you could have accidentally shot yourself. Edit: I want to clarify that even though the chance of him getting injured in this video is low, there is still a possibility. Guns are dangerous (duh) and all it takes is one small mistake to get seriously hurt. It's important that when doing any sort of tests with guns (especially against hard flat surfaces made of concrete, rock, or metal) you minimize the risk of injury as much as possible. It's better to be safe than sorry.
Gotta remember, your cast iron isn't 'secure' it's loose, meaning there will be reverb/recoil when the cast iron is hit. And as others have mentioned, after each shot you need to replace the pans that were damaged.
One of my hobbies is finding old cast iron skillets that aren't warped or abused and restoring them to like new. If you drop a cast iron skillet on a hard surface you can crack it. In my opinion what is happening is that the cast iron has a brittle tension and cracks with sharp edges. I think the bullets once contacting and starting to penetrate the cast iron first skillet let the sharpness of the brakes is shredding the pistol rounds so they're just fragments flying off the second skillet.
@@omeganexus5449 it would stop on the first Lasers shooting through metal are extremely ineffective, especially if that metal is shiny Much energy gets refracted and bounced away. And if you want to almost completely render lasers useless, just get a mirror. This is why lasers stay science fiction and aren't used in real world applications for combat. They are only effective if you can keep them on target and firing for long periods of time to transfer enough energy to the material to melt it. The amount of energy it takes to propel solid mass through an object will almost always be less than the amount of energy it takes to melt an object. This is especially true if the target you're trying to melt with a laser is polished tungsten, good luck with that
Professor Moyo have you ever shot a gun? Or do you just throw your bullets at the target? Please explain how shooting a target and throwing darts is equal
You should ALWAYS shoot pans that are new instead of shooting pans with holes in them. Replace the ones with holes with pans from the rear. The pans with holes are compromised (weakened) by previous shots.
Fun video. The bullet performance was actually not surprising. Bullets have to be designed for metal penetration to be successful in this test. All of the bullets in this test were designed to penetrate and expand in human flesh. That they did not overpenetrate is a safe way for bullets like this to perform. I like the "I'M READY!' just before every test.😆👍👍 Great spent cartridge/shell catching too. Damn hard to shoot off center when we all go to the range to shoot dead center. Much respect.
On a more accurate note like many mention, do another video with the cast iron properly secure (no movement) & change the cast iron after each round as the integrity of the pan maybe compromise when it was shot before. And please try a 50cal in the next round, will be interesting to know how many it went through. Great Video 👍
You should had replaced the first skillet every time switching calibers, because the resistance of the materials got altered, then the experiment is incorrect.
Enjoyed the video and agree with many of the comments about the movement of the targets and the need to replace them with new ones. My wife said anybody who shoots these very expensive, good quality skillets needs his head examined. Not my money, not my skillets, I enjoyed the demonstration.

Your mom: Earlier I asked him where my skillets are, he said "in my room making an iron man suit". The Therapist: I know you're frustrated. Raising an autistic child is challenging.
I once shot a beer bottle 30 feet away with a bb pistol and a piece of glass hit me in the chest. I didnt mind moving as I saw it coming and it didn’t hurt, but I wouldn’t put my trust in a bullet hitting a skillet.
Not saying it couldn't happen, but the skillets are angled upwards and sitting loose, which means they'll tip back even more when struck, driving the reflection angle even higher. My totally inexpert opinion lol
Not if they're standing far enough back. Bullets can only ricochet if the angle isn't too tight. It would be impossible for the force of the bullet to instantly change direction and go straight backwards.
Its about weight and velocity. Rifle rounds penetrate with speed not weight, and not to mention the first cast iron deforms the bullet. It no longer has a cone tip and will struggle without any weight behind it. Once their speed drops off they can be easily defeated by a durable material. Handgun rounds are slower, but have more mass. Thats why the .500 magnum did the best because it had the most of mass and speed.
Bingo! after reading comments finally got to one where someone understands! I thought watching was a waist of time after I seen ammo he was using. Bullet was vaporizing on first hit. His first clues was when he could find no pieces
I think what you have set up is more of demo of armor designed to have flexibility in order to slow a round or shell down. Tankers in WWII Sherman's used logs, spare bogies, tank treads hung on the front and side of their tank to provide a moving surface that would take up the initial impact of a German round and hopefully just make a dent in the armor instead of a hole, or detonate an exploding shell. The fact that the skillets give way on impact is changing everything about this experiment.
Nice shooting, but I'm commenting because of your outstanding range discipline. Calling "fire in the hole" before shooting, and immediately clearing your weapon after shooting, and announcing "clear", are two things I wish my countrymen would embrace. Well done.

they wouldve gone through more if it was just a block of cast iron, this had the effect of spaced armor to an extent so the bullets had a harder time penetrating

“Coulda, woulda, shoulda”. This was an excellent video, answering our questions. Looks like 3 stacked together would stop the likely guns that could be used against you. The odds of someone not having the 50 caliber are pretty good. Yes it might have been a tiny bit better if the pans were held by a rigid frame devise., rotated , used twenty or more calibers, but this ,so far appears to be the best video available, and much better than the video that you critical nit picker commenters produced for us.
Test could be a lot more accurate if skillets were not reused once damaged and all of them were at the same angle, not to mention shootin' distance. But Enjoy!!
@@boomboom241 I didn't say that the skillets are replaced. All the bullets were hitting skillets without missing that's why I said he is professional shooter or edited the part when bullet didn't hit the skillets
I'm surprised the hollow point went through at all. They're not designed for penetration so much as splaying out and shrapnelling the target's insides.
