How Strong is a Solid Block of LEAD? 

This deserves a high speed camera. The deformation would look crazy.

Bullet: "i'm sorry mamma I didn't mean to." block of lead: "I know son, Matt made you do it."

"Ow, it's hot". This video is 3 years old and we still here this today.

"Im a heavy metal guy" (looks at lead) 10/10 dad joke

We really needed the slo-mo guys for this one. It'd be so cool to see the impact of the bullet to the block in detail!

U should do a video to see if sewer lids are bulletproof

Hey Matt, this is old af. I love your channel, I just wanted to very humbly say that I’m a mechanical engineer, and we study material resistance and properties, specially Metals, and without going very technical, you should always consider, that a piece of metal like that one, will increase its hardness more and more, every time you hit it with a bullet. The compression increases the internal energy of the metal. So it may have an impact on the last rounds. Maybe you don’t care about this hahaha.. but it’s cool to see it... greetings from Venezuela!

Due to the lockdowns here in germany, i´ve watched all of your videos. Thank you very much for the perfect entertainment! Greetings from the German Air Force :)

Every Demo Ranch video: **waiting for the 50 cal**

Alternative title: Round Bullet vs Square Bullet

4:00 sounds like a teenage boy on prom night. “Wow, so deep. Deeper than I thought it was going to be.”

I work in a factory with 1 ton blocks of lead. I've always wondered what it would be like to shoot one. Now I don't have to get fired to find out. Thanks Matt!

can you imagine the UPS driver delivering a block of lead "fuck my life"

Block of lead: I am your father Bullet: what

I really think this is LEAD-GENDARY

Demoranch: “dang it’s so heavy” Steve: *amateurs*

*Hello, Sir Matt. You are a Legend.*

You know the video is over when he pulls out the 50 bmg

5:10 when considering how an object reacts to damage it's very important where it's damaged and how.

14 year old when they see a meme that says "Phones Bad": 3:57

Play .22 Jenga and shoot the blocks out

Instant like when he shot the 500 magnum again for us

It’s cool to watch these older vids and see how much Matt and the guns and the range have changed

I love it when you say. “all right let’s turn it up” Kentucky loves you demolition ranch

"DemolitionRanch: I used the lead to destroy the lead"

Hey Matt, Just a suggestion, you should probably buy a slowmo cam. That would make your videos look real awesome. It will also help you understand what actually happened at the target. Love

Her: be gentle it's my first time Him: 3:53

The holes in the lead block remind me of the T-1000 everytime he gets shot.

Pleaseeeeeee collab with The Slo Mo Guys!

Demolition Ranch & Backyard Scientist collab video please. Both of you make great content.

i love how he's fascinated by anything

Thanks for shooting again, Matt!

I kinda wish he just kept blasting it with the 50 bmg until he either tore it in half or could see right through it

_"How Strong is a Solid Block of LEAD?"_ at least 5 strong

Matt, I just love this channel!

Still watching this,love what u doing

*bearded man sends small pieces of lead at larger piece of lead*

Hey Matt my name is Austin with Pnw patriot arms I would love to send you some bullet proof glass the test with your bigger calibers, I have some of the thickest bullet proof glass around. And in youtube

This is cool! :D It would look really awesome to see it filmed in super slow motion! Time for a phantom camera!!! The impacts of the bullets into the lead at super slow motion would be epic! Like water drops but with metal. I'm guessing the lead from the hi-power rounds actually melts on impact and squirts out the back of the jacket. This video needs a re-do with a so motion camera focused on the lead block!!!!

The fact I’ve watched this video is awesome 3 years later is so cool I’ve watched it like 5 times

where the hell has this channel been my whole life

Those jokes at the start really went down like a lead balloon...

This video brought back a memory when I was scrolling down is past my 2nd watched demolition ranch video

one of your best vids matt.

As of today, DemoRanch is so far ahead of BackyardScientist

Who would win. One big lead boy Or One fast lead boy

These vids are just great man

thanks for shooting again , meant a lot

Demolition ranch? Damn sounds like one hell of a dorito flavor Edit: holy crap that's alot of likes! Thx guys :)

melt it and make a new lead block. so u dont have holes

This is the coolest demo ranch video that’s why I’m watching 3 years later

This looks like art

What about the 50 armor piercing round? I was looking forward to that

It would be AMAZING if you could get slow motion of the bullet impacts on the lead block.....COLLAB!!!! W/ Slowmoguys or taofladermaus!!! Like if you agreee!!!!!

Thanks for shooting one more 🔥🔥🔥

It's 2021 and we are still watching the legend

Give TheSlowMoGuys a call and shoot this in slow mo. This must look awesome. Witness the deformation!

This channel needs a decent slow motion camera. Also, no .50 BMG AP?

this is art

Yeah, you really gotta get a high speed camera. Awesome stuff

"Wow! Look at that hole, that is awesome, so deep, way deeper than I thought it would be"

Can you do a video showing us your gun collection!!! Like so Matt see's!

Man I miss the old demolition ranch

I love your videos man, they are always FUN to see 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

smash a .500 magnum round with the lead block. show it who's boss.

11:30 The block looks sad :(

This video legit made me want to purchase a S&M 500. The power in that is insane!

I love this channel man

Where is .50 BMG armor piercing incendiary tracer?!? I am dissapointed :P

I was so sad when you said you werent gonna shoot the 500 again, and got SO happy when you said you will😂🤘🤘

"look at that hole" "look at that crack" is this Demolition Ranch or Brazzers?

Wow demolition ranch is so close to 10M I can't wait for you to get 10 Mill! It's been a long journey when you started creating videos

Melt it down and make anther block.

2000 years in the future: “And the artifact that’s come to be known as “The Cubicle”, what is the panel’s take in this?” “The cubicle obviously furthers my take on the worship by this people of lead and a god of lead. This was obviously a counting stone. These ancient peoples had obviously come to an understanding of base 4 and used it as the basis of there counting system. The holes coated in copper were obviously multipliers, showing how advanced this people was. This was and is essentially an ancient abacus.” “Absurd. Absolutely absurd. The Cubicle is obviously a star map used for oceanic navigation. You can clearly see the Belt of Orion on the leading side, with representations of Jupiter and Venus on the periphery.” “I see. And you Mr Tsukalos?” “Look, there are many ancient stories that suggest that these monuments, the refrigerators, the cars, the blocks of lead, were transported by means of ballistic levitation. What the local legend of Demolition Ranch talks about, is that these items were transported by means of enormous craft in the sky. The great thing about the Ancient Astronaut theory is that we can compare modern achievements with stories from our ancient past. And so if today we’re able to create a two headed dog, with six legs, is it possible that such a creature existed thousands of years ago? And I say yes. Look, I’m not saying it’s aliens... But it’s definitely aliens.”

Love this channel, you always crack me up😂🤣

To this day this is one of my favs

I was screaming Led Zeppelin the whole time then laughed like crazy when you said awww Led Zeppelin dang it

“That went 4 or 5 inches deep.” “Look at that crack.” “ L O O K A T T H A T . . .” *matt, this is youtube. take it down a notch.*

RU-vid has been throwing this video at me even though I've already seen it, and I finally started watching it again. It's kinda funny how you thought Backyard Scientist was going to pass up your channel, you're over double is subs now. Glad you're both doing well, though, both of you have great content.

The beginning cracked me up

Demolitionranch + Slow mo guys already happened? Would be cool to see those bullets in super slow mo.

Heres an Idea: Take that lead block and Hang it somewhere. Pull it high and let it swing around. Shoot it with different calibers to see how much power every round has. Will a 50. BMG. stop it from swinging ? Lead is perfect for this, because it is so soft, that all the energy will be transfered to the block, because no round will make it trough.

Youd think his videos get boring or repetative but strangely it never gets boring and he never gets corny dude is hilarious

One of ur best videos

Matt, you should go on the Painkiller Already podcast. The host said you were their dream guest and it would be awesome to hear you talk to FPSrussia

i live next to a prison every time i play demolitionranch i get a inmate yelling from hes window saying "Turn it UP JUNNIOR "

I love these kinds of videos, where you buy one thing that's supposed to be really strong, and just keep pounding it with your whole arsenal until it yields.

That's now a work of art... wish you would of left the all the fragments but it's still beautiful as is. Great video even though I'm catching it 3 years late lol.

0:03 - Those jokes went down like a LEAD BALLOON!

I vote for shooting the lead block with an armor piercing incendiary round...

Appreciate this video

Hello from the other side of the atlantic! If I well understand, this guy has a channel where he is shooting on stuff... very nice!

Me: TASTE YOURSELF! *Shoots the lead block with a lead block*

You made the block of lead look like a square moon with all the holes in it XD lmao

Hey Matt just wanted to thank you been watching your videos for years Love every single one of them always gives me a good chuckle on the intros I love how you guys are real close-knit family all your friends are close-knit but the main reason I'm on here is the fact that I really loved your pitch for shade tree glasses I always wanted a set and I decided that now is the time to go ahead and get a pair so I ended up getting an American flag pair and I am absolutely in love with them thank you so much for pitching them and being sponsored by them I think you need to do some more shade tree sponsor videos great glasses great view at the lenses lightweight frame amazing thank you so much your fan

i'm not even own a gun and i love this channel,thanks for sharing.

A good employee of the month always keeps a brick of lead in his hat!

Dudes pretty informed about his weapons and his ammo. And is pretty damn good shot. Impressive.

Even tho its 3 years old back to watch it in 2020 and its still cool

This was pretty awesome
