Came across this a while ago when looking into bullet proof glass/armoured trucks (owing to my line of work I was interested ;)). It's amazing.

[Feek]

That's quite incredible and I suggest that would be a good time to move away from the window!

[Nutcase]

Seriously impressive considering the velocity of a typical sniper's rifle round :shocked:

[Zirax]

Yep where I work its all bullet proof tinted glass with hardcore doors around.

That was my first thought, I wouldn't still be standing there videoing as if I was completely safe. I had always thought that after bulletproof glass was hit for the first time it was weakened pretty significantly?

Go out and buy a lottery ticket!

Most bullet proof glass, certainly military spec is designed to withstand several rounds in a 20cm diameter of the original impact. However in spite of this I wouldn't want to stay around to find out! I've been to armour/bullet proof testing stations, it really is amazing.

[Stan_Lite]

Bloody hell. That would be a clean underpants required moment.

[Desmo]

Seen that before, it's certainly impressive stuff. I'm surprised the soldiers seemed to stay so calm afterwards, although I guess you maybe get used to things like that?

[Joe 90]

Wow, you wouldn't catch me sitting there to admire it though! wouldn't trust it to withstand a second shot if it looked like that after one!
