definitely considered doing that but i don't want to die....yet

[@Ocarinaa]

@@RyanKung you could have the string around the trigger, and like a small piston or servo connected to the string, connect the piston/servo to a wire and go off to the side, so you can press a button to contract the string to pull the trigger

same lol i was so confused😂😂😂

[@hellomate639]

Now I'm picturing a ballistic shield that is a big funnel that catches bullets, with a hole that redirects them back at the shooter's direction. It would look like a big dumb tuba that kills you if you try to shoot it

[@EthanEW]

Your tests with the rifle against the wiggly pipe reminded me of a video I saw the other day about the StG 44 barrel attachment used during World War 2 called; The Krummlauf. It was basically just a slight curved barrel that allowed troops to shoot around corners or over walls, etc, but because of the bend was only able to be used for roughly 100 rounds and turned the rifle more into a shotgun-esque shrapnel spread.

[@leflamewolf]

Interestingly there were originally four types of this twisted barrel, but only the smallest bend was used as all others would break within a few hundred shots, were extremely inaccurate, and like you said they were basically worse shotguns. Even then the one that was used was very limited due to the same problems.

[@rebelgaming1.5.14]

​@@leflamewolf Yep. Israel fixed this problem by using a mechanical system to aim around corners with a pistol. The front end can be bent around a corner with a pistol on it while you hold it like a rifle. Then, when you pull the trigger, it sends a signal to the lever attached to the pistol trigger, causing it to fire. Pretty neat way to avoid the curved barrel and shrapnel problem.

[@tzimiscelord8483]

[@cookiebear1330]

The pipe doesn't have to be thicker and heavier, you just need to reinforce the turns only, and it would keep the weight and cost down

[@jakeking974]

So yeah, kevlar, the primary component of bullet-resistant material, is particularly bad with subsonic piercing damage like a knife or, idk, a crossbow bolt. You can cut kevlar with scissors, but it resists bullets because it acts similar to a non-Newtonian fluid where it becomes rigid with heavy impacts, but remains soft and malleable as slower impacts and it's specifically des for bullets which have a VERY high impact compared to something like a swing knife or even a crossbow bolt. But in a standard bullet-resistant vest (bulletproof is a lie, nothing is bulletproof), there's typically ceramic plates inside along with the kevlar and other materials that would divert those slower moving objects, albeit only once per plate and they're significantly heavier.

Great content no nonsense, straight to the point!👍

[@theSUBVERSIVE]

There are some bullet pipe bending videos out there and they do work in a lot of different scenarios and more effective than you would imagine. The problem with this video's tests is that they are all at point blank range, I think the results will be different with some separation.

[@KiemPlant]

At first I thought the tubes were connected to each other at the end and thought you were literally going to curve the bullet into yourself.
