hello everyone this is Jeff of Taofledermaus We have a experiment that I
call the hydraulic expansion bullet
basically all I did I took a 9-millimeter Full Metal Jacket bullet
and carefully drilled a deep pocket into it like a really deep hollow point i
filled that full of a liquid- in this case red dye and then i sealed it with epoxy
the idea is to create a hydra shock condition inside the bullet causing it
to expand much more than a normal hollow point. today's shooter is nick and he'll be
shooting this through the Chiappa m1-9 nine millimeter carbine
ok it's really called chiappa but chiappa is much more fitting because
it's such a cheapo gun shot is at a steel plate
now reason i picked the steel plate was I was expecting this to leave a big red
stain on it but that this didn't happen
let's find another target
yeah
ok these are clear ballistic gel gummy bears
we didn't see anything exciting happen here otherwise we would've shot with a
normal unmodified ball round so this probably isn't the right target yet give
me shit out of a Glock this time lock 19 Gen
and once again we didn't see anything odd happen which is a good thing because
i only had one watermelon but we want to show you what it looks like shot out of
a handgun
next up is the bat 19 5 pound gummy bear
let's see how this works
yeah
the bad 19 gummy bears are very tough and are probably about five times denser
or thicker than ballistic gel and you can see there's a big red spot where
that bullet impacts is as we watch this again
watch the trail of red miss coming off the boy must have a tiny pinhole in it
and like some of that red dye out but I thought that was still pretty
interesting
now let's compare it to and unmodified bullet
we definitely found the right target this time you'll notice that the
unmodified bullets the Full Metal Jacket bullet had no problem just going right
through that gummy bear and it didn't even knock it over it went through so
cleanly
let's see what the hydraulic bullet did this gummy bear
he hit a kind of a thinner area the gummy bear yet
the bullet did not pass through it all it pretty much exploded and fragmented
inside there and there is a large amount of red dye in there
let's start pulling some of the pieces out and see what we've got
yeah
and once I had all the pieces out I clean them up and this is what I've got
lots of unrecognizable fragments a little pieces of lead and copper
jacketing pretty interesting experiment
I hope you enjoyed this thank you for watching
