Can you shoot the vest with a high velocity .17 caliber? I think it will pierce it
I went ahead and ordered their new bundle with your code 💪 Thanks for the video great content.
@@jumpkickman1993, I highly doubt it.
I wish I could have got 10% off my Safe Life armor. Shit cost me $800.00 and I'm STILL NOT RIFLE RATED!!!!!!
Trust me, you can do better on price with VISM plates and a trauma pad.
The purpose of armor is to upgrade your reservation from the morgue to the Emergency room
@ASN alternatively it could be a dozen feet behind you and youve got a nice 3d map of the bullets path through you.
I have their 3A+ with level 4 plates I'll take a bullet with a plate everyday lol
@ASN well it depends on the plate and if you have a pad or not
What if there is no emergency room
9 x out of 10, your still going to be hurting your entire ass off, laying in the Emergency room after a getting shot by a 20" barrel rifle with 5.56 NATO 55gr.
Cool to see how well it does even being soft armor up against rifle rounds.
Makes me feel a touch better about if I ever had to wear mine 🙂
Late night YT with AK Jesus !
NOTICE ME SENPAI, NOTICE ME!
I would ask for an Ak-50 update but we just got one.
Make sure to protect your shoulder and legs bro
Alot of police shootings where police get hit it happens in the leg or arm
My brown eye itches.
If you are wearing armor that can take two 62 grain M855, two 55 grain m193, two m67 7.62x39, and two 7.5 FK from 8 feet, that’s the best you can do. If you wanted to be invincible, don’t get in a gun fight

Isn't that funny the way the world is pussifeing...
That last lower slug shot was like a night after eating taco bell.
Dude for real ,,,,the 4am wake to the can
The armor should have covered the spot you hit with the first shot. That was right in the vitals!!
Thats what I was thinking.
It's because it was on a dummy. I doubt he took the time to line it up properly.
Then why use an expensive ballistic dummy? If you're going to test, test right.
@@matthewtracy8744 because he's not testing the armors fit on a legless, armless, headless mass of gelatin, he's testing the armors ballistic capabilities.
He got it right the first time or go low🤔
One of the things this shows is that armor has to be worn higher than you’d expect to protect lung tissue
no, its supposed to come to the top of the sternum. he had it below. if he had it on properly the armor would have covered that initial shot. But its a dummy so i guess he didnt bother
@@Howdy762 His own armor isn't covering his sternum. The armor is cut too low.
@@itreehorsenumber3 Cut or worn too low.
You're not wrong, the lung extends above the clavicle. Although if you get shot there what with the brachiocephalic and subclavian vessels you're going to have a bad time either way
@@itreehorsenumber3 I agree. Thats the only thing I don't like is the cut. Safariland and GH armor have the best cuts for protecting that part.
so as long as the guy shooting you is accurate enought to hit only the armor part, you should be fine.
It's all about increasing your chance to survive getting shot at. Maybe you can skedaddle faster without armor? That's a factor to consider. Some armor, even a centered shot on the armor wouldn't protect you.
It uses overlapping tiny plates to allow flexibility. He shot high, right on the edge. Any armor that covers above the collarbone would not be very menouvreable. If you get shot in the neck, tough break. But armor atleast gives you a chance vs nothing
There's actually quite a few studies on this, but under stress, most people just aim center mass, and most fights occur at close range. But of course, that's no guarantee
You can survive a gut shot. You can survive a hit to the arm or the legs. You will not survive a shot to the aortic arch you will be dead almost immediately. You could get shot in that arch next to a fully qualified trauma team and you'd still be fuckin dead.
i just wanna say, i agree withh ya'll.
Honestly the way the first shot escaped the armor protection is a good reminder that armor doesn't make you invincible, so good tactics and cover still apply.
Guy with rifle plates: your rifle won't pass through this.
Guy with 45-70 rifle: you're gonna shit a lung boy!
It's no 50-110 or close to it.

ERIC : wrong I’m showing people how they WONT DIE with body armor on
Agreed and well said! Also "Wrong. I'm showing them how to defend themselves against the people you turn a blind eye to in order to win SJW points with politicians."
Yeah not sure if you saw the video. You would be dead after the first 2 shots.
@00 00 this made me laugh
you're dead with this armour if ya get shot.
@@kalrodwick did we watch the same video?
By far the best armour video I’ve seen to the point that it’s scary. The way you present these is awesome. This gives you a new respect for firearms and what service personnel are presented with on a daily basis.
Cool to test the FK BRNO 7.5. I wasn't expecting to see that in an armor testing
Im an emt, and just for all of you that are curious, multiple broken ribs leads to what's called "flail chest".
"Flail chest is a condition defined as two or more contiguous rib fractures with two or more breaks per rib and has mortality estimates conservatively ranging from 9 to 20% [2, 3]. Such high mortality rates are attributed to a higher incidence of concomitant injuries and respiratory difficulties [2]."
Look up some videos on this and you can see what it would look like in real life.
This armour did very well considering it’s soft and easier to maneuver in. Don’t forget these also have front and rear plate pockets for level IV plates as well. I’d be curious to see how much of a difference that would make with or without the added plates.
IV8888 - "Hey Biden, what kind of gun should I use in the event of an Alien invasion?"
Biden - "Just a shotgun."
@Ryan no no no, stop doing that ! stop exposing the bullshit.
^^Man I sure do love them assault rifle fourteen bans 🧐
Biden (you dont need a ar15 and body armor for hunting)
The bois-2nd amendment never once mentioned hunting at all so
@Ryan Bump stock is a literal meme item that nobody in their sane mind would use for self-defense against anything.
@Ryan Actually Trump took the bump stocks. Biden will just take away everything else
Slugs as a "last line of defence" against bears? They would be my first line of defence, I'm not shooting a grizzly with something smaller first and let it get closer.
First line of defense are landmines
When I'm in shot gun zones and I need me some anti booger artillery 😈
Watch the Alaska cop show- they always take the 12 ga in the wilderness with them
Unconvenient to carry, much easier to have something like Ruger RedHawk Alaskan in 454 casull at your side when you are out fishing for salmon or something.
M203 on an AR10 for me lol.

That lab coat reminds me of the good ol days with Barry. RIP Barry
3:01 That akward moment in a shooter's life when you miss a cow in the middle of a corridor 😂😂
1 shot 1 kill even with armor on... I call it a win
It happens to the best of us!
For cheaper, produced in the USA and actually holds NIJ certification you can get a Stealth Armor Systems HFRAS which is superior by design to the Safelife FRAS.
I hope to test both of these systems to see what design is better :D
I just looked at it, and the tier 1+ is $3200.
This is just at $2000.
I must be missing something
HFRAS is definitely going to be better.
@@M240D the HFRAS as of January 31 is around $2800 with all the bells and whistles. I couldn't justify that unless I was in Taliban country.
@@xXsniperXxDF1 According to a test conducted by the owner of stealth armor systems the HFRAS is indeed better in performance, lighter, and cheaper. It's also made in the US by a longtime vetted modern armor designer. Safelife doesn't manufacture their FRAS.
Great video - thank you. I think the biggest takeaway for most people is that there is a definite need for hard armor protection. Soft armor is easier to wear but if I know there is a chance I could be facing a long-gun threat I will hard-armor up.
I’ve yet to see testing on any hard armor against multiple rifle shots that I felt confident about.
Seems like something to buy in bulk for the fam! Too bad anything 2a related these days is just about impossible to buy in bulk
Not just in bulk. Everything is hard to find and or very over priced.
AND you have to hide it from your restless gun hating neighbors & mailman 😫
Its commie Joe's fault
Caster aka BadMan If you’re hiding your hardware bc you don’t want neighbors or whoever you don’t trust trying to rob you, that’s acceptable and understandable. If you’re hiding your hardware bc you’re scared of certain tyrannical government agencies knocking at your door and questioning you and just overall afraid of the government, then that person shouldn’t own firearms period. Donate them to the tyrannical government and let them have them
@@jakeh6980 was the later half a joke?
I saw this on your Instagram the other day and have been waiting for y’all to upload it
I love how you can hear that crunchy twang of the spring in those old stock designs.
Nice video , I was surprised that the 55 grain did more damage that the 62 grain ! It was nice to see you doing side shots also , I don't see this demonstrated very often!
Velocity defeats body armor. 55g defeats body armor more often than 62g
So glad I got my safelife vest just in time for civil war 2.0
Shit was on backorder for 2 months, and that was back in August. Probably on 1 year backorder by now.
@@sahmdhude4130 Zucc cannot be out-cucked.
I love brennekke, learned about them going through the alaska state trooper Academy. After that i only carry brennekke 3inch slugs hunting all the time
I love the hiss of the A2 spring
It would be cool to see an impact load test (load cell) with different types of armor and rounds. It could give you an idea the impact trauma you’re going to still feel.
Finally a video where they use ballistic with organs. Subbed!!!
Oh holy hell that slow-mo at the end...good thing I was already on the toilet. Faaccckkkk...
I love your content because of you knowledge on the history of firearm and firearm related things.
The colab with warrior poet was awesome getting the history on those guns.
Man I’ve been wanting these BAD! I hope this review goes well. Can’t wait.
Side note: I love your HBAR. Best AR in my honest opinion. Can never go wrong with a good heavy barrel.
Soft armor amazes me how far armor has came
lots of good energy and content, I really enjoyed it!
Some of your best work. Thanks.
Most under-rated gun channel period. Love your content!
Take a shot everytime he says "threat"
Or “bad day” It was super annoying
@@Tainomontana haha with that you'll have a bad day, liver wise
Instructions unclear got the recieving end of the A-10.
Those slowmow shots were brutal.
This was a great video.
Put that armor on the top of my Christmas wish list please Santa.
You always go above and beyond with your video my friend
I don't know if this is the right place for this but I've been curious about the relatively "new" CZ 1012 inertia operated shotgun. I think it would be a good review for you because of how much you enjoy Beretta shotguns and you could see how it stacks up. There just hasn't really been any indepth reviews of it. Thanks for your time and what you do.
I got a 3a+ safelife, it’s thick and heavy as shit. Wore it for 1.5 years as armed security. For the price point, it’s kinda worth it.
I’d rather have plates though. They’re better at absorbing the impact energy so something doesn’t burst, rupture, etc...
But the all around/side protection is really really nice.
Hi Eric, been watching your channel for years. Plus been watching safelife body armor. Thanks for the review and code for the discount. I bought some of there products. Last I'm a iraq vet from yours generation. Currently live in nebraska. There is support from the citzen in my state.
Love these videos!! Always love ballistics gel tests!
Great for undercover cops in the Northeast. Not so great for under covers in Miami!
That's is why the raid compounds with the actual military down there they are devastating but they are not mobile weapons
Kind of would like to see how deep a depression those cartridges would make with a clay block behind the armor...
You get some of that info here because the body has bones and organs. If the rounds were making huge indentations, they would damage the bone, even the organs lower down.
I got the Hyperline-Fras bundle. Being a bigger disabled retired guy. I was amazed to find out they have larger sizes. Mine fits well and wears well during the day.
Thank you for showing this
6:21 Those rounds didn't get through but that ribcage is broken in multiple places.
They wouldn’t break in a human body those bone are much weaker ofc
@@Anonymous-pn4xm really? I didnt know that.
Still alive though...
I would rather have some broken ribs than a hole in my chest
@@Beaumont6 yea as long as the rib doesnt puncture the lungs/heart
Id be curious to see if they've ever made a carbon fiber body armor? If it would make like a hybrid hard/soft armor thatd be more effective than Kevlar yet lighter than a plate
I’m grateful for this as I would normally wear this on duty.
Nice job, keep on keepin on...
I wonder how it would fair against a 91/30 with pre ban silver tips
That fatal first shot is a valuable lesson about... ___. (You know what I'm getting at.)
height over bore?
Wearing your armor high as intended 🙂😉😂 lol
Methods No. The plate should be worn higher. You should be able to look down without choking yourself, but still high enough to avoid being shot like this dummy was. I’m kinda bummed to see this vest sits low like that. Case in point with that first shot. 😳
The vest was mounted to low on the dummy, The shoulder straps should have been tightened to bring the vest up to fit right.
@Graham Stewart Bingo!
those last super slow mo shots of the slugs impacting are Brutal!!
I really enjoy these types of videos and chronograph videos
Love to see a arrow test using compound an crossbows that would be awesome
Ehh, just for fun? Or are you legit worried about a crossbow bolt?
@@OTSOBerg-pn5gm I'm saying I wonder what would happen to that type body armor an Ballistic dummy chest if someone used arrows on them would it stop them or Or will they go right through it
Love this review, you never dissappoint.
Excellent demonstration of this armors ability
When are we going to see the FK 7.5 in a SBR? I would love to see that round on a 10 to 12" barrel rifle.
You might as well use an SBR at that point.
Is there any test available for this type of armor (soft), that measures kinetic energy... for when the round impacts/causes a bulge, and makes contact with the body? I haven’t seen any, but I may not have been looking in the right places.
Extremely informative
Very impressed with this armor... thanks for the vid!
Forget the armor vest.... where'd you get that cool armor mask?
It stays ON in the bedroom
Lol the one he couldn't aim through? Yeah looks like a great piece of kit 😂
They're great I got my ballistic face mask from security pro usa
@@jacoballen8800 thanks. I might check it out.
speaks yeah sure man no problem before buying make sure to browse around for coupons I think there's atleast 5% codes on the web.
Oh it was definitely the dummy’s fault! I keeeed I keeeed! 😂😂
Very good illustration eric! 👍👀
Awesome video! Always great content!
I'm curious what an M2AP bullet in 300 AAC Blackout would do. Buffman recently showed such a round penetrating armor that stopped M855A1 at 3132fps.
I'm guessing depending on how thick the ceramic is, if it's under .200" that load will go through. I'm talking to SF about trying to get this armor :D
Very interesting. I'd like to see what kind of damage the rounds would do to the balistic torso if it was hard plates vs soft plates
Good job Professor!
Its always an awesome day with you Eric
Wears armor then bad guy accidentally shoots around it... rip lol
Armor only protects you from those that know to shoot where the armor would be.
Damn is this company's armor expensive.
go look at Point Blank. oh wait they don't even publish their prices!
Botach! Level 4 plates for $110
probably worth your life though.
and you're still dead if you wear it and get shot. lmfao
If you don't plan on ever maybe getting shot with it . Don't buy armor if you need the armor buy the good shit so your still alive afterwards
Thanks for making the video
Good video brother! We love ya!
I'd say ask my boy "Deady Hawk" about what it's like to get shot sub-eight feet with it but uhh...
Maybe Mr. Bye-cep could give an insight though.
Spaghetti arm!! Uh oh, spaghetti-o's! 😂
If Roscoe survives he gets to go back home
After watching further into the video I would like to send my condolences to his family
Wow, the slow mo was impressive!
Love all your videos!!
Poor Rosco the alien. He landed on the wrong planet, into the hands of a vet.
Who else wanted them to shoot a whole tube of birdshot at the dummy after they were done
That's a good video idea. Some say birdshot is lethal for HD, some say it's not. Real question is, what range is it lethal, and what size shot? That dummy would be a fairly accurate test medium. Also, test a wax slug and buckshot.
I like seeing these kinds of videos especially with the ballistic dummies having bone and organs in them. gives ya a good idea what happens when a bullet hits even with body armor
Thanks ill consider this for back to school shopping
drinking game :drink a shot everytime he says "very bad day"😝😝😂
I'm happy he used a 20 inch m16
In the ar 15 world at that close of range that is a worse case scenario
Thank you so much for sharing.
That was super informative!!!!
2:23 I like your covid mask
Say it with me guys: PARROT RIFLE!!!
@CelticSaxon88 yes. Afaik he has one. You can find old videos of it on his channel.
@CelticSaxon88 yes it is lol
Excellent video as always! God that slug was brutal as expected.
Fun to watch.... I'm learning a lot too.
Somebody get him a red dot please 😂
😂
I want to see some Mosin silver tip and Cz52 mag dumps, you know those tokarevs are on a different level too
The FK is much mire powerful than Tokarov.
@@boomerisadog3899 it is not actually. I reload a few pistol rounds and I can get the 7.62x25 sailing along faster with starline brass or 556 made brass. I can load 10mm with a light projectile and beat it. I can load 9x25 withthe same weight and beat it as well as the .40 super I can very easily beat 7.5 fk without a thought about it .
@@boomerisadog3899 I thought the FK was about 850~ft/lb at 2000fps,
I've seen S&B Tok and surplus from the factory that went nearly 2700 fps with an 85gr ball, so I wondered if the much higher velocity helped it. Also I've seen people load STUPID fast 28-2900 loads with 65rgr's in their modded tokarevs
@@someasianguy3793 I have some 7.62x25 loads that are SMG loads basically but modern and hotter. These loads can not be fired from the cz52 and only the TT-33 and SMG's
Awesome vest. I'm impressed with that soft body armor 👍
Great test !
