That's because the shaft allowed the point to slide up inside it. Had the arrow been strong enough to hold the tip solid, It would have gone deeper, maybe a lot deeper.
The problem is that the arrow collapsing in on itself dissipates energy that would otherwise be transferred into the plate. Completely hardened is not the way to go but a one piece arrow made from steel with a hardened tip or made from tungsten would be the way to go.
Rigel hardened steel would shatter like a frag grenade I agree with Ytxstream He would need to make it out of a solid one piece. Maybe out of titanium or aluminum with a FULL titanium jacket or maybe tungsten jacket but that might be too heavy.. Also the hollow shaft needs to end several inches before the tip of the arrow
And then he would have to completely remake his gun to be much bigger and capable of firing that heavy-ass rod you guys are thinking of. However it would be pretty neat if he had a blast shield to hide behind.
If the tip was only loosely fitted inside the shaft, wpuld the pressure on impact be able to ignite diesel? I know you dont do explosive projectiles because of laws but I'm wondering if it would be feasible to weld a blockade inside the shaft and have the tip be pushed in on inpact so that it ignites a charge (diesel goes off by pressure) that then propels the tip forwards.
this video is the one that made me realize how much of a genius this guy really is... keep doing your thing Joerg your a great man creating great ever lasting content... probably one of the only youtubers to provide that 2009 vibe...
I've seen plenty of bullets hitting AR500 steel, both in real life and on TH-cam. That did a lot more damage than I was expecting! My prediction was a small ding in the plate, with chipping of the hardened point of the arrow. Wow! My next prediction is that this is going to give Matt from Demolition Ranch and/or Jeff from Taofledermouse some ideas. I like most of your videos, but I especially like ones like this one where the results are different than I expected. Thanks for doing this cool experiment!
Joerg, .25" AR500 steel is what commercial steel level III body armor is made of. that air gun almost completely defeated a plate that is rated to stop .308/7.62 NATO at 2750fps and .223/5.56 NATO at 2950.
You'd still need the permit first. Not that easy to get, you'd need a reason. Nothing qualifies. Self defence (extremely hard to argue that anyway, but in this case impossible), sports (I doubt there is a club which has a .50cal category), collecting (too recent, also you aren't allowed to shoot them anyway and are only permitted to own 1 bullet in most cases). So yeah, in theory you could buy one. In practice, no so much.
RadioFreedom You'd still need to find a local club which offers the discipline. IIRC you have to actually shoot semi-regularly to maintain your license. If it's a official discipline I guess some ranges must offer it, otherwise it would be pointless. But the expenses aren't your only problem. So unless you want to travel across half the country every other week just to shoot your gun, you'd mainly have to be lucky to live near such a place.
The funny part is that this is one of the few moments that Joerg is actually afraid as he shoots his scary toy gun. Then again who wouldn't keep it up man and keep building scary toys.
Just a tip for using AR500... hang it when u shoot it. It is designed to hang and deflect bullets downward by swinging backward upon impact. Therefore it will not ricochet back towards the shooter. Here in the states, shooting steal plates is quite normal practice. All close range plates are only shot at if hanging or on stands that allow the plate to fall. Shooting at firmly mounted plates IS dangerous at close range and should only be shot at when shooting at 100 meters or more.
Im sure he know this.. The point here is to cause as much penetration and damage to the plate as possible. If it swings freely then the energy goes to move the plate instead of penetration. Well i think you just made a general tip anyway but everyone shooting hard target should know this anyway. I remember when i was kid i shot an empty sealed cokebottle with cheap air rifle and 4.5mm led ammo the projectile just bounced back and almoust hit my head. I had like 30m distance but the bottle were firmy against our wall so the bottle absorded the impact and returned to me instead of knocking the bottle down.
I need to stop doubting your destructive capabilities Joerg, I thought it would have made a little dent at best... I must now assume that you will destroy everything handed to you
The problem wasnt the hardness of the arrow though, it was the weakness of the shaft absorbing energy. Without fixing that, a new arrowhead won’t do a lot...
plasterbrick actually on the fence on this one. Tungsten is heavier. I forgot how it's called, but heavier things are less willing to chance direction. (Masseträgheit in german) So a heavier head could very well prefer to go forward instead of bouncing back. Maybe it would even go through and just strip off the shaft against the plate in that process.
That would be a waster of a perfectly good AR500 plate, they're not exactly cheap you know. If you're going to do that then he would be better off just getting a 1/4" sheet of mild steel and save the AR500 for other tests or even use it for target practice at the range.
The Stoned Videogame Nerd It's a target plate lol, you don't wear those on your body. You shoot them, and you paint them. Yall calm down. There's already a hole in it, which surprised me, I thought it would shatter. That metal is tempered so hard that it's brittle. To an extent.
I have watched people shoot AR500 steel targets for years on TH-cam. No penetrations. Here comes jorge with an air gun and shoots a hole in one. Ha ha ha only you man.

For that, there is another law, limiting the amount of force to something ridiculously small like .5 joule. But that's out of the question anyway, bacause the projectile goes over the barrell, not through... The most accurate thing to call it, would be an "unregulated contraption inhabiting a legal grey area". But of course, calling it a toy is much funnier.

@@MeepChangeling One can buy tungsten carbide rounds in the machine tooling market. Ot go and talk to a commercial machine shop and offer to purchase their broken endmill cutters. These can be silver soldered into a steel adapter with a shoulder, to fit into the pointy end of the arrow. The shoulder of the adapter would prevent telescoping of the adapter into the arrow tube, provided the tube's wall thickness is sufficient to absorbe the stresses.
Jeff, #Taofledermaus is going to be green with envy when he sees this, I don't think him and Officer Greg will find a shotgun shell to match your Nerf style toy shooter!
just wow. Need to show the demolition ranch channel this. Very impressive. So possibly an arrow completely made out of that steel will penetrate completely?
You truly are a master at creating weapons of great power from the simplest materials...love all of your videos and that badass srt10 truck of yours...well played sir
Man, it was already pretty obvious that that airgun is a monster, but compare the slowmos for the crossbow vs the airgun. The airgun projectile still looks like it is moving fast in the slowmo footage! There is some true force there!
To anyone about to complain that "but they mean AR500 BODY ARMOR plates!" the AR500 company uses the same steel in their gongs as in their standard bulletproof vests. The only difference between this and an AR500 Level III plate is the lack of anti-spalling coating. The coating does nothing to stop a bullet, nor break it up. It only helps catch led fragments (spalling) so you don't get your face shredded by shrapnel from the bullet hitting the hard steel.
you should try welding the front of the arrow together to see if it will prevent it from being pushed inside the tube. You might get more energy in the plate and less absorbed from the arrow "crumbling".
The deformation of the arrow not only absorbed a lot of the energy but also changed the shape pf the arrow so that it's no longer able to keep digging deeper. If the entire arrow was solid steel instead of a tip inserted into a tube, it probably would've gone through a lot deeper. Do you hink you could make such an arrow, Jorge?
Joerg, here is what I mean for the shape of the spike: a360.co/2vYuKZl - I have done some theoretical and experimental research in the past for piercing shapes and this proved to be both stable and efficient. The file is downloadable, the spike diameter is 20mm, proportions and radii may be scaled ±50% without loss of performance. Cheers!
Carbon 12 nails are made of low-carbon steel which does not harden. Besides, the shape is quite different although spikey. Devil is in detail, you know.
dawkinsfan41 well, the original designers of this spike for artillery piercing part of the shell started prototyping with medieval mizericordia but with increased speed and problems with tip stability evolved to this design very soon. It works in hand and at cosmic speeds alike.
WOW!!! I can't believe the power of that air gun. I hope you have more arrows for it, I want to see you shoot other things.Try shooting it at dry ice, I bet it would look pretty cool.
wow, that thing punched a small hole even though the plate was angled, i mean that's a seriously powerful "toy". in case anyone needs this explained, armor works better when it's angled because the object (arrow in this case) trying to penetrate it has to go through more material (steel in this case) before going through, and in some cases some of the force is directed away from the armor and doesn't help the penetration. so, if Joerg shot straight at the plate with no angle, the arrow would've punched a larger hole. but, of course, safety first. he's standing close enough to the plate that the arrow can bounce right back and seriously injure (or maybe even kill) him.
I love how the plate sounded like “Big Ben” in slow-mo, cool bonus. These air guns are truly scary. Robber... give me your money. Joerg..... I’ve got an air gun. Robber....wets himself and faints!

The most accurate thing to call it, would be an "unregulated contraption inhabiting a legal grey area".
But of course, calling it a toy is much funnier.
Years ago, I read a series of books called the Amtrak Wars and still remember the .22 caliber, triple barrelled air weapons they used.
You should make some darts with better steel.
Slingshot Channel, where I can get all my German engineering inspiration. Never fails.
Please make a "thot destroyer" That would be amazing and a true benefit to our planet. Thank you.

What is a 'thot'?

Thot definition: bfy.tw/DVns
darkblood626 another way to say "bitch".

WOW!!!!!!! I would have never thought that could pierce .25" AR500 steel. Absolutely incredible! Amazing show.
Bei 2 Millionen Abonnenten kannst du gerne ausprobieren, ob ein Pfeil nach Nordkorea fliegt ha ha ha ha
Bleib Old School, Jörg. Dein Format ist schon seit deinem Start sehr unterhaltsam. Danke
leider nicht. Dafür müsste das Projektil ja das eigene Grundstück verlassen. Illegal.
Deswegen darf man strenggenommen idr auch nicht Armbrust/Bogen im eigenen Garten schießen, da die meisten nicht 100% gewährleisten können, dass der Pfeil keinesfalls das Grundstück verlassen kann.
That is actually nuts that it went through AR500, I didn't expect it to get all the way through to the other side of the plate.
Try the same thing with a specially made Tungsten penetrator arrow!
Sadly he dosn't have the hardwarte to machine tungston. I dont think anyone sells that stuff to individuals anyways.
@@MeepChangeling One can buy tungsten carbide rounds in the machine tooling market. Ot go and talk to a commercial machine shop and offer to purchase their broken endmill cutters.
These can be silver soldered into a steel adapter with a shoulder, to fit into the pointy end of the arrow.
The shoulder of the adapter would prevent telescoping of the adapter into the arrow tube, provided the tube's wall thickness is sufficient to absorbe the stresses.
Can we just take a moment to observe that this man has testicles of titanium to be standing that close?
Jeff, #Taofledermaus is going to be green with envy when he sees this, I don't think him and Officer Greg will find a shotgun shell to match your Nerf style toy shooter!
Dear Christ! That thing can penetrate better than a 50BMG! Not even that can puncture the AR500 plate!
I'm just shocked...
Make a stronger arrow that won't absorb so much energy on impact... please
I worry that Jörg's work may lead to a tightening of German toy laws.
when a riot shield becomes too weak for a target
just wow. Need to show the demolition ranch channel this. Very impressive. So possibly an arrow completely made out of that steel will penetrate completely?
Does anyone renomber fpsRussia
Still miss his vids :/
His partner doesn't.
Mr J.S. why?
I play zombies fpsrussia i do believe is under suspension and still under criminal investigation
Got killed.
You truly are a master at creating weapons of great power from the simplest materials...love all of your videos and that badass srt10 truck of yours...well played sir
nice toy for kids
Of course
Man, it was already pretty obvious that that airgun is a monster, but compare the slowmos for the crossbow vs the airgun. The airgun projectile still looks like it is moving fast in the slowmo footage! There is some true force there!
use the airzooka :')
To anyone about to complain that "but they mean AR500 BODY ARMOR plates!" the AR500 company uses the same steel in their gongs as in their standard bulletproof vests. The only difference between this and an AR500 Level III plate is the lack of anti-spalling coating. The coating does nothing to stop a bullet, nor break it up. It only helps catch led fragments (spalling) so you don't get your face shredded by shrapnel from the bullet hitting the hard steel.
AR500 vs Airzooka?
This guy is the embodiment of German engineering
I've been watching your Vida since 4th grade and now I'm a junior in highschool
Alex Echeverria I've watched him since about 2013
I started watching him around 1979.
I believe it was the iron age when I first saw a video from him if I recall correctly.
i started watching him since 1945
Sorry, I misspoke earlier. The first time I remember seeing Joerg was immediately following the Big Bang.
you should try welding the front of the arrow together to see if it will prevent it from being pushed inside the tube. You might get more energy in the plate and less absorbed from the arrow "crumbling".
Those plates are designed to be suspended, not mounted to a frame
Very impressive! I did not expect that kind of damage at all! You exceeded my expectations!
Jetzt werden die Gesetze angepasst....ich seh's kommen...
The deformation of the arrow not only absorbed a lot of the energy but also changed the shape pf the arrow so that it's no longer able to keep digging deeper. If the entire arrow was solid steel instead of a tip inserted into a tube, it probably would've gone through a lot deeper.
Do you hink you could make such an arrow, Jorge?
Joerg, here is what I mean for the shape of the spike: a360.co/2vYuKZl - I have done some theoretical and experimental research in the past for piercing shapes and this proved to be both stable and efficient. The file is downloadable, the spike diameter is 20mm, proportions and radii may be scaled ±50% without loss of performance. Cheers!
Or you use a hardened nail, which is shaped the same.
Carbon 12 nails are made of low-carbon steel which does not harden. Besides, the shape is quite different although spikey. Devil is in detail, you know.
Interesting. It has a similar shape to a japanese pole arm called a yari. The yari is also good at piercing.
dawkinsfan41 well, the original designers of this spike for artillery piercing part of the shell started prototyping with medieval mizericordia but with increased speed and problems with tip stability evolved to this design very soon. It works in hand and at cosmic speeds alike.
The quest to create a home made man-portable anti tank weapon continues. Next step, more effective ammunition.

"There is still some risk of a ricochet hitting me, but this is the slingshot channel..." Famous last words one of these days.
Why does he keep saying this is the Slingshot Channel if the channel is name JoergSprave?
The Doctor. simply The Doctor. It all begun as the slingshot channel and cjanged the channel name after he started diversifying his content
Tiberiu Nicolae Why didn't he change what he said, too?
They allow you to have any name you want. You can change account type to permit it.
The plate is painted for spotting at distance. You repaint them after every outing if you care about being able to see your shots as you make them.
Wow you even proved yourself wrong. That's an amazing build. Keep it up! Great stuff
WOW!!! I can't believe the power of that air gun. I hope you have more arrows for it, I want to see you shoot other things.Try shooting it at dry ice, I bet it would look pretty cool.
wow, that thing punched a small hole even though the plate was angled, i mean that's a seriously powerful "toy".
in case anyone needs this explained, armor works better when it's angled because the object (arrow in this case) trying to penetrate it has to go through more material (steel in this case) before going through, and in some cases some of the force is directed away from the armor and doesn't help the penetration.
so, if Joerg shot straight at the plate with no angle, the arrow would've punched a larger hole. but, of course, safety first. he's standing close enough to the plate that the arrow can bounce right back and seriously injure (or maybe even kill) him.
I love how the plate sounded like “Big Ben” in slow-mo, cool bonus. These air guns are truly scary. Robber... give me your money. Joerg..... I’ve got an air gun. Robber....wets himself and faints!
I love that bit at the end about always loving to meet fans. Its great!
Shoot this plate with the Airzooka. The Airzooka is by far my favorite 'toy' you've ever created.
Had the power to penetrate that plate just not the geometry. Seriously impressive!
Joerg: well, this is the slingshot channel.
Pull out huge 1000jule air rifle.
