What did you think about today’s test? I hope you enjoyed it and thanks for watching!

I don't think you would survive the blunt force trauma caused by the bullet traveling through your torso.

"I wanna see some energy transfer, NOT penetration!" 😂😂😂 Please put that on a Tshirt!🤣

Watching Scott's arms slowly get more and more sunburnt as the video went on was very stressful haha

i love how every time he brings out the 500 Nitro now, he gives us new animals that are engraved into the gun. first the barrel lever was an unknown animal, then it became a chubacabra, now it's a baby velociraptor.

This guy's content surely never fails to entertain us. Thank You Scott.

Real talk: Wonderful to see your channel thriving! Sharing your recovery and straight-up getting right back to it have absolutely inspired and changed real lives for the better.

I think him trying to get the dummy ready was the funniest part 🤣

Just for those that don't know about blunt force trauma, that is called a flail chest. 2 or more adjacent ribs with at least 2 breaks creates a free floating portion of the chest wall causing difficulty in efficiently expanding the lungs leading to breathing difficulty. It is considered a very serious injury and can quickly lead to death if not stabilized quickly. That many ribs being broken in that manner would be an extremely severe flail chest and would cause immediately and extreme issues for the person experiencing it.

That CZ 550 with the 416 Rigby is BRUTAL, I would place it and maybe the next size up as the most dangerous of those rifles to face. The 700 is large, but...that 416 seems to have TEETH.

Glad you are still alive! I remember selling armor at the gun shop I worked at. We had a small company that made great lighter weight level 4 plates and had an example that had been hit with .223 .5.56 Green Tip, 7.62x39, 30-06AP, and .308 all in one plate and the deformation on the back was impressive, the single plate stopped everything but the higher calibers would definitely rearrange your organs lol. Even if the Premiere armor had stopped the very first large caliber....your insides would be very uncomfortable lol.

1:50 Lmao, I bet the lady that checked it through the xray scanner probably had a heart attack xD

Scott I know you Probably don't read down this far usually but I must thank you. I was trying to explain this concept to an 18 year old niece who is learning to shoot for self defense. She was concerned that A ballistic vest would stop transfer of energy. She understood the explanation but a practical demonstration is worth a 1000 words.

Body armor is designed to break up the projectile, very hard to do with a large solid projectile like the 416. A level 4 plate is rated to stop 30-06 black tip and keep the energy transfer below the internal damage threshold.

The 416 Rigby is just a beast. Should have been an option in your Jurassic Park poll.

I remember reading an account years ago by one of the oldschool professional hunters in Africa, maybe Selby or Capstick, of how a client made a perfect shot on a rhino and when they approached it they found the body of a small bird which had been sitting on its back. There wasn't a visible mark on it, it had just been killed by the kinetic shock going through the animal.

At least you didn't use a 9mm That wouldn't blown the lungs right out

In this episode Scott finds out the difference between the words "can" and "will". Those plates "can" stop those rounds. Weather they "will" or not is a different matter. The moral here is don't trust a level 4 plate with big boy rounds.

Nothing against Scott in particular. But I've noticed a trend amongst guntubers. "I want penetration test" proceeds to use hollow points and soft points. "I want energy transfer" proceeds to use solid brass or fmj bonded rounds. Either way I'm glad for the video it's very informative l. Glad to see you've fully recovered
