https://www.Current.com/garandthumb Often worn to look intimidating, but do these bulletproof masks actually work? This is the question we wanted to answer with today's ballistic tests vs 22, 9mm, 45, 44 mag, 12 gauge and 308. The answer is likely what you'd expect but not for the reason you'd expect. In any case these were bought by me and not provided by any company. :) 00:00 Black Rifle Coffee Company Challenged me to do this 00:27 why this Bulletproof Masks kind of sucks 1:05 sponsors :) 1:57 sponsors over, setup for the test 2:38 armor level of these face masks 3:28 predictions - 22LR Pistol 3:37 predictions - Glock 17 9mm 3:47 predictions - HK USP 45 with suppressor 3:57 predictions - Korth 44 magnum revolver 4:02 predictions - Benelli M4 12 gauge 00 buckshot 4:11 predictions - FN FAL Rhodesia style 308 4:30 Armor placed upon head 5:07 TEST BEGINS 22LR Pistol vs Bulletproof Masks 6:28 Glock 17 9mm vs Bulletproof Masks 7:48 HK USP 45 vs Bulletproof Masks 9:25 Korth 44 Magnum Revolver vs Bulletproof Masks 12:20 Benelli M4 12 gauge shotgun vs Bulletproof Masks 13:23 Benelli m4 12 gauge SLUG vs Bulletproof Masks 14:16 This Armor sucks and will get you killed 15:07 Rhosedian FAL 308 vs Bulletproof Masks 17:03 Dad advice BIG THANK YOU TO CURRENT! ------------------------- LAS Concealment - bit.ly/LAS_Onward Drink Hero (Use Code GARAND for 10% off) - https://www.drinkhero.com/ Leatherback Gear (Use code GARAND for 10% off) - https://www.leatherbackgear.com/ XIDAX COMPUTERS OUR GOTO GAMING RIGS: https://mbsy.co/xidax/104960295 Onward Research (Limited Edition Dr Garand Thumb Glasses!) - https://www.onwardresearch.com/product/sunblockers3000/ Skallywag Tactical - https://www.skallywagtactical.com/ Mira Safety (Best commercial gas mask) - https://www.mirasafety.com/ Patreon Signup - https://www.patreon.com/GarandTHumb Beyond Clothing - https://beyondclothing.com/garandthumb My go to EYEPRO - https://amzn.to/3CNbJbQ Good chest rigs - https://amzn.to/3o6A8Fy Vertx 25% off DISCOUNT Code: GarandThumb - http://vertx.com/ ------Camera Equipment------ Xidax (My Computer Sponsor) - https://mbsy.co/xidax/104960295 Sony A7SIII - https://amzn.to/3okgbez GMaster Lens - https://amzn.to/39xuAvc Sennehiser Mic - https://amzn.to/39BRrFW Zoom H4 - https://amzn.to/3AEXiWM -- Like and Subscribe for more awesome Garand: http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=britishtang Insta: https://www.instagram.com/garand_thumb/ GarandThumb on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/garandthumb1
