NatGeo Shoots Balloons

Okay, so the results of this video shouldn’t be all that surprising, but I thought the slow-mo footage was pretty cool and worth sharing.

If you’ve watched any ammo tests on YouTube the amount of water that the bullet penetrates is about what you’d expect, but I thought balloons were an interesting way to illustrate it.

I’d like to see it again with different rifles.

    But only because I have shot high power rifles into 1 gallon water jugs and 4 or 5 is about it.
