00:00Today we're going to see how bullet resistant the Cybertruck really is. Since nothing is
00:04actually bullet proof, there's always going to be a bigger bullet. But today we're going
00:08to see scientifically where that line gets drawn. We have tiny 22 bullets all the way
00:12up to a 50 cal which should do the job. It's a little bit snowy today so we have
00:16to sterilize the surface with a burn test!
00:24Alright, that was close. Let's get to the actual shooting.
00:28To make things a bit more interesting, Ridge has sent over quite a few of their compact
00:33wallets and said that for any bullet that hits within the red square, they will donate $1,000
00:38to my off-road wheelchair company. Not a wheelchair. So a huge thanks to Ridge for sponsoring this
00:43video. I've personally carried a Ridge wallet in my own pocket for the last 5 years. Mostly
00:48because I have an abnormal allure to titanium, but also because it blocks RFID, goes in my front
00:53pocket instead of my back pocket, holds up to 12 cards and has a lifetime warranty. This
00:58is what a new burnt titanium looks like, and what a burnt titanium looks like after being
01:02in your pocket for 5 years. They also have a ridiculously awesome looking burnt Damascus,
01:08which I'm going to choose as our first target. You can grab one for yourself at ridge.com
01:12slash jerryrig and I'll put a link down in the description. Ridge has over 3 million
01:16customers and as a special gift for their 11th anniversary you can get up to 30% off
01:21with the link in the description – ridge.com slash jerryrig. There's over 30 designs to choose
01:25from and each of them have a 365 day guarantee and a lifetime warranty. And again, huge thanks
01:31to Ridge for sponsoring this video and donating money, assuming we can hit anything, to my Not
01:36a Wheelchair project. We are being as safe as possible during this shooting test. We are at an
01:40official gun range with rock berms along either side for complete protection against any stray
01:46bullets. The rules of the competition are we have 30 bullets and this red square box. And for
01:51each bullet that ends up inside the red square box, Ridge will donate $1,000 to my Not a Wheelchair
01:56company up to $15,000. First gun we'll be trying out is a Glock 19. It's a 9 millimeter handgun
02:02shooting full metal jackets, 115 grain, and I am going to take 5 shots and see where that gets us.
02:10Never shot a $100,000 truck before, but Elon says it's bulletproof.
02:22That's wild!
02:23Oh no way! Oh! That one went through! Did it? Oh no, dang. Oh that's sick. Look at this.
02:41They're a little bit warm. Each divot is warm, but there's no cracking. That's awesome. The
02:46Cybertruck is bulletproof to a 9 mil for sure. Looks like we... oh no way! I didn't even see
02:52this. Zoom in on this. The Damascus Steel caught the bullet. That's amazing.
02:59Look at that. That is the coolest thing. Damascus Steel. Alright, so I shot 5 times and I hit 5
03:06times. The last thing we want is for the 9 mil bullet to hit the same spot twice because the
03:10metal is already weak. So we're going to have a new square. So I got 5 of my shots within the
03:20square. So that's $5,000 for Not A Wheelchair Company. Riley's the chief operations officer
03:24over there and now it's his turn to shoot. I don't know why I'm nervous, but I'm nervous.
03:28Like, I've never been nervous hitting a target, but ah. Alright, do it for the discounted
03:34wheelchairs. Make sure you get them all in the box. I hit the wall at one time,
03:37so we'll see if Riley's a better shot than I am. It's too close to the window. I'm nervous.
03:43No pressure, right? No pressure. No pressure. Okay.
03:52That's right. Dang, dude.
04:01I guess I shouldn't have done that, huh? Oh, well.
04:03That was solid. That was 5 shots, right? That was 5. Yep, we're clear. Okay, good.
04:10Dang, dude. Wow. That wallet protected the Cybertruck really well, actually. Which is good
04:16because I didn't even realize I was shooting the same spot. If there was no wallet, it would have
04:20gone through. That's crazy. That's where the wallet was. And that's Riley's bullet. You can
04:26see the splatter. That's amazing. So it turns out Riley's a better shot than me,
04:34and our third contestant is Jacob, and he's going to be the one who's patching any holes
04:39that go through the Cybertruck door, right? Yeah. He's a really good stainless steel welder. Alright,
04:45let's see what you can do. Okay, Jacob. I hit all 5 of mine. Riley hit all 5 of his. Let's
04:50see what you can do. Okay, but you don't want them all in the same spot, right? Right, right.
04:54Spread them out a little bit. Inside the red box. Sick. Nice work.
05:13Oh, that one's stuck in. Your bullet's still inside. Yes, that's what I was trying to do.
05:18Sick. So far we haven't missed a single shot. Every single one of them has been inside the
05:24red box. That was almost a little too easy making $15,000 for the Not A Wheelchair Company. There
05:29will be a discount code on the website bringing the cost of each one of our machines down by
05:33a thousand bucks. Thank you very much Ridge. Now let's try some bigger ammunition. Oh dang,
05:40this one cracked a little bit it looks like. That's what I was trying to do too. That one
05:45totally cracked. Did you hit 2 in the same spot? No. Maybe. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. There we go,
05:56a crack in the middle. But it didn't go through. The first crack. The first but not the last. We
06:02have some big bullets coming through. So we've officially determined that the Cybertruck is
06:06indeed bullet proof to 9mm ammo as long as we're not hitting in the same spot over and over again.
06:11There's a small crack where we double shot in the same hole. Right now though we're going to
06:16be shooting some faster ammunition which means that it will probably go through the door and so
06:21we're going to cheat a little bit by opening up the door just so we're not bouncing bullets around
06:26inside of the cab. I do want to be able to use my Cybertruck after this scratch test is over.
06:32For the rest of the sets we have two very small bullets and then two very large bullets. This is
06:36a .22 and this is a .17. This one travels at 1,000 feet per second and most likely will not
06:42go through the car door. This one travels at 2,500 feet per second and most likely will go
06:48through the door. Interesting how tiny they both are. For reference this was the 9mm bullet that
06:54we were shooting earlier. This one's the .17 and this one's the .22. This one's about 6 cents.
06:59This one costs about 40 cents and this one costs about 25 cents. When we get into the bigger
07:04bullets though, this AR costs 33 cents and this .50 cal costs about $5 a shot. Not that it matters
07:11when we're shooting a $100,000 truck. Let's see what happens to these little tiny guys.
07:15This is a .22. It will probably not go through.
07:29Okay, let's go find out.
07:32All right, those .20s, they're cute. They're little divots. That's sweet. Little bullet
07:39splatters all the way around. All right, good to know it can withstand 9mm and .22 bullets so far.
07:50All right, this one's the .17 HMR going two and a half times faster than the .22 and even
07:56though it's about the same size as the 9mm, this one should go through.
08:00Three, two, one.
08:05Oh yeah!
08:07I can see that from here. That's sick! Okay, let's go check it out. What's the damage? Oh my gosh!
08:14Oh, that went crazy. That's all the way through. Anything in the backside? Interesting. What in
08:21the world? Okay, it went through the door panel but it didn't go through anything else.
08:26The window's still intact so that's good. That's crazy.
08:30The Cybertruck is not bulletproof to a .17. Let's try an AR round.
08:38This time we're shooting an AR-15. A .223 is this much bigger than a .17 and it's also moving a
08:44thousand feet faster per second. About 3,200. Quite a bit bigger, quite a bit faster. I have
08:50a feeling this one's going to go through both sides of the door.
08:57Three, two, one.
09:03Yeah, it went straight through.
09:07Clear. It's actually good for replacing though, right by the other hole.
09:10Yeah? Because you're so close to the other one. That's how good of a shot I am. Yeah.
09:16Alright, so that one was a .17 probably and this is the .223. Moment of truth.
09:23Oh shoot. So that's plastic right there. That's really cool. We freaking nailed that though. Look
09:30at this, Jacob. Oh perfect. That's a perfect shot. Hardly even tell anything happened. Is that the
09:35.17? Did it come through? I didn't see anything. But yeah, that's interesting. You can see some
09:40soundproofing in there as well as plastic. Alright, let's try to get the .50 cal in this spot.
09:47In this spot. All the way through the door. So Riley, you think this one's the .17? Yeah,
09:54just because I mean that .223 is moving so much faster so it just goes straight through like
09:59hot knife through butter. Does anyone know how fast a .50 cal goes? I forget off the top of my
10:05head. We need Google. That's nothing. 2,900? That's slower. It's a fat bullet. Slower but so
10:12much bigger. Okay, it's go time. So we know that this bullet is probably going to go through the
10:30door both sides since the previous two did. The thing I'm worried about though is that this is
10:35probably going to shatter the glass even though we're hitting the door just because of how brutal
10:41and large this bullet is. So fingers crossed we don't break the glass because as we know glass is
10:48glass. And glass. All right. Three, two, one.
11:19I think I did all right. I can see through the door from here. That's freaking wild.
11:28Oh my gosh. Look at that. It like starred open. Oh that's crazy. Put my whole finger through that.
11:38What's this side looking like? Hey, that's not bad. That's not bad. What do you think,
11:44Riley? Not bad at all. I was expecting a little more but that's not bad. Yeah,
11:49we might even just leave that. Yeah, if we see if the window will roll down. Oh no,
11:53I forgot about the window. There also seems to be a giant misconception that the windows of the
11:57Cybertruck are bulletproof and they are most definitely not. The armored glass that was
12:02proposed during the initial launch never came to fruition and the Cybertruck glass is most
12:07definitely not bulletproof in any way, shape, or form. It is far too thin for that. Yes!
12:14That's awesome. Back up. Woo! And the truck is still in one piece. There's a few ventilation
12:22holes now, but overall I am very satisfied with how bullet resistant the Cybertruck is.
12:29It works on 9 mil, 22, anything faster than that and there's going to be a hole. But still,
12:34slowing down a bullet is still infinitely better than letting it pass through both sides of the
12:38vehicle. What do you think, Jacob? Do you think you can patch up this hole over here?
12:41That's not too bad. Is it as bad as you thought it was going to be? No, no. I mean,
12:46depending on what you want to do about that. And we can just drop some weld bead in there.
12:51Actually not as thick as it seems on the edges. Is it thinner on the middle of the panel?
12:56Feels like it. It'll butcher your finger. Yeah, that's so starred up in there.
13:00Put it in too far, it can't come back. It's like one of those Chinese finger traps.
13:05Nothing's loose in there. Nothing's shaking around or anything.
13:09There's like a white plastic pulley wheel that we just barely missed.
13:12Oh no, we shot through some wires.
13:23All right, someone from Tesla can tell us where these wires go.
13:26The door seems to be working. Grab your own bullet catching Burnt Damascus Ridge wallet
13:31down in the description. And if you want me to shoot the windows of the Cybertruck,
13:35let me know down in the comments. Thanks a ton for watching, and I'll see you around.
