In this video, Scott from Kentucky Ballistics conducts an experiment to determine the minimum speed at which a 9mm bullet becomes lethal. He uses a ballistic dummy lab zombie torso with lifelike flesh, bones, and organs, and shoots it with different types of 9mm ammunition at varying speeds.
The experiment starts with a slow speed of 165 feet per second, which is not lethal. Scott then increases the speed to 328 feet per second, which breaks a rib but does not cause significant damage. He continues to increase the speed, with each shot causing more damage to the zombie torso.
The results show that:
* 165 feet per second is not lethal
* 328 feet per second breaks a rib but is not lethal
* 509 feet per second causes significant damage but is not lethal
* 800-1000 feet per second is lethal, causing significant damage and exit wounds
Finally, Scott uses a Russian 4-gauge shotgun to shoot the zombie torso, which completely demolishes it, demonstrating that it is definitely in the lethal range.
Here are the key facts extracted from the text:
1. The experiment aimed to determine the speed at which a 9mm bullet becomes lethal.
2. The experimenter used a ballistic dummy lab zombie torso as the target.
3. The zombie torso was made of lifelike flesh, bones, and organs.
4. The experimenter used a 9mm pistol with different barrel lengths and ammunition types.
5. The speeds tested were between 165 and 1027 feet per second.
6. A slingshot was used to test the speed of a round at 153 feet per second.
7. The experimenter found that 165 feet per second was not lethal.
8. At 328 feet per second, the bullet broke the zombie's rib but did not penetrate far.
9. At 425 feet per second, the bullet went through the zombie's body but did not cause significant damage.
10. At 509 feet per second, the bullet made it past the zombie's rib but did not exit the body.
11. At 812 feet per second, the bullet caused significant damage to the zombie's body.
12. At 866 feet per second, the bullet hit the zombie's shoulder blade and stopped at the back.
13. At 946 feet per second, the bullet caused an exit wound on the zombie's body.
14. At 1027 feet per second, the bullet caused significant damage to the zombie's body.
15. The Russian 4-gauge shotgun was tested and found to be in the lethal range.
16. The experiment concluded that 800-1000 feet per second is the lethal range for a 9mm bullet.
