The tailor deserves more credit. It's one thing to create a lightweight bulletproof material, but it's another to turn it into a stylish suit that actually looks good. That's half the battle! I have been sewing for 15 years now so I can clearly see what a marvel of tailoring this is. Tailoring by itself is already one of the most difficult sewing skills. But to do it with Kevlar? That's another level.

*ADDITIONAL INFO:* *#1:* This video is not intended, nor provided as a guide for fabricating bullet-resistant composites. It is a HIGHLY technical field, and both the fabrics and testing cost tens of thousands of dollars to do -- and we still didn't get good enough results or data to bet our lives on. If you require armor, buy it from a reputable manufacturer who has external testing performed by the National Institute of Justice. *#2:* There is SO much more we could have included in this video -- if you want to learn more, consider becoming a member to see the extended cut ► kzread.info/dash/bejne/aneDr7GcnM_cnLQ.html *#3:* Even though our suit stopped the bullets, if I had worn the suit, I would likely have broken most of my ribs, and possibly died anyway. Bulletproof vests and suits are NOTHING like how they are portrayed in the movies, and especially not the way it is portrayed in John Wick. A thin bullet proof suit is physically impossible. It doesn't matter if you can "stop" the bullet -- the impact energy HAS to go somewhere. And that somewhere is your body. This is why most bullet proof vests and plate armor is so thick -- thickness helps distribute and absorb the impact energy from the bullet. A thin super strong material does not. In fact, there's a good chance that if a super thin bullet proof material existed, you would actually sustain MORE damage to your body, than the bullet simply passing through you. *#4:* UMP5 not MP5 -- Video cut wasn't specific in the final edit -- the Vector shot 9mm FMJ rounds, not .45ACP, we tested that way because 9mm have more penetration power than .45ACP. No .45ACP rounds were shot in this video. The Vector is the closest equivalent to the UMP5, which isn't available in Canada. We also did not test 9mm hollow points, because again, those are easier to block with soft armor. *#5:* Leave any more questions below, and I might do a livestream in the next few days covering your questions!

Very cool! I loved the whole research and all, in trying to achieve a "mission impossible". But...there's this thing I know in Dutch as a maliënkolder, translated a "chain mail" (if correct). Which in a translation to today's tech and all could be a layered composition of carbon-fiber plates, with a thin layer of dampening foam behind it. A bit like a fish - a skin of scales. This to spread the forces in play and to keep one's ribs in one piece. That was the thought I had all along all experiments and testing of all kevlar fabrics, woven or not, composites etc. Slowing down the bullet and its kinetic energy is the key here. Keeping the whole thing flexible enough is a second thing. The scales-approach in the combination with what your team did already, could make it close to bullit-proof.

That is an amazing suit! Great work to everyone involved! This channel is really pushing bounderies of fiction and reality!!

Happy to see James back. I hope he’s doing well, life is tough but seeing James doing well and exploring the engineering mysteries of the world brings me and many more joy.

It is great to see a tailor who cares so much about the success of her work

Sheer thickening fluid should react based on the spreading of sheer forces through the material which acts at the speed of sound. Google's telling me speed of sound in 1125 fps while the 9mm travels at 1200 fps. I'd think you'd want the bullet to slow down to a fraction of the speed of sound to allow the sheer forces to travel through the material and use the most of it. I don't know if there's a way to test how much speed the bullet lost going through each piece of fabric. Maybe matching deformation of the bullet with a known speed to varying depths of kevlar?

The tailor is such a perfectionist that it is admirable. I love watching people that love their craft work. Amazing!

*UMP5 shoots .45ACP -- sorry for the typo! The rest of the video is correct. We only tested with 9mm FMJ rounds since they have more penetration power than a 45. Vector was the closest equivalent to an UMP5 in Canada, which is why we use it for testing. Also, we could have cheated and used hollowpointd, but we didn't 😊 If you need armor, check out Premiere Body Armor ► www.premierbodyarmor.com/hacksmith They have certified slim bullet proof vests that you can easily wear under a suit!

Great video well done guys. Obviously there is a big chance of failure stopping bullets with thin body armor like this but it could definitely save lives in some cases and may be worth pursuing as a protective layer for security personnel. Nice work guys!

@cooperbaxter8068

Not to be too pedantic, but calling it "certified military issue" is a little misleading. The vest used in the video was level 2 soft body armor. Level 1's aren't even sold anymore. Level 2A is the only rating lower than 2, and it's quite rare. Most police departments issue level 3A at a minimum, and level 3 frequently. The US military uses a different rating system than the NIJ, but the issued armor is roughly on par with level 4 by the NIJ standard. The US Army's IOTV, (Improved Outer Tactical Vest) has a NIJ equivalent rating of 3A, without even having the armor plates in it. In other words, the direct comparison in the video was to the almost weakest body armor commercially available. A level that is considered too low for most police work, except in low crime areas. The standard issue military body armor has a higher rating without even having its plates in. More typical users of level IIs are small time night security workers, mall cops, or journalists - people who don't expect to actually get shot at so comfort is a priority. I'm not trying to say that it wasn't an impressive accomplishment - it absolutely is. The suit was both incredibly stylish and effective against small rounds. Even better it was but together by a group who don't typically make armor. But at the same time the vest is a lower rating than my issued helmet, and far below issued body armor. You must recall that for the suit, they essentially took the materials already typically used in soft body armor, and shaped them differently. Hopefully this didn't come across as patronizing, or like I'm trying to correct you. My intention is to share knowledge on the subject I thought you might find interesting. Body armor and ballistics really are fascinating subjects.

There’s a ‘memory’ alloy made of Nickel and Titanium, called Nitinol, which is used a lot in electronic devices, which could be woven into a flexible netting or loose mesh, that could be layered in between layers of Kevlar. It’s tensile strength is so great, that bullets hitting these Nitinol wires, would get caught it, be slightly diced, rather than penetrating. This augmentation of John Wick’s suit material would also make the suit proof against cutting edge attacks with knives stabbing at him, or swords trying to slice him to pieces. Also, if he’s hit with an electric taser, the Nitinol wires will conduct and ground the high voltage around him, rather than let the taser’s charge hurt him. But all titanium alloys are very expensive, so it’s unlikely they will become standard parts of bulletproof vests in general, although the Army often uses it to make a super-tough coating on many of their heavy armored vehicles.

Bahaha, thanks!

There's a new material called Borophene which is stronger than Graphene and more flexible. Can be the future of truly bulletproof suits, if we find a way how to absorb the kinetic energy from the bullet. The muzzle energy of a bullet impact is insane. For a reference, let's assume the force or F=mv, where F is the force, m is the mass of the bullet, and v is the velocity of the bullet. A 5.56×45 round for example has an average energy of 1311 lb/ft (or 181.25 kg/m in metric units). For comparison, a hammer blow that travels 50 ft/s (15.24 m/s) and weights 5 lbs (2.26 kg) has a kinetic energy of around 190 lb/ft (or 26.26 kg/m), 7 times less than a 5.56mm round impact. That's not easy to absorb at all with a thin layer of fabric.

A company I've worked with makes these fabrics, and an old friend used to do the bullet tests!

I can't believe the suit looked so good and managed to stop bullets. Could really tell that this was a passion project of James by how nervous he was for the testing and giddy when it all worked out!

It's an interesting design challenge. The old school thought behind armor is to spread out the area of force, turning a puncture into just an impact. To do that, you need something rigid like metal plates. Instead, you're doing something more akin to catching the bullet with a drop cloth. Which leads to something about the John Wick movies that I really love; John gets the everloving snot beat out of him. Sure, there's no bullet wound, but he's still limping.

I'm sure it's been often conceived, but I like to think that some kind of rigid plating shirt would go underneath this - less to stop the bullet and more to do exactly the one job this suit doesn't - spread out the force. heck even rigid leather plating would take some of the sting out of being punched full force by a bullet.

To be fair there's different types of armour, ceramic plate armour is a little different for example, having significantly worse durability, often only able to stop a couple of shots, but it has much less 'pointed' impact, deformation if you will, as it's made to shatter and spread the force out instead of trying to stop it straight away, however it's also significantly heavier and more cumbersome, kevlar is relatively light and more durable, being able to stop many bullets assuming the structure of the kevlar itself is not too damaged, so 'metal plates' are not the only way to stop a bullet, but there's always trade-offs to different types and the only material, other than of course compounds currently still being researched, that currently could be used to make a suit like this, which, is awesome btw.

This is so dope. I wish there was the budget for a ballistic gel manikin with a skeleton to see bone damage 😍

Using that suit in temperatures above 20⁰C would be very difficult. Also, a bullet doesn't have to kill you to put you out. It's enough to hurt you and with that suit you will get muscle lacerations and broken bones.

Hats off to their scientific approach, step by step data logging and double kudos to the engineer who can also make a super stylish suit!
