The gelatin expands to absorb the impact of the bullet. Pretty neat. picked by queenofhearts 10 months ago

LOVE the slow motion caps!

Great thing about that is that it was only gel.

An Armor Piercing round that hits a solid object (armor, bone, teeth, etc.) doesn't stop it's momentus trajectory, unfortunately.

Normally, when it hits it's most common target (human bone) it begins a tumbling motion. If you can imagine a small shard of super-heated metal tumbling at 200+MPH and bouncing from bone to bone... well... don't really need to elaborate on what a .762 round could do to the inside of an American/British/German/Canadian soldier...
