Video: .50 Cal vs. Titanium at 90 Degrees

Just a warning: This is a really bad idea. Do not attempt this at home.

Edwin Sarkissian, who you probably know by now for all of his YouTube videos, brings us yet another video we can’t seem to look away from. This time, Edwin brought a piece of titanium with him to the range, and he’s about to find out why it’s such a bad idea to shoot it at something that will ricochet at a 90 degree angle.

Watch what happens in the video below; oh, and watch your head!:

So many bad ideas in one video, but Edwin redeems himself by being prepared at a moment’s notice when something really bad almost happened.

After shooting the titanium block the second time, a fire ignites in the dry grass surrounding the area. Fortunately, Edwin was prepared and immediately ran over with a fire extinguisher to put out the flame. Just a few more minutes and that fire could have really taken off – a little too close for comfort there!
