Video: Kentucky Ballistics Tries Out Medieval Weapons

A further continuation of my Medieval theme today. In this video, Kentucky Ballistics gathers together a ballistic gel head and torso to test some Medieval weapons against modern ballistic helmets and body armor. Of course, an experienced knight or soldier would have aimed for unprotected areas--of which there is quite a bit using modern ballistic armor--but it does show that the modern armor does a fairly good job of protecting those areas that the armor covers.
