The video is in Ukrainian, but needs no words:



The LCD is coated in a new kind of "crystal sapphire" that is supposed to be impervious to harm... and the results are astonishing!

Yeah, but it was only a hand crossbow :)

I'm constantly amazed at thge stuff you and guys like Joe Bondi dredge up from the depths of human ingenuity.  Speaking of which, I am almost finished this year's Darwin Award winners.  For the first time it includes a section on women.  Seems they are, in lesser numbers, just asw stupid as men.

Yea, but I want to see what it looks like after they turn loose a bunch of 7th graders on that monitor!

Even more disturbing....

A friend forwarded me this clip of the Hero System 5th Edition Rulebook being put through a ballistics test:



Somewhat boring after the shooting - they open the book count the pages on how far in some of the bullets made it before stopping.
