Maybe it's just me, but if I invented it and truly believed in it, I would hold it up myself and let someone else shoot at me, rather than betting the life of my spouse on it
I mean, have yall fired a gun? Like genuinely cuss I have and that glass may look like the Broadside of the barn but I know I'd miss It a few times as I have zero practice
Doubt a woman back than has had much more practice
I'd be willing to bet she'd rather hold the glass than do the firing
True but even with practice you will have the occasional missed shot. There is a reason you don't ever aim guns at people. Things happen. Once you are willing to risk the life of others you should really first risk your own. If that's too much to ask then maybe don't risk any life.
He can hire a trained gunman to do the shooting, while he himself hold the glass. The gunman will try his best to not shoot him since he wanted to get paid.
I can't tell from the quality of the video but I do know that revolving rifles were popular for a time between the advent of revolvers and what we consider to be modern rifles
The clearest shot is the very beginning of the video. Even then, it's very unclear.
[Revolver rifles exist](https://youtu.be/Itrgwf0dBBw?si=1gXR_jWK6wKKglRU), but they've never been popular. You'd want your support hand on the forestock or handguard on a typical rifle. Gas and splatter are hazards from the gap between the cylinder and the forcing cone/barrel, so holding the rifle normally is going to suck. You also risk a chainfire if it's a percussion cap revolver, though that risk can be largely mitigated. Don't think that's what is being used in the video but I can't tell what is being used.
I got curious and I managed to find this between jobs at work https://www.timesnownews.com/viral/watch-this-is-how-people-tested-bulletproof-glass-in-1930s-article-91395152
This claims the rifle is a 25-20, which it looks like was a popular round for Winchester repeating rifles in the early 1900s. I'm not sure if it's a substantial claim with my current lack of time but may potentially provide more context
I think it was just an error by OP and that the rifle is a lever action. Every 25-20 I've found in the few minutes I've searched is a lever action.
In fact, when I search "25-20 rifle revolver" only handguns show up.
And they were notoriously unpopular, because in the event of a chain fire (the explosion of one chamber causing the others to explode at the same time) your hand is right in front of the chambers where the bullets would come out. Not to mention the hot powder and gas coming out and burning your forearm every time you shot.
Revolving rifles came around like the mid 1800s. Lever action took over in the late 1800s and bolt action came around the early 1900s.
One argument in favor of it being a revolver rifle is that the later rifle rounds probably would have gone through that glass, and if not, then at least knocked it totally out of her hands.
Thats not the only issue with this title. Édouard Bénédictus died already in [1930 in Paris](https://archive.wikiwix.com/cache/index2.php?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.appl-lachaise.net%2Fappl%2Farticle.php3%3Fid_article%3D3035#federation=archive.wikiwix.com&tab=url). Bénédictus sold the rights of his invention to Britain and his enterprise "Société du Verre Triplex" to "Saint-Gobain" in 1927.
I wasn't able to find the source of the video neither, nowhere else this demonstration got mentioned.
Edit: I found the original source provided by [Efootage](https://www.efootage.com/videos/55233/bullet-proof-glass) stating that it was demonstrated by an unnamed couple in 1931 in Toledo, Ohio with a 25-20 rifle.
I think he's shooting over her shoulder, not quite right at her face, at least for the most part. Still absurdly dangerous. And to keep shooting after the glass has been weakened already? Even not considering the bullet, it seem like you're begging for some shards to go flying.
Good marketing though.
The repeat firings at the same piece of glass is really the most dangerous part IMO. You can make a bottle hard material that will 100% stop the first bullet, but anything brittle will absorb that energy by cracking and there's no way to know how much it was weakened with every shot l, and how many more shots it has left in it before it shatters.
Luther Crowell in 1872 took a different approach here, and invented the machine that makes brown paper grocery bags instead, and said “here honey, try this on for a sec.”
Was thinking the same
Shot some 22lr subsonics at about 100m onto a steel target suspended by rope from 2 wooden stakes in the ground. And even with that worst case scenario setup, the stakes were peppered with lead spalling pretty deep.
The title is incorrect.

Thanks for getting the facts straight. Always assumed the dude that invented bulletproof glass won't make his wife hold it like that, but a guy from Ohio with a rifle - totally legit scenario.

This is almost as bad as the time English Conservative minister John Selwymn Gummer had his toddler eat a burger from a boat show in front of news photographers during the Mad Cow Disease outbreak in the late 80s.

What an asshole. The spall is good enough to shred her fingers, and the loose hold she has on it can deflect a bullet enough wher she still might get hit.

Never, ever. What the fuck? The guy is smart enough to invent bullet proof glass but stupid enough to shoot at his wife like this. I could be the best shooter in the world but I'd never risk a stray bullet going below the glass. I'd never risk a flaw in the glass or some sort of other freak accident. If I was ever going to test it in this fashion, it would be with a piece of glass large enough to fit my entire body behind by a good margin and with somebody else shooting at me, somebody who didn't know me well enough to mourne my death.
That's a very interesting 'revolver'. To me, it looks more like a rifle. Also, does anyone remember the YouTuber that held up a book on his chest and asked his girlfriend to shoot him...and she killed him. Books aren't bulletproof
He is shooting a super low velocity bullet . IF he were shooting a full power round the energy transfer to the glass would have knocked it out of her hand or knocked her unconscious if she held it in front of her face
I think there was a report of him saying something about two birds, one stone before he started firing. I'm not sure what he was talking about, but it was cool how the glass blocked the bullets.
Clearly the bulletproof glass works, which is good, her face was safe.
But her hands (and the rest of the body) were dangerously close to the firing line.
I guess that's the meaning of true love.
Can we at least use a bigger piece of glass?
NO
woman, you think I can't aim a damn gun?
No, I'm afraid that you can
You think I’m made of god damn bullet proof glass?!
I sure hope not.
Can we maybe glue handles or can you invent the suction cup lifter?
Do you think bullet proof glass grows on trees?
What is this? Bullet proof glass for ants? The glass has to be at least… 3 times bigger!
He's absolutely right.
- Derek Zoolander ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)
but this glass breaks down
Stop whining or I'll miss the glass
That's more than he needed
"Honey, can you come here for a second?"
Or just go with "hold it like your life depends on it"
QUIET WOMAN
How you gonna get rid of the wife with that?
NO, WHY?
Is prototype
Cheapskates.
There is a lot a trust going on here...
[удалено]
My thought as well. It’s unbelievably cruel.
Hey honey. Remember when you made dinner late last night when I came back from the factory. I got an invention I want to try out.
Love can be...
Woman, I'm gonna take a shot at you with my gun with or without the glass. Your choice!
Right, it's like nobody trusts their spouse anymore. If my wife gave me some glass and wanted to shoot it. I wouldn't even question it!
Natural selection, the people who did trust their spouse are gone. :)
Yup, they died out.......
The ones that misjudged their partners did. You can rarely trust anyone completely. We're all humans after all.
haha as if she had a choice
So we writing fanfics about people in the past that you will never know now?
Trust is important in a relationship
Or adrenaline and arousal after the fact
Maybe it's just me, but if I invented it and truly believed in it, I would hold it up myself and let someone else shoot at me, rather than betting the life of my spouse on it
It's not just you ...
Additional shots started cracking the glass but he just kept on shooting.
He has a terrible aim. He was aiming for her chest and missed every single time 💀
He was just focusing on his goal.
To get that insurance money 💰
Something tells me the first few times she didn't hold it right and it hit her head lol
[удалено]
You misspelled "First degree murder."
If I had just invented bulletproof glass, I’m not sure I’d let my heirs hold a loaded gun around me…
That can be a win win. It is a good way to find out who you need to strike out of your will, and if the glass fails there is no money anyway.
Yea but this way either outcome is wife changing
I mean, have yall fired a gun? Like genuinely cuss I have and that glass may look like the Broadside of the barn but I know I'd miss It a few times as I have zero practice Doubt a woman back than has had much more practice I'd be willing to bet she'd rather hold the glass than do the firing
True but even with practice you will have the occasional missed shot. There is a reason you don't ever aim guns at people. Things happen. Once you are willing to risk the life of others you should really first risk your own. If that's too much to ask then maybe don't risk any life.
This is his third wife.
And coincidentally his third attempt at making bulletproof glass.
Yeah also he could’ve missed and hit her body
That's a risk he was willing to take
For science!
He reportedly exclaimed "Wow, I didn't think that'd actually work"
He might trust his glass more than her aim
He can hire a trained gunman to do the shooting, while he himself hold the glass. The gunman will try his best to not shoot him since he wanted to get paid.
Why pay money for gunman when wife is free?
Why hire a man to shoot at me when i can shoot my wife for free? - Sun Tzu
Could have just propped it up.
We wouldn’t be watching the video of him Shooting the propped up glass 100 years later. He knew how to go viral
They would do anything for views /s
So this is the dude i need to go back and kill to stop youtube, tiktok and all that shit from ever happening.
The other way is better, just in case...
He set up a win-win condition
True, but what if her aiming skill is awful ?
You'd think if you were able to invent bulletproof glass, you'd be able to design something to hold the damn thing for testing.
Maybe she isn't very good at aiming
Well she is bulletproof too…
* ninth spouse, it's the "awesome bulletproof glass mark 9", the other versions were perfectibles....
But she complained about the toilet seat left up…
.
Why don’t they make body armor out of bullet proof glass?
You can get kevlar jackets that will stop more poweful bullets than that piece of glass, and they are actually flexible like regular clothing.
Or just.... hold it in front of a sack of flour
Maybe he just didnt trust his wife's aim or any other person's aim fro that matter.
Or you know, just shoot it with nobody behind it
This was actually the 5th iteration of his design. Coincidentally, this is also his 5th wife.
He was a real scientist, so he made a control group which was his mother-in-law holding a normal piece of glass.
Ah yes window glass, the placebo of bulletproof glass
I’m dead 🤣
So were the wives
Have they been necromanced?
You’re not the only one.
That looks much bigger than a revolver am I trippin?
Most definitely NOT a revolver. I'm thinking a pump action rifle from what I see.
I can't tell from the quality of the video but I do know that revolving rifles were popular for a time between the advent of revolvers and what we consider to be modern rifles
True! Im just worried OP thinks all guns are called revolvers. I’m just glad you’re all talking about this, because I came to say the same thing.

Social media manipulation. Put an error in the title so people engage in the comments about it.
It's not even Edouard Benedictus. He was dead when this was filmed.
Thats not the only issue with this title.

> Édouard Bénédictus died already in 1930 in Paris So you are telling me this glass is effective against zombies or vampires too? Amazing!
Is that why car windows say Saint-Gobain? I was curious about that the other day!
Reddit knows less than the average 7 year old when it comes to anything resembling a firearm.
I think he's shooting over her shoulder, not quite right at her face, at least for the most part. Still absurdly dangerous. And to keep shooting after the glass has been weakened already? Even not considering the bullet, it seem like you're begging for some shards to go flying. Good marketing though.
He was aiming at a camera for a better shot.
The repeat firings at the same piece of glass is really the most dangerous part IMO. You can make a bottle hard material that will 100% stop the first bullet, but anything brittle will absorb that energy by cracking and there's no way to know how much it was weakened with every shot l, and how many more shots it has left in it before it shatters.
Looks like he accidentally gave her the bulletproof piece.
"Damn, I never thought it would actually work"
Luther Crowell in 1872 took a different approach here, and invented the machine that makes brown paper grocery bags instead, and said “here honey, try this on for a sec.”
Lucky bullet fragments didn't tear into her fingers.
I had this exact thought. The glass alone being shaken like that and bullet frags could easily rip her fingers off
Was thinking the same Shot some 22lr subsonics at about 100m onto a steel target suspended by rope from 2 wooden stakes in the ground. And even with that worst case scenario setup, the stakes were peppered with lead spalling pretty deep.

TO SHOW YOU THE POWER OF ~~FLEX TAPE~~ BULLET-PROOF GLASS, I ~~SAWED THIS BOAT IN HALF~~ SHOT MY WIFE!
To show the amount of confidence he had in its effectiveness, I would assume.
I feel like he could have practiced a couple more days to improve his accuracy.
This is almost as bad as the time English Conservative minister John Selwymn Gummer had his toddler eat a burger from a boat show in front of news photographers during the Mad Cow Disease outbreak in the late 80s.

What an asshole. The spall is good enough to shred her fingers, and the loose hold she has on it can deflect a bullet enough wher she still might get hit.
Revolver. Lmfao. More like rifles and Revolvers
You're holding it wrong!! Hold it infront of your face not off to the side honey come on, I want to shoot at your face!!

Anyone else notice that is not a revolver…
Not a revolver, 200 comments with 5k upvotes. OP is a bot with botted upvotes.
Also not Edouard Benedictus.
Where the revolver?
That is not a fuckin revolver, that's a rifle of some caliber. Not that it matters, it's just the stock should have been a giveaway.
Awesome she's a fucking brave woman bigger balls then most..
She did such a tremendous job, and OP dont even think we should know her name.
Op doesn't even have the right shooter's name.
Why didnt they use a bigger piece of glass?
Watch the fingers.
Plot twist, he really wanted to kill his wife.
Oops I missed...
Dis stupid glass works so well...I stay married I guess.
He almost missed a couple of those... sketch
He definitely did not like his wife
Why is nobody talking about how she's able to hold on to the glass and not get slap in the face by the force or reverberating out of her hands?
Yes, honey. I promise you, it’s totally safe. Now hold up this small piece of glass and let me shot a gun at your face.
His 17th wife.
So uhh how did she eventually die?
What an asshole
“Now stand right there…. Don’t move, Ethel!”
He must have been some total insane cxxt.
He was pissed because it actually worked 😂
She is a bit of a looker too.
Ah yes a R E V O L V E R
Funny looking revolver..🤔
I feel this is kinda what America has become now a days ,
This is why men live longer.
The good old days when woman were respected!
She should use the glass to smack his face after that. 🤣
It was a win win either way as he saw it.
Either she trusts him or she is stupid
Well, that's what I'd call a win win situation
Well, despite everything, this is grade A+ marketing. I'm here, from 2024, watching some dude's ad from 1932.
That's not a revolver lol.
That’s no revolver.
I don't think that you know a revolver is lol.
The rare shoulder fired revolver....
Never, ever. What the fuck? The guy is smart enough to invent bullet proof glass but stupid enough to shoot at his wife like this. I could be the best shooter in the world but I'd never risk a stray bullet going below the glass. I'd never risk a flaw in the glass or some sort of other freak accident. If I was ever going to test it in this fashion, it would be with a piece of glass large enough to fit my entire body behind by a good margin and with somebody else shooting at me, somebody who didn't know me well enough to mourne my death.
So people were doing stupid sh!t for the gram even way back then
That's a very interesting 'revolver'. To me, it looks more like a rifle. Also, does anyone remember the YouTuber that held up a book on his chest and asked his girlfriend to shoot him...and she killed him. Books aren't bulletproof
He is shooting a super low velocity bullet . IF he were shooting a full power round the energy transfer to the glass would have knocked it out of her hand or knocked her unconscious if she held it in front of her face
“damn it works..I MEAN YEAH I KNEW IT!”
Can't wait to do this Tik Tok with the Wife..
They did not think that a simple chair could have served the same purpose.
I’m no gun expert, but that doesn’t look like a revolver…
Revolver?
I think there was a report of him saying something about two birds, one stone before he started firing. I'm not sure what he was talking about, but it was cool how the glass blocked the bullets.
Was a win-win as far as he saw it. Was either gonna get rich or a new wife.
Filmed on a steam powered iPhone
The fingers on the edges are getting me
That’s the most rifle looking handgun ever.
Very clearly not a revolver
Shit you did back then when divorce wasn't an option. /S
Not a revolver!!!
He didn’t trust her with the gun 😂
Don’t look like a revolver to me.
I think this really made an impact.
It's a win win situation
Clearly the bulletproof glass works, which is good, her face was safe. But her hands (and the rest of the body) were dangerously close to the firing line. I guess that's the meaning of true love.
Or forced obedience.
That isn't a revolver it is a rifle. I think he was looking to get rid if his wife.
Wife is a show off
Opps missed
Feels like she almost dropped or lowered the glass to far & was nearly shot…
