Should have lined the skillet with my wife's biscuits. Ain't nothing going thru them.
Lmbo 🤣
Burn!
Wow 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Damn...
😂😂
This is extremely important information for anyone hunting iron skillets, or if you are threatened by rogue skillets in your area.
Yup
Also a good way to punish stubborn and bad skillets.
mothman1967 😁
Placement is much more important than caliber when defending against skillets.
😂😂😂
I think you should’ve used a separate pan for each shot. Each shot compromises the integrity of the pan weakening it, like a bullet resistant vest.
Good point, but then he would have to spend 3x as much.
sure are you buying the skillets ?
agree
Everyone knows UA-camrs are pulling in the big bucks. Buy 3 skillets.
The skillets can cost more than some of the guns he's using.
Cast iron is extremely heavy, but it's also extremely brittle. I used to install tile, and occasionally during remodels we would have to remove old cast iron tubs for replacement, and we found it was easier to shatter them with a sledge hammer than to lug them down 1 or 2 flights of stairs.
Now you know you can just shoot them up into pieces or at least create holes to drag them by
Been there, done that. Waaaaayy easier, Brother!
It's a pain in the dick to stress relieve a huge bathtub, a pan not so much.
I tried sledge hammers with my cast iron tub and was afraid I would break the framing, so I switched to my sawmill and cut up the old tub.
Be Thankful You weren't the Plumber that had to lug them UP the stairs.
It seems to me that the .40 hole was only slightly larger because the bullet hit a bit farther from the edge than the .45 did, so the cavity had room to widen to it's fullest, but since the edge is stronger, the .45's hole didn't have the space to get a full radius of destruction.
You're exactly correct. Corners are always stronger
The .40 is a great round, but then again so is the .357 mag revolver round which nobody talks about these days. I prefer the .45 because I am very comfortable with it. Shoot what you are comfortable with. If it is a .22 LR then so be it. I know I wouldn't want to get shot with a .22 LR, and some of those guns are super-accurate. Peace, Love!!
I just want to say that the second greatest killing implement in the history of warfare is 230 grain, .45 ball ammo!🇺🇸
Also because the 40 is flattened already so expands more on impact.
Also, the 40 was a flat nose
The first problem I noticed was, you didn't "season" the skillet. 🤠
😁😁😁👍👍 thanks for watching Ted!
Lol
@@WHOTEEWHO I think you need to redo this test with a real Skillet a LODGE SKILLET!!!
Did that already...5 other videos with EXPENSIVE LODGE SKILLETS
Omg 😂 that’s what I thought too
Did anyone else see how much more the pan swong when hit with the .45? That thing had a lot of kinetic energy!
The 45 definitely smacked it a lot harder than the others.
Chunking Missiles lol I’d love to see 10mm!
Because it probably barely went through so most of the energy was dumped right into the pan. With good hollow point bullets, all 3 rounds will dump all energy into a human, and they all do comparable damage. Around 350-590 foot pounds for all 3 rounds. Max of 500 for 9mm and 590 for the other two. Average 430 for 9mm and 500 for the other two. Not a significant difference. They're a little more powerful but nothing significant and they are all just relatively "weak" handgun rounds, and all 3 have the capacity to easily kill a man.
Swinging (and movement in the direction of the shot in general) is the sign of momentum transfer (3rd law of Newton), not kinetic energy.
Energy transfer destroys, momentum transfer moves. 40 have a bit more energy than 45 if loaded to the same % of SAAMI maximums and shot from the barrels of the same length. Simply because 40 has much, MUCH higher pressure while just a bit lower area of the cross-section of the bore.
There is no magic,just basic physics. Energy = area of the cross-section of the bore multiplied by the integral of the pressure over the path of the bullet (path in the barrel being from the rearmost part of the widest part of the bullet - so not counting boat tail if present - to the muzzle if you are interested in muzzle energy).
Yeah.45 extremely energy
I think the skillet won here, even after you wasted all your ammo on it , it could still crack you over the head and kill you 😁
😂
Only at very close range. That’s the disadvantage. 😒
YES YES! And less wind drag having 3 vents now
Put a few more holes in it and you have the world's heaviest cheese grater
Yeah right, you can also still fry an egg in the lower right portion of the skillet. Lol
That's what you get when you bring a skillet to a gunfight.
Did you see the handle?
Only on PUBG 🤣
Moral of the story .... "you just can't find a good bullet proof skillet these days
I think your right here, lol
No Ozark trail that’s for sure
Don't copy Clint in 'A Fist Full of Dollars', his vest survived, being the door of a wood store.
@Jeffrey Bone Very true, good quote, "sorry, make that 4 coffins". Definitely don't make good westerns like his any more.
@Jeffrey BoneMy pleasure, I really enjoyed his man with no name trilogy, based on Yojimbo from Japan. Now back in the day, those were great movies, Japanese or American.
The movement of the skillet when the .45acp struck it was all you need to comprehend.🤣
No matter what happens, the 45 acp is my choice
Glock 21 gen 4, CCW for 2 years. No regrets
5 Wars ; it is a proven performer...Spanish American War...WW 1 and WW2 ...Korea & Viet Nam...
Would never want to be on the receiving in of a .45 ACP.
DESIGNED TO REPLACE U.S.CALVARY COLT REVOLER 45 LONG COLT AND JOHN BROWNING DID IT.
OLD WINCHESTER 240 SILVER TIP HOLLOW POINTS .45 ACP MAKE IT ABOUT PERFECT MATCH TO THE FAMOUS .45 LONG COLT.
yup!
.45 is my choice for a side arm. I feel more confident with it and it has been very reliable.
I wish my Grandpa would just get UA-cam.
He used to do tests like this in his garage back in the day.
He would love this stuff.
Considering how brittle cast iron is I am surprised that the skillet was not cracked by the rounds as well as holed.
Word!! Same here...
Hell an air rifle could shoot a hole through a cast iron skeelet!!
...or shattered.
Great video I enjoyed this. People don't realize how hard it is to hit a paper plate at 20 yards with a small pistol, good shooting.
we shoot .45 cal. black powder muzzleloading pistols and revolvers at 25 and 50 yards. 25 yds ain't that hard. 50 yds is a different story.
I mostly expected the results you experienced. The iron in the average skillet is fairly brittle. My cousin worked for a cookware manufacturing concern; he told me that the iron is subjected to some sort of treatment once the skillet is formed to harden it. The spalling around each hole on the backside of the skillet and the lack of a concave quality to the exit suggests the metal is far less elastic than typical plate iron.
It's stress relieved, not hardened.
Ya, no deformation, just pure shear force hole punch
I guess theres differences in cast iron as we shot one about month ago with Ruger 22cal and penetrating was really close.Fastest rounds was sold out so we couldnt get fastest 22cal rounds.
My mom would shoot me with those guns if I even thought about shooting her cast iron skillet 😂😂😂
As she should
Never use a cast iron skillet for body armor!
Nope!
Marty Mcfly would beg to differ
Yep that’s the real moral of this story. Not surprising that is the nature of cast iron.
I know now!
Big Faaaaact's 😎.
Dang....I'm glad i found this comment section...prior to this i had No idea where structural engineers and molecular scientists hung out😂😂😂😂
Legend has it that he’s still trynna redeem himself for that first shot he missed .
I’m torn here. I love my guns, but I also love my iron skillets.
🤪🤪🤪
There can only be one 😈
I like to grab $1 skillets at yard sales. Fun times putting big ass holes in them.
You’re torn? You should see his skillet ...
I think the .45 hit closer to the edge which is why the hole it left was a bit smaller and lopsided. My bet would be if you hit them both well away from the edge the .45 would leave a bigger hole.
Yess sir was thinking same thing
U
Exactly
I agree
Agreed
The reason the .40 made the same size hole as the .45 is due to the round you used. The .40 was a flat tip vs the typical round .45. As seen in 55 seconds into the video.
Standard 40 fmj is flat nose
Every gun video I watch most people seem very knowledgeable and make lucid arguments on weapons and how to use them responsibly.
Thanks for the comparison. It made me proud to know my 40 cal packs a nice wallop.
Thanks for watching Big Ron!
Heck man I just subscribed and rang the bell too. Stay safe
Hey thanks appreciate that! New video every day, quite a bit of awesome stuff coming out in the next couple weeks
Big Ron I carry a Springfield XD Mod. 2 subcompact 40. It's a little snappy for my taste, but I love it.
Springfield XD is a good choice
I'm no rocket scientist but I would have used 3 different skillets. 🐢🐢🐢
Thanks Anthony. Good point
He said they are expensive. At Walmart they are almost 5 dollars each. LMAO This nut is confused.
LOL. I think they are $8. $24 is a whole lotta money for me 🖒🖒thanks for watching!
Well, you will just have to decide what is more important, bullets or cooking implements?
It’s a open field . Calm your tits
45 was closer to the edge. It would be interesting to see a closer shot with the 45 in the middle of the target. I think it would be bigger than the 40.
40 and 45 are actually pretty close. Depends what brand of ammo. People just don’t like the 40cal , mostly because of these UA-camrs
The pan looks like a weird little creature from The Binding of Isaac and its killin me. Hahaha
I finally got one right! I thought all would penetrate through the pans but I was using your rifle video's penetrating 3 skillets as a reference point. Very interesting. Thanks!
Thanks for watching Vic!
The chef in me cried a little 😂
🤣🤣🤣
And grandmas across the world all cried out in unison, as a perfectly good cast iron pan was wasted!
Same 40 I Carry every day. Just something about it I've always loved s&w
I feel like where the 45 hit on the edge that reduced the size of the hole. Look how round the 45 is compared to the 40
I think you meant how round the 40 hole was compared to the 45. The 45 hit closer to the crease so would have made a bigger hole. I fully agree.
I think that all three rounds should have been fired at the center of the skillet... okay you would need 3 different skillets. But yeah had the .45 been on center it would have been larger.
The 40 made a bigger hole because of the flat bullet
@@TomahawkChopa the 40 was only slightly bigger because the 45 hit the edge of the skillet...
.40 has more energy than .45.
Though I'm sure the outcome would be the same, doesn't the skillet lose more and more structural integrity after each hole versus a new skillet?
J D WTW IS CHEAP AND A NUT JOB TO BOOT !!!
Absolutely true
Totally agree, skillet was compromised first round!
Thank you
For some reason, IDK why, this is my favorite of the 9v40v45 comparisons so far.
Thanks for watching David
Lookout! Every time I see an Iron skillet I cant help but think of ,"Throw Mamma From The Train". "YOU LIED TO ME!!!!" BONK!!!🤣
Bottom line: Any of those three calibers will do....pick your preference and practice.
@Thomas Beaty What about 32 cal?
Yep, i agree! Practice is more important than engaging in my-caliber-is -better-than-yours debates
ABSOLUTELY 💯
The pan is a paid actor
😂😂😂
The flat nose on the 40 is why it was biggest
It took a bit for the skillet to stop swinging after the 45. Wonder if it's just where it hit.
Mr. Pan Man,, bring me a dream ,, make it cutest 45 I've ever seen!! 😂
You better just knock it off with that hilarious comment 🤣🤣🤣
0:48 Hank Hill talking about a propane grills.
I get that comment a lot! Thanks for watching :-)
"The Ballad of Buster Scruggs", "Pan Shot! Pan Shot! Pan Shot!"
Only one Chef was harmed in making of this video. He is recovering from a blow to the head from an iron skillet. No food was wasted during the robbery, I mean diplomatic negotiations in procuring the skillet.
Holy crap. I would have guessed 3 bounces just like you. I'm surprised at the results. Now you have me wondering what would happen with a .22 and a .380.
Surprised me
In the event of a skillet apocalypse, I'm with you!
😂😂😂 thanks Ed!
Cast iron is kind of brittle to shock compared to the steels. Different cast irons will do differently and react differently to the shock of the bullet but I tend to think a 22 mag will put a hole it in. Like others have said, look at how the 45 hit closest to the rim. More important, look how the 45 moved the skillet--that sucker was in it's death throe. It's satisfying to know when the Skillet Zombie apocalypse happens just about anything will do. The 45 created violent skillet death throes as soon as it hit. Can you try throwing a hammer at the skillet next time?
Lmao I thought it was Todd from Breaking Bad for a second
I thought you were using a real cast iron skillet. That's a Chinese copy of a skillet. The real ones are almost 1/2" thick. A .22 would punch a hole in that one you used.
Probably right there :-) Thanks Daniel
no doubt , definitely a factor to consider, my grandmothers old cast iron skillets could stop a tomahawk missile :P
Bahahaha... no skillet is 1/2 inch thick. None
You are right because the skillet my dad uses I would be amazed even if a .357 could bust it lol
Agreed.👍
Obviously you didn’t season your skillet before using it.
Mom said bring her Skillet back in the house she's making eggs in the morning😑
I was wrong again as I need not go to Vegas and do any betting...Cool testing....Good stuff...
I have the 40 S&W and will stay with it.
👍👍
40 H&K here. Wouldn't swap it for any
Same here man the 40 SW SD all the way
Glock 22 .40 S&W👍
Love the Smith & wesson 40 also the Colt 1911 45
If the 45 hit the center I think the whole would have been much bigger
Well done for getting 3 out of 4 from 20 yards. Many tests I see are from much closer. I wonder what the results would look like with non jacketed rounds.
How the hell will I cook my bacon now?
Microwave
It works good in the microwave, get ye one o' them plastic microwave cookers.
Bro, Ive punched a hole through a cast iron skillet with a CCI Mini Mag.
Who_Tee_Who flicks are always relaxing and entertaining. Often, they are also educational. I am amazed you never run out of things to shoot.
Hey buddy I really enjoyed the video! Thanks for taking the time to put this together and for posting. Mike, San Antonio Texas.
Thanks for watching!
I thought they would ricochet off. Boy was I wrong. And I thought the .45 would have won the 'hole size' contest if it had been hit closer to center. I think hitting so close to the edge kept the size down. jmo. Loved the video. Nice shooting!
I thought they might bounce off too. Why I stood so far away 😂
Yup i like shooting the milk jugs!
So I had a nightmare last night and wondered why. Then I remembered there was a Hi-Point C9 under my pillow.
I keep a C9 by me in the kitchen. And a JHP 45 beside me in the bedroom. HP's are crude, but effective. I've got $250 in the pair. HP has great customer service as well.
Nothing wrong with hi point
@@devincruse6736 my wife bought me a 9mm hi point and it shoots flawlessly!!!! A good hot round and A hi point is all I need for the house. Well, besides my shotgun. Stay safe!!
Something to keep in mind is that cast iron is surprisingly brittle despite it's density and weight. I thought that the 45 would have split or fractured the entire pan.
This is very true. You can split a cast iron skillet by dropping them.
@@dmscholl4 LOL. Been there done that. 😀
@@nickyp310 oh no!!!
I think the .45 won really because you hit closer to the brim on that one and had you hit the center of the pan it would have been a much bigger hole. look at the widest point blown out on the .45 and it's a lot bigger than either the .40 or 9mm
I would be curious to see what a 125 grain .357 Magnum would do to Cast Iron.
Excellent demonstration, thanks for taking the time to put this video together! I've yet to shoot a .40, but from everything, I continue to see I'm Very Impressed!
Thanks for watching!
Next time I am approached in a dark alley by a cast iron skillet, I now know which pistol I should draw.
The best non stick skillet ever made! I can't watch!
The 45 had a LOT more movement.
So hanging some cast iron fry pans all over your body wouldn't be effective armor? Damn!
Nope probably a bad idea 😂 thanks Mark!
Real thick!
Mark...Ha, that's what I was thinking...LOL..!!
😂🖒
Not in the least
That must be new cast iron skillet. If you were to shoot my grandmas ancient, seasoned skillet, the skillet would probably just flinch and then it would just cook you a mess of fried chicken afterwards to show you it still loved you . 😂 (s)
Glad to see you are shootin a crappy Chinese Ozark skillet and not a Lodge. I was getting ready to be pissed off...
Cool video.
Thanks for the video, 40cal looks better than expected.
Thanks for watching!
It looks like the .45 hit the rim of the skillet and was deflected. You really should have used three skillets
Should have huh. I dont think it hit the rim. May have tho. Thanks for watching!
Going the cheap way one skillet rot all three guns
Yep, the test was a flub dub failure.
🖒🖒
I was thinking the same thing.. also that look like cheap cast iron pans... actually I kno they were bc of the symbol on the bottom... use a antique lodge pan, those super thick ones... good metal was used back then. 😎
That's why my wife only burns my eggs once per iron skillet. The skillets just can't handle the wrath of a pissed off egg eater.
After watching this video, I'm reconsidering covering my head with a cast iron skillet if somebody shoots at me.
That's the thinnest cast iron skillet I've ever seen.
My US made Lodge skillets are thicker than this Chinese manufactured Ozark Trail junk.
I was saying that exact same thing.
Well there goes the Hamburger Helper,........... sandwiches for dinner again. :D
Argh! I love the helper! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the good and practical things you need to know if really want to "be prepared." I know, I am just a big boy scout too. Boys and their toys. Guns, cars and girls.
What they made a 45 ACP?
I (still) be rocking the 45 Colt!

This is the results of big becoming HUGE! At this point she was speechless(?).
The way the pan reacts when it is hit by the 9mm compared to how it reacts to the .45 makes me think there's something to the whole "knock down power" of the .45
Me too! Thanks for watching!
The difference in the way the skillet bounced around is due the the difference in energy transferred AND the difference in shot placement. The 9mm bullet was only 115gr, the .45ACP bullet was 230 grams -- twice the weight, but the .45 bullet was almost certainly travelling slower.
Although both mass and velocity contribute to the muzzle energy, the muzzle energy is proportional to the mass while proportional to the square of the velocity. The velocity of the bullet is a more important determinant of muzzle energy. For a constant velocity, if the mass is doubled, the energy is doubled; however, for a constant mass, if the velocity is doubled, the muzzle energy increases four times.
In this case, we are not looking exactly at muzzle energy, but at the downrange energy of the round, however at 20 yards neither bullet will have slowed enough to make much difference.
The TYPICAL velocity for the 115gr 9mm is around 1,246 fps. while the TYPICAL velocity for the 230gr .45ACP is around 850 fps. The actual energy of the 9mm round would have been about 10-12% GREATER than the energy of the .45 round hitting the skillet, but we don't know how much of the energy was actually transferred to the skillet.
IF the faster 9mm round actually passed completely through the skillet it might not have transferred all of its energy to the skillet while the slower .45 round could have been stopped by the skillet (even while blasting a hole through it). Without a high speed camera to get ultra-slow motion video there isn't any way to see what happened as each bullet hit the skillet. As an educated GUESS, my guess is that both bullets transferred very similar amounts of energy to the skillet -- certainly NOT enough difference in energy transfer to account for the visible difference in how the skillet bounced around from the impacts.
So, why did the skillet bounce around so much more dramatically when struck by the .45 round? I would expect that SHOT PLACEMENT had the most to do with it. The 9mm round struck barely off center so it had to try to move the whole skillet almost straight back. The .45 round struck way out near the edge, causing the skillet to spin around, which is what we saw happen.
I 'll stick with the 9.mm and .45 they both have been WAR TESTED and the .40 is just one of the new fancy new comers like the 10.mm as well
i have a feeling a .40 or 10mm will do just as good if you are okay with the 9mm and the .45ACP
No doubt the .45 is THE go-to round for stopping/knockdown power
sir you will have to make your cornbread mix really thick now
Super thick ! Thanks for watching the truth! 😂🖒
Lmao
It looks like the bullets are flattening out then punching through the pan. Quite awesome.
Hey, you finally found what a cast iron skillet is good for.
Guess cast iron would not make a good bullet proof vest armor.
Gonna be damn difficult to make eggs in the morning with that!
Yes it is! 😂 thanks for watching!
That pan is for swiss cheese omelets.
James Cooper ... it’s now a strainer (colander). When you want to drain things greater than 2 inches in diameter.
This is about to be a really fun video
I agree
I served in vietnam and the colt 1911 45 acp did a great job for close in targets but my froveite to carry was the PIG (M-60_). pleiku 4th div.
Great Video...That's Why I Cook on the " New oiless Stick Free Copper Pans with the Lifetime Warranty"
GREAT Shootin WHO_TEE, Those skillets are heavy but pretty brittle. You can kinda see when you hold them up and show the holes. Great stuff as always my fellow American. Hey Wensday(4th) is my birthday. Maybe if you have some old appliances laying around you can see what those 3 cals will go through.
Happy early birthday Gary!!! We will shoot off some fireworks in your honor!
Gary Allen Happy birthday.
Darrell Blake Thank you very much for the Birthday wish my friend
WHO_TEE_WHO Thank you so much. I love your Videos. Yo ur vids keep getting better and better
Gary Allen happy birthmas...
Yes I think that would be a gay idea shoot up some stuff.
40 will always win.
Id love to see a couple skillets lined up and test how many would stop a bullet, same calibers used here!
Round per round the 45acp is always gonna be more deadly at handgun fighting distances if you can handle it. If your better w a 9mm then by all means rock it. It's a fairly adequate caliber and w less recoil and a little more capacity. I hate arguing calibers cause the die hard 9mm club always think your telling them that they got a small dick when u say use it if its better for you and they get offended. I like plinking w and carry a 9mm sometimes. But im 6,4 235 and stout. So the recoil on a 45acp isn't an issue for me and in a semi auto if a weapon holds 8 or more is plenty. Especially if you carry a spare mag. Most times I rock a 7 shot 357magnum w a speed load. And I'm not an old head. I'm in my late 30,s. To me its just common sense that bigger holes are better w semi,s. But all my Glocks I've ran the hell out of and they will occasionally jam. My quality revolvers never have.
I can shoot 9mm all day long. After about half hour with the 45, my wrist is telling me it’s time to stop, and I’m anticipating the recoil. And, frankly, I just don’t enjoy it. And I think that’s really what it comes down to. If you don’t like shooting your firearm, then you’re not going to practice with it. And although I’m a “woman of a certain age,“ I do love shooting shotguns. But 45s just hurt me. We are all different and weird. 😊
The placement of the shot is also a big factor. For the 40, the shot landed on the upper portion of the skillet and the skillet didn't move as much (little energy loss). For the 45, the shot landed on the bottom portion of the skillet and the skillet moved a lot (loss of energy). Next time, probably hold the skillet so it doesn't move and the result will be more consistent.
Plus the rib on the outside adds alot of strength
Very nice . Pretty deadly stuff. That 40 sure would be a nice side arm in the wild. Maybe scare the bears away ?
If I ever get attacked by a chef, I'll be ready. Nice stray backdrop too.
Something to look at about this test is the movement of the pan when hit the faster 9, and 40, move the pan,a little but, Mr 45, blow's it dam near threw the back stop,👍👍👍 pretty cool stuff
Thanks for watching!!! 45 put a whoopin on it!
So many factors. Shape of the bullet actually has something to do with the result. And the nine might have bounced off if you had not hit the very center where is the iron was thinner due to brand imprint on the back. 40 is flat nose. So it took a bigger chunk than it would have if it had been spear nosed. 45 hit close to the edge so the whole was not as big as it would have been if you had hit the middle. All in all a very dangerous test actually. If the iron had been a little thicker… You could’ve needed more than goggles. Fun to watch.
The key point of this demonstration seems to be the best pistol round for defense against an aggressive cast iron skillet is the 40 S & W.
This video does nicely. Still surprised with the 9mm though. Thought it'd just bounce off with no hole. Good shooting.
Good season skillet , looks like nothing stuck
Brand new off wally world shelf 😂 thanks for watching!
