He's obviously talking about nilered's result. I have no idea what you people are on about with 45cm, 45cm of anything besides styrofoam will stop a bullet.

I have no idea how you read this comment thread and conclude that obviously he's talking about nilred's result and not the comments he was replying to. It's not obvious at all, in fact I don't know how you arrived at this conclusion.
I have no idea how you could read spacebacon's comment and conclude that he believes damn near half a meter of plywood would be insufficient to stop a 9mm bullet. That's so absurd it should have stopped you in your tracks and had you reevaluate what it was spacebacon was saying. How can you seriously believe he was claiming to have experience shooting at half a meter of plywood? The very premise is absurd.

Either spacebacon is completely insane, or he was talking about nilered's video. You chose the 'he's insane' interpretation. I say you're obviously wrong.
