Video of a guy shooting an operating LCD monitor with airsoft gun...

[Martingale00]

Here's the vid....it's nothing too amazing but it shows how an LCD reacts when being penetrated by a projectile. It's not a real gun, it's a replica Desert Eagle firing airsoft pellets. They're usually 6mm or 8mm pellets firing at around 400 feet per second. It gives you an idea how your LCD display would distort if it was penetrated.

Whoa man...some of those shots made some awesome effects. Still kind a waste of the monitor...even if it was broken.

 

[Archangel]

Even after 2 or 3 shots, the screen was running. LOL

They should have thrown knifes at it.

Okay, who's going to be the first one to take their monitor outside with a real Desert Eagle and pop a .50 caliber round through it?

 

[Shane]

im suprised it stayed running...i thought after one shot it would just go off like dead

Nice effects though.
