The above video is 4 minutes, 18 seconds long. I had initially seen a shortened version
on the "SCI"ence channel.
Bullet used : .22 LR, Stinger, 32 grains, JHP, 1640 FPS (feet per second).
Firearm used: Ruger 10/22 PS90. It's got a scope, which was not needed for the point blank shot.
Conclusion - The thick viscous nature of the smaller gummy bear in front allowed minimal penetration
of the round, protecting the larger gummy bear behind. A pistol would probably have a slower FPS.
Over and out. Enjoy. :-)

Everyone knows a .22 isn't a large enough round for bears. Sheesh!!

Hmm, who knew a bag of Haribo could save your life?!
If you carry a gun, people call you paranoid. Nonsense! If you carry a gun, what do you have to be paranoid about?
