Many people have mentioned steel plate. Remember, lots of schools have metal detectors. Also remember that body armor is prohibited in some places so the AR plates, the Kevlar book bags, etc. may not be available to everyone. then there's the matter of cost. The ceramic tile was $1.97 How much does the tactical back pack cost?
And remember, you have to get your books out of your bag without everyone seeing the tile. So the armor has to be under the books even if it may be more effective on top of them.
Would a school tell the Parents that their child cannot have a bullet proof backpack?
just buy your kid a lvl 4 bookbag plate and be done
Something to consider as well is that you could probably make an effective bullet stop with several layers of ceramic and not worry with the Kevlar or poly.
As stupid as it may sound, and trust me, I doubt these arguments are being made in good faith in the first place, if body armor is illegal where you live, yes a school will tell your child they cannot wear any form of body armor, be it in a backpack or otherwise.
Not to mention the added weight. That won't be good for the kids back.

How the f... can they acquire an assault rifle. No way or reason a civilian should own or have such a weapon. Luckily for me this video is a nothing as I, my family, friends and strangers have a miniscule chance of being involved in a shooting incident.
@@ahorsewithnoname643 LOL! You must live in a totalitarian country. You certainly can be the target of a shooting anywhere in the world. Illegal guns are available everywhere on the black market and terrorists have zero problem getting them. An assault weapon is any weapon used to assault someone. I hope your government continues to allow you to live little lamb.
@@ahorsewithnoname643 >I, my family, friends and strangers have a miniscule chance of being involved in a shooting incident
Famous last words of a man who was killed in a mass shooting lmao!!!
Where I live, no one can (legally) get an m16 (assault rifle)
However, like the rest of the country, an AR-15 type rifle (civilian, semi-automatic rifle with many similarities, same barrel, etc) is quite common amongst firearms owners. It's not a stretch to imagine a deranged adult bringing one to a school, or a teen stealing one from an older friend or relative to do the same. Even though nothing of the sort has happened in my area, I'm glad Paul has shown the difference in power between even an intermediate cartridge like 5.56 NATO versus a pistol cartridge like 9x19 or .45 ACP. For what it's worth, I'm pretty sure Paul's A1 rifle is *not* a select fire M16 - but the quote sounds better to call it an M16
This must've been incredibly uncomfortable to shoot, record, and edit this entire thing. Thank you for this, I hope this could potentially help someone.
" I have a few guns, let's see what we can learn". Sounds good.
I don't even watch Paul's videos before I like. He puts facts out there and lets you decide. He doesnt screw facts just presents them.

Did anyone feel Paul's heart break a little having to do this topic?
Yep!
Yep!
Yes
what?
All of our hearts, man... Sad times, but a necessary discussion.
Just had a thought.... Step one: Cut 3A armor to fit backpack.
Step two: paint a face and hair onto body armor.
Step three: Tell anyone who asks that it is an art project, or their child's spirit totem.
I know this comment is just that. A comment but I’m a retired firefighter and I’ve used 511 brand gear bags and the backpacks they sell have a compartment in the pack panel that will fit an armor plate if you should choose to put one in it. Like I said just a comment. Love the videos keep them coming 2A for life.
This clearly is not just a comment. It so overwhelmingly not a comment that the commentiness of the comment offends me and your non comment has been reported for terrorism.
Jerry Long yeh, I was thinking body armor too; but something better than level IIIa.
the irony is hilarious, i love the 2a! so i can defend myself against others using the 2a to shoot me! jesus wake up.
I'd love to see you cover rust and gun care. Living in the PNW I'm sure you have forgotten more about rust prevention then I can learn.
Yes please. My guns see way too much safe time and general tips would be very helpful, maybe some specific product experiences.
I'd say this test is pretty exhaustive and conclusive. I read it the first time on a gun forum in a thread, by the same author. www.dayattherange.com/?page_id=3667
Long story short, the top three were Frog Lube, WD-40 SPECIALIST, and Hornady One Shot.

Okay, your turn for a Part #3 before Paul does it 😉 j/k
Paul Harrell is the RUclips version of Saturday Morning Cartoons.
Are you saying he’s the good guy version of Dick Dastardly?
For adults.
Jack Wells
HBO edited Elmer Fudd’s shotgun into a SCYTHE! Can you imagine hunting rabbits with a scythe?😳
Jack D as a hunter and a rabbit owner it’s inconceivable. It’s unrealistic, inefficient, and incredibly inhuman... just like every other anti-gun agenda logic never entered the equation.
I know a guy who was working part time at an automotive shop which was owned by a sort of shady owner near Culver City, CA when some of the shady owner's acquaintances dropped in for a visit... and a hit. The visitors went about executing the owner, and decided to shoot everyone in the place, probably so as to leave no witnesses.
So my acquaintance was working on a car when the shooting started. A scumbag came around the rear of the car and shot my acquaintance from his left side. My acquaintance had quite the pot belly going on. The .380 went through his belly from the left side and exited through the right side, causing some tissue damage but missing most of the abdominal muscle, and missing the intestines all together.
My acquaintance also carried loads of old business cards in his wallet, as he never threw _anything_ away. So after being shot through the abdomen, he turned to his right and started to run from the threat. The shooter fired a second shot. Feeling the pain of being shot a second time, my acquaintance fell face down on the floor and played dead. As it turned out, he was shot right in the ass but the .380 caliber FMJ bullet was stopped by his wallet. He was the only one in the shop to survive.
The acquaintance was a friend of my ex-father-in-law is still alive as far as I know. He was never exceptionally wise, but hopefully he learned to stay away from shady people.
What does any of this have to do with book bags? Not much, except that a book bag with books in it CAN save your ass if you're lucky enough.
I would love to see a public official at the scene of whatever “mass shooting” explaining during a press conference why body armor isn’t legal in that jurisdiction and name which politicians voted for it.
i have honestly no clue why body armor is deemed illegal in some jurisdictions if guns aren't. or even why it's illegal at all when it can save your life.
Thank you for everything. Every bit of knowledge and every minute that you spent putting these videos together. For the time that you invested in us as an audience. I'm pretty sure your getting this a lot but you helped me so much with your channel I could never repay you for your generosity. You are truly admired and loved deeply by all of us. I feel so lucky to have discovered your channel a few years ago and I plan on going back and taking notes so that I can pass what you taught us onto someone else. Your work will be remembered for many years to come. Im praying for you and your family. I know life isn't fair but this feels like a spike through my heart. Your what every man aspires to be, just having been yourself. Sorry for the essay but you are a hero to me. So once again thank you your immensely appreciated.
The major error with this test is paul always stacks his rounds through the same exact hole. If you had a mortal shoot it, it might have a different outcome.
@J Jimenez first of all, learn to read.
secondly, /whoosh!
@J Jimenez the point was that even with Paul "intentionally spreading the shots" he still gets tighter groups than people trying to put rounds thru the same hole.
J Jimenez Woah man chill out...
@J Jimenez i didnt thank you for telling me. Idk if you have some form of youtube comment autism, or if you really think i believe he will never die, but either way you couldnt understand what 60 other people at least did. Think about that dumbass 😂
@@Mike-sy6oy honestly it was meant 100% as a joke but that is a good point now that you mention it
We receive the “Run, Hide, Fight” training at my workplace. I would prefer to be able to carry without the fear of termination but it is good training nonetheless.
It would be nice if they preface the concept of fighting with if you do fight we will Fire you
so fucking true. we're not allowed any weapons but they turn a blind eye to people with pepper spray and pocket knives... i'd settle for a deep conceal .25/.22 but i really like being able to pay my bills >.>
@@kumaflamewar6524 My solution is a small bag on my belt that may or may not contain a firearm, in addition to several tools needed for my job in another pouch. If anyone ever asks what's in it, I can tell them and show the tools if they insist. Maybe that could work for you, maybe not. It looks a little stupid, but I've been doing it for months and no one has ever asked me about it.
@@moreparrotsmoredereks2275 : My bag may or may not contain a firearm, and I may or may not have posted this comment. :)
I always just figured, if an event arises where my employer finds out I'm carrying, then living to get fired will be the preferable option. But in that same event, they'd have to be real bastards to fire me (but I won't get my hopes up).
This is a touchy subject, but I'm glad you covered it, Paul. Thanks. As a teacher, in a school district that prohibits teachers from conceal carrying (despite state laws allowing the opposite) it's important we look at alternative options of defending ourselves and our children.
sad that you NEED to do it at all really isnt it.
Another great presentation. Here's a helpful note. It's not just kids that carry backpacks. Many adults work in settings where it would not be uncommon to bring a bookbag to work. They're so much more useful than say, a briefcase. However in addition to all of the items you determined to provide projectile resistance, add to that my ham and cheese sandwich on whole wheat and sometimes a small bag of chips or Oreos. Now let's take a look!
You're a good and carring man,Paul.That a great topic,I'm just glad my children are grown adults.
holy hell, this is both sad and really interesting, makes me want to study a bit more the concept of bulletproofing stuff
You’re right it is extremely sad that state and federal governments make schools “gun free zones” and even in the ones that aren’t most teachers and faculty choose not to arm and train themselves.
@@TheDiameter True, and it's an even sadder state of affairs that there are more and more kids who place so little value on life that they would be willing to murder their classmates just for a mention on the evening news. It reinforces the argument that guns aren't the problem, that instead, society has a growing sickness, and gun crimes are merely a symptom. But it seems nobody in a position to do anything about it actually wants to look for the *cause* of the illness; it's easier to just blame guns.
Sir Galahad all this business with cops and you want teachers to carry guns around black students lol
spacegoat I agree completely!
B Smith Well, by that logic if said black students didn’t physically assault and threaten the lives of others it wouldn’t matter, would it. I’m not advocating for teachers of any race to police, I’m advocating for them to defend the children that they are responsible for.
Such a cool dude. Paul’s the Bob Ross of shooting.
Thank you Paul. This is a sobering subject and I'm glad you presented it in a straightforward manner.
Thanks for making the Bullet Proofing Your Bookbag video.

Thank you for not talking politics about the incompetence of those who do nothing to protect us but time and again try to reduce our ability to protect ourselves. I appreciate your unbiased stance. I feel that I am just as unbiased.
The books idea is a good one. I've been sending my kids to school with cinder blocks in their book bags. It get's past the metal detectors but my kids are dumb as nails.
Bet their strong
No they aren't dumb as nails. They ditch the cinder blocks as soon as they're out of your sight, and put them back in just before they get home.
Honestly, this is impressive. Time to wrap myself in books before work next year....
Sad topic but can’t think of anyone better suited to discuss options
You don't think some tacticool tattooed bearded guy could do just as good of a presentation as paul lol
Keep up the good job! I love that when I see one of your videos the explanation given is detailed and not just something to complement guns being fired. This channel is one of the few that puts out videos that make me feel more educated after I see them, and not just entertained for 10 minutes.
Somebody who cares about the well being of his fellow humans. While most just wants to blame others or argue anything under the sun when it comes to mass shootings, here is someone coming up with something. This is the best gun channel on youtube hands down and possibly the best youtube channel there is. This guy teaches alot more then just stuff about guns, people can learn alot from this channel and Paul Harell. I know this wasnt an easy video to make but im happy he did. If i ever have kids, guess what is gonna be in their backpacks?
In our HH-60H we had over the floor armor against small arms fire that was high density ceramic bonded between sheets of fibre glass. They were pretty effective at fast rope heights. The rounds would break the ceramic, but, the panels remained in service until they could be repaired or had full through failure. A little sealant, speed tape and paint, good to go. With random hits, (not stacking) full through failure was not experienced. The real problem with the armor is it is very heavy and impacted weight and balance of the helo limiting load and pax.
@rogerwilco99 nothing's perfect.
rogerwilco99 - Sounds like a leg problem.
Calling in an orbiting Hog for prep before insertion tends to help.....

@@RonJohn63 body armor. Hopefully you are above all the bad guys. Sometimes not, the trick is prefect coordination between aircrew and team and speed of execution of the evolution. Also, the drop is heavily suppressed by onboard guns . these are at least a two ship evolution. The team is also dropping suppression munitions. Total personnel participation. We are talking only a few seconds from helo in position, team insertion and out. The rope is deployed and team descending even before the ship is in position. Check out the you tube HCS 5 Boom Boom. Then if you get a chance do a little research on HCS 5 Firehawks, which, I was a proud member of and our sister Squadron HCS4 Red Wolves. Helicopter Special Support Squadron, our mission combat special forces insertion, exertion, combat search and rescue . HH60H Armed Helo, Crew Served GAU 17 and others, Hellfire missile. Both Squadrons have sadly been disestablished now. We also developed the fast duck evolution, which, is deploying a team its boat and all their equipment from a forward flying helo and then recovering them and their equipment. You can also find footage of these evolutions.
So, any update on the availability of the Paul Harrell action figures? 😁
There’s currently a bidding war over the rights between Mattel, Bandai, and Hasbro.
The miniature plastic meat targets are giving the CNC 3D printer people fits...They'll figure it out.
Still working out the kinks, they can't figure out how to sew a jacket pocket that will hold "a barretta 9x19mm with Remington greenbox160 grain bullets and a colt .45 acp with fedexpress 230 grain round nose." Yeah can't blame em
I would imagine the Paul Harrel "Jacket of Infinite Small Arms and Ammo Pockets" would be an issue for the action figure.
@Paul Harrel..I hope your humor is as diverse as your knowledge of firearms. We ( or at least I) write in jest. You, sir, have the best analogue to the 2A.

Appreciate the last few videos Paul. Timely, serious and informative. Thx
Lol I’ve never heard (in person) anyone call a back pack a book bag in my life, other than once. I love Paul’s Oregon accent.
My kid is 14 and it's such a narrow window when she'll have the back pack: immediately before and after school. Without researching school shootings before writing this, I think most school shootings happen during school hours. So the fortified book bag won't do any good in the locker room. Plus, I couldn't pay my daughter to walk around with a book bag like that. Teens blab and she'd be like, "Look at this shit my dad is making me carry."
Matt G o. My kids must leave Their backpacks in their lockers when they get to school. On the other hand, it's good to have some protection when you can have it.
Many schools ban backpacks in classrooms, and also traditional books are being phased out for e-books and other online based material.

In our presentation: "Will a cellular phone stop bullets?" I shoot a kindle (or ken doll or some damned thing). I'll see if I can find a lap top to destroy in the quest for knowledge.

I remember back when We had Gun racks In Our truck's, 1 shotgun 1 rifle On School Grounds...
I remember having gun safety and marksmanship as an elective in high school.. we used bolt action .22 on a range in the basement under the pool lol .. and the rifles were owned by the school... issued at the beging of the class and returned at the end
bansheemania
Yep,I remember those days all to well.
They were great times to be alive.
When my dad was in high school, it had a gun club that shot .22 rifles on school grounds and this was in California.
I remember standing in a crowd outside the school's ROTC range. everyone brought their own .22s and ammunition and waited their turn at our annual turkey shoot. times were better in some ways. the dollar was worth something, gold hadn't gone too crazy, a man could actually support a small family on near minimum wage. then Reagan was elected and began his war on the unions. ( the labor powered engine that built the middle class). everything started going to hell.

Great content as usual, but all the same I agree I wish people didn't need this at all. That said, better it's out there for those who need it than unpublished for those who do.
If schools weren’t “gun free” and the faculty armed and trained themselves it wouldn’t be a need.
I’m fascinated by the reality in which having armed teachers is something that even needs to have a discussion. Richest country in the world and people have to behave like they are in some village in a third world crap hole somewhere. Kinda says something about the state of things.
Alan Livingston Equating the relative wealth of a nation to the need for private arms ownership and proficiency is a major fallacy, there is no nation destitute or utopian that does not benefit from armed and trained citizens.
@@TheDiameter Nah, I'm equating the relative wealth of a nation with teachers needing to carry guns because the society has collapsed to a point where having someone go on a shooting rampage through the classroom is something people actually have to consider. I bet if you did a straw poll of people on this site from other first world nations you would find that it happens so rarely elsewhere that people wouldn't even entertain the idea. Apparently there was nearly 50 incidents of people being shot on school grounds in the USA in 2019. I've no beef with people being armed. Look at places like Switzerland. There is a lot of guns floating around that country, but they don't share the same social and economic factors that drive the same level of violence. That says to me the issues isn't born of guns, it's more of reflection of the kind of society that uses them.
Thanks for taking all the time to setup and execute these demonstrations... I'm sure it takes quite a while!

Sometimes when I pick my grandson up from school his back pack is so heavy with books he asks me to carry it for him!! This is a second grader!! Anyone besides me see something wrong with that!
The book companies are paid by the schools. That's what's wrong
When I was in school I never used a book bag. If I had to take any books home, I just carried them by hand.
As an old fart I'm still shocked when I see what kids have to carry these days.
@@androidonetwothree in colleges and universities sometimes the professors write the books that are required for classes.
They'll make slight alterations each year as well, meaning that students can't just hand-me-down the books year after year.
Shit is criminal.
Homework is foolish after the kid already spent all day at school. It's more like slave-training than education.
Thanks for this. All of your videos are great, and this one is a real public service, even if it’s disturbing to think about.
Hi Paul,
Greetings from the UK. Love your videos and the detailed information contained within them.
I also like your sense of humour.
As I live in the UK we can only watch channels like yours as we would never be able to do this ourselves.
Keep up your excellent work.
Regards
RB.
Love the video, but i feel the need to point out that you're more likely to die in transit to/from your school than in a school shooting.
Speaking from personal experience, i was nearly run down at least twice and i knew a girl who spent 5 months in the hospital when a sedan sailed through a red light and hit her on a corner. I knew absolutely no-one, who knew anyone, who knew anyone that died in a school shooting.
Graduated from highschool last year, so i think the anecdote is still relevant.
Hello, any update on that website using part of your video to sell a bed holster?
Awesome video man. keep em coming. lol. As a kid I delivered a morning paper. and used that bag over the shoulder, to carry my books to school too.
Am I the only one that was surprised by Paul's choice of books? A plethora of really good stuff there!!
I've just been informed that a number of books were reported missing from
the "Self Help" section of Paul Harrel's library this morning.
If you read a "Self Help" book written by somebody else, that's not "Self Help", that's just "Help".
I'm sure that "Juicing Bible" was borrowed.
Sad that this issue even arises. Happily though we have true patriots like mr Harrell to do conclusive test in the event of this being needed. I am going to put level 3+ (sorry forgot the +)soft armor in my kids backpacks before next year. Thanks for the videos and all the work you put into your videos and as always thank you for your service to your county. 💪🇺🇸
Thank you for posting this as many parents now have an answer to a big question they have.
Thanks for including a reference to the Run, Hide, Fight video. I've used it to teach Church active shooter survival classes and I haven't found anything better. Stay healthy and God Bless!
