The Crossbow

This is the type of crossbow that was used in the experiment, a bog standard 50psi hand held make. A real picture of the crossbow was unavailable due to unreliability of a certain person.

Footage

Testing the crossbow for accuracy and power, we needed to get a LOT closer for damage to be done.

Taking it from behind. Minor penetration. (Dirty minded aren't we!)

Overall

The whole test was pretty anti-climatic, didn't live up to any expectations. The screen took most of the damage, very little fragmentation which is disappointing,  Put batteries back in it and it probably would have worked, the sound might have been off and the screen is wrecked but still functional. The crossbow used was unsuitable for the task at hand, it would have been better if it had more power.
