I Tested Cheap vs Expensive Stab-Proof Vests and Nearly Died

We are sorry to hear you couldn't get our stab vest! We don’t just sell to assassins and hitmen — we sell to the public too. We will be in touch!

My dad did the same test on my sister with different bulletproof vests using guns. I miss her.

I like how Charlie’s channel doesn’t have a genre, he just does whatever he feels like

If they don’t cast Charlize as the next head goblin in LoTR spin-off, we will rage.

It was so nice for Charlie to try out British clothing products

The reason why the Wish vest wasn't stab-proof is because I'm pretty sure that it was just an armor plate carrier meaning that it was just empty vest you put on and you have to purchase the actual protection plates elsewhere.

That slash resistant shirt actually works. It is mostly used by workers who work around sharp metal edges for example a roofer.

As a security guard in London I deal with a lot of crazies on a daily basis, this video is actually really helpful in establishing how much I need to spend on a vest, cheers Charlie.

There is something comically menacing about Matt just calmly walking up to a vest, and burying a knife in it up to the hilt

I dont think that company that said no to charlie truly knows how much of an opportunity they missed out on

"I hate blue hairs" Pans over to girl with tattoos and partially blue hair shaking her head

I always forget how tiny Charlie actually is. He's just a silly little guy.

Lessons learned: would not want to face Matt in a knife fight

We learned Charlie is not cut out for stabbing and Matt missed his calling as a British Crimelord

When I was about 20, I was really into Rurouni Kenshin and wanted to practice Batoujutsu. There was a tree outside and I had a straight "katana" that is definitely what you find in display sword places at the mall. I practiced a bunch with that sword on drawing from the sheath and striking the tree. Well, it turns out the...tang? (the metal part thingy that connects the sword to the hilt) was just a piece of rebar like metal. Just a big round bar of metal. Turns out that thing will snap if you use it to pretend to be an anime character enough! So I slapped the tree with this metal display sword, the hilt sort of cracked and the tang thingy broke in half and the sharp part of the sword cartwheeled PAST MY FACE and over my shoulder, just happening to turn in a way that didn't hit my shoulder at all. It smashed against the house behind me and I just stood there freaked out. This was a neat video, but I'm extremely glad that you didn't get cut with that flying piece of knife, Charlie. That could've taken out an eye if it'd gone right. I'm glad you're ok. And I'll definitely watch another of these if you get the better equipment and take another stab at it, so I guess I'm part of the problem.

The $15 vest is in fact "Anti-Stab Proof" instead of being "Stab Proof", so it does do it's job perfectly.

It’s great to see that Charlie actually has fun while making his videos. A signal of a YouTuber lasting a lot longer

You should try this with olympic fencing protective gear. It's theoretically rated to withstand a 800N stab attack(which is estimated as peak stab force for humans), but there are 0 videos of people going to town with it. I bet it could protect the bag even from Matt.

Charlie's knife breaks and flies away, so Matt immediately jumps on it and does the same thing lmao. Yall might need to wear goggles if you're gonna do this again for some reason lol

It should be criminal to advertise and sell a “stab proof” and “bullet proof” vest that can’t even prevent a pin from going through it 💀
