Can 100 McDouble’s Stop A Bullet?

Summary

In this humorous experiment, the hosts test how many McDoubles can stop a bullet fired by Ronald McDonald. With 99 cheeseburgers at their disposal, they progressively shoot at them with various calibers, starting from a .22 and moving up to a .50 caliber. The experiment reveals that while cheeseburgers can redirect bullets, they aren't effective body armor, with higher calibers passing through with ease. Interspersed with comedic commentary and a surprise segment involving burritos as makeshift suppressors, the video combines entertainment with absurd scientific inquiry, culminating in a lighthearted exploration of culinary and ballistic interactions.
