Default Desert Eagle killed Youtube stunt performer

Quote:
Cops say 22-year-old Pedro Ruiz held a book to his chest and persuaded his girlfriend, Monalisa Perez, to fire a gun at him from a foot away.

Ruiz thought the book would stop the bullet. Instead, it went straight through, killing him.

The gun was a .50-caliber Desert Eagle, the power of which was notoriously showcased in the Brad Pitt film Snatch.

"Safety first."

But in all seriousness, whatever happened to testing the barrier's bullet resistance first in a safe environment while watching the results from a safe distance?

I'm just wondering how the hell could he afford a gold Desert Eagle. At 22, I could barely afford college
