They'll Need to Redo That Episode

Last week on Mythbusters, the guys tested various items, such as a police badge, an ipod, and a bunch of pizza delivery boxes, to see if any could stop a bullet from harming a person. It did not appear any normal item that a person would be carrying or wearing could effectively stop a bullet. A news story today, however, related how a purse stopped a bullet from hitting the victim of an attempted robbery. I suppose the Mythbusters will need to test this theory themselves now. I'm dying to see Jamie and Adam argue about whether a Louis Vuitton or a Chanel offers the most protection. ;)
