0:00The giant chain whip returns, with a gong as its first target.
3:26A work boot is attached for a high-speed attempt to kick a soccer ball.
6:26A bullwhip test leads into a discussion of velocity and acceleration.
10:16The crew prepares a heavy sledgehammer for concrete pavers, with Rexy perched on top.

18:59The title's sledgehammer-against-coffin test reaches its decisive impact.

The coffin has to wait. Before How Ridiculous gets to the metal box promised in the title, its giant chain whip has a gong to smash, a soccer ball to kick and a mannequin to undress.

"Worlds Fastest Sledgehammer Vs Bulletproof Coffin" drew roughly 673,000 views since yesterday. After the Australian trio's canyon throws, this outing brings the action back to a machine that sends attached objects hurtling into targets, sometimes shedding its own hardware along the way.

The opening mallet launch fails when a bolt shears off. Another attempt breaks early, leaving Jackson replacing ropes before the crew finally demolishes the gong and its stand. The failed launches are part of the story, not just material trimmed away before the successful hit.

Then comes a work boot, whipped into a soccer ball at a reported 394 mph. Camera operator Jack supplies the speed reading; the ball supplies very little resistance. An attached bullwhip also prompts a "SCIENCE WITH GAUNSON" discussion about velocity and acceleration, a subject viewers continue debating in the comments.

The video includes a paid Shopify segment before returning to the tests. A heavy sledgehammer shatters concrete pavers beneath dinosaur mascot Rexy, while a sword bends against a stack of encyclopedias. The mannequin's attempted shorts removal gets particular attention from viewers recommending the slow-motion replay. Another suggests a future test: removing a single block from a giant Jenga tower.

The title's "bulletproof" coffin eventually faces weighted chains and then a smaller sledgehammer. Bullet resistance is not what that last test measures: the hammer punches a large hole through the metal.
