"We did a 45-ply 400 mm thick bulletproof glass, to see whether it can withstand a shot from a bazooka," the individuals wrote on YouTube, according to an online translation.

The footage reveals the rocket has no trouble piercing through the bulletproof glass. Footage taken in the aftermath shows a hole where the rocket collided with the glass.
