Taser Proof Vest?

Mar 05, 2006 6 Replies

What kind of vest could protect someone from a Taser?



I was thinking a simple foil-faced fabric might be adequate.



Thanks, Anna


Hello Anna,

An emergency metallic solar blanket or a quick vest made of the silver mylar that those fancy balloons or kites use.

I have seen a mylar kite stretched across power lines take down the entire block serviced by that utility pole. It created a gawd awful deafening concussion of a 60 hz hum sound.

A vest could also be made out of aluminum window screen.

This experiment would be better tested on your little brother. lol

I'm betting they're a troll - but just for the sake of argument:

So, he/she wants a "Taser proof vest? Ok...... let him have one (once created). Better put a bullet proof jacket on too - because if they see a Taser isn't doing anything, the bullet may be their next option. Ooopps - the cops don't always shoot for the area covererd by a vest - so that may be useless. Good luck in his/her crime spree - short lived as it may be.

That should work. The foil will short out the zot, although the needles will still puncture you. And when the cops realize you're taser-proof, they'll just shoot you.

Make a vest out of several layers of kevlar sail cloth.

On second thoughts stitch some aluminium foil between the kevlar.
