I don't think bullets "bounce off" pf body armor, but it just slows down the bullet and absorbs the energy. I have seen body armor after being hit several times and saw bullets embedded in the material. Kevlar is good for that, and even steel plates will most often stop a bullet. Once a bullet has spent all its energy, whether it's a tree or a car door or body armor, it has little to no energy left to bounce off and kill someone.
Correct, which is why I thought it was really strange that it was the story being out out there.
I have seen a body armor, consisting of honeybee grate formed parts that stops a .50 armor piercing round.
I' ll see if I can find the video of it. ...
found it.

Well DAMN! I still wouldn't want to get hit by a. 50BMG round, even wearing that. There would be months of healing broken ribs and sternum, not to mention any organ damage from the shock. Still, an amazing vest, I'll give you that.
Yes plus armor causing ricochets is a bad design as it endangers bystanders and other operatives with you. It's way safer to dissipate all of the energy.
Car door? 9mm ball will rip through both doors of a car and keep on going. If it was soft body armor, Kevlar, etc. will "trap" the bullet - i.e. slugs left behind. Hard or plate body armor, the bullet mashes flat, often sending pieces of spall in various directions (spall can be mitigated with a plate coating like Line-X), but the bullets don't "bounce" off.
I know, but the conversation was about bullets "bouncing off" of things. Yeah, 9mm tends to overpenetrate, like through multiple dry wall etc., it's one of the downsides to using 9mm indoors. That's why for interior self defense I prefer. 45 or 12-gauge.
Those 12 ga 000 balls (.38 cal) can also go right through walls as well. In all my carry pistols (9 mm) I keep Hornady Critical Defense in them. The problem with using 12 ga inside is the smoke. One shell and you have a cloud problem. .45 of course, you can never go wrong with.
There are frangible 9mm rounds that fragment into almost granular powder on impact, that can cut down on overpenetration. Besides, why waste muzzle energy on a wall, when it would be put to better use in stopping a bad guy?
