Why don't they make bulletproof vests out of diamond if it is the hardest metal?

Metal ?

because reptilian jews horde the best diamonds

The Mohs scale measures the the resistance of a material to injury. Basically it measures how easily a material scratches (not causes scratches to something else). Diamonds are at the top of this scale. The confusion is around hardness and toughness. Diamonds are hard but they are woefully weak when struck. A fairly insignificant strike with a hammer will shatter a diamond even while the hammer could not possibly scratch the surface of the stone were one to attempt to do so.

But so is ceramic, which is what actual bulletproof vests are made of.

Diamond would be better because it's metal.

...

Because it would be too heavy. 6 grams of diamond weighs like 15 grams.

Gonna need a citation on the one.

Jews are hoarding all the diamonds

Weight, brittleness, flexion, value....take your pick

Sigh. Carbons not a metal. I dont think its even a metaloid.

Not true.

Due to extensive research done by the University of Pittsburgh, diamond has been confirmed as the hardest metal known to man. The research is as follows. Pocket-protected scientists built a wall of iron and crashed a diamond car into it at 400 miles per hour, and the car was unharmed. They then built a wall out of diamond and crashed a car made of iron moving at 400 miles an hour into the wall, and the wall came out fine. They then crashed a diamond car made of 400 miles per hour into a wall, and there were no survivors. They crashed 400 miles per hour into a diamond traveling at iron car. Western New York was powerless for hours. They rammed a wall of metal into a 400 mile per hour made of diamond, and the resulting explosion shifted the earth's orbit 400 million miles away from the sun, saving the earth from a meteor the size of a small Washington suburb that was hurtling towards mid-western Prussia at 400 billion miles per hour. They shot a diamond made of iron at a car moving at 400 walls per hour, and as a result caused over 9000 wayward airplanes to lose track of their bearings, and make a fatal crash with over 9000 buildings in downtown New York. They spun 400 miles at diamond into iron per wall. The results were inconclusive. Finally, they placed 400 diamonds per hour in front of a car made of wall traveling at miles per iron, and the result proved without a doubt that diamonds were the hardest metal of all time, if not the hardest metal known to man.

Are you kidding? They do. I have full diamond armor and a sword so strong I can beat the ender dragon in one hit. If you dont have diamond armor then youre not looking hard enough.

hardness =/= durability

because it would look gay

>6g = 15g

Grams is a weight measurement dumbass.

I was waiting for this.

Well either reliable kevlar that is light and has worked before or a vest full of heavy rocks that may not even be fused together, oh and a full vest would cost a fortune

underrated post

>because it's metal.
Yes, user is correct. Carbon is the hardest metal.

Why are Taylor Swift's songs popular when she's a traitor to her country?

It would also be noisy.
Diamonds are very noisy.

Because contrary to popular belief you don't want the hardest metal, you want a slightly soft metal that will softly catch the bullet. Otherwise if it were made of diamond which does not give way, now the whole chest plate moves at the speed of the bullet through your chest. Very messy.

No you idiot, just make police bodies gun free zones, they'll be safe all the time then. Problem solved.
