What happens when you cross spider webs with human skin cells. Why, you could very well end up with an interesting new material that could repel bullets – as long as they travel within reasonable speeds, of course. This is made possible thanks to a Dutch team who conjured this unique “bulletproof” skin using special, U.S.-made spider silk and human skin cells. Basically, it stopped a bullet that was fired at a reduced speed, and it certainly will not be able to go up against a shot from a .22 caliber rifle, which is actually the benchmark for protection for a Type 1 bulletproof vest.
