    He also claimed he felt it through his Kevlar vest. Didn’t know sandwiches are more powerful than bullets.

      There is a big difference between being able to feel something and being injured by it.

        Indeed. Conservation of energy means he definitely felt it, just spread out over his entire torso, bouncing off harmlessly.

      You need special plating to handle those sub-sonic sandwiches.

      To be fair, while wearing one you can feel someone lightly patting you on the chest. I’m sure he did feel it but no way on earth did it hurt.

        Yeah, the vest distributes pressure, but doesn’t stop it. It’s not a magical force shield. You can still feel things… If someone pokes you, you feel it pushing on your chest. But you feel it with your whole chest, not just where they poked.

      He also claimed he felt it through his Kevlar vest. Didn’t know sandwiches are more powerful than bullets.

      Clearly this was a Subway sandwich with an armor piercing tungsten penetrator ingredient. Evidence submitted by the prosecution cited Subway corporation’s recent advertising campaign featuring the slogan “I can’t get enough of that tungsten!”. This branding campaign was, of course, a backpedal from Subway’s previous offering of a Depleted Uranium penetrator which was largely shunned by sandwich consumers as being ‘unhealthy’. /s
