A Study In Eye Wear and Self Defense
Everyone has seen the famous scene in one of the series of Godfather movies where the hitman, once checked to have no weapons was allow in to see a Don from a rival family. He used the Don's own eye glasses by removing them from his face and then thrusting them into his throat killing him. I always wondered if that would really work in a pinch...So I decided to test just that. My eyeglass which I have been wearing as reading glasses for the last six years just manage to break a part that won't be repairable. Into the garbage they go, I have replacement pairs....well anyway I remember the movie on the way to the garbage but walked pasted to the frig and took a roast (tomorrows food)out and stabbed it twice wrapping and all , holding it like a kubotan in hammer grip, and striking hard with both ends... Results.....Failure.......Meat 1, Eye Glasses 0
Here are some pics: Because on the final way to the garbage I said wow, this might be a cool object to practice some photography with.
So Bottom Line this test proves, The Walmart's 1.50+ Magnifying glasses MSRP $9.99 does not make a good Defense Tool if the situation should ever arise
DISCLAIMER: Let is be known that no other eye glasses were abused, maimed or killed during the filming of the still shots for this post.
Some are saying this is Sal's new Logo
