Some people are willing to go to extreme lengths to showcase how good their products are.<\/p>\n

But Trent Kimball, chairman of Texas Armoring Corporation, takes the biscuit for standing behind bulletproof glass and allowing one of his employees to shoot at him.<\/p>\n

Avideo shows the man casually sitting behind a car door that has the reinforced glass in it and waits as one of his members of staff opens fire.<\/p>\n

Before pulling the trigger, the worker – who does not seem to have any worries over the stunt – says: "This is my AK-47. Today I get to shoot my boss. Don't try this at home."<\/p>\n

Three shots are then pumped into the glass, after which Mr Kimball emerges from behind the panel unscathed.<\/p>\n

That's dedication to the cause and apparently the video is meant as a response to doubters who constantly question the safety of the product.<\/p>\n

I think anyone who has seen it will agree that the glass can withstand bullets.<\/p>\n
