Tomorrow's Body Armour for Today's Protector | Colin MacKinnon

If they asked you, would you stab your boss? Even if you were
confident they were wearing the latest in body armour and it was
just a demonstration? Today's podcast guest Colin MacKinnon has
demonstrated the benefit of effective body armour on several
occasions and we are delighted to explore this evolving topic
including:


Why can't bullet proof vests often stop blades and sharpened
screwdrivers?

How easy is it to incorporate discrete body armour into a
suit?

Do you need to train with heavy packs to prepare for body
armour?

What can body armour not achieve today but might achieve in
future?

What new composites and technology should the protector learn
about?

How can an effective armour selection be made?
