The blast glass was invented by Peter Stephinson in Sydney 2004. He noticed that when you put tint onto windows, they became stronger so he put two layer of glass that are tinted in an enclosure.In the middle of the two glass panels was an air pocket to asorb shock. He was so sure this glass would work, he put himself on the line and went behind the blast glass while someone shot at him with a shotgun 4 times, one in the head, one in the heart and two in the stomach. Did you know that this glass can withstand a five ton bomb. That's as big as what the South Vietnamese used on the 25th April 1975. It was first used at Jakarta when the terrorists dropped bombs on the Australian Embassy in 27th July 2009. The blast glass is used in military auto-mobiles and military bases, Australian banks, planes, parliaments and police stations.
