    • Giorgi

      well, at least it will protect the wall from the debry from tornado. if u plant C4 on the wall it will destroy it no doubt.

    If it is “bomb proof” why did they test it without bombing it?

    Come on, talk about snake oil. The “wall” they made has no horizontal reinforcement. Put some structural steel (rebar) and it will hold up just fine. The wall paper has a high tensile strength when glued to the wall surface. ANY wall paper will add substantial bracing under these tests. I wonder if Chairman O will be hiring these guys to peddle cap and tax or obiecare.
