Interesting that the glass stayed structural even with several large spider webs in it. Likewise, she did not seem to be catching any spalling or backside fragments. Was this due to the natural shock absorption of her arms as window mounts. I am also surprised her finger tips in front of the impact side did not get hurt.

Could it be these rounds were Hollywood Vaseline bullets?

The dress the woman is wearing indicates a 1930's or early 1940's time frame. Back then "safety" didn't have the same meaning it does today.

Sam iagree but spalling is spalling and if the glass is stopping the bullets her finger tips would riddled with fragments. I think they must be shooting Vaseline bullets
