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?
