Wow... I don't think I have ever felt threatened enough by anyone to go to such extremes. Maybe you could just lay on your car horn? There are also panic buttons on most keyless entry devices if you have one for your car. You could also just scream at them like a maniac.JimmyJockstrap said:This might sound rediculous.
But if you are outside of america or in a strict anti-gun place there is less opportunity to defend yourself. If someone walks towards me while i get in my car and i think they are going to rob me , jack met,etc. I will smash my car window to create a commotion and also they probably don't want to drive around a stolen car with a smashed window.
Or if I am outside my house in my yard and someone attacks me I smash the window of my house or smash it against metal and that horrible metal on metal noise to create a commotion. And possibly they will move on to an easier victim.

Dense little bullets do a quick number on windows, and depending on where you are, you can bet on the screaming too.
hehehe

A wallet made of tungsten then. Imagine a mugger demanding your wallet. You take it out of your pocket but, in a surprise move, you smash your car window with it. Ha!Redbelly98 said:better yet one made out of tungsten.

out of whack said:...then you hand it over since the mugger has a gun.
Ah yes, and excellent point, I forgot this indeed. The mugger would have to have a larger tungsten wallet than the victim for the scenario to make any sense.Redbelly98 said:You're forgetting that this whole scenario occurs in a gun-free zone, so the muggers don't have guns.
The most dense everyday items include sinkers for fishing, socket sets, and several other household items. These items are typically small and compact but have a high mass and weight per unit volume.
The density of sinkers for fishing can vary depending on the material they are made of. However, most sinkers have a density of around 7.8 grams per cubic centimeter, which is similar to the density of iron or steel.
Socket sets are considered dense because they are made of metal, which has a high density. Additionally, socket sets are designed to fit multiple sockets within a compact case, making them a high-density item.
The most dense material used in everyday items is osmium, which has a density of 22.59 grams per cubic centimeter. However, osmium is not commonly used in everyday items due to its rarity and high cost. Iron and steel, with densities of 7.8 grams per cubic centimeter, are more commonly used in everyday items.
No, there are no known everyday items with a higher density than osmium. However, some synthetic materials, such as aerogel, have been created with densities lower than osmium but with higher strength and durability.
