In cooperation with Forensic Genomics Consortium Netherlands, Jalila Essa\u00efdi managed to implant DNA sequence of a sturdy transgenic spider silk (which is relatively much stronger than steel) into the human skin. As a result, bulletproof skin was created. However, what leads to reflection on relativity of the concept of safety is the fact that the bullets were not stopped when on full speed. With a \u201cbulletproof skin\u201d pierced by bullets the experiment prompts discussion on what forms of safety society would benefit from.
