bullet proof jacket with arms is about $600, pants about $500, helmet $700, face mask $300 (that's if you believe the claims that they work. If you need to actually take a bullet in these things I'd double the cost).

So about $3000-6000 to sleep every night in a back-breaking, neck-wrenching set of 300lb gear in the hope of playing a practical joke on a complete stranger that means you harm.

Perhaps practice by wearing motorcycle leathers and a helmet to bed first?

Then the statistics on home invasion - not only do you need to be one of the 0.2% of people whose home is broken into, but one of the 1/3 of home invasions that happen at night (most happen in the day), and one of the 1/10 that actually require a window or a door broken or forced (most happen because a door is left unlocked) and one of the 1/10 that last longer than a simple grab-the-things-left-exposed, and then one of the 40% where the intruder is armed and the 17% where the intruder is armed with a gun.

so you have a 0.0000519228% chance of this happening.

that's a pretty cuh-razy idea, huh Josh

full body pajama that’s also bulletproof

uh sounds a little warm to sleep in

I'm just going to wear the bulletproof alien pajamas when I break into people's houses then.

I can’t picture a bulletproof sleeping mask.

Imagine a mask made out of the same material as the bulletproof pajamas

I just discovered this community with this post.

This is not a crazy idea.

This is a brilliant idea.

The one issue is it would not be very comfortable to sleep in. And you would want good ventilation in the mask.

If I could afford that, I'd just sleep in a bulletproof fursuit. It would have the same effect.
