...is ridiculous, but what about a flak jacket made of mushrooms?
It turns out that certain fungi produce material that is as good as plastic. Specifically, the Hoof mushroom, so called because it looks like a horse's hoof.
Possible applications include implants, sports equipment, electronics, surface coatings for windshields and, yes, body armor.
Made out of shrooms.
Biomimicry is an awesome thing.
