Another example... Give me a board that's an inch thick and I can break it with a single punch. Give me a piece of steel a quarter of that thickness and see if I can punch through it. Yeah right. Just because it busted the pod doesn't mean it would bust the goggle lens.

The pod was made of plastic, and I'm taking this directly from this site http://www.rrpb.com/about.html
"Paintball goggles are mainly made of a semi-ridged plastic with a single Lexan lens."
Lexan is the stuff that bulletproof glass is made from.

YOUR EYES ARE SAFE. You will be fine.
