Did bulletproof vest come from a aliens vest in the 60's?
No, Casimir Zeglen invented the first commercial vest in the late 1800s, made of silk. Kevlar was invented in the 60s, not used for vests till the 70s though. Now they are working on a new better type of armor called dragon skin. Tough stuff, but not alien as far as I know. If it was, then aliens must not be that advanced.
