In baseball, a beanball is a pitch, similar to a brushback pitch but actually intended to hit the batter it is thrown at, often in the head. It is rarely used as a strategic weapon, and mostly used to vent anger and frustration.
This video shows what happens when a pitcher throws one of these at 95 miles per hour (or about 153 kilometers per hour), with and without a helmet.
I wanted to see one thrown at a coconut with a helmet, but unfortunately, they didn’t show that.

President Bush delivered the first pitch tonight at the new Nationals Park in Washington, D.C. to a resounding chorus of boos. After being announced, Bush was showered by boos as he strode to the mound. Even after delivering the pitch, the jeering did not let up until Bush disappeared from the field.
