If you have ever watched the television show Mythbusters on the Discovery channel, they use a material called ballistics gel for duplicating human skin. It has the same properties and it is very close to the behavior of skin.

I agree with the first poster, and I learned this from Mythbusters as well! I just wanted to show you this site I had found before about how to make your own ballistics gelatin. Hope this helps!
