Mythbusters

[Rogue2006]

For everyone who wants to discuss the mythbusters and the crazy ****e they get upto ;)

[_BB_]

lol, i wondered who was going to make this thread first

Mythbusters is one of the best shows on tv :D

[Morg]

One of my favorites shows I watch every week(even the repeats) and seeing Kari is a plus :D

yay the thread was made!

[Colossal Spoons]

I'm a big Mythbusters fan :up:

[Eklypze]

mythbusters is indeed a great show

[Jochimus]

I don't get to watch it as much as I'd like. :(

Did see the Jaws episode, though. That was awesome. :cool:

[Rogue2006]

Kinda feel sorry for buster though

[wiegeabo]

Got to watch the marathon a couple of nights ago. Good stuff. I hadn't seen it in a while so much of it was new for me.

[Colossal Spoons]

The jaws episode reminded me of Animal Face-Off; another great show.

[Morg]

BTW peeps, the Discovery(channel of Mythbusters) has a board where the Mythbusters crew do post and reply :)

[xwolverine2]

edit:nevermind

[Kable24]

good show. I enjoy watching it from time to time.

[xwolverine2]

WOW im surprised how many people watch this show.......

i thought i was the only one!

[wiegeabo]

I love the show. I just used to always miss it because of night classes.

[The Traveller]

WOW im surprised how many people watch this show.......

i thought i was the only one!
"i thought i was the only one!"
OH, WOW! You're so special they made a TV show just for YOU and nobody else. The only reason it's still on the air is because YOU watch it...:rolleyes:

[Colossal Spoons]

OR he could have thought the show wouldn't be popular and was just exxagerating.



Oh yeah, :rolleyes:

[xwolverine2]

"i thought i was the only one!"
OH, WOW! You're so special they made a TV show just for YOU and nobody else. The only reason it's still on the air is because YOU watch it...:rolleyes:
yeah but i thought it was just "another discovery channel show"

i NEVER EVER watched DC before mythB........i didnt know it would be SO popular.

[Bat Attack]

Same here, She is really hot.:up: I love the one where the mythbusters tried to build a hoverjet pack.

[xwolverine2]

lol....that was HUGE!

[Red]

Great show

[The Hurricane]

Its awsome. kari is hot.

SO we need something to talk about. Who do yous think is smarter?

[huskerwebhead]

Love this show. I throw their conclusions in people's faces all the time. Like when someone tells me to turn my cell phone off at the gas pump. Or when some bonehead tries to tell me that putting the tailgate down on my truck actually increases my gas mileage. HAHA....Mythbusters proved you wrong. Sucker!

[DBM]

I watched the Jaws special they did this weekend. It was great to see them trying to recreate situations from the movie.

[War Lord]

Or when some bonehead tries to tell me that putting the tailgate down on my truck actually increases my gas mileage. HAHA....Mythbusters proved you wrong. Sucker!

The cellphone thing is not necessarily bogus. It might be due to static electricity as the person moves the cellphone around their face while talking, which Mythbusters didn't explore. There have been situations across the US where the person caught fire while pumping gas while talking on a cellphone.

[War Lord]

My favourite episode was where the Chinese lord wanted to go to the moon.

There have been situations across the US where the person caught fire while pumping gas while talking on a cellphone.

OK, but that's not what the myth was about. It was weather or not the operation, ringing, dialing, etc. of a phone would cause a fire. You could rub a balloon on your face, or a cloth, or anything else and "mabye" get a spark from static electricity and cause a fire. So that's a moot point.

None of those situations have been "proven" to be a result of the person using the cell phone. They just coincidentally happen to be on the phone. There have been far more fires started where a phone wasn't involved.

[wiegeabo]

It's more dangerous to get back in your car and get out and touch the pump than it is to use a cellphone. Still doesn't mean I would use a phone at the pump, but I'm not too concerned about it.

And they were right in saying that women are far more likely to be involved in a fire at the pump because of getting back in their cars. I see women always getting back in their cars, and getting out again without touching the sides of the car (to discharge static). Guys tend to just stand around. The warnings on the tanks even say stand next to your vehicle, do not get back in. But how many people actually read those since the print is so small and they're always too low to read?

[Addendum]

Very good show, although Discovery channel has a habit of showing the same episodes over and over and over

How many people read instructions, period?

When was the last time you read an instruction booklet on a game, computer, cell phone, or any other electronic or mechanical device?

[wiegeabo]

In a future episode their going to tackle the myth of what happens when you shoot a bullet into the air, as well as the vertical bullet myth (if you shoot a bullet straight up, it will fall straight back down and kill you). Adam said they were able to get some great and surprising results.

[Spidey-Bat]

Love the show. I've watched it since the beginning and love it.

[xwolverine2]

My favourite episode was where the Chinese lord wanted to go to the moon.
LMFAO!...

lol the dummy got his A$$ blown away!....and never even left the ground.


:eek: did anyone see the epsode about singing so loud you can break a glass?:eek: I HAD NO IDEA ITS POSSIBLE!!!!!:eek:

[_BB_]

I watched the episode yesterday where they tried to reproduce the brown note. Man that would have been funny if it worked

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

I have to say I can't believe there isn't a thread for this show yet. I know it is not as thrilling or suspensful as your average sitcom or drama shows like desperate housewives, lost or cops. But damn this is one of the best shows I have seen in a long time.

So what has been your favorite mythbuster episode so far? Or what have you been dissapointed with? Any myths you would like to see Adam and Jamie bust?

The bullets falling back to Earth one was nice. I was glad to see they finally put that one to rest. The jail break one with the salsa I was extremely surprised by, if you have the know how and some salsa and a light in your cell, you can be free in about a month or so. Pretty sweet for all of those guys locked up :up:

I was a little bumbed with the whole splitting an arrow myth, that sucked but oh well what are you going to do right?

[Mrh7448]

I love this show and watch it anytime I can. Or maybe more specifically I love that Kari Byron...mmmmmmm

I think one of my favourites was the rocket chair and definitely the cement truck...It blewed up...it blewed up real good.

I still want them to do the "can you catch more flies with honey than with sour milk" one though

[cerealkiller182]

This show is definately a fun watch. I thought they were running out of ideas too and then they pull a bunch of interesting ones out real quick: murder by celebratorial gunshot.

Mrh that explosion was damn cool, and Kari Byron is damn hot!!!!

The show is one of my favorites.

I wrote to Adam once, and he actually replied. :up:

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

Yeah no kidding she is hot :up:

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

Why the hell doesn't the search button work?! :mad:

I also like the one where they were testing to see if a duck's quack would echo, and the duck wouldn't quack lol :D Just like the skunk wouldn't spray them lol :D

[Jonathan Archer]

I remember an episode where they did an experiment to determine if microscopic faeces would stick to the bristles on your toothbrush. They placed several used toothbrushes on all corners of the bathroom. They even had a control-specimen: a brand-new unused toothbrush.

They've discovered that ALL of the toothbrushes had microscopic faeces on the bristles no matter where the brushes are placed in the bathroom, INCLUDING the control-specimen, within 24 hours.

And what I fould humourous was that they actually regretted conducting the experiment and commented something like some things are better left unknown.

[Spidey-Bat]

That experiement was flawed. they used the same tube of tooth paste for all the brushes. I should write to them and request a revisit.

[Flexo]

That experiement was flawed. they used the same tube of tooth paste for all the brushes. I should write to them and request a revisit.

They'd shoot you. :(

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

That experiement was flawed. they used the same tube of tooth paste for all the brushes. I should write to them and request a revisit.

Dude, they had two tooth brushes outside in another room they didn't even use.

[Morg]

Holy crap! What episode is that from?


believe that one was the one where they see if it's possible a plane toilet seat suction would actually 'glue' a person butt to the toilet :) they use a cast of Kari butt :)

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

You would be correct.

[Spidey-Bat]

Dude, they had two tooth brushes outside in another room they didn't even use.

It was still flawed. They did it back in an early season when they probably didn't have the budget for 20 some tubes of toothpaste.

[Jonathan Archer]

Why the heck was it flawed? Microscopic traces of faeces were evident even on unused toothbrush!!

[Morg]

you do know they play several episodes on Sundays? I like to watch the ones I really like

WOW!:up:

[TheCorpulent1]

Wow, I thought I was the only one with a geeky crush on Kari. :)

[wiegeabo]

You are. The rest of us have a geeky obsession. ;)

[TheCorpulent1]

Damn, I am alone. :( Oh well, maybe after another season or two I'll upgrade from crush to obsession.

[The Rocketeer]

I like the episode where they see, if they were in prison could they make a crossbow out of paper plates and homemade glue, to kill the guard and escape from prison.:) :up: :supes:

[TheCorpulent1]

I like pretty much any episode where they damage Buster. :)

[Morg]

Anyone ever bought the dvd's? If so do they have CC(closed caption) or subtitles on it?

[Mrh7448]

Yeah I liked that one too, the fact Adam puts one over on Jamie and makes a better crossbow, it seems Adam doesn't get the best of Jamie very often, of course you'd never catch Jamie stickin his face in the motor of a vacuum cleaner.

[DBM]

Wow, I thought I was the only one with a geeky crush on Kari. :)

God no. She's super hot.

Can't you read lips?

Wouldn't do a lot of good for the voiceovers.

[DBM]

believe that one was the one where they see if it's possible a plane toilet seat suction would actually 'glue' a person butt to the toilet :) they use a cast of Kari butt :)

That was actually the first episode she was in. Prior to that she just worked in the design department of Jamie's company.

[War Lord]

Yeah I liked that one too, the fact Adam puts one over on Jamie and makes a better crossbow, it seems Adam doesn't get the best of Jamie very often, of course you'd never catch Jamie stickin his face in the motor of a vacuum cleaner.

Or knocking things over.
Or getting cut innumerable times.
Or breaking the cement floor.
Or breaking things that shouldn't break.

[TheCorpulent1]

God no. She's super hot.
That she is. I like the secondary myth trio even more than Jamie and Adam now. Kari's hot, Grant's scarily good at everything, and Tory's usually funny. Adam and Jamie are cool, but the secondary myths have become just as interesting as the main events now. :up:

[War Lord]

Probably the most entertaining thing is when you see a real reaction from Jamie, because that doesn't happen very often, such as the bug bomb episode.

[Tsunulia]

The bug bombs were hilarious :D Blow up the whole friggin house :D


The best was still blowing up the cement truck :up:

[War Lord]

Yeah I kinda agree, they do some of the more interesting experiments now too.

I did enjoy Tory's faceplant when he tried to jump the little red wagon.

[Bnightwing]

love it but need better tests 1 of my bros friends got to meat Adam and Jamie

also my fav ep was both of the security ones

[chaseter]

Does anyone else beside me love and watch this show? It is on the Discovery Channel right now. One more quick question...Why is Caroline Rhea, who happens to be quiet fat...hosting the Biggest Loser...that makes no sense to me. Anyways, Mythbusters is awesome.

[Super Kal]

I watch it, and I really like it.

[Apollo]

yea

[jimmy]

I watch it sometimes.

[Kebab gud]

i have a bone to pick with them....
you all remember the "shooting the rope on a gallow" myth right?
why the F** didnt they test the original myth? shooting the rope with a bow and arrow..
i whould LOVE to see if that works

[NewYorkSpider]

This is a good show to watch.

[Crimson_L]

I'll watch it If I'm flip through channels, interesting show.

[zer00]

awesome show

[Morg]

Does anyone bothered to see if we have a thread?

[zer00]

What is with you and that old thread?

[Bnightwing]

i loved the x-mas episode where they did the rue goldburg machine (i cant spell) it reminded me of this

this show rocks

[Kritish]

Who saw the pirate episode tonight?

[Spidey-Bat]

I've watched part of it. Adam going through the obstacle course was ****ing hillarious.

[Fading]

Love the show too. Lots of great episodes, I think one of my favorites was the jail break with salsa. Where Adam actually increased the mass of the bar while Jaimie broke thru, and then they tried the Jackie Chan pee stained silk trick and it was splashing around. Actually I missed the new one and it's repeating in 13 mins, glad this thread popped up to remind me :) (been an insomniac lately, can't get to sleep at night anymore).

I'll toss in a few Kari pics tho I found quick -

[Arkady Rossovich]

I watched Mythbusters for a while,i told my father about the Vodka myths but he did not belive their results.Old world thought never dies,but i prefered when the show only had Adam and Jamie.I dont really like the others that now do the myths with them.

[zer00]

Well that's because you don't deserve to watch the show

Only if I could meet a girl like her. When did the pirate episode air? I missed it.

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

Just last Wed. It was awesome, two hour special. It was on again a couple times this past weekend. Don't miss this wed, it is the classic myth, can you escape from a sinking car in water?

[batman7289]

kari is so sexi

[Fading]

Just watched the cellphone on an airplane episode, and the helium raft one. That helium raft one had me rollin' at the end, funniest episode yet IMO.

When they started to get the raft to lift, but cut one side of the counter weights too soon and the raft started to tip. Then Adam started yelling as he fell off the top and then started slipping through the cracks, and as he was hanging from that net like all dignity had just been stripped from him. That already had me laughing, but when they started cutting the tubes and the helium filled up the room real quick and they all had the high pitch voices, and Kari was taking it serious but u can tell Adam wanted to bust out laughing.

They really didn't do anything special, but was entertaining.

[Addendum]

They shouldn't bother with testing Hollywood type stunts. Such a waste of time.

Still a fun show though

[redmarvel]

Oh, it's fun watching the Hollywood stunts disproven. I especially liked the episode where they tried shooting a car and getting it to blow up, or the one where they tried to do the General Lee jump and showed that even if the driver was able to walk away after it the car would never move again.

Frankly, between the A-Team and MacGuyver they could problem get a million or so episodes.

I'm always tempted to send in my Hubby's myth that leaving paper / plastic over the vent of a heating duct will cause it to catch fire. (The heat is never above 22C in our house, as far as I know, paper doesn't spontaneously combust at 22C).

Did anyone else catch Discovery's Spoof Show this weekend. The number of spoofs about Mythbusters was great.

[batman7289]

i love this show by the way .lol

[Morg]

getting annoyed, my tvguide online keeps saying this week is new but every time I watch it it's repeats :(

[Bat Attack]

I know, I wish they would show some new episodes.

[Bat Attack]

kari is so sexi
I agree.

[batman7289]

ur a good man bat^

[batman7289]

yes finally a new episode

[Morg]

Yep, finally. About time, wish they do a all Kari show :D

[Morg]

See a listing at a dvd news site that Mythbusters Mega Movie Myths will be release on dvd on March 20th and on May 22 Mythbusters Collection 1 will be out on dvd

[Kritish]

I'm always tempted to send in my Hubby's myth that leaving paper / plastic over the vent of a heating duct will cause it to catch fire. (The heat is never above 22C in our house, as far as I know, paper doesn't spontaneously combust at 22C).


Yeah, there's no way that it's going to catch on fire at 22 degrees.

[wiegeabo]

The myth is more that the paper will keep absorbing heat faster than it can lose it. So it will get hotter and hotter until in ignites.

But a sheet of paper isn't known for holding onto heat very well...

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

Did anyone catch the under water car escape one about a month and a half ago?

[redmarvel]

Didn't catch it on T.V. but found it on Youtube when I was looking for the Mythbuster spoofs. Basically, get your door open first, then take off your seatbelt.

[Deep Thinkin'!]

bump

I love this frekkin show!

[Morg]

anyone bought the dvd? If so is it CC(closed caption) or in subtitles?

[The Storm]

I only started watching this recently and I love it. The Hollywood myths they attempt are funny. The one from American Graffitti was fun to watch. I like it both we Adam and Jamie and with the junior mythbusters as well.

[strikezone89]

god karie is sexy.

[strikezone89]

TONIGHT IS THE EPISODE they do superhero myths.
YES

[wiegeabo]

I had forgotten all about this. Glad I logged into the Hype. Just half-an-hour to go.

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

TONIGHT IS THE EPISODE they do superhero myths.
YES


You my friend...are a God send :up:

[cyborg ninja 14]

I find the Baseball myths episode ironic since they had Roger Clemens on it teaching the art of pitching.

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

Lol, although not really irony.

[Obi-Ron]

Yep, finally. About time, wish they do a all Kari show :D

I'd watch it!

[TheCorpulent1]

I've been watching Mythbusters like crazy lately. What a great idea for a show, and they got a really charismatic bunch to do it. I :heart: it. :)

[StrainedEyes]

I try to watch it every week! I love me some Mythbusters.

I'm not that big a fan of the girl replacing Kari right now, it feels like she's acting too much, but whatever.

[TheCorpulent1]

I've been watching from the beginning after catching some of the marathon during Thanksgiving, so I haven't seen many of the recent episodes. The last one I saw was the one with the possible cures for seasickness. Poor Adam and Grant.

Speaking of Grant, as cool as Scottie was, I'm glad Grant came along. Tory's great at building stuff and Kari's very creative, but it felt like the Build Team couldn't really stand on its own two feet until Grant came along with his very technical knowledge of practically everything. I noticed that Adam and/or Jamie would turn up for just about all of the Kari/Tory/Scottie myths at some point, yet that got dialed way down not too long into the Kari/Tory/Grant myths. Hell, Grant actually pops in to help with some of Adam and Jamie's myths from time to time. :up:

[StrainedEyes]

Recently, Kari, Grant, and Tory seem to be doing more interesting myths than Jamie and Adam, at least more interesting to watch.

You're right though, that team did not come together until Grant came along. The show was all about Adam and Jamie, and then it was about them and their helpers, and then it split into two teams when the K/G/T team came along and showed they could handle themselves. I do miss the joint myths though. Whenever they merge, like the Pirate episode, it's always a lot of fun.

But yeah, Kari left to have a baby and will be back eventually, and the girl replacing her just seems fake to me. It doesn't ruin the show, but I eagerly await Kari's return.

There is an all day Mythbusters marathon on Christmas, and the 28th. :up:

[TheCorpulent1]

I'm totally watching the marathon. That's the great thing about Mythbusters: even reruns are still entertaining to me.

Wonder if Jessi (the new girl) will stay after Kari's return. Otherwise, it must suck coming onto the show with the firm knowledge you're just a temporary replacement until the person they actually want gets back.

[TheCorpulent1]

Was she hired from outside specifically as onscreen talent? Maybe she's someone who worked in the shop already and she agreed to fill in for Kari. They've pulled random people from the shop and research departments onto the show from time to time.

[mr. peasant]

Don't think so. Based on her bio at the official website, they make no mention of her working for Jamie or Adam before. Plus, her background is in cars.

[TheCorpulent1]

Oh. Well, maybe she could stick around. I don't see why the Build Team couldn't have 4 members instead of 3.

Mythbusters will air a new episode Monday Dec 28 at 9 pm(eastern time)

Yup, with an an all day marathon leading up to it. :up:

[TheCorpulent1]

I've got cable while I'm staying at my sister's house for the holidays, so I'm totally catching that when it airs. :up:

[StrainedEyes]

There's also a bunch of episodes on Netflix Instant, if you have access to that.

[Paroxysm]

I love Mythbusters and can't wait for the new season.

[TheCorpulent1]

I've been watching them. I'm just about done with Collection 2 now.

[StrainedEyes]

:up: to the Molten Lead and the Coconut myths.
:down to the Earwax myth. Gross.

[ReTrO JuNkIe 42]

So funny to see them dry heaving, but yeah that was very gross I couldn’t really watch

[TheCorpulent1]

The earwax candle was seriously nasty with the little hairs sticking out of it and everything. If Kari were there, I doubt they could've even tested it. She has way less of a threshold for grossness than Tory or Grant.

[ReTrO JuNkIe 42]

Yes, you're right about that one.. almost forgot about the hairs :barf: thanks for reminding me :argh:

[TheCorpulent1]

Was anyone else kind of astonished at the number of Mythbusters marathons Discovery had over the holidays? Between Christmas and the day after New Year's, I think there were like 3 Mythbusters marathons. It was cool, but damn, I didn't think Discovery did them that often.

[El_Citrus]

I HATE that they've moved Mythbusters to Mondays, where there's just too much programming going on. My favorite Discovery Channel show was perfectly fine where it was at on Wednesdays. Grr. I'll just have to catch the highlights online.

[Morg]

So it now airs Mondays? Dammit, I got Heroes and Big Bang Theory

[El_Citrus]

Tonight and last week's episodes were the last two for the season, so hopefully Discovery sees a ratings drop on Mondays and moves Mythbusters back to Wednesdays where they belong.

[TheCorpulent1]

I think it was only temporary for these last two shows over the holidays. It's still listed as "Wednesdays at 9" on the website.

[BillyZaned]

anyone else thing Kari is just adorable... MILF

MythBusters No MythBusters fan will want to miss this...THIS FRIDAY, The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson is an all-MYTHBUSTERS-themed show! That's right! Craig waxes poetic for an hour about his love for "the greatest show on television" - including exclusive interviews with Tory, Kari and Grant. Check out a pic from the greenr...oom below...who's gonna be watching?

[TheCorpulent1]

Made a note on my calendar for it. :)

[bored]

Awesome.

[TheCorpulent1]

I didn't know Ferguson was such a fan of the show (assuming it's not just a promotional thing because of some CBS/Discovery deal). That's kind of cool. I always love finding out celebrities are fans of the same things I am, for some reason. Like when I learned Stephen Colbert is a huge comic book fan. :)

You do know they were on CSI? Had me laughing and someone must love the show to let them on it

[TheCorpulent1]

I knew about it, but I haven't seen it. I should watch that episode.

Love this show, Kari is GORGEOUS and you always get the feeling they're having just as good a time making it as you have watching it. Is it still in production? Discovery just seem to be screening out of order repeats?

They still airing new episodes, usually Wednesday night the new one is on

[Morg]

Mythbusters may have accidentally shot a house with a cannonball (http://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/Mythbusters-May-Have-Accidentally-Shot-House-135138678.html)

oops :o

[Sawyer]

Yep. I hope Discovery is ready for the lawsuits that these people will inevitably level them with.

[Teelie]

That is why they have insurance.

[Webhead2006]

poor mythbusters accident there. good to hear no one was hurt. But their insurance is probably going to have to pay for all those damages.

[Wolfwood]

They've probably been anticipating an incident like this for a while considering how long they've been on the air and all the crazy **** they've done.

[Webhead2006]

well i do recall in a recent episode where it was a clipshow of the best etc..... stuff where the asian guy blanking on his name mentioned a bomb thing that also causes some problems for a nearby town in the area. So this isnt really the first iccedent but the first one to get national play.

[Yurka]

I cant wait to see Adam's reaction to this in the episode when it airs.

:lmao:

[Spider-Who?]

They've promised the accident won't appear in any episodes.
