MythBusters!

[ray_MAN]

Does anyone watch that show on the Discovery Channel? I love it. It is interesting and funny at the same time. I am awaiting a new one though... I want to TiVo it. :farmer:

I just have normal public television and a VCR here...

[Farrowlesparrow]

From what ive heard of it, it sounds likea thing we have (had) over here called Braniac: Science Abuse. Where they basically blow stuff up, and do other such fun things in the name of science. A long running thing they had was a safe which they would try to brake into each week. They dropped it from a crane, hit it with a car, got fire men to try and saw it with the huge equipment they have, called in bomb experts to try and blow it up, they even shot it with a tank...unfortunately i never saw the one with the tank. I dunno what happened to that program, it was fun.

They also did things like eating poppy seeds and going for blood tests, walking on a pool of custard and testing out other so called "facts". For instance staring at a womans breast is for 30 minutes is apprently equal to 30 mins exercise...it wasnt true but one volunteer was a very happy man afterward.

i liked that show :) pity its over now though :( the tank one was the last [it completetly obliterated the safe]. on a side note, my dad has that safe :smoking: hes a jeweler.

Anyone know what they are doing this sunday on MythBusters?

[ray_MAN]

No, I never checked.

[Deadline]

I can only hope it has something to do with fire and methane gas... :laugh:

[ray_MAN]

:laugh: :laugh:

[Brian Damage]

Cult Of The Avatars! Aarrrrgh!

[Direwolf]

Love that show...I'm always watching stuff like that. Anyone see the one where they checked out the rocket car myth? One of the best things ever on TV.

[chu]

anyone know what movies they worked on?

[Fender357]

They never say.

My friends cousin does special effects makup and stuff...like the blood and guts stuff. Steven Speilburg always has him do the stuff for his movies.
I know he's done Saving Private Ryan..and the other one I know he did for sure was Jurasic Park (only the first one)

[SubKamran]

I watch it sometimes. I saw the one where they disproved the "Cell phones cause gas fires". It's in fact sparks, not cell phones.

[Vinnie_NL]

I always try to watch it. It's one of my most fav tv shows ever, toghether with Seinfeld, Red Dwarf and Scrubs. I don't know which episode I liked the most, every episode is funny AND interesting :thumbs:

[SupremePain]

yeah i watch that show, good to know that theres atleast 2 people out there bigger nerds than myself.

[Gray Fox]

I watch it, and yeah it rocks :)

[oldagerocker]

My cousin worked on the Anamatronics for Jurrasic Park (mainly the T-Rex), and If you guys ever visit Hollywood Studios California, and go on the tram ride, my cousin made the bananna breath for the King-Kong part.. :E

[JimmehH]

I love the show. I watch it on Mondays on the Discovery Channel (in the UK). You can find out what movies and stuff they've worked on at their sites.

[Ecthe|ioN]

I love that show too. The rocket car was amazing.

[Jack_Karverboy]

Yeah it's pretty good. The latest one I've seen was where they tried to figure out if you could survive in a plummetting elevator if you jumped right before it hit the bottom...you can't. :D

[Sainku]

Yeah thats a good one, I loved how they made buster jump. Nice bump :D

[Kamikazie]

[The Brick]

I have every single episode and special up to date on my hdd. And that won't change any time soon :) Mythbusters F***ing owns.

[Javert]

Wow, this got bumped so hard even post-pregnancy Britney Spears must have felt something.


But yes Mythbusters is a totally awesome show, Bay Area pride!

[jibcart]

:flame: I like Mythbusters, but none of my friends do. I thought I might have been the only one until I saw this all. I liked the one with the civil war rocket that almost killed those guys. :flame:

[craig]

I love Mythbusters. Must have seen every episode on ESS now.

I loved the special on sharks... especially the FBI using the C4 at the end to blow up the scuba tank.

[kjac]

Yes I watch that show here and there, but mainly because Kari is FINE!
