Yah... it shits me off though how they don't make any referance to the Mythbusters as an actual programme. BTW Foxtel subscribers, this show is on the Discovery channel like... everyday, put it in your programme guide 003_wink.gif

Mmm... if you guys like the shit you see on SBS, you'd cream yourselves with the amazing documentaries and informative programmes Foxtel has on Discovery, National Geographic and Animal Planet, they be my favorites... but theres stacks more including Discovery Science 'n shit yo.

Trying to bust the myth is funny, but once it's busted and they see what it would actually take to make it happen anyway......damn it's the best thing on TV 006_grin.gif

Prefering to watch it when I want and not when foxtel or SBS tell me I can, I prefer to obtain my copy from the Bit torrent channel 001_smile.gif

This show is gold.
I especially liked the episode where they rigged up a nail gun to fire pennys to test the old throw a penny off the empire state bulding and they ended up shooting one another in the arse with it. Classic 016_lol.gif

that was classic, they did a similar thing this monday just been, when (Adam I think) was testing the voltage thing and they were getting currents from his arse.

The fireworks in the musical instrument one was interesting and they had the cops come to see what the fuck was going on. Also the one with the barrel and the guy goes up, barrel goes dorn and breaks, bricks fall out man goes down barrel back up he lets go and barrel falls down on him - disorganised chaos

I know someone who siad they tried it and it worked. Probably bullshittin though.

I wanna see if its possible to get caught in the little metal thingys at the end of an escalator. Ive heard many stories of this happening.

ive had my shoe laces get cought in there before...and usually they just rip off, once i tripped cuz it wouldnt rip

Makes it sound like this has happened to you more than once. Do up your shoelaces or get velcro 003_wink.gif

Did you see the one where they painted one of them in gold latex...
I'm not whinging. I've just got an opinion!

I liked the one where they blew the shite out of that old plane with the C4 - that was a kickass myth to bust!

Also the one with the hick that poured petrol down the pipe to blow up the racoon, buit blew himself up instead, was also wicked - but only when they used gunpowder and blocked off one end of the tunnel & shot buster & that racoon toy out of it ;D

Is Kari the redhead? She's cute ^_^ - tho the mechanic chick has appeal as she could soop your car up whilst you sat on your ass and drank beer ;D

Ohhh ... i think it's aspirin, and not panadol. Because seagulls can't pass wind, and the aspirin foams up inside them and they can't get rid of the gas.

Maybe ...

Bi-carb Soda was said to be used by some peeps i knew when i was younger. The Bi-carb reacts with the stomach acid and reacts like when we were kids n made model volcanoes.. Sounds plausible 037_unsure.gif

I just came in this thread to post something similar!

Great show though. I think the one where they shot buster out of the cannon and the one with the balloons tied to the chair are my favourites.

Did anyone see when they put the gun powder in the 'JawBreaker' lol.

Haha hear that folks death metal for your plants. Man thats classic its actually crazy that plants did grow better when you talked to them but the fact that they grew best to death metal well I have nothing to say to that. Go the bug spray house I was hoping for a better boom but still regardless it was great to watch. Such a classic show!

i would say it would be morelikely to sun conditions the airtightnets of the green houses, the water flow into each green house, as there would be more water going to certain jets as they all came from the one hose,

lotsa factors they didt take into account.

Just found this....

"Did your mother ever warn you that "cracking" your knuckles would give you arthritis? If she did, we're sorry to say that she was wrong! Research has actually shown that individuals who habitually "crack" their knuckles over their lifetime actually lower the incidence of arthritis in their knuckles compared with those who do not. Researchers believe the knuckle "cracking" increases joint nutrition and maintains joint motion, both of which are essential for a healthy joint."

Dude "The bottom line: While cracking knuckles may not get you arthritis faster, it won't win you many fans and might injure those fingers in other ways. So it's best not done."


I dont care but some people believe everything people say so you probably shouldnt post stuff like this, "Researchers believe the knuckle "cracking" increases joint nutrition and maintains joint motion, both of which are essential for a healthy joint."
