Will Adam be at open sauce in july??
The results of dozens of myths is something people often get wrong. To the point where it might equate to the Mandela effect. Just recently someone left a comment on a video demonstrating phone book friction. With some light paraphrasing they said "Mythbusters had to use two tanks. And even then, it ripped at the spine, and pages went everywhere'' Which I was 100% sure didn't happen. So I went and found the clip, and replied to the comment with the link. To which they said something like "Wow...I'm so confused. I have a vivid memory of that scene happening.''
Other misremembered results include Break Step Bridge, Pennies thrown from the empire state building, Beating the breathalyzer, Beating the Bloodhound, Motorcycle vs Car eco friendly, Sprinter vs F1 driver, bullet deflection using magnets, ice bullet and tons more, but I'm tired of typing. But yeah, people say inaccurate things all the time, and follow it with ''Yeah, mythbusters did an episode on it.''

I like you adam but i dont know you but i like you all the same :)
Could have called the video title: "Popular *Myths* About MythBusters"
Goes home with "Most Wasted Opportunity Of The Year" trophy! 🏆
Jaime cursing at a Swedish family at almost 7am while holding a homemade fishing net cannon to catch pigeons just sounds like maximum chaos energy.
Lol
That would be awesome to watch it as guy ritchie movie moment 😂
It has to be in slo mo. Nothing else would capture the magnificence of that moment. 😂😂 😂
Also them being Swedish would probably feel pretty bad but happy to have had a meet and greet with the great Moustache
Too bad there's no video.
Childhood is believing Adam was a cackling, crazy mad scientist and Jamie was the friendly walrus that tagged along that made sure no one blew themselves up.
Adulthood is realizing Adam was just a cool guy enjoying a cool job and the real crazy, unhinged mad scientist was actually Jamie all along.
And being an adult geek parent is knowing Jamie was the real crazy, unhinged mad scientist that made sure no one blew themselves up, to be more specific.
Right I was thinking that
They are both crazy, in different ways, but crazy non the less.
I always saw them both as different flavors of slightly unhinged mad scientist
Jamie was the real crazy, he may me not as energetic as Adam but his comments while doing their experiments are borderline mad scientist vibes, still love them both
Of course the biggest myth of Mythbusters is, as we all know, that Jamie was a human being. He was in fact a sophisticated robot built by Adam.
Pretty sure Jamie built himself a human body
@@3nertia That explains the human-walrus hybrid.
Shhhhhhh ....
The incalculable measure of Adam's Genius is somehow building a sentient mustache robot 10 years before Adam was born.
@@testedWhy the hell does CZcams want to translate this into English? Moreover, why is it that all the translation does is remove a single h?
Somewhere out there is a swedish family with a picture of Jamie holding a net shooting bazooka and that just makes me smile uncontrollably.
One misconception people have been spreading for quite a while now is that Adam and Jaime hate each other, based on them not being friends and clashing over things, but Adam himself has clarified that while they weren't friends and did annoy the crap out of each other, that they do respect each other and did have fun working together. I've seen quite a few people cherry-pick pieces of that context and spin it into something darker and more dramatic than it really was.
I also suspect that Jamie is more on the centrist side of politics while Adam cleary is far left.
Entirely possible. Anyway, far left though? Have some examples? This is news to me. Although, I haven't kept up with the Mythbusters, in fairness.@@justinknash
@@justinknashlol if you think Adam is far left you've clearly never met an anarco-communist.
@@justinknash why in the fuck does their politics matter lmaoooo listen to you
@@ProtoMan0451 I think he was referring to far-left brain, not far-left politics.
If i could have any superpower, it would be to be as good at storytelling as when Adam recounts the tale of that one time Jamie threatened Swedes with a six-barreled net cannon.
Seconded
Motion carried, now go impress us!👍😂
I could imagine the door opening to show Jamie looking like the heavy in team fortress.
@@zlcoolboy The Walrus captain in Sponge Bob!🤣 With the A-10's gat!!
Of all the youTubers, this man has a talent that transcends his subject-matter, and has nothing to do with the fabrication of gadgets and gizmos and his work with Mythbusters.
He has a way with _words_ : their sounds and tapestry of meanings. He has a natural art of cadence and intonation and allusion. I have heard very few people like him _anywhere_ and that includes some very bright and articulate profs when I was in college.
Where does this come from? He was a set-designer, a maker and toiler with his hands; he has a ruler etched into his very arm. He isn't a member of the literati, he isn't a poet. And yet the stream of unscripted extemporized and finely modulated prose meanders from topic to topic without the slightest apparent exertion or exhaustion.
Getting called out by the Hyneman while he is holding a tennisball canon to go and catch birds would be pretty high on my bucket list ..
Yes, to see the Hyneman in its natural habitat would be awesome. But to also have it acknowledge your presence....
Oh, priceless!
dude that what have been to pinnacle of my life
I made that pilgrimage basically on accident. My family was on vacation to San Francisco and I had the frying pan of realization hit me as we drove on the freeway. I saw Alameda signs that I'd seen in the show. I then looked up the address of M5 and, since my siblings and I were all fans, we convinced mom and dad to drive us there. I still remember the sign taped to the door thanking fans for stopping by, but reminding them it was a working business, so please don't knock, but feel free to walk around the area.
That’s a totally fair sign. Appreciate that people have that awe factor, but please let them work.
Missed a great opportunity to call them mythconceptions!
Absolutely.
Finally busting these Mythconceptions
Nice
Now they will change title 😂😂😂
Presented by Mike Tyson!
The fact that the hosts are the same people who built everything (and not a whole other team) made this show very believable and is why I like it so much
I haven't seen Adam in years since the last Mythbusters episode I seen, but he's exactly the same as I remember.
Such positive energy and passion in what he's doing, it's like time never passed at all.
welcome to tested. youll love it here, even without jamie's presence
Adam's impression of Jamie at 5:50 is legendary
Sounds just like him lol
Decades of practice.
Let's not kid ourselves. _Every_ Jamie impression is legendary.
It sounds like og half life voice lines lol
When Adam talks about having a rough day after being out of the shop, this resonates with me. As a software developer, I feel anxiety the day I get back to the office after vacation or even some weekends because I want so much to get all of the things done but that is simply not possible. It leads to not wanting to take time for myself and tends to start a negative feedback loop which has taken me nearly all of my career to figure out coping skills to deal with.
I feel you here. I get really anxious on my days off when I get them. Everything I do feels like I'm wasting the day and could be doing something even more productive.
Bro theres nothing like the feeling of a software developer looking at the nearly insurmountable amount of code they have left
What sort of coping skills have you figured out? I am becoming increasingly aware that I have a similar problem
My ship used to pass the runway and we would stand on deck with binoculars watching your team filming. I noticed that your editors edited our ship out of every episode. Not that I’m surprised. It was a very weird looking ship. I did notice that the TV show Chefs versus City left our ship in as it came in behind the two stars, and then turned to the port. It didn’t look strange until it turns where you could see the side.
The visual I have of Jamie busting out of a door with a net gun is very easy to imagine haha
🎉🎉
It's not just easy to imagine, it feels like that's just his natural state.
White shirt, signature hat and all
I always wondered what their neighbors think lol. They look out, and said, "yep he has a net gun..."
@@irwinisidro I feel like you would kinda learn pretty quick if you were neighbors of them, who and what they did.
“Heisenbirds”. You can observe them, but you can’t catch them.
It just dawned on me why I've always been so attracted to Adam Savage. His comments on ADHD and what it's like for him to work on multiple projects and the damper that traveling puts on it are 100% what I experience on a daily basis
"is not that i can change it, but understanding it helps" I needed those words today
The fact that you even approached the idea of catching your own birds is nothing short of amazing. I would have written that idea off so fast. Truly shows your dedication to the method. In hindsight I would expect nothing less from you both! 😀
As Technology has improved since Mythbusters went off the air, are there any myths that you would like to revisit using the new tech in case the outcome could be different?
This is the question I'd ask any of the Mythbusters if I met them
@@kennethallen3843Stop calling them the "Mythbusters" they're the "Thymbusters" 🙄😒😤🤬.
@@kennethallen3843And they study "Thyms" 😠.
I am amazed that Adam actually got the three accents all pretty much right and still distinct from each other. Kind regards a Swede
I’m Australian and also found that impressive. Considering how his Australian accent on Mythbusters always sounded like if Steve Irwin were a pirate, it’s good to hear the subtlety of the different accents here.
Adam just loves situations where Jamie gets really mad and the mustache starts quivering.
Watching the show, it definitely did give the impression that there was multiple people there to help with building. Not so much that Adam and Jamie didn't do it, but that they had multiple assistants to operate heavy machines and such whenever they had to set something up. Maybe what I saw was just the film crew, I don't know.
I know at M5, Jaime had his own employees that would show up on camera time to time. Heck Kari was one of them in the first season as an intern. And not to mention the mytherns.
Jamie coming out of the shop with a 6-barreled cannon pointed at me right after I rolled up would have made me first pee a little, then laugh until I couldnt breath. The vision in my head of what that looked looked like is fantastic.
You are the #1 reason I pursued mechanical design. They say don't meet your hero's, but I am certain you're the exception to that rule. The spark in your eye when you talk about your passion is inspiring! I hope for the opportunity to meet you and say thank you some day. You all made such a big impact on my life.
holy crap, i remember that bird truck episode. and the mental image of jamie walking out with the net cannon, and cursing at a random swedish family behind the scenes is glorious.
I still watch Mythbusters streaming and I still smile thru the whole show at the energy, exuberance, and fun you guys portrayed. And I'm smiling right now watching your youtube channel.
I can just imagine Jamie emerging with his cannon. Fantastic story. 👍
Jamie meeting tourists with a bird catcher at the ready and grumpy as hell
Is the best story I’ve heard all month
I feel like everyone involved with the show has generally been pretty good about busting "Mythbuster myths" as they gained popularity, like the myth that Adam and Jamie actually despise each other (they don't- they just always have dealt with each other on a professional level, not being 'friends' in a social setting).
I find the idea of Adam despising anyone to be completely alien.
@@iciclecold2991he would enthusiastically disagree at most.
7:36 - love the use of the term succor... I remember learning that word some years back, but I don't hear it often!
Oh man that's an incredible mental image, a family pulling in just in time to see Jaime bust through the door holding a cannon aimed right at them
"Who the fuck are those people?" *BOOM!*
I have found Adam's discussions on creative processes to be helpful. I'm always juggling different projects and that was such a great question about juggling/switching tasks. I am a musician myself but pretty much all of that applies with me too!
You guys and The Crocdile Hunter were my childhood, I’m glad to know you did everything yourself
Steve Irwin?
@@HOTD108_Jeff Corwin
Just imagining Jamie stepping out like the Terminator with that net cannon, that is such a great story 😂
"I have mild ADHD" 🤣🤣😉
As a mild ADHD-er myself, I can relate 100% to wanting to do too many things in one day, it can be a real struggle to pick where to start!
That description of "I was bouncing around and I kinda sorta had to suffer through the day never feeling like I was getting ahead of something", super fricken relatable. If I could change one thing about myself, it would be "be faster at realizing that my brain is all over the place". Just realizing the state that my brain is in, as it's happening in real time would be a huge super power.
Another reflection: When Adam said "and then I'll wait for another idea to come along that I'll get excited about". That's really the ADHD super power, right there. Powerful motivation, nearly as if it were your life's purpose, to get that thing done. Not only motivation, but hyperfocus, learning things quickly when you're in that mood. If I could find the magic formula to get that feeling for every task that needs doing, I'd be a much better place (physically, mentally and financially).
YES! “i wanted too much out of the day” hit home. Really that whole story was the best description of my day to day that i think i’ve ever heard (of course Adam’s day is definitely way cooler than mine). Awesome to hear this, definitely not what i expected to get out of this video lol
Thinking back to MYTHBUSTERS, I think my favorite, or one of my favorite episodes was one of the most simple. When you tried to fold a piece of paper more than seven times. You guys got a HUGE piece of paper, the size of your warehouse, and still couldn't fold it more than seven times. Crazy fun. Simple, but undeniable, and provable. Pure mythbusting at it's best.
I like that episode too! I also like the myth attached to it which is underwater car
Uh, they folded that huge paper like 10+ times. They busted that myth.
From what I remember, they failed folding a normal sized piece of paper 7+ times, but succeeded in the large paper by hand and used a steamroller and forklift for a few more folds for good measure.
@@monke12354still
So when Adam described Jamie emerging from the door with the netgun, did anyone else hear 'Also sprach Zarathustra' and envision smoke?
No, but I am now.
I just imagined him coming out in slo-mo
As a show fan, I always thought M5 was their existing prop making company in Hollywood general area, having boxes of previously made props and prop industry tools like car flipping devices and quick-release hooks .
man, i so miss MythBusters ... the oil and water of Jamie & Adam was such a great dynamic of the show. I'm so inspired to try and create stuff from MythBusters and everyone on the show
Thank you for taking us through a rough day in the shop. It's a relief knowing that I'm not alone in the frustration of planning, processing, and managing task switching & short term / long term project priorities and satisfaction.
In terms of builds, even though it says it in the show introduction, I think people forgot that, together, you had like 30 years of movie effects builds, or something like that. Everyone just forgot that you all had careers before that show.
Jamie, saying " who the fk are those people" hahaha
Well he was trying to keep the crew away and was unhappy people were there to mess it up.
I never thought of it as a pilgrimage, but i stopped by for a picture of M5 one time I was in San Francisco too! I was surprised by just how small a shop it is!
I remember seeing it too and thinking, theres no way they would be able to do large builds, and film it too! And even doing outside experiments without dealing with pedestrians and neighbors. But I guess that's just the things they have to deal with.
The biggest misconception was Scottie being kicked out due to electrocuting Adam.
I miss Scottie, she was a goddess!
Anyone who hasn't electrocuted Adam as badly or frequently as Adam has is probably safe. Which is likely everyone.
Well what’s the real reason then?
Seriously, pretty sure being willing to electrocute Adam was part of the job description.
Nah, biggest one is believing they just ended the show; Kari demanding a pay increase of 2x or she'd refuse to come back was the reason the build team was let go, which ultimately caused Adam and Jamie to call it quits before the PR backlash and "sexism" accusations caused a media firestorm.. That's why in the very last episode when they were sitting around the table, Adam eye-balled Kari specifically when he said "thank you for being willing to come back and sit here"
Mythbusters taught me fundamental physics that i did not understand as a child. for example i would ask my mom "if you fell from a plane why cant you just jump off something before you hit the ground, i know its obvious now but when i was young i really thought you could do that. my mom would say no that's not possible but i didn't understand why and my mother could not explain in the detail i was hoping for. until i saw the episode about the elevator in free fall. it finally gave me the proper answer i was looking for.
That Swedish pigeon story was brilliant
Most "fun" projects often have an arduous task, moment, or two that usually makes people want to throw the whole thing out. However, when the project is complete we feel so much more accomplished having overcome any hiccups in our projects.
I always say that it’s not a real hobby/passion unless you rage quit constantly but keep going back because you want to see it through
@@shutterbug8860 true perseverance comes out of a labor of love.
To be honest, I’ve been down because tv and entertainment is lacking in intellectual stimulation. But it’s a relief to be reminded of Adam and Mythbuster’s scientific and engineering approaches to questions in an entertaining way.
Thanks to these great insights about working on creative projects! Feels refreshing to hear how you handle having a "creative block", like about the long term projects/overwhelmed feeling.
At the time of this post it was 552 comments. I did scroll through a large part, but not all of them. The fact that Adam continues to talk about how his own disabilities affect him, and how he tries to overcome them is refreshing. I am in a similar but not exact head space that Adam discusses on his videos. We're not privy to his actual home life, nor should we be, but the fact that he continues to put on camera his struggle and how he's dealing should be commended and pointed out. Find me another famous maker that gives you this much insight into their mental wellbeing.
Plus who doesn't enjoy watching him walk around his shop talking to no one, but like there's 10 people there to give feed back. Truly my most favorite maker subscription.
Oh how my family loves Mythbusters! My husband and I watched it when we were first married. When our daughter was born, we bought all the seasons, and she has watched them over and over. Her science knowledge is outstanding for a 9 year old, and she constantly amazes people. And "birds in a truck" is one of her favorite episodes. She even knows what season and episode number it is.
My favorite Mythbusters fan interaction was the group that showed up at the shoot at Hamilton AFB, and at the end they yelled "Mythbusted!" I have ADHD myself and I understand all about unexpetedly switching gears being frustrating. It happens to me at work and it drives me batty!
I also have ADHD and gear shifting has been a bit of a problem for me as well. I also play a lot of video games so I've developed a coping mechanism based on that. I have a manufacturing job so I may perform the same set of motions anywhere up to a thousand times per day. If I'm needed to switch gears at any point I know that "This is my job, I'm getting paid to do this even if it interrupts my workflow." So I create mental checkpoints. I finish a cycle of whatever it is I'm doing. I would also compare it to finishing a paragraph or chapter of a book when reading. Decide for yourself a good place to stop that is easy to pick back up.
Love the honesty of pressure. My job is pressure heavy...but how I wished I worked in 'my place'...you've nailed it Adam. Don't get me wrong. Love my job...but I am not doing my passions for a living. I write songs, We have SERIOUS lego in my home...I make models (mainly star wars 'old' models)...
If I could only get rid of the 'work' 🙄
I grew up watching you guys on Mythbusters and now as an adult I find myself here watching one of the Mythbusters talking about the show.....typing this thinking about how much all you guys made an impact on everything I do. I don't know how many times I've been able to answer someone's wild question of if something would work or could happen. All because you guys took the time to figure out the wild, funny, cool and gross myths. I just want to say thank you for all the great scientific childhood memories.
RIP Grant
I'm playing an artificer in dnd and his personality is as close to Adam's as I can get...he's truly an inspiration for our generations mad scientists
One of my big issues at work has always been dealing with people who want to try to solve all the worlds problems all at once (this especially applies to software developers), rather than recognizing the things that they CAN take charge over instead of getting depressed over all the things that are beyond them to deal with or so frustrated with the overwhelming size of it all that they found it difficult to do *anything*. So trying to keep people practical and focused was a big issue for such people. You can to, from time to time, take them aside and pull them back down to earth, give them a narrow focus, and let them go. Adam's Monday story reminds me a lot of those people.
Adam Savage's appearance has improved over the years more than just about anyone else I can think of.
The enthusiasm that you have sharing these stories makes me smile, to see you still have a passion of these stories and subjects is infectious sir!
Jamie's encounter with the tourists sounds like a video game boss' entrance.
One I hear a lot is “Adam and Jamie hated each others guts and the show ended cause they couldn’t stand working together” and I used to just take that at face value. But once I started watching all your Q&A videos I realised that wasn’t really the case
2:12 answered a question I had always wondered. Somehow I missed that episode.
I would listen to Adam talk about anything for hours and hours lol.
"Wanting too much from a day" and then being disappointed hits really close as someone with ADHD. Beautifully put.
Jamie should have gone to the IKEA parking garage to get pigeons. They have big fat, slow ones at our local store.
Mythbusters is one of my favorite tv shows,now when I watch a western movie and someone tries to shoot a rope with a gun and it breaks, I remember you guys busted that myth
His workshop is the definition of organized chaos 😂
That pigeon story is so funny. Them people were so fortunate to arrive at a great time.
I was reading on Reddit where a person said they worked right by M5 during the MB days and the best he saw/got was a picture of Adam in his car. Like he never saw anything 'Mythbustery' even working/passing by daily.
So, how fortunate were they?! I'm glad Jamie didn't get mad and run them off because his damn pigeons flew away agin 😂❤
Wow! You refer to MythBusters as a reality show!? I never thought of it as such, it's too good. (I despise so-called reality shows.)
The best kind of reality show: one that entertains _and_ educates.
"Reality shows" existed for many, many years before stuff like Survivor and whatnot became a thing.
@@badbirdkcthe very 1st few seasons of The Real World & Road Rules was the orgin in late 90's and it was so cool, till it became such sideshow as it is now
It really was - at a certain point it became almost as much about the process as the result.
"We made a REAL reality show" Adam with the FACTS!
I live over in the Central Valley so whenever I was in SF I'd drive by M5 hoping to see a member of the team. Never did, but it was a fun ritual.
“I wanted too much from the day” is one of the best statements that explains soo much in life
God do I miss mythbusters. It was just such a positive show.
It seems like a lost era now!
@@RideAcrossTheRiver , not just lost. But there is a whole generation that doe snot seek.
Because the seeking is done for them.
Adam Savage busting myths about MythBusters - who saw THAT coming? 😳
Is the only myth is how Adam and Jamie were professional about the show? They only worked together for the show and not outside?
Yeah lol..have you searched for interviews where Adam talks about the dynamics between them and how they are complete opposites and it was regularly difficult for them to work together.
Also talked about contact with each other outside of work and post mythbusters
Before MB they did work together in Jamie’s business.
@@glennac I think they are only co workers at most,.. outside their expertise don't mix
He's talked about this multiple times before. A lot of people are surprised they weren't best friends off the show. It was and is a business relationship, their personalities are pretty opposite and that's it, they're not enemies or anything. There are some people you work with that you may not have any harsh feelings towards, and you may work well together with, but y'all just don't get along great outside of work.
They both worked towards a common goal, i think their different approaches and overall thinking helped a lot with getting the best out of each other. With their professional attitude they kept it together, for the most part.
As someone also with a mild (is it, though? 🤔) form of ADHD, and doing a PhD interspersed with lots of smaller projects in between, I completely feel Adam’s comments regarding return, control, etc. And here’s the thing: while I love the theoretical aspect of things, getting into a state of flow when it comes to reading and writing feels *much* harder than when it comes to making, especially if we’re talking completely unrelated or, at the very best, work-adjacent stuff, active-procrastination-style. 😅
Case in point: this summer I had heaps of fun adapting an existing draftsman’s table chair base in order to graft an IKEA chair on top of it (I needed something with armrests to avoid getting a bad case of RSI while writing my thesis), which took me about three weeks because my tools were crap and my knowledge lacking, whereas when it comes to my main project, I have an easier time with smaller, non-core tasks.
Wait. Those are pretty good Swedish and Danish accents. Does Adam have a hidden talent I don’t know about? Got bored and spent a summer learning accents or something?
Truly a renaissance man.
Now I will watch the rest of the video.
One misconception I had to understand as I grew older was that Mythbusters was intended to be demonstrative, not scientifically rigorous and thorough. It was intended to explore things at a more or less cursory level to instill intrigue and scientific curiosity, not necessarily to give a definitive answer to the questions being addressed.
For example, there was a B-team myth about airplanes rattling nails loose from a old building, but the only test was pointing a loud speaker at a nailed joint and calling it a day, when the myth was about a building that was years old with planes flying overhead multiple times per day.
Surely one popular misconception is (or at least was) Adam and Jamie being good friends, whereas the reality was they were just co-workers and didn't associate with one another outside of the show/show related events.
Early in the run of the show I had, somehow, gotten the impression that Adam and Jamie were a couple.
Jamie knew his style was too boring for it to be just him. He suggested Adam.
If there ever was a dead horse, that would be it. That has been talked about SO many times.
And honestly looking back and watching the show it's pretty clear that that's exactly what their relationship always was. They were never buddy-buddy, but they worked super well together as professionals and got to share some extraordinarily cool experiences together and honestly I think I prefer that over them being BFFs
@@zacharyliles8657 and yet you would think people get close after working for like 10 years together.
From outside of the situation in question, I can only imagine that seeing a pissed off Jamie Hyneman is hilarious.
The fan interaction story. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 It's pure gold!! 😂😂
2:38 The most Jaime thing ever "Jaime wanted to make something so he made something."
I constantly struggle from wanting too much out of a day. I do a little of everything and then don't feel accomplished at the end of the day.
8:50 having the feeling of not getting ahead of anything is rough. I'm currently doing my PhD research and that is what I'm feeling everyday. Thank you for the inspiration Adam 🙂
Recently finished mine, it's hard, trust me when I say we all go through that problem (kind've the nature of a PhD)
I completely understand the feelings Adam was talking about. I recently had a shop built and ever since then I've been doing shop projects. I haven't had the time to build something for the enjoyment of building it. I have enjoyed the shop projects to an extent because I enjoy puzzle solving but they dont really satisfy that creativity itch.
Wow, the pigeon cannon is somehow the most Mythbusters thing to have ever happened
I've been systematically going through all the Mythbusters seasons again reliving the glory days of TV lol. Love the CZcams channel as always!
Yknow that’s what it is. He and Hank Green have very similar energies. A pure and thoughtful love of what they do and the world
Your tale towards the end about your own creativity and finding inspiration was lovely. I didn't have "crying because something Adam Savage said" on my 2023 bingo card. But it felt really familiar
I never once thought you guys had a team of people building your stuff. Also bring back the marathon at Christmas time
ADAM 😍 just discovered your channel and I’m so glad I get to keep watching your amazing videos!!! You were always my favorite 💓💓💓
"I have so many things to do and I want to do it all!".
Yeah... I can relate to that...
A LOT!
I can see Jamie's mustache practically bursting into flames as he yells 'WHO THE F ARE THOSE PEOPLE???"
This is so good to hear the wacky shenanigans you guy's got up too, I was sad to see MB Finish by far my fave one was when you made a bridge out of duct tape like that's crazy strong, and the one where you tried to see how high you could get cola with mints :P
I could listen to Adam all day about Mythbusters stories, set ups, and failures, and all the stuff going on.
Six-barreled fishing net cannon. Madness.
Great story, always taken aback by how friendly the Mythbuster and Tested teams seem. We need more energy like this in the world.
“Unexpected gear switching is really rough for me”
Hearing that was a eureka moment for me. I am the exact same.
