I haven't seen these episodes in more than 16 years. I used to watch mythbusters as a kid every weekday evening. I had such a crush on Kari lol. It's great to be able to watch them in english (I watched a dubbed version then) and this show is even better than I remembered. I'm still very sad Grant's gone, but he is forever immortalized by this show.
It was sad hearing about his passing. This show was amazing and now that I'm old, I kinda forget most of the results so it's kinda like watching a new show. 😅
I still have a massive crush on Kari!
I like to watch the show in original language. It is great to have it available on youtube.
I kinda wish they had a third one filled with Sulfer-hexoflouride. It's about as many times as dense as air as air is as dense as helium.
That was so hard to read.
that was as hard to read as air as air is as dense as helium
needs more as
Or radon.
@@allanshpeley4284iirc Radon is slightly radioactive. So you'll need a lead lined football 😊
RIP grant Imahara. My favourite cast member
get ready for trolls to rip you apart.
After all. It is only allowed by certain people and for so many times to pay your respect.
Now it is not allowed anymore, especially not by people like you and me.
I have at least 2 trolls in my comment thread.
Let's count how many will appear here.
After all: It is a horrible thing for you to do. Pay respect. Horrible indeed.
And so there should be trolls in the responses on this comment like there were on my almost exact same comment on another video from MB.
😢😢
Yikes, that pig jaw rig is gnarly. But then their most disgusting one remains the imploded "meat man" squeezed into the diving helmet lol
Nah. Pigs in a car was the rawest. It's so visceral that you don't need to see it to smell the stink of liquefied pig.
@@aserta Oh yeah I forgot about that one hahaha
I loved how anticlimactic the phrase ~"back at nasa, they test helium footballs" 🤣
“Keri’s quick on the draw when it comes to opening her mouth.” 😂
The kick-machine was my first quess before the action. And yeah, the physics says itself that the helium myth is only a myth :)
18:45 "extremly senstive scales" goes only to 0.1g
me who has scales at work that goes 0.001g "yeah about that"
spot the drug dealer ^^
This is an old ass show.
Or spot the chemist, which is the reason I have one at work too 😂
Give him a break, the show forced them to work in american imperial, didn't you hear him talking about thousandths of a pound?! To Americans, a gram is already super duper precise.
@@darocks6501 precision scales known for centuries. The show is not that old they could have obtained 0.01 scales easy.
@der_schweizer_244 what is maximum weight for your scales? I mean I have 0.01 mg scales at work, but maximum weight for this discretion is only 50g. 1mg scales as yours can have max weight 200 - 1000g, but 1000g scales with this discretion have a cost about $2000, a bit too expensive for the Mythbusters' needs with regard to this myth.
"Weren't you the captain of the flag team in Indiana in like the 20's?" "No, wrong Jamie" - Broke me.
ı just love them man they are like my childhood idol adults
The football hat had me cackling
A heavier gas would have made a ball point, MORE MOMENTUM.
"It blew its teeth out!" What did you expect? Lol
As a non-American rugby fan, American football kit always looks so weird 😅
The contraption that closes the pig's jaw is applying force in the front of the teeth, whereas when we really bite onto something don't we apply force on the back side of the jaw? Just saying like they should have placed the closing mechanism on the rear side of the jaw rather than on the front.
And would that change the fact that teeth isn't strong enough for the forces applied?
I'm guessing part of the trick is that bullets used in the trick have less propellant than regular bullets, assuming there isn't some slight of hand going on.
Its so funny that they talked about how accurate those scales needed to be, and i have a 0.01g scale next to me that i got for like $5 while theres only went to 0.1g
Did you check your 5$ scale with reference weights? For this price the error might be way more than 0.01. Also consider the maximum mass they can weight.
But 0.1 g isn't much, I agree. For 400g weight they could have had scales with 0.01g resolution and error about ~0.003g or lower. It wouldn't be too expensive either. Around $200 maybe, which is not that much.
@@d4slaimless Yup. It's out now from years of being carried around and stood on and shit, but when I got it, it was accurate down to like 0.01 and 150g. It could weigh more but it would start going out after that, but that was with super heavy weights, idk wtf I would put on that 1 inch square that would weigh more
Every single person on the team knew that there was no chance teeth could catch a bullet, but it's great tv, and by doing it properly, they showed people who can't think, that it's impossible
So, the eiffel tower has a square base of 15.625 (125m per size), 330m tall and weighs around 10.100.000kg.
If we are going to make a cilinder, the smallest possible base that it can have is the square diagonal
d² = 125² + 125² => d = 176 (radius is 88)
The cilinder total volume would be:
pi * 88² * 330 = 8.024.332 m³
Since each cubic meter weighs about 1.3kg the total weight is:
10.431.632kg
It is actually true, eiffell tower needs protein for some gains
Why they went with punting instead of kickoffs to humanly test the helium balls is beyond me. Kickoffs from a tee would give a lot more similar kicks, not punting.
You’re right, and that isn’t the only flaw.
Some of the flaws include: Only one kicker, too few samples, doing it by batch, letting the kicker hold the balls, et al.
Edit: The entire human experiment is probably a red herring for tv purposes as only a robotic “kicker” could have tested it accurately.
8:03 giggity
I've never seen that clip with the paintballs at 15 minutes.
That had to be the most Jamie ever laughed in his life.
Please put the episodes on the myths of Archimedes 🤩🤩🤩
4:59 Football?
Come on America.
It would help if you guys had learned it by now haha.
Yeah, American football has less foot and more hand in it, so it should be called handball. Oh wait...
Srsly TH-cam I got a commercial about toothpaste in this Video? 😂
Adam sounds like a character from South Park while on helium.
19:16 goblin chewing gum lol
Perhaps it is easier to deflate the football for the kick. LOL right Boston LMAO
Laces out
The bullet in that 1950s show didn't sound like a fully loaded bullet
I forgot how heinous this episode was lol
Shocking, an episode without messed up audio. Such a shame a majority of the official episodes are ruined like that.
sulfur hexa chlorite makes your voice deeper... both mixed... well dont know
I miss the energy and humor of Kari, Tory and Grant. Their parts of the show were my favorite. Also, that look of Kari @8:25.....ouch.... :D :D :D
Wonder what happens if you fill the ball with helium up to the same weight as the air-ball, thus increasing the PSI, or if the ball will explode from the pressure beforehand.
26:08 At this part, they should have some Mexicans playing "Funky Town" in the background.
5:08 imagine saying that these days...
42:43 the metal sign in the background says "myth plausible" in greek. does anyone know which episode was this from?
The Death Ray one, IDK the number, please someone link
@@alexhousakos there was two episodes on that. "Mythbusters Season 2 Episode 4 - Ancient Death Ray". And "Mythbusters Season 4 Episode 3 - Archimedes Death Ray Revisited". But they are both "Busted". So it has to be from another one
These guys r nuts and I love it🤣
Funny that Americans don't use metric system and their 'ball' is also egg shape
Funny how everyone else calls a rugby ball a "ball" when Its also an egg shape
Lmao
Eh...It is a ball...
The fact that most balls are SPHERES doesn't mean that all balls need to be spheres.
2:45 - The coach's voice sounds exactly like 'The Rock'
Tom Brady watching this like 👀
39:07 - has to adjust 1 millisecond and does so then proceeds to explain to camera that needs to adjust by 1 millisecond and does it again. So he changed it by 2 milliseconds and that is why it closed too soon again.
It looks to me that the timer was showing 0.090, he then did one up to 0.091 and then while explaining on camera he presses one down, making it back to 0.090. Check it out. He didn't change anything actually.
It is possible that timer was showing 0.092, hard to see. But when he adjusts 1st time his finger makes upward motion as if he presses up button. With the close up shoot you can see different movement of the finger when he presses down.
Even Lucky Luke used a trick to get the bullet looking like he catched it with his mouth...and he was faster than his own shadow (and a cartoon figure). So i rather stick with Arnold Schwarzenegger aka The Terminator, who said to this topic exactly:"Don't do that!"
If extra mass helps the football go further, they should have tested filling it with radon gas.
when you look at the bite testing device you know something is wrong. not that it would have made any difference :P
Batching can skew the results. You should have some of both in each batch, and have it done by multiple people. Also don't let them hold it so their personal bias doesn't skew results. But yeah, that probably would make a tad longer and more boring show :p
Boy I sure can't wait to find out whether it's true that you can catch a bullet in your teeth.
@_@
More pressure is more weight in the Football.
I saw an act near Lake Oneida, when I was a kid. A woman with a funnel took a shot between her teeth. It was what we called a .22 BB cap, similar to the rounds fired at the old shooting galleries on board walks and fairs up and down the east coast. It was a great show but a shooting gallery thing, closer in the night club. Of course it could have killed her but much less than the M X V of a .45. More impressive to me was at the end of the summer a knife throwing act. As a kid with bb guns and later a .22. We felt we could dodge the danger, a .22 bb cap, basically a ball on the primer, nothing else and did not pierce the skin at 30 feet and beyond. During my time in the Navy I had plenty of small arms training. I like the .45 ACP. Nice weight and good balance. Pre armor we fired standing one handed with the profile of the body presented. A 45 rocks the arm back. My limits was my noise tolerance. No ear muffs that I remember in boot, in Vietnam and later plinking in the back yard. Of course I am almost deaf from that but more deaf from shitting medical care to us way back then up to today. frack!!!
As a wise man once said, "9mm kills the body, .45 kills the soul"
9:39 the editing ROLF
David Blaine has entered the chat. 😅
funny watermarks.
Not right, humans do work on helium but only under extreme pressure. Like a deep sea diver.
You don’t breathe pure helium during saturation diving, it’s a mix. Helium facilitates breathing but you don’t actually breathe it.
Can you shoot a football out of a real cannon?
Tom Brady is married to a handsome man.
So cool
First comment 😅😅
