In typical style, Jamie actually managed to piss off the person operating the vomit machine instead of vomiting himself.
He's a licensed diver and I'm pretty sure he knows how to sail so I'm really not sure why thought he'd be a candidate whatsoever. I get that not all seafarers are immune to seasickness but he's proven time and again he is.
@@WalkerRileyMC Because it's just part of collecting data. you want even redundant data. That helps. Plus it's both funny for the show, and probably the way they worked it out behind the scenes too. I just assume.
My parents let me watch mythbusters when I was very little. Maybe 4-7. I can honestly say that is probably a big reason i’m now studying engineering in college. Thank you guys.
same man
Ya same here
Glad I'm not the only one in that camp lol. I wonder how many thousands of people they influenced to make cool things.
Slowly but surely we'll get all the episodes eventually.
Doubtful, I can't even click on the channel name it just gives a link error... Feel like this channels getting shut down soon... in wayback machine its russian?
@@AbrasiveCarl yeah opening it in a new tab tries to open Mythbusters channel
but the link for this is @Mythbusterstvshow
@@AbrasiveCarl this channel is owned by corporation that has the rights for Mythbusters show (Banijay Science). Check your Internet.
@@AbrasiveCarl I think you're just having issues, it's completely fine for me.
it is inevitable, here, have a herring
I love how the intro stopped making a distinction between Adam and Jamie and the build team. It used to imply Adam and Jamie were the “Mythbusters” and Tory, Grant and Kary were just helpers or something. Now they’re all “The Mythbusters” and I love it.
Rest in peace Grant
The children crave the full episodes. We crowd around them as fleas on a dog. Writhing before them, foaming for more.
You seen Shark Exorcist too?
@@EricHamm I have not, actually. Did I just accidentally quote something?
I am so happy to not have to watch these episodes on 240p with multiple zooms. Thank you to whoever did this!
This comment is too relatable
I actually like how they aren't uploading them in order, but kind of randomly. It recreates the feeling of catching random re-runs on TV, but with the ability to pause if I need to take a shit.
Vitamin B12 is actually used to treat nausea, especially in pregnant women. They chose the wrong drug to use as a placebo. Usually you want to use a sugar pill to be 100% that the effects are not correlated with the substance given.
RIP Grant ♥
❤❤
the sea sick chair had to be one of the most evil thing's made by kari . i have no doubt that Adam an the late great Grant hated the very sight of that thing for years an i cant say i blame them . these 2 myths are another set of classic myths that made the show so fun to watch . . thanks for posting the full episodes i look forward to the spicals like the dukes of hazard an shark myths along with the episode's dealing with urban legends
Id go so far as to say the chair had a not insignificant contribution to his early exit stage left.
@@daycmetrollingdeihatin5100 How?
26:39 years later with headphones, I'm positive tori said "shit"
Edit: by the looks of it, Adam said it, he briefly covered his mouth after, indicative of recognition that what was uttered was obscene. I'll never recover from this, I've seen what a shotgun blast does to a ballistics gel dummy but hearing the word "Shit" that corrupted my mind
Another headphone user, I double checked and can confirm. Definitely didn't catch it on Discovery!😅
I may never mentally recover from this
the 3 people who didn't get sick on the chair all moved their head quickly. The slower head moves match with the ocean, and the chair speed. Which I would expect to cause worse confusion than moving quickly
I've suffered ONE major bout of seasickness in my life (never again), and a lengthy record of motion queasiness. So, I deeply respect Adam and Grant for voluntarily undergoing this torture.
I do feel that there might be a psychological component as well. This could explain Jamie's lack of response. On the other side of the coin, my father LOVED ocean fishing, and one of his buddies would always get seasick. One time, he got seriously seasick before the boat had even left the wharf.
I love that after quenching the gun barrel, Jamie actually flushed the toilet.
😂
Dear Discovery, thank you. From everyone.
Please keep uploading these! I’m loving it!!
Glad to see they are uploading full episodes now.
They've been uploading for month's now
Yeah but why from BBC?
@@jeromefitzroy the American cut is several minutes shorter. So by providing the international release, were actually getting the full show.
@@jeromefitzroyless is cut from international release, America has more commercials therefore shorter run time for the same thing
Those 6 people that got Discovery+ just ain't paying the bills lol
I'm so glad we get to see entire episodes here!
2:24 I've had some horrendous sea sickness experiences and the look on Adam's face is so relatable. Even talking about it for too long brings it back.... oh god brb
I love rewatching these. I was always amused watching these years ago.
We Miss You Grant!! The world is not the same without you.
just finished episode 3 and I see this uploaded 1 hour ago. It's a sign to continue watching.
Thank you for uploading these
Still fondly remember watching this show when it aired, especially setting a TV up on a cardboard box in a hurry to catch it after a move. Just made it during the intro.
As someone who's done farm work and back road driving, leaving the tailgate down while driving made my head hurt. Seen way too many fall off
Those sum bitches will pop off 😂. Had it happen myself camping
Only spend a couple weeks or so on a ship (Carrier, Marine Corps) but I never got sick, though the ship rocked slowly and not unpredictable as a smaller ship might do. I did suffer from the effects after getting back on shore though: Spent 2 days with my equilibrium trying to, in the words of the book Kon Tiki, was occasionally "reeling about......to put a foot to counter a sea that did not come....."
I've had it too , i call it land sickness . I had been on my small yacht for something like 5 days straight , due to bad weather . The anchorage wasn't that bad , but was a bit rolly , and totally off grid . But there comes a time when food , or more often water cuts things short , and this is what happened here . We docked in a marina , and i felt the need to visit the toilet . Sat on the pan , i could swear the floor was moving . No ill effects just that feeling , soon passed , but just really weird .
i vaguely remember seeing an anti seasick chair that was basically a chair suspended in a hanging ring that was meant to counterbalance the sea movement
I have to wonder, does it only work if you close your eyes, or does the entire room moving around you somehow not bother you once your head stop moving?
forget that they make boats with gyroscopes in them so the waves can't tilt it
@@bmxscape cruise ships would genuinely go out of business if everyone had to get their sea legs and deal with nausea. Modern ship gyros are insane
Watching this episode again after seeing the Kentucky ranch 50bmg explosion puts it in a different perspective
You guys keep uploading all your content and your TH-cam will be as big as Gordon Ramsays
I love it because it's some random person who now owns the copyright. Discovery has nothing to do with this, lol
Subscribed for these episodes ❤
This fascinating! I can't believe I've never seen this episode! I studied neuroscience and I worked on a number of studies on proprioception (how your brain knows where your parts are even in the dark or blind). I remember that one idea someone had was that people with stronger reliance on/experience of proprioception was related to shrugging off motion sickness. It wasn't demonstrated but I we didn't find reason to exclude it as possible either.
I was in the US Navy; I was Always seasick the first 2-3 days, then...nope, even during a Typhoon....but rarely I'd have mild nausea when laying down to sleep. But there where people who just never got seasick...and others that had to stay drugged for 4-6 months straight.
So excited to see full episodes!! I used to watch this show all the time growing up. Are the episodes marked “private” going to be made public eventually?
Submerging the barrel into water then sooting always makes some good flowering
engines can have double digit percentage differences in performance and efficiency even fresh from the factory
As someone that always got car sick growing up and later got seasick when I was in the navy. The thing that worked for me more than anything was cranking up the A/C and blasting cold air on to me. The funny thing about getting car sick when I was a kid is, I always got car sick when I was riding with my mom, any of my aunts or my grandmother. When I was riding with my dad, stepdad, grandfather or any male for the most part, I never got sick.
Another iconic episode.
This show was my whole childhood. When we lost the channel this aired on, a part of me was lost too.
They keep referring to gun as a rifle!
My staff sergeant would have given me jankers for that.
Good. Sound is legit this time. Good job.
This was my favorite episode growing up- I loved the nasa chair and was fascinated by what would fix sea-sickness😅🎉
I can't believe how fast this channel's sub count is growing. It was 59k less than a week ago now it's already over 80k. It might exceed 100k by the end of April!
The pickup one is so funny 'I just bought a truck with half the fuel efficiency of a small car. I'm gonna leave my back down to save my fuel economy'
14:20 grant with a moustache is wild
I’m an Alaskan. Trust me, the captain never gets seasick. If nausea hits you, ask if you can get behind the wheel. BTW, works with small planes and carsickness as well.
watching tory plant the muzzle into the dirt was so painful
got to love the ending
I don't recall if they redid this or not, but I have seen the results of using smokeless powder in a reproduction cap and ball revolver. A big chunk of the cylinder was gone and the top strap standing straight up. No banana barrel, and I don't know what happened to the shooter, but it could not have been good. I think the best chance would be an over charge of smokeless powder in a reproduction muzzle loading shotgun.
Variation on the steel spike: use a tap and die method by creating a tight thread on the inside of the shotgun barrel, and the same time the same spacing thread on the outside of the spike. Make sure that it can be inserted up to 75% of the way into the barrel. I guarantee you, the breach will give away first before that does.
All the gun myths are my favorite
Been sea sick several times but only out of a Monterey Ca on fishing boats. No place else even on a fishing boat off Corpus Christi Tx, or aboard Naval ships or Cruise Boats. Not fun and never volunteer for this insanity
It's nice to see that the only thing you could say "they couldn't do this now without being controversial" is the myth where they drove two cars until their tanks were empty.
The reason they couldn't get the guns to blow up is because they had the obstructions at the end of the barrel where the pressures from the gas is lowest. If you put a squib near the chamber, you will get the gun to blow up.
Was about to sleep, but one more episode, since this is a new upload prior this comment, couldn't hurt. 😂
same here...
does anyone know if/when they revisited the whole gun banana peel thing? it's so interesting to watch how it warps!
Bro I would pay to take a whiff or Kari’s work shoes
Without condemning nor condoning, I understand
Oh the nostalgia!
Another great one! Lets go!
Dramamine has a caffine like molecule added to it so you can function with it.
17:20 the innuendo and word choice is pretty wild here after the story is told 😅
Upload the full “Bottle Break” episode!
Tori: "biggest mold I did was a complete silicone cast of an actress's legs for a mermaid suit and you have to put stuff everywhere but some places you're a bit more careful"
Narrator: "with Tori beating around the bush let's take a look at Cary's handiwork"
That animated bit reminded me of ranger gord from the red green show 😅
19 years later, Discovery decides to upload these? I'm glad, but... I wonder what changed
I don’t know how well it would work for motion sickness, but one time I tried eating dandelion greens when I was feeling nauseous. They’re bitter but seemed to help in the same way as ginger, I was surprised!
Thank you mythbusters
I used to belong to a shooting club where a guy had a cartoon like catastrophic failure on his shotgun. He accidentally put in a 20 gague shell into the 12 gague barrel. When he pulled the trigger, it slid the shell forward and made it look unloaded. He assumed he forgot to load, and put the 12 gague shell behind it. After several months of therapy, he recovered. The gun is hanging on the wall, and the whole center is blown out into 4 pieces like a cartoon.
I used to get motion sick whenever we'd drive somewhere when i was a kid. Oddly enough, as an adult, I haven't had any issues. Even being on cruise ships in rough or relatively calm waters doesn't bother me, lol.
most people have it and grow out of it pretty quickly. Also things like VR headsets almost sort of trains you to not get motion sickness. by being just enough that you notice but not enough to make you sick. over time it gets to a point where it is completely unnoticeable
A good buzz of alcohol works
against sea sickness!!💯Too!!
Quack, damn you. That episode was hilarious.
The dumbest cure for seasickness I've had work is putting your dominant hand against your bare belly.
Not so useful if you have to do anything, but if it's just a car ride or the result of a bender, might be something to save your lunch.
Water down the barrel of a rifle because water won’t compress, the shot in a shotgun allows for the shot to somewhat force the water through it.
whats the name of the music at 11:45?!
Please upload myth evolution 2. Its a fan favourite. 😊.

They revisit the finger in the barrel using a Damascus (laminated) barrel which the cartoons were modeled after.
IMO , It is best to stay away from Dramamine , it can cause psychoses - seen a girl have a psychotic episode on a research vessel, they had to lock her in her cabin and return to dock from Dramamine.
I don't really know about getting sea-sickness as I don't get it, -spent some time on small boats , a few years getting tossed around inside tanks and armored vehicles, and more than a year on big ships. And I saw sailors who had years on ships getting sick during typhoons, Me? nope nothing.
They are wrong about the tail-gate thing . There is increased drag at higher speeds( above the speed limit), it ain't much , I venture .1-.2 's of a mile per gallon, but it is there. And you can feel the the increased drag at high speeds (80+) , if you try both ways.
Note: this is for a 2 -door truck with a regular bed, not one of those 4-door trucks (which ain't trucks IMO), that they used in this test
I have done this experiment many times over years and 1000's of miles, both with a 2D Ford Ranger V-6 with a standard cargo bed and a 2 D Chevy Silverado V-8 with a standard cargo bed. The Ranger got "about" +.2 MPG tailgate down, the Chevy "about" +.1MPG tailgate down . As I said it ain't much , but it is there. and it add's up over time. Plus as I said, if you really "haul ass" you can feel the drag of the tail-gate if it is up. Also at high-speed , with tail gate down, you have slightly increased control. IMO
-------------
Also , they did this same experiment another time and Adam was wearing a crash helmet and driving a 2 door truck at 55 MPH* and even their experiment showed slightly better MPG with the tail-down ( a few +100th's of a mile per gallon). Yet they talked it off as being "insignificant".
Obviously they don't know what "insignificant" means as to their own "myth" test. Because it confirmed the myth, yet they called the myth "busted".
IMO, just Cali liberals doing their thing, and not happy that their experiment confirmed a "myth" - actually a "red-neck myth" that they simply can't accept . LOL
So I consider this test on this episode to be "Disingenuous" and the result of this (4-door truck test ) to be in conflict with the results of their other test. But that was with a different vehicle ( a real 2D truck not a "truck wannbe SUV" w/4 doors and a 4' bed).
* I remember that episode in particular because Adam looked "dam" silly driving a truck at 55MPH on the highway and wearing a crash helmet.
49:18 "Do not try this, unless you are cartoon."
In the age of "Anyone can be whatever they feel that day." That is one dangerous sentence lol :D
Hopefully no furries will try this.
You spin me right round baby right _RETCH!_
Interesting fact - Grant is exactly one week older than Tory
At least we can all comment and discuss with each other. If only they had this technology 20 years ago
So my eyes disagrees with my inner ear and my brain tells my stomach to purge its contents. Makes sense.
“Quack damn you!”
I don't get sea sick but after a week long dive or fishing trip I get land sick for a few days.
Meanwhile kentucky ballistics has been exploding their rifles ever since his blew up in his face and almost killed him
Funny to see the two identical “brand new” F150s in this old episode. 90% of those trucks now are either crushed, in a junk yard waiting to be crushed, or really need to be crushed because they’re beyond junk.
If you want to see the barrel mushroom, put just the end in water. Demolition ranch has a video on it
46:42 there does come a little bump on the barrel
one of my friends would puke almost every time he was in a car. he eventually got over motion sickness. i think he just got over it with time cause he drives now and doesn't vomtron everywhere lol
It’s a cartoon so it’s never going to work that’s why we don’t have Saturday cartoons anymore
7:50 made the callosal titan?
Thank God I don't get sea sick. I feel for those that do. My heart goes out to those who do.
What is a good thing about not having great vision is the fact that your brain is already accustomed to the fact that things are not always where you see it is being and that the entirety of your personal visual existence is in flux 100% of the time, always and forever. Therefore, you don’t get sea or motion sickness.
41:55 “I don’t feel very competent to operate heavy machinery or be in a life threatening situation” ahh yes common occurrences on a boat
I hate when pirates rob my ferry full of forklifts 🤣usually I’d fight back but I’m too drowsy from my sea sickness medicine 🥺🤣
They didn’t do a hot round, or a round that has too much energy for the gun to withstand.
I will say from personal experience using candies/sodas that have real ginger in them has been helpful when I was feeling nauseous in the past, so I will give it to that one for sure. As for the others, I think that they may work for some, and not for others, and prob a larger sample size would have been helpful.
RIP Grant ❤️
I'd like to do a remake of the show and have them produce it
8:32 Little Joke: Nobody would come to the idea which brand those two cars could be :D because it was blured out.
Probably a Chevy
I always love when shows blur the emblems especially when they do it on such an obvious vehicle like a F-150 lol.
@@southeastcoastalphotography They have to less the company decides they didn't like the portrayal of the vehicle and sues them.
26:39 think that's the first time I've heard them swear on TV
I forgot how fricking long and drawn out these episodes are. I don't miss having TV/cable.
