I'm in high school again, at my father's for the weekend and watching all of the Mythbusters episodes that he recorded, and I have no pressing concerns.
It is a gift to humanity that this show has been uploaded to TH-cam. Not only does it make the show accessible, but it preserves this amazing show for years to come.
40:17 Imagine if any vacationers heard that in the middle of the forest. "Ah! This is the life! Peace and quiet for miles!" Elsewhere... "FIRE IN THE HOLE!"
It seems like the audio in general is borked, because the show in general is on mono, but the narrator is only on one. I think it’s just not fixable without the raw audio, and all they have are broken audio versions.
@@cyber4053 Heads up buddy, the show is not generally played back in mono audio. If you pull the audio into any free audio visualizer in the world, you'll see that the two channels have different audio running through them nearly all the time. Whether or not the audio is similar doesn't matter, any slight difference in audio from L to R channel means the audio is not mono. "all they have are broken audio versions" " the show in general is on mono, but the narrator is only on one." Please learn some basic audio engineering before talking out your ass and misinforming other less informed people. You try to provide the most complicated possibilities yet fail to even think "hey, maybe they just had the right channel of audio turned off for the narrator's track when they mass exported all the episodes their computers could handle." Forgetting to unmute a track is literally the most common reason why audio is messed up in any production. Second to the mic guy on set forgetting to jack his mic into the camera when they were recording so it becomes an absolute nightmare to get VO's done.
So greatful you guys uploaded free episodes for us to watch. Im praying you guys upload more! I have wanted to rewatch episodes for so long, we need more please!
I read about how the military has instructions for tree-felling using C4, so I tried it a while back using 2 pounds of tannerite on a pine tree. It did absolutely nothing to it. After a bit of studying, I learned about the property of "brisance", or the crushing-power of an explosion. C4 is so useful because it has extremely high brisance, whereas ammonium nitrate has negligible brisance. It can't crush wood fibers, instead all it can do is push really hard really fast. I then recalled learning that on Mythbusters when I was a kid 😂
I couldn't help but wonder what results they might have had using det cord in a continuous slot instead of those bags of explosives. Love this show. Miss it too!
Grow up little boy and stop spewing immature disgusting filth like the C, S, or F-words in public! How pathetically unprofessional, disrespectful, uneducated, immoral, and Godless, thus anti-American.
That's how i've been using the internet for the last 15 years, to get away from all the adverts, but then there were the pop ups, then the video adverts and now the content makers are making their own advertisements.. pretty ironic, coming full circle. But yeah, at least we can block some, for now.
Jaime and Adam (and obviously the rest of the Mythbusters crew) are fantastic and I am so grateful for the years of education and entertainment. I grew up watching Mythbusters and seeing these grand experiments and trials on the TV and have fond memories. Thank you again Mythbusters.
@@rocketamadeus3730 I’ve seen just about every early episode of Mythbusters and peripherally I think o was aware Grant wasn’t the only person involved with the production of Mythbusters to have passed but I can’t for the life of me bring to mind anyone named Jessi?...
Catch the bubbles in your clothes. Thats actually taught in the Navy (specifically, you splash air into your uniform clothes to use for flotation.) They also have procedures for drowning in tonic, provided the tonic is mixed with gin.
Yeah, i was kinda surprised at how amazed Adam was at Jamie's small scale model, because it just took me back to me as a kid in the bath, taking a wash cloth and push it under water while keeping the opening facing down, so that it caught all the air before going down. It would slowly release bubbles just like that cushion did, and if you squeezed it, it would release a lot of bubbles at once. I always liked doing that, because it was kinda amusing to feel the wash cloth acting like an underwater balloon, it was kinda surreal to see fabric turn into floatation devices, and the bubbles were nice as well.
I used to work at a wastewater treatment plant and one of the first things we were taught was not to fall into the aerator tank because you won't be able to get out because of the bubbles. They even demonstrated with a mannequin tied with a rope so they didn't lose it. 😅
Sounds like the myth could have started from a scenario like this, where someone thought it was bubbles and not the downdraft at the edges that was the problem.
The force of an explosive drops off by the inverse square law so if you moved the charge closer to the arrowhead it would make a big difference. Also a binary explosive might have the same force as a stick of dynamite but it doesn't have the impulse which is what cuts. Mythbusters made this mistake a few times, trading dynamite for black powder in the cement truck for instance, their explosives guy was not great.
Thank you! Finally someone said it. I don't know why they didn't come to the same conclusions, you'd think the "experts" would know that it's not the same explosion that you get from dynamite.
They typically used the police bomb squad and they're really not experts on this stuff. They're good at disposing of explosives because that's their job. They really should have contacted explosives experts within the mining industry, people who actually have to account for the stuff you mentioned on a daily basis.
@@volundrfrey896 Yeah, Frank seems more like a hobbyist than a real expert. But yeah, i thought i remember hearing that they specifically used TNT or dynamite in mining, specifically _because_ it causes the rocks to crack instead of just blowing a piece out of it, like they did with the ANFO. To me it felt like they were doing the exact opposite of what they should've done. They already showed on the smaller scale that the ANFO obliterated the tree more easily, they actually needed the rigidity of the tree to help it crack by pushing outwards, instead of ripping it open. Still not sure if it was actually possible, but this definitely didn't seem like the right way.
I was thinking of some drill needle, or spearpoint with curved grooves to expel the wood that it cut out somehow, while the explosives get pushed forwards into the tree by the impact. But yeah, i wasn't paying attention to the introduction, because i thought they just wanted to cut it in half horizontally, not vertically.
@phookadude 1. It's unclear that you understand what "impulse" means. It's force integrated over time. So half the force and double time gives the same impulse (F . t = ½F . 2t). I'd assume the binary explosive had a slower detonation velocity than dynamite (because of its lack of regulation in the USA), but _might_ be rated as comparable quantities of TNT. 2. Generating a shock wave much faster than the speed of sound in wood will shatter (even pulverise) the wood. The speed of sound along the grain (ie up and down) of the tree is 3300 - 5000m/s, but across the grain (the width or diameter) of the tree is about ⅓-⅕ that, so closer to 1000m/s (I can't find a better number). Much above that 1000m/s-ish the tree will shatter outwards horizontally. Once enough of the tree has shattered horizontally the blast will mainly travel outwards in air, not up and down the tree. 3. 'Faster' explosive eg. dynamite will tend to shatter the tree horizontally (which is "a bad thing") more than ANFO. ANFO detonation velocity is still much faster than the speed of sound across the grain of a tree, so it's still shattering rather than cracking or tearing. 4. You can demonstrate that speed isn't the important part of splitting a log with a steel wedge and a car jack. You might deliver the same impulse as a stick of dynamite (or even less) over many minutes using the jack, however that'll split the log without shattering the wood. 5. They detonated 6 sticks of explosives pressed against the tree at 16:49 I assume they needed to include firing the arrow to bust the myth completely for some viewers. However, firing an arrow was busted quickly. Best Wishes. ☮
Hey tip for everyone here. If you go in your phone settings and switch on Mono audio it fixes the narrator problem, and i don't even notice the lack of sterio saound.
Honestly 1) i hate that the guy is in my left ear. 2) i dont think they took into account a live tree over a dead tree. Their first tests were of aged and cured wood. The wood with the moisture still in a live tree might make it more possible to split it.
This tree "myth" was just a horrible excuse to blow something up. But I would think if you topped the tree and drilled a hole in the top for the boom it would give a better cartoon cigar type split.
Horrible excuses to blow things up and bending over backwards to satisfy every single "AcKcHuAlLy" commenter was what undid the show. Running out of myths didn't help, either.
I feel like the myth probably wasn't even about splitting the tree in half vertically, but just "chopping it down", and either their research or the myth source went astray somewhere. In either case, I can't help but feel it'd depend a lot on what type of tree they used, and whether it was full grown or just a growing tree.
*Magician uses slight of hand movement* *Tree splits* But yeah, i kinda get the idea, maybe he gutted the tree from the other side, keeping it barely standing and then finishing it off before a crowd with seemingly a single arrow and a blast.
Exactly, i don't know why they didn't at least try it. Although they wanted a vertical cut, but yeah, you can just use more cord, it should've been worth a try i thought. Besides, they already blew up a tree with det cord in another episode, so they should know its potential, but i guess that one came later.
This reminds me of the Vamp boss fight in Metal Gear Solid 2 where Vamp explains that the pool of water in the center of the room is hyper oxygenated and thus has no buoyancy meaning if you fall in you'll sink to the bottom like a stone and drown. Of course, Vamp is able to swim in the water because of exclusive rule breaking boss bullshit, AKA Nanomachines.
Hah, yeah, it looked pretty random, like a mix between a more "pro" vertical stroke with his arms but basic horizontal style with the legs, they don't seem quite compatible with each other.
I think it would be easier to swim through the bobblewater if the entirety of the pool had bubbles coming underneath. Because you wouldn't have the density differential.
Don't turn and look... Maybe she looks like a possessed sleepwalker, staring you dead in the eyes without any emotion while making bad puns, deadpun delivery.
That's what i kept wondering as well, i saw in a different episode that they blasted a tiny tree with det cord, i think they also tried to blow up a bicycle with it. So i was kinda assuming that they were going to go up and down the cut with some det cord, kept in place with some nails and hooks. It's like the perfect explosive for a long and narrow explosion, i was quite baffled that they didn't even mention it or considered it. I guess the det cord episode came later, after they had their det cord epiphany.
Would have been cool if they tried a shape charge for the tree. Like instead of a cone shape charge make it a wedge shape and that should easily then direct the charge like an axe through the tree. That would have been cool as hell!
Are these like remasters or something. Because the episodes that aired on TV the Announcer wasn't stuck in the left ear. Its almost like some intern got ahold of the RAW files and was told to make them into youtube videos but didn't know how to deal with mono audio in a stereo audio project...
Probably an editing mistake with Robert’s Lee’s audio track being recorded in mono and the episode itself being in stereo (Europe and NA have different narrators so they probably record separately). I’ve had similar issues with mono tracks on my own video editing
@@iBlewupthemoon98 Really? In every video editor I have used a mono clip added to a stereo clip makes the mono play from both channels automatically. I would need to specifically change the settings to force it into only one channel.
Should have just used Det-cord. Would have been enough to just split the tree. Especially if they cut a groove down the truck all the way and laid the cord in the groove.
Any reason nearly all of the other episodes are stopped in the US? I was really enjoying watching these. I thought this was like THE channel? Is this just a fan thing?
Maybe was a dead tree, or the dad had already placed a hidden stick inside the tree that then ignited when he shot the first. Tree species also makes a difference!
Was told that someone in the village was asked to remove a tree stump and he blew it up with dinamite by drilling a hole in the stump and loading it with explosives and was told that it blew it up and there was nothing bigger than a matchstick left after the explosion
I've seen someone do that before with a tree with a firecracker and it was because the tree had a crack within the inside it was an older tree taking consideration all the variables of the age of the tree and what it looks like from the outside even if it looks like it's solid on the outside there could be an inner lying crack
I live in Maine and well were the pine tree state and if ppl were doing that and its a huge if nobody would be doing it with trees that thick cuz ud be using it for firewood. And I haven't seen it further so I'm commenting before results. But being in the pine tree state my whole life going on 45yrs I've never heard of anyone doing that. Were 85% woods here also

You can sort of mitigate it by using surround sound.
Because some people are deaf in their right ear. Christ, try to have SOME compassion.

Probably an editing mistake with Robert’s Lee’s audio track being recorded in mono and the episode itself being in stereo (Europe and NA have different narrators so they probably record separately). I’ve had similar issues with mono tracks on my own video editing
@@iBlewupthemoon98 Really? In every video editor I have used a mono clip added to a stereo clip makes the mono play from both channels automatically. I would need to specifically change the settings to force it into only one channel.
If you had a pile of dry trunks and put it on the ends of the pile it would probably work. U can't split wet alive trees lol
We’d see this test in Godzilla minus one lmao.
Should have just used Det-cord. Would have been enough to just split the tree. Especially if they cut a groove down the truck all the way and laid the cord in the groove.
Learned that from the US army. It's called an Abatis Charge
No trees where harmed in the making of this myth . . .
Any reason nearly all of the other episodes are stopped in the US? I was really enjoying watching these. I thought this was like THE channel? Is this just a fan thing?
Maybe was a dead tree, or the dad had already placed a hidden stick inside the tree that then ignited when he shot the first. Tree species also makes a difference!
more boom is always more better.
Like if Wubby7 Brought you here.Bubble Makers gotta stick together. 10:22
are you telling me there was an actual reason they made minecraft magma blocks pull you down in water
My solution for the audio is to use a single earbud. Not great but it works
Linear sheap chrges wud have worked for the spling
They do directional blasts, it wouldn’t push the two halves of the tree apart
TH-cam doesn't give audio options. How can we hear him evenly instead of from the top speaker of our phones?
go into your phone audio settings
@@nibs7252 We don't have those options anymore. Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra. We used to until we had a system update back in Feb.
@@TiredMomma The feature is under Accessibility now, and not Audio
Of course it was someone from Iowa 😂🤦♀️
Saying this as an Iowan born and raised myself 😂
Was told that someone in the village was asked to remove a tree stump and he blew it up with dinamite by drilling a hole in the stump and loading it with explosives and was told that it blew it up and there was nothing bigger than a matchstick left after the explosion
Sink or swim you got to give it a whirl…
I've seen someone do that before with a tree with a firecracker and it was because the tree had a crack within the inside it was an older tree taking consideration all the variables of the age of the tree and what it looks like from the outside even if it looks like it's solid on the outside there could be an inner lying crack
They didn't test if the dynamite would blow on the impact of the bow shooting or the tree
I live in Maine and well were the pine tree state and if ppl were doing that and its a huge if nobody would be doing it with trees that thick cuz ud be using it for firewood. And I haven't seen it further so I'm commenting before results. But being in the pine tree state my whole life going on 45yrs I've never heard of anyone doing that. Were 85% woods here also
