- Adam and Jamie use a 747 to simulate tornado-force winds to test the Tornado Chasers' armoured vehicles and to design a personal tornado-proof suit.
Using science as a tool, Hollywood special effects experts attempt to debunk rumours, urban legends and popular myths that have captivated the minds of many individuals.

40:50 Jamie describing something in noises instead of his usual words shows how much adrenalin must've been in his veins at that moment
One adrenaline.
Only one.
And that's because he got spanked by that thing and he liked it.
I doubt it can be quantified, but I'm sure MythBusters is responsible for motivating a whole generation of kids, myself included, to go into science and tech.
Those days of watching the show in AP Physics were some of the best when I was in high school. Definitely had a part in me going for microbiology and later following it up with chemistry.
Definitely made a generation of enthusiasts, the show has also saved life's
@@DavidRichardson153 I guess I'm kinda inverse. Started with chemistry and moved into biology. But am moving towards structural biology, computational biology and such.
Thanks to the habit of experimenting with stuff, my curiousity is undying. All of that thanks to the Discovery Science channel, and of course, MythBusters!
And design
But did the kids stay motivated when they discovered that working in IRL science is nothing like Mythbusters?
Jamie was hyped. I noticed that he loved attempting dangerous stuff in this show, like riding that motorcycle across the lake. He's an absolute badass at heart.
THere was a comment on a previous episode I think made perfect sense, and paraphrasing,
Being a child, Adam was the enthusiastic mad scientist type and Jamie was the moderating straight man.
Being an adult is realizing Adam was the enthusiastic but moderating presence, and Jamie was the real mad scientist and inventor with a quiet disposition.
@@jocax188723 Jamie is just glad that its soon be all over.
In the episode where they were in South Africa testing shark myth, Jamie was excited to be in the cage with the sharks.
One of the first things that happened was a shark attack and broke the steel bars in the cage, coming quite a bit inside the cage.
Jamie afterwards laughed about how the shark got inside the cage.
And was also excited about getting inside the cage and be with the sharks again.
You know… the typical response of being inside a cage that was supposed to keep the sharks out, that the shark just broke its way into.
Look up his resume, it's wild
So this is one of those crossover episodes Discovery made them do, still looked fun AF. The stormchasers looked uncomfortable with the car testing, while Adam and Jamie were positively sparkling with glee 🤣
The window breaking during the presentation of the tornado guys was beyond scary
he forgot to pull up the outer lexan window, IIRC
Growing up watching this, I always liked Adam and his energy about him being over the top and just being an extrovert and Jamie was always the dad energy of "be safe and do it safely". But as I'm rewatching these episodes, Jamie not only does exude that dad energy, he's also a badass to the definition of the word. Not to mention an adrenaline junkie. (Its the mustache that gives him +10 stat boost in everything)
32:50 They dedicated this episode to Sanjay after he passed away following filming. Long time fans know Sanjay from even the early episodes. RIP
🥺😭😭
I know 'muricans don't like Metric, but 400 kilometres per hour just sounds more impressive than 250 miles per hour.
yeah its crazy, thats like almost a max speed of Bugatti veyron... insane
I'm a metric user, but I think 400kph sounds impresive because, well, we are used to the reference number. For example. 120-150kph is your typical motorway/highway speed, while 320+kph is F1/MotoGP top speed.
SInce I rarely used miles, for me 100mph is a meaningless number. 250mph, what's that? I only recognised how meaningful it is after I mentally converted them to kph. For those who used to it though, it's more impressive. 'Oh yeah, Indycar average speed is 230+mph.'
Woah that's actually nuts!
Try 138800000000 inches per year.
It's kind of arbitrary, you know?
"There he goes, one of god's own prototypes" not religious and I still love that line.
It's a quote from Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
24:04 and further: Who arranged the scary Jamie-with-Gun cutout so it would aim at the scary huge Babyhead??? I'm loving it
Everyone loves the Savage but I gotta say I got a lot of love for the Hyneman
35:43 Adams wearing a batsuit.
That storm-chaser vehicle-thing looks like the Dalek equivalent of a car 😂
Jamie is a cool dude
Cool dad
observations:tornado sheild blew away, but human laying flat on ground did not blow away.
conclusion: lay flat
"Its not THAT the wind is blowin'; Its WHAT the wind is blowin'."
The shield is meant to protect you from debris, not the wind itself.
@@dgthe3 helmet!
Jamie still had the board with the ground spike that he held on to. Without that, he would've slid into the next county...
@@mytube001 soooo, this would work without the spikes, as long as youre a man, wear a helmet and are sexually aroused by high winds.
This episode has to be the reason Adam has hearing aids 😅 There's a serious lack of ear protection near that jet :x
Did a Check and it was a Congenital Birth Defect, he has hearing Loss in Low, Mid and High Frequencies so he uses Hearing Aids
@@bigfan10-gaming79 ah. Might explain why he was so lose on the hearing protection if his hearing was already pretty sub optimal. Might not have noticed how loud things where.
Cool, I like it when I find an episode I never saw on TV, should be good! Even though chasing storms is whackadoodle
Jamie: here, have the shield, you can use it now
Stormchasers: We won´t
J: But it works...
SC: YES BUT WE ARE NOT INSANE!!!!
43:47 Hunter S. Thompson reference - "There he goes, one of god's own prototypes..." RIP you delightfully mad person
‘Exposing the creamy center that is Jaime Hyneman’
"Can we break them?" - Jaime "Drago" Hyneman
This show was pure gold !
Amazing episode but I cannot belive that they let Jamie do the last part with that suit.. Why they didn't use buster to test that out is beyond me.. He was risking his own life trying that out and it was scary to watch. I cannot belive that they where allowed to do it this way. No insurance can help you if you're dead..
One of the cooler episodes
Remember watching this years ago and thinking the stormchasers were mad to let this happen 😂
I like cheese.
Yeah you do!🎉
Mee too
🧀🧀I LOVE CHEESE🧀🧀
Good for u man, good for u
Sometimes I dream… about cheese
should've put tori in the wind test just cause it would've been hilarious.
First of all, another amaing episode. Secondly, how come Tori Grant and Kari aren't in this episode? Is this around the time that they left the series due to finacial reasons? Third and finally, could you please upload the episode that sees them test Hollywood car crash scenes.
This was a crossover episode Discovery ordered to give the show Storm Chasers a ratings bump, so they didn't allocate a Build Team a myth for this episode since this was basically an ad.
@@lumoneko299 Interesting.
I'm betting this was what made reed get those Hydraulic spikes that we see on the dominator
But Adam was walking not lying on the ground 🤷🏼♂️
Indeed. Apples to oranges.
Yes, and that shows, if nothing else, to lie down. A good demonstration.
I loved the Storm Chasers, sadly they vanished from youtube
29:50 Needs two handles in the front so you can hold onto it and sort of keep it in place.
could be more of a liability, you could potentially damage your wrists, hands or arms when taking a hit from debris. though that could be preferable to taking a rock head on...
If it had handles, they should be made so that they could slip out of your hand in case the shield pulls away.
For a mk2 version, I'd consider having an X-frame as the base rather than a horizontal bar. Spread out that interfacing load between the top & bottom. And I'd also go with thinner rigid foam, maybe 3/4 thickness. But then add a softer foam layer, the same thickness as the thinner hard foam -so its 50% thicker overall. Not sure what could be done to 'firm up' the overall structure so that it is still quick to deploy but less liable to get whipped about by the wind.
Damage is also caused by flying debris, a real test would include debris like building materials, trees, and even other vehicles, then we will see how well they withstand those windspeeds. Sean is no longer chasing, but Reed is, and he does have a much newer Dominator as well. I don't know if either of them have ever gone into an F5 with those vehicles.
"It delaminated and exposed the creamy center that is Jamie" oh how poorly this has aged 😂😂
21:48 I'm watching this for the first time and omg... it sounds like that could end up being someone's coffin once it got compressed too far into the ground. 😟
Edit: Impressive! Still unconvinced that it'll survive a flying cow or stronger winds, but if all you're facing are 180 mph winds and various smallish chunks of ice, you're set!
I'd be curious to see this done again using a 777-300ER with the GE-90 115B engines, making 115,000 pounds of thrust, compared to the old JT9D Pratt & Whitneys on this old 747-200 (which only made 46,000 pounds of thrust per motor).
The wind speeds would no doubt be the same, I'm guessing the newer engines wouldn't have to work as hard though to achieve the thrust required to get the wind speeds needed. But it'd still be cool to see a GE90 115B on full pelt.
Well they tested the vehicles with the wind coming from the front - but wasn't the problem of a tornado, that the winds angle of attack changes rapidly?
I remember when they tried to make that storm chasers stuff a big show after that thing with the window happened, we got to see the dude's window explode in his face at least 3 times each commercial break for like a year 🤣
What if the wind came from the side?
Then Jamie Hyneman probably would turn into Jamie Wasaman
The pins swivel on the board. He can realign. The first version had a tail to help it turn, but it didn't work as they took it off the reworked version.
@@Yvolve To work, the stabilizer would have needed to be mounted rigid to the frame, but that'd make the whole thing to complicated to assemble quickly. Removing it meant one less thing to spank Jamie.
Pivoting around with your feet feels doable, so long as you can sense how the wind is shifting -which might be difficult given that the whole shelter is shaking violently & you're blind to the world.
@@Asgeir_W Jamie Byeneman.
I had a problem in my aerodynamics course similar to the human protector dome, I wonder if the solution we had for a 2D shape that we did the analysis for would work in dome form.
The Tornado protection meat bag was okay with protecting you from a head on with a wooden can shaped object, But what about a wooden nail like spike/splinter that could fit between the aluminium protection panels?
Anyone else thinks Jamie's nap time looks an awful lot like Adam was interrupted from Nap time to film?
Hi Jamie
I would have attached a second floor. and attached to the top of the tent. It would add security?
He lost the safetyline @37:20, thats can be bad.
11:50 I mean it IS bomb-proof, but that's just bedliner
I hope they use two jets with their engines pointed at eachother 🙏😅*thoughts at start
i wonder if anyone actually ever tried this in real weather
If the wind does get under that thing it's turning into a kite. Also they edited down the setup time, not sure how long you have between deciding you need that thing and setting it up.
00:13 oh no
red bull should sponsor.....
Cool but are these cars mariage proof ?
😂
I doubt it can withstand an F5 ex wife.
btw reed timmer was divorced by his wife
@@alts-553 btw:didn't know them,btw not insinuating to a specific person neither, btw good to know btw have a good one
This wind speed will blow down ( an american house built of plywood) to the ground. Correct
Buy a T-64 from any ex-soviet nation and modify it instead it would look cool and would certainly be a stable design
And don't forget it's a TV show.
how would an f1 car do against those winds?
Do you think they shot the 747 all at once or at different occasions?
different
All at once. Everybody wearing the exact same thing is a dead giveaway, but It’s what would make the most sense from a production standpoint, since there’s a lot of logistics involved.
3:38 soundeffect stolen from RTCW(noise a Supersoldier mades when it dies)
let's stop here real quick - they don't just tell myths?!
It's funny that if this episode were to be made today, it's the Boeing jet that would have parts falling off
Le funny airplane = boeing = sucks joke, updootz to the left kind redditors
My favourite thing about this show is the fun. I don't care if calling it a science show probably means we're already living in an idiocracy.
as much as i like them i wouldnt hide under that thing from a tornado, looks like my feet would get cut from glas flying around xD
Well.. where is the difference between windspeed of 160mph and driving a car at 160mph? Why arent all cars go flying then? (Except downpressing force of sportscars..)
160 miles is pretty fast they used the car which is not very aerodynamic and never goes that fast since it’s not powerful enough apart of that blowing a car off isn’t the same as riding a car bc when car wheels lose the traction the speed goes down
@@LollipopUnicorny Hm, I was going 130 miles with a Golf 2 20 yrs ago, not really an aerodynamic car in my eyes 😁 and there are others, light and less aerodynamic cars that could go 160 miles - and I have actually never heard of one going up in the air. Nor would I know that cars in that speed would lose traction and therefor would go slower. Losing traction would be quite difficult to handle as well 😁 I get the point though and its obvious, that it mainly has to do with aerodynamics and downforce as the density of air is the same, no matter if youre driving or get wind blowing at you
There are some flying cars, Nascar eg.. So probably yes, if air gets under the car at certain speed, it will lift..
@@dailybusiness8162 Not sure if it’s possible to flip a car only because of fast speed I mean in order to flip a car you either need a constant wind or instant change of aerodynamic characteristics of the car’s
Turbulence & direction.
Wind at that speed will have all sorts of ripples and swirls and gusts that are overall much more chaotic. With a car driving at those speeds, the air is usually going to be pretty smooth & predictable. Plus, a moving car will only encounter fast moving air from the front. A stationary car can experience wind from any direction.
I'm sorry but that "portable storm shield" is the dumbest thing that mythbusters have ever made. There are so many vulnerable spots in that thing there is no way it would stop a sharp object from piercing it.
What would you prefer in a storm? The device or nothing?
Watch out, its a Boeing!
What's ALOOO NIM UM?
Aluminium (Aluminum in North American English) is a chemical element; it has symbol Al and atomic number 13. Aluminium has a density lower than that of other common metals, about one-third that of steel. It has a great affinity towards oxygen, forming a protective layer of oxide on the surface when exposed to air. Aluminium visually resembles silver, both in its color and in its great ability to reflect light. It is soft, nonmagnetic, and ductile. It has one stable isotope, 27Al, which is highly abundant, making aluminium the twelfth-most common element in the universe. The radioactivity of 26Al, a more unstable isotope, leads to it being used in radiometric dating.
A B747-200? in 2024? wow.
This was shot almost 15 years ago.
Yeah I googled the registration of the plane used for this. It was stored in 2010 and scrapped in 2015. The JT9D engines were quite old by that point
33:05 amogus
"Whole hour" -49minutes
Well when it was air on TV that runtime includes ads
@@ultramanJR true dat
I watched it at 1.25x, so it actually just took me ~39 minutes.
@@kantahanwithkahel ikr? With yt premium and without watching tv it is kinda hard to remember all that advertisement bs
Like this comment for no reason other than Mythbusters being a great show
