It's kind of ironic that Jamie was laughing at the British for forgetting to thaw their chickens then proceeded to test a load of windshields that weren't rated for bird strikes
You know- every few years somebody gets killed by icicles in Latvia. Usually the owner of the house or the landlord gets criminal chargers for negligence that caused a murderer.
"Adam, the police officer said you need to drink more." Probably one of the best quotes that came from the show that wasn't a mainline quote. Ie. I reject your reality and substitute my own.
I haven't read about any killer icicles, but one falling from a high building's roof will injure one pretty badly. The multi-apartment and public building owners in Finland are liable to get fined and paying the medical and disability costs of the injured individual. That's why they usually pay for an external company to do snow and ice clearance, which will insulate them from the liability and in turn make the external company liable (that's why the services aren't cheap).

I gotta say, despite them testing CDs exploding and not getting any to inside a conventional disk drive, I had one break into several pieces once; It was a very old disk, Star Wars TIE Fighter, the Win98 version, and this was in the mid 2010s, so it was fairly old at that point and probably had been fatigued over the years of use, but it popped in the drive into several large chunks. It didn't do any damage, save from leave lil bits of plastic inside the drive casing and make an almighty POP sound, but it CAN happen
On the Corvette one, my Dad once accidentally left a tub of fishing maggots in the car before going away on holiday. Got back and there was just a sea of flies in there crawling on every surface. Opened the door and let them all out so it wasn't as bad as the dead pigs.
Funny pig story for you all. Many many years ago I worked on many farms including a piggery, The breeding pens were on one side of a road and the fattening pens across the road. It was all connected by a tunnel about 3 foot diameter so the piglets could be "shoo'ed" under. i was prepping the recieving pens when I heard piglets coming under the tunnel. I quickly went onto my hands and knees and barked and growled at the oncoming piglets. The first half dozen stopped, panicked and ran back. The idiots at the other end had not blocked the yard as they did not expect them to come back but cause mayhem at my end. I still laugh when I recall the chaos..
Oh fun, we're starting to upload the weird specials now. And no, that's not a sarcastic fun. Some of these early specials are the best glimpse we get of behind the scenes.
The thing is the CD one is actually true... I worked in computer maintenance for many years and had to, on several occasions, take apart a cd rom drive to remove shards of a shattered disc. It's uncommon, yes, but it does happen.
Wouldn't it be more likely now that speeds are even faster now than when this was filmed which was in terms of technology development was a very long time ago.
I would think that this would happen more frequently now than when this was filmed. In terms of technological advances a lot of years have passed, probably at least 10yrs,they are far more faster now than then ,so you'd expect it to be more likely than it used to be.
@2:23 I remember when i had a Pentium Processor and a 16x CD-ROM there was an app that span the CD at it`s highest speed then released the CD tray. The Disc flew out but not very violently thankfully.
ISP used to cut CD-ROM into square shapes and t shirt shapes, even one shaped like a 4 leafed Clover, and not surprisingly, these shattered causing horrific damage to the CD-ROMs casing on the customer even reported that a fragment came out of a slot loader and fired across his desk. DSG nearly got sued until we realised the cd roms on the IS mailings, said not for actual use, (even though they had data on them, one has to ask what was AOL thinking making a CD-ROM into a shuriken )
The biggest problem of deep-frying turkeys (or so I heard [winkwink]) is that people measure out the required amount of oil with water, and not drying the pot thoroughly enough. So you get exploding water bubbles when you heat up the oil, spewing hot oil everywhere.
It’s more when a turkey that has allot of water content or still some ice in the center hits the oil and explodes , the water on the sides of the container wouldent cause it to explode because it would have boiled off before the oil even got to full temperature
with how consistent the tic-tac's actually managed to lower the breath score by 1 point it actually makes me wonder if there really IS a way to trick the breathalizer and it's simply one of those things that is purposely esoteric knowledge.... SO like what exactly does the breathalizer use in it's testing process since the answer would lay in what chemicals (or other reactants like minerals) react in such a way as to corrupt the test making the result either inconclusive or only capable of giving either reduced numbers or a specific number itself..... I mean it's just a sensor right and generally it's more work to keep a sensor working than to mess with one. really in the end isn't it just a lack of general populaces knowledge and a perspective that machines are far more infallible than they are. Hell just look at where AI is at using these types of machines and sensors yet still produce results far removed from reality at times thus showing a clear failure in the process itself. Yeah so either we either gotta start accepting AI as meaningful as we see the breathalizer or we should look into the veracity of these sensors themselves
11:44 reason why you can't tell if Jamie is drunk, is same reason why you can't tell if i'm drunk, it's called intelligence. reason why most people act like donkeys when drunk, is cuz alcohol brings the REAL YOU to surface, average human uses a good 50% of their focusing capabilities to keep the caveman side under control, but intelligent people have no caveman side, so when they drink, they don't have to use any mental power to control themselves, cuz they are who they are. trust me, i speak from experience. alcohol has 0 effect on my mind aswell. i get physically sick, like i vomit if i drink too much, but it doesn't change state of my mind. it remains same. in fact alcohol is a good intelligence tester, those who remain same, are usually more intelligent than average cavemen.
but why should an icicle fall into ones heart? wouldnt the fall like, on the head or shoulders? and they would have to pierce the clothes in most cases
champagne bubbliness .. yet another thing made up by dummies. best way to keep ANY fizzy drink as bubbly as possible, is to: 1) keep it cooled at all times 2) pour carefully and don't make sudden movements with bottle 3) re-cork the bottle as soon as possible 4) follow rule 1, after pouring the drink, but it back in fridge or any other cold area. i haven't tested on champagne, but i have tested on soft drinks. it's basic physics, higher temperature makes particles move faster or well, high temp = fast particle movement. so the warmer the drink, the more gas escapes. if you'd freeze the liquid, then no gas would escape, it would remain fizzy til unfrozen. so the colder the drink, the less gas escapes. if you have special bottle, you can keep it fizzy by applying pressure. kind of like a cylinder like piston inside bottle, so as you pour, it moves the cylinder so there's no air and liquid is always compressed, this way gas can't escape the liquid at all.
fooling the breath test myths are made up by dumb people who don't understand how it works. it doesn't measure the "smell" in your mouth, it measures how much alcohol vapor is in the breath that comes from your lungs. if you want to fool it, you need to get something into your lungs that would counter-act the alcohol vapor. i think if you take long deep breathes before the machine, it might help a bit. like breath in/out with open mouth as much as you can. kind of like hyper-ventilating. this might be enough to reduce alcohol vapor in your lungs enough to lower it below legal limit. kind of disappointed they didn't test it. i think it might make a difference, but it would depend how long you doing it for. if you do it 1-2 mins before taking the test, it most likely won't help at all, but if you do it for like 30 mins and then take the test, it will probably have some effect.
You need to ree do the ice bullet myth.. use an air gun and an ice bullet.. the gole should be to put a 3" deep hole in ribbed flesh !!?? The air gun will NOT melt the projectile
if you can't burp or fart i don't think you need to try that hard to burst a stomach.... i love the MythBusters but sometimes they make really stupid mistakes
The frozen chicken one always bugged me... wet 2 sponges and freeze one. Which will break a window easier? Some of the "myths" on this show (such as the plane on a conveyor) should have been completely ignored.
It's a testament to the quality of this show that the Alcatraz escape was only the 3rd favorite episode.
I would say they started with the most... iconic ones. I mean, with US standards.
Honestly IF there was anything that could interfere with the results of a breathalyzer, you know they would never show that
I'm glad that there's so many episodes of MB to distract me from sadness..
You are not alone, friend.
Well as the "doctor's orders" say, big 💥kabooms💥 are a good medicine. 😂
Hope whatever you are sad about gets resolved.

The thing is the CD one is actually true... I worked in computer maintenance for many years and had to, on several occasions, take apart a cd rom drive to remove shards of a shattered disc. It's uncommon, yes, but it does happen.
Could that have been from CDs that were already damaged or cracked?

At least, being in the USA, no-one can accuse them of wasting, (edible),food during the chicken cannon episode!
It's so weird to see Americans drunk at 0.1 when the legal limit in Croatia is 0.5, and nobody even feels drunk under that
They measured percentage. 0.5 limit in Croatia is in promille , which translates to 0.05 in percentage.
For the one with the pig car, i really hope they let the police know about their experiment, because someone could really have called in a dead body!

I was expecting the Exploding Cement Truck to be included.
They haven't tested the cement truck myth when this episode is released.
18:13 was that Kari Byron already ? I vaguely remember she was helping first before being regullar but I'm not sure.
Yes, it's her.
Kari was there in first episode. She wasn't even part of the crew but she followed them in to the desert with her own car and just... was there.
