The reason why Adam looks so defeated after Jamie tells him that he lost his hair too was that Adam had a date that night with the woman he eventually married and there's no way to look good on a date with scorched hair.
You're absolutely right, but still, wouldn't that be about the best first-date ice-breaker you could ask for? "What happened to your hair?" "Well, I have this crazy TV show..."
One of my favorites they didn't show was right after the cement truck explosion which left nothing but a few small pieces. Adam touring the crater says: "I swear I parked it right here" XD
*Adam and Jamie layering phone book pages* "Does this remind you of when you used to count money for the mob?" "I was a hitman, I wasn't the money counter."
Can we acknowledge that they basically had probably the healthiest work relationship ever shown on screen? Two guys who don’t really get along, who aren’t even really friends, and yet they still got things done and were able to go off of each other like that
My favorites: "There's your problem!" "Jamie wants big boom." "I reject your reality and substitute my own!" "The only difference between science and screwing around is writing it down!" "When in doubt: C4." "This is why we can't have anything nice."
This is even acknowledge by Adam himself. He once said that "people might see me as "the guy from Mythbusters", but people will DEFINITELY see Jamie as "the guy from Mythbusters".
Jamie is stone cold but when he says “youre alright it wont look weird after a day or two” i could feel the sympathy and honesty in his voice, definitely is speaking from experience😂
+777Abrams My favorite variation on that one involved musical instruments and high explosives (I can't recall which episode) But I think it was actually the NARRATOR saying this particular line: "The Mythbusters Symphony in C4!" XD
I'm glad they recognized the importance of Jamie. I loved every minute of this show, from the very first time I saw it. And if I could visit one guy in his house, have a beer and talk nerd stuff, it would probably be Adam Savage. But Jamie's technical interests and "I don't know if I like having that camera following me around" character were really what sold the show for me. The end of Mythbusters, to me, was the final nail in Discovery Channel's coffin; I have no use for them anymore. Someone told me that there was a reboot being done, which surprised me more than it should have, but if it doesn't have Jamie and Adam front and centre, I'm not interested.
Jamie was the perfect straight man to Adam's wacky and lively personality. Loved this series. I dunno about a reboot, but there were some episodes I caught called "Mythbusters Jr." where Adam is there with random kids who do builds and things to test some myths out. Not the same, but I did enjoy what I saw and glad that it's somewhat available for people in these times. I think Adam's Tested youtube channel is the next best thing, since you can watch him make builds and geek out over many things.
Their personalities played off each other so well that Mythbusters is almost like a cartoon or something. The "build team" was great too, but in their own way.
I honestly prefer cancelling the show when it’s still fresh to continuing for too long. If Jamie and Adam had continued, we might now have been talking about how the show has gotten stale and they should have stopped.
Grant: "See, you can't use that. He will KILL me." Later... Producer: This is comedy gold. We are totally using this. Intern: But... Producer: No buts. Jamie's a walrus personified, and we need to emphasize that. Intern: Okay... *says a prayer for Grant silently*
then jamie and grant both build progressively larger robots in attempts to kill each other and the whole thing just degenerating into a giant robotic walrus fighting a giant robotic ninja.
This video transported me back to fifth grade when I bought an "I reject your reality and substitute my own" shirt from ebay and thought I was the coolest fucking kid in existence. In hindsight, I totally was.
My favorite part of the "missing an eyebrow" clip is Adam being worried about how he'll look on his date the next day and Jaime saying "What's more important? Survival, or sex?" 😂
3:41 Grant: No you can't use that, [footage of his impression of Jamie's mustache during various states of high-emotion] He will kill me... *FLASH OF WHITE ACCOMPANIED BY A LOUD BOOM SOUND*
I think that i will never get tired hearing Adam say "I reject your reality and substitute my own.". Nor will I ever get tired of him calling Jamie "Silent Walrus" from the Ninja Myths episode.
Adam: "Does this remind you of when you were a money counter for the mob?" Jamie: "I was a hit man, not a money counter." Heeee! I forgot all about that! Next to "Adam needs a cookie," that might just be my favorite Jamie quip ever. He never missed a beat. Even if it was scripted, he still knocked it out of the park. Good show, Hyneman!
You forgot Kary "devolving into Cro Magnon speech patterns" from the "Instant convertible" myth, when the car runs over the hill at the end of the runaway, and they have no idea what's beyond it. Those seconds of Kary's facial expressions was the best summary of Mythbusters! How could you!
I mean they are right. Jamie is this urban legend now. His past includes every job you ever heard of and then some you havent, he can do everything, build everything and remain as deadpan as ever and his moustache can wrestle people to the ground and cure cancer.
OG Mythbusters was a once in a lifetime show man. Even if Adam & Jamie didn’t get along off camera, you could tell that everyone involved with the show had the absolute time of their lives
"I reject your reality, and substitute my own" was such a good quote I assumed it was from a famous writer. When I realized he just said it off the cuff it made me a lifetime fan.
What about, "The only difference between science and screwing around, is writing it down"
I forgot about that one. I love it! That would make for a wonderful T-Shirt.
Which I consider accurate
My AP Biology teacher had that taped to the board lol
Yeah as far as I know that's the most well-known
That was my school’s science Olympiad tagline a couple years ago

One of my favorite lines of Mythbusters (from the Zombie Special):
“This barn is 153 years old, so built when Jamie was just a wee lad.”
He was gathering his Great grandchildren
Adam: “Was that something you did during the War?”
Jamie: “What war would that be?”
@@Imlaor25rare time he got Adam good with a comeback
"I mean he's just a normal guy, you know? He puts his beret on...like any other dude who chooses to wear a beret...." *visible confusion*
I like... berets? Is that the plural for beret?
@@ChadKakashi maybe and idk
Pretty sure Jamie is a spy.
@@samhenley7156 He was a hitman, he even said so.
Is he doing his David Attenborough thing again? Had me dying
Wolfman B. Adam would be like, "Ah, bugger." Which is kinda appro pro, considering this iteration is edited in Sydney, actually.
I loved it when Jamie was
"Quack damn you"
I went to the comments to say the exact same thing. That bit never gets old.
I *NEED* to know what Jamie needed that stick for,
The best thing about this clip is that Jamie KNOWS Adam does that thing...
One of my favorites they didn't show was right after the cement truck explosion which left nothing but a few small pieces. Adam touring the crater says:
"I swear I parked it right here" XD
"Sir, If I had to guess, your cement truck is stolen..." *points to shrapnel* "or vaporized"
Thank you for remembering that moment of pure comedy gold
*lifts up singular mangled piston*
"see that's your problem right there"
"Well, there's your problem"
I can't tell you how many times I've used that after hearing it in the Green Hornet episode.
it's probably the best way to indicate to someone what their problem is.
I use it all the time, any time something isn't working for some strange reason then the clear, obvious, resounding reason is discovered.
I use it to this day, pretty sure I used it just last week
I try to nail the intonation but I just can't quite get it
I say it all the time lol, at work, at home, it doesn't matter. If I find someone's problem, I'm gonna say it lol
RIP Grant
Watching these clips, it's hard to believe that he's gone :( It feels like yesterday that these were airing for the first time.

Jamie the Black Beret!
It's hilarious...especially followed by a montage of Adam falling in the pool flat on his face.

Even though it wasn't on here, Grant screaming "SOMETHING JUST TOUCHED ME!" in a primal mix of fear and anger holds a special place in my heart. RIP
If I remember correctly, that quote was used in a later part of that special. Or earlier. I know it was in there.
QUACK DAMN YOU!! 🦆😠

Producer: No buts. Jamie's a walrus personified, and we need to emphasize that.

The funniest part of this is that earlier Jamie says he was a hitman for the mob... Grant should run.

He shouldn't; he'd just die tired!
I have never seen the clip of the walrus next to jamie swimming in syrup, that was too funny.
QUACK DAMN YOU!
then jamie and grant both build progressively larger robots in attempts to kill each other and the whole thing just degenerating into a giant robotic walrus fighting a giant robotic ninja.
It wasn't Jamie that got him. RIP Grant, you will be missed.
Funniest one liner for me is whenever Adam or Jamie said "there's your problem" :D
Also every 'wild hyneman' bit cracks me up
+estidi "Is he doing his David Attenborough thing again?"
*FALLS OVER LAUGHING XD*
Adam: "Does this remind you when you used to count money for the mob?"
Jamie: "I was a hit man, not a money counter."
My favorite line 😂
So damn quick
"You can't use that, he will kill me"
*a single frame of chaos*
*video ends*
This video transported me back to fifth grade when I bought an "I reject your reality and substitute my own" shirt from ebay and thought I was the coolest fucking kid in existence. In hindsight, I totally was.
"Deadly if provoked!" I roared with laughter! Mostly because I think it subconsciously betrays Adam's real respect for Jamie. So good!
"Our death ray doesnt seem to working. I am standing right in it and I'm not dead yet." Has to be my favorite
I watched this so much as a kid and it's definitely where I got my sense of humor
I reject your reality and substitute my own
Dungeon Master
This line, in turn, was used in SAO Abridged. The lineage continues.
honestly the reason this one is so iconic is mostly that it was in the intro for years
I love how he says "Don't use that he will kill me" and the clip just ends with like one frame of an explosion. Jamie found out, no one survived.
"You can't use that. He will kill me."
*building explodes*
My favorite part of the "missing an eyebrow" clip is Adam being worried about how he'll look on his date the next day and Jaime saying "What's more important? Survival, or sex?" 😂
What a perfect duo of geniouses! They have affinity and contrast. Jamie: funny chilled and perfectly concisely. Adam: funny and espontaneous creator
3:42 "you cant use that he will kill me"
*fucking explodes*
My favorite will forever be "Remember kids! It's not illegal if you don't get caught!"
"Quack, damn you!" That's the one that ALWAYS makes me giggle.
Grant: this is why we can't have anything nice.
Never before have those words felt so real.
I thought I remembered a lot of lines, but this awoke memories I didn't remember I had
“Our death ray doesn’t seem to be working. I’m standing right in it, and I’m not dead yet” is probably my favorite tbh
3 years later and it’s still the only line to get an audible laugh from me
Damn RIP GRANT :'(
Rest In Peace Grant, you will be missed.
My kids were CRAZY about MythBusters and one of them summed it up in a simple, three-word description: “Science go BOOM!”
God I love Jamie and Adam. I just wish they where more fond of each other.
Is he doing his David Attenborough thing again?
maybe it's why Jaymie is silent in tribute to Grant... peace in Heaven, Grant...
