A little fluff for MythBusters fans.

Love the Mythbusters. They have a lot of fun with none of that BS drama that most shows have these days (e.g. "Smash Lab," "Master Blasters" ad nauseum).
Every time I watch that show, I say to the family, "That's what I want to do when I grow up!" :-)

I think one of the more recent episodes we did called ''Lead Balloon'' is the best representative of what we do to date.I was a little surprised that they didn't do the lead balloon with hydrogen, rather than helium, but as it turns out helium has about 92% of the lifting power of hydrogen, since it's the difference in density from air, not the density itself, that counts.

I’m left wondering how much is biology vs how much is mechanical engineering, in that photo. It’ll need further study.

And by the way, we have to note that we have a strict policy that any of these animals we get from the butcher, we eat. If we can't eat it, we donate it to a soup kitchen. Just wouldn't want to be the soup kitchen that got the carcasses from the Corpse in the Corvetee segment.

The one myth that really surprised me was getting shot under water (from the opening scene of Saving Private Ryan). These guys showed that as little as one foot of water will stop even the most high powered rifle. The bullet simply disintegrates.
Last night they showed that you CAN chop down a tree with a machine gun. Cool.

The chicken cannon is by far the best experiment they’ve ever done.

She scares me. Very freaky. Sometimes she’s over the top; do a google search on her and look at some of her sculptures.

I haven’t seen that episode, actually. And here I thought I had seen them all.
I’m looking forward to tonight’s show. The MacGyver myths should be fun.
