The design and making of the lead balloon was truly compelling. I'm so glad these are on youtube now.
Here here! Used to watch them as a little kid but now I can watch them on my computer😂
Adam has said that the lead foil was one of the hardest things to source for all of Mythbusters, because no company in North America could reliably create such thin foil. Only makes me appreciate one of my favorite episodes even more!
I miss TV-shows like this :( it was a good show, fun interesting, nerdy and a bit of education in too.
The show still exists
@@bigjordognew episodes new castm and crew?
I am rewatching these and realize that it wasn’t really educational, it was not encouraging people to try new things - it was just pure entertainment, cut short enough to be fun to watch and a message “don’t do this at home!”.
@@aliancemd it's a bit educational.
@@aliancemd The show always talks about physics, chemistry, historical context, engineering, etc. The core of the TV show is to use the scientific method to check whether a myth is false, true or plausible.
How the hell is that not educational?
Adam: 🤓
Jamie: (/:€
I love that Adams first thougth was to build a D20 ^^
I didn't click that it was a D20 until I looked up the shape out of curiosity and immediately thought "Oh, a D20. lol"
I love how Kari DID put some muscle definition on Grantbot's guns there :D
Also, Jamie saying the lead balloon was "the most bizarre thing we ever put together" while the plan for the steam machine gun (aka rotation slingshot of death) was still visible behind Adam's back when planning the cube is extremely funny. Like, oh yeah, the high pressure whirling death machine? That's a dime a dozen - just another day at M5..
It's really rare that Jamie praises Adam, but it feels so good :)
jamie contragulating adam for this design is just ❤
It was scripted.
The led balloon is just awesome.
RIP Grant 😢
11:05 made me smile
respect for jamie's "sprechen sie deutsch" it was very good for an american!!
18:05 the rowbot pun is way too funny
Oh that led balloon was so fiddly, congratulations to everyone for their inhuman care, patients. But especially the ingenuity!
I must say how Mister Hyneman asks if the other person speaks English is close enough to german that everybody would understand
If The Hyneman asks, you answer, regardless of language...
@@LordStarbeard If I was on the phone and know who I was talking I would have fainted
He could have easily just spoken English. Eppstein im Taunus is a stones throw from Frankfurt am Main. Beautiful place and like most of Germany is full of the kind of Germans who begin a sentence with, "I do apologise about the awful state of my English" then proceed to speak better English than native speakers.
@@andrewince8824really? When i was in Neu Ulm 10-15 years ago i was surprised that so few people including young people didnt use english, luckily my poor highschool excusse for german came in handy.
@@grimmner Eppstein is a few km from Frankfurt and as such has a very high level of English due to the sheer amount of international business in the region. Going to the more remote areas and toward Eastern Germany you'll find fewer English speakers but in and around the big Western cities there's a long history of good English. My friends grandfather was born an raised in Mainz, speaks excellent English due to his work in the 60's. Lovely chap too, fantastic knowledge of local beers.
The lead foil used by Adam and Jamie is produced in Eppstein im Taunus (Epp-stine im T-ow-nuss, not Epp-steen). Beautiful little place in the Taunus mountains a short distance from Frankfurt am Main, even if one must unfortunately travel through Höchst to get there.
One of my favourite places in Deutschland with beautiful mountain hikes, stunning scenery and the best Italian restaurant perched up on a mountain right next to Kaisertempel.
The Germans know their stuff, that's for sure
Bless the Mythbusters always made learning exciting
47:30 That went down like a lead balloon!
I have to say the lead balloon was truly impressive.
Lead balloon is a legendary story
My favorite tv show❤️
Same here !
´
All-time favorite ! 💜
great show
Im so glad the led balloon is a success and i dont care about the destruction after the win. Greetings from Germany, whats the next, a led Zeppelin?:)
TNT explodes about 4000 m / s, not 7000.
7000 is closer to "plastic" explosives (such as hexogene, "heksogeeni", or hexotol, "heksotoli", which are, as far as I was tought on par with "C4").
Still, TNT is awesome explosive, and certainly great for this myth.
Detonation velocity 6900 m/s
RIP Grant
For anyone that cares, the origin of heavy metal was Tony Iommi losing the tips of 2 fingers in a hydraulic press and making leather covered steel prosthesis' to be able to play guitar.
that's not the origin of it. nor were his false fingertips steel, according to any source I can find.
@@DaveDexterMusic `So what's the anwser? tell me more!
R.I.P. Grant
Improbable origami !
Have you lost your damn mind😂😂😂😂
❤
Was the lead foil made in an island????
I miss Grant :c RIP ❤
Wish this had the UK voice over guy
The video of the dynamite surfers is recorded in Copenhagen, Denmark and its a fake... this never happend...
how do you upload all this is such low quality, why ? its barely watchable
Because it's literally the quality these were filmed in. This was a few years before HD TV was really a thing. All of this is perfectly watchable. Stop complaining about nothing.
this was the early 2000s be happy its not 240p like most things in those days xD
Karen.
fuck off and don't watch the free entertainment then you cheap cunt
HAHAHAHAHAHA 2000 kid
