      Which was also around the time Adam's blood sugar was low and he became somewhat infamous for getting cranky whenever this happened, and Jamie would tell Adam to eat a cookie, literally.

      All jokes aside, that's pretty much what they are. I remember some of my favorite parts of the show we're them figuring out how to our Buster back together and make him better/stronger/more resilient, like when they gave him new "skin" and he ended up being pink, or the wooden "bones" the created at one point. Buster became as much of a member of the team as the rest of the crew, and all the gashes, weld marks, and burns were the battle scars that told the story of this otherwise silent being.

    This made me tear up a little. Watching Mythbusters was one of my favourite pastimes when I was younger. I still remember the first episode I saw. I was on holiday in a villa in Florida with my parents, we were watching it on one of those old fashioned big screen rear projection TVs, the quality was awful compared to today. It was the episode where you were trying to see if a metal filling could pick up a radio transmission, I was meant to be doing school work but just ended up watching the whole episode. A year or so later I found it again back home in the UK on Discovery and binge watched as much as I could.
    But those memories I have were not what made me tear up. You made me realize how big a part of your lives the show was, not just the 5 main presenters, but the whole cast and crew. It's sad that it ended, but it is nice to see you still here, tinkering and doing the things you love, and sharing that with us. Thanks.

    I grew up watching mythbusters. You guys and gals were superheroes to me. I named my dog Buster after your Buster. He is now 14 years old has survived two heart conditions and constant lung troubles. It scares the crap out of me every time and every time I think "this is it, this is the day my dog leaves me" and every time he comes out fine. The vet drains his lungs or changes his meds and he is back at it wanting to play and eat everything. I know the day will finally come where he no longer wants to bounce back, but until then he is my indestructible Buster. Thank you for all the wonderful times Mr. Savage.

I have Literally Seen every Episode of mythbusters, since the show first aired. It got even better when Tori, Grant, and Carry joined the crew. I think there were still many Myths yet to be tested. I my opinion, the show ended too soon. I really hope you read most of the comment on your channel. And I would hope that one day in the future, that Mythbusters will return. even if if the rebirth of the show is you and Jamie handing off the reigns of the show to a newer generation of Mythbusters. with you and Jamie occasionally doing a Cameo.

You and the Mythbusters team are the reason I took an interest in engineering and science, I cant describe in words the impact (pun intended) you had on my childhood. I was devastated when I heard the show was ending, but it brought so much joy when I found tested, to get to see you making these incredible creations.

    I am so happy to see that you still have Buster with you. The story of his origin is fantastic to know. Thank you for sharing.

    Mythbusters was my childhood. Knowing y'all all kept parts of what I'll call the team's mascot brings a smile to my face.
