On this wet and wild episode, Adam and Jamie tackle the biggest, dirtiest, most vertigo inducing build in MythBusters history.
Who's here after Adam posted a video on his Tested channel talking about this build and set of days?
Me
Me
Me and I’m imagining a super man flying crew launching off
And now we all know he was wearing a latex fetish suit lolol
2 tabs open.. lol
If he kept his arms and legs together they would have had less resistance built more speed and thus would have gone farther
+Michael L. Let's see you try to keep balance on a rocky terrain like this. They obviously would have normally kept their legs and arms in. But if you watched it PROPERLY. You can clearly see they keep nearly sliding off the side.
+KrazyKiwi first off. If the slide was considered rocky terrain than that slide would no longer be a flat service and hitting slide like that going 30 mph would send you to the hospital. The bulges on the sides would have kept them on the slide. Nothing would make them go off the sides if it's a straight slide. And yes I could easily do it
+Michael L. Yeah, I never understood why they considered this myth busted when they couldn't even go down the slide like a pro...going down with legs and arms spread wide is going to slow you down considerably, and they still achieved over 70 feet.
+Michael L. They did it because they wanted to imitate the exact position that the people in the video did, not their own position that would mess up there discovery.
+Michael L. why would this slow them down? Where is the resistance coming from?
I remember looking forward to watching MythBusters every week after school in the 2000s. It was one of my favourite shows on TV at the time.
Yup... Monster Garage and Orange County Choppers too.
The good ol days!
you wouldn't have known he was miserable the whole time.
I don't think he was miserable the whole time. I think that what he just says now.
Probably saying that for legal reasons
only in the last shot on target he was supposedly miserable. all the first day stuff he was having fun
I bet they knew it was fake but they still did it for fin
+Bilbo Baggies It could've been real they just suck at sliding.
+Relvex it is not possible
you are extremely stupid
It's easily debunked simply by using math, the princilpe of energy conservation and the basics of kinematics.
annnd by just watching the video ;) if it had been real the side of the pool would of been pushed out. we ALL know it is fake but it IS fun ;)
Anyone else come here from the Tested episode to see what he was talking about?😂
Adam: "I wish you could try this."
Narrator: "Well, we can't."
The crew: "HoW 'bOuT i Do AnYwAy!"
RUclips recommended it under that video, so I had to
Yup
Eyo
Yesssir
2:17 The yell gets me so much lmao, coupled with the way he flies through the air
Sounds like a war cry!!!😂😂😂
Seeing Adam this young makes me feel old. I never missed an episode when I was young!! 🖖🏼
Honestly it’s the fact Adam keeps screaming while airborne and he gets abruptly cut off by impact that makes it twice as funny
I need a water slide like this for Christmas!
Mum I'm sure its not that big
I want it right under the tree!!!
So did you get it? >:3
No! :-(
SpongeFlashie
I laughed so hard at the second attempt, his groans of trepidation as he slowly rotates just really got me.
This should be a sport on Summer Olympics!
Greg Jonson luge and ski jump are winter olympic sports. Kinda close 🤷♂️
Here here.
This should be a winter sport, where you land in a hole in the ice.
ABC Wide World of Sports flashbacks anyone? Jim MacKay: And the agony of defeat...
Well there’s breakdancing now soooooo?!!
dude that intro music takes me straight back to the mid-2000's, afternoons after coming home from high school, snacking on gas station pizza (yeah I love that stuff).
Same, but for me it was elementary and jovy fruit rolls.
With the right technique you can slide a lot faster. This was the worst possible way to slide. I bet with the right technique he could go 50% further.
They weren't trying to measure how far they could possibly land...
Elbows and heels
@@classymuffin4589 they wa ted to replicate the video and thats how the original did it
@@baileywalter7201 Indeed.
@@smingjr exactly, only I use my shoulder blades and heels. I often hit the end of the slides in the run out zone : )
1:40 when you finally break no nnut November

Chex that’s great, made my day
@@SAMHARM1020
Chex 😂
"Ferb, I know what we're gonna do tody!"
They really should bring this show back. Big hit in the UK. Big hit everywhere I think
To be honest my favorite part of this episode was when they ere buiding the ramp and one of the guys dropped a roll of duct tape making the top and it just started rolling down until it few off the other end
There is so much human error here.... The video isn't real but if he used any proper form he would have made it much farther
That's the flippin point...
Oh OK smarty-pants
I think we can safely conclude that the Mythbusters had more fun than anyone.
Idk, Jeremy Clarkson, James May, and Richard Hammond probably had way more fun on Top Gear/Grand Tour.
@@dickJohnsonpeter it was nothing but cars... Mythbusters did everything crazy.
@@theuniversewithin74 Fun is subjective
@@Empty12345 fun is fun. And more fun is funner. Fun the fun.
@@theuniversewithin74 Allllrighty then
if he closed his legs he would have went past his point
Much better than watching on Tee Vee where you are forced to watch annoying ads over and over before getting any real show content !
I watched this TV with my dad and we both laughed our asses when Adam went the full slide lol
2:55
"I wish you could try this"
"Well, we can't"
And then, 10 years later, Adam explained that the camera crew did in fact, against what they were told to, all went down the slide before dismantling it.
2:17 I died at this point 😂🤣 LMFAO
It’s Adam’s scream that gets me 😂🤣
Damn, and you were resurrected. Good job.
Sounds like a war cry!!!
I would do this. I'm terrified of heights, but I would still TOTALLY do this. The boys look like they're having a great time.
Me at 0:25 "THIS IS GOING TO BE AWESOME!!!" Then me at 0:28 "Huh...?! Wha...? AAAAHAHAHAHA!!!!" XD
I saw it coming 😂
The orange ramp change upward to soon unlike the white version. Also Adam and Jaime have there legs open at the start. They need to cross them to get more speed.
2019? Idrc I always find myself watching older videos... But they are WAY funnier than the ones we have now.
I feel like a bad person, but I can't help utterly cracking up over the noises he makes when he takes flight
Kickass !
I'd volunteer to do that in a heartbeat
mythbusters were the coolest thing in my childhood
What if the rope from the "kiddie pool" when in between his legs when he landed? What kind of myth are they busting?
Nutbusters
WhatAreYouBuyen nut busting
the myth that they have balls
The myth they were busting was if you could travel far from a slide into a body of water, as in the MEGAWOOSH video
I miss this show
Or...you could just have asked Microsoft who did the CG for that advertisement.
Yeah because that would've made a great episode...
Dave Carr you have more like than the original comment ha
UNIVERSAL GAMING not anymore
Busting myths can be a real pain in the butt
Would have been dope if they did like a running start like when we was kids lol
At 2:17 it sounded like a war cry!!! Still funny!!!😂😂😂
57 people couldn't go farther than 4 feet.
Ice Angel, Celestial Wing 932 now, 4 years later... feeling old ?
Imagine if they built rollercoasters and waterparks for a living
Err... The curve of the slide was all wrong. It has to be a cycloid.
Zane Bastian what is that ? yes i am serious and i dont live in an English speaking country that's why i am asking this question
BeastHugzHD its a fucking word google it you illiterate
BeastHugzHD if you have access to the internet then just look it up.
Hey vsauce Michael here. Where are your fingers?
i know i’m a couple years late lmao but y’all all he did was just ask a simple question! yes he could have googled it, but i mean it doesn’t do any harm just to tell him simply what it is! better to help people that are asking for help instead of making them feel dumb for asking for help, at least that’s the way I see it.
I swear Adam's yells are the absolute best 😆
"That undignified dismount" Ah my gawd, lol'd
Anyone that has been to a water park KNOWS to cross your hands and feet... I'm really surprised no one there told them that bit of information.. They would have gotten more distance.
lmao i love this video so much, two jolly ol nerds going down a massive water slide, screaming and yelling 😂 loved this! wish i had a water slide that large! also the water is impressively blue lol
Man I miss this show
Who can help me to find a waterslide exactly like this ???
In ur dreams lmao
-_-
In Pablo's ass
@gntaco lol!
Pablo Loera LOL YOUR ASS.
On a British documentary program called “QED”back in the eighties they went into the science of water slides simply put it you arch your back so only your heels and shoulders were in contact with the slide you went much faster ,I did this on a slide at splash down water park in Vancouver,I got a bollocking from the staff for showing the Canadian kids how to go faster they were getting air big time on one of the slides.
I'm going to make one of these
Invite me over
Same but I don't wanna so invite me over too
www.GPcarAudio.com can I come over?
Please don't
Well, you've had 5 years. Did u make one?
If you see this in reverse, it's about a gigantic fat fish jumping backwards out of the water and landing perfectly in a landing ramp. :D
3:34 Adam is doing a T-pose!
Hahahah! The shots of him flying through the air are hilarious 😂😂
I'm jealous, looks so damn fun!!
Ooo an f1 fan?
I bet if the slide were longer and the hill was steeper it would be plausible
Whose here after the tested episode?
This slide, the position of the slider, and probably the lubricant, are all different from the video.
Should have tried the non-chloric, silicon based kitchen lubricant by Redco.
How to make it faster/more dangerous
· Narrower slide
· Higher walls
· Become as narrow as possible
should have made it smaller so he could have put is leggs crossed so the water wouldent spray his face... like you do at real waterslides
Have 3 sheets of math, 2 sheets of English, 1 study sheet of science, study for my Spanish test coming up, watching Myth Busters.
3:50 Jamie is loaded
To the people saying that they need to tuck their arms and legs in. Yes you have a point, doing that will give them more speed. but it also makes it harder to stay on the ramp, they would need to make the slide have a slight dip in the middle of it to make sure they stay in the middle or it.
99% of the comments: They should’ve tucked their arms in
1% of the comments: THIS COMMENT
0:27, him being falling off like that was like something out of a cartoon. Lol
he did an awesome goofy yell
As I watch I keep yelling " use corn syrup!!!"
How would corn syrup help? Wouldn't it just slow them down? Asking out of curiosity.
+Destiny McIntire year i think it would make him go slower
No tide fish soap works best
Yeah corn syrup is like maple syrup. You mean corn oil like Pam. In actually you would want a high viscosity low weight oil water mix. Although add in a concave child slide shape and you would approach the sound barrier.
I think he slowed himself down a bit, put the legs together and hold those arms in, maybe a bit more water and it would be much better I think.
exactly what I thought, did everything he could to slow down
its not a fair experiment he spread his arms and legs on the way down which would have slowed him
you spread your legs to stay centered
His legs weren't together and he kept intentionally slowing himself out of fear
feets and miles... what a shitty system.
***** Maintaining a shitty system for pride reasons. Sprinkle some "this is America" and "freedom" on top of that stupid discourse and you have an American Pie of shit. Can't be more American than that.
+Spirit Our shitty system got us to the Moon just fine.
Peter Guthrie Yeah... it is "so good" that NASA realized how shitty it was to the point of SWITCHING to f-ing metric a long time ago.
Spirit Damn. You're really butthurt about a system of measurement.
+Peter Guthrie Yeah... the ammount of people thinking imperial system is a patriotic issue got my jimmies rustled, man.
One thing to note. It looks like the original video is completed in an Alpine area (high elevation = thinner air = higher speed).
Haha the disclaimer: I don't own anything. Homeless or what?
Aurel Kohler that's not funny
Aurel Kohler LMAO 😂😂
The significant error was keeping his legs open, slowing him down. Luge you keep your legs together.
That's because you didn't wet the whole slide. If u wet the whole thing u could've got better results
Fish are looking up thinking, “Who keeps throwing away perfectly good people?”
Just watched this video and I'm wondering how the distance would be if someone slide on his belly in a WINGSUIT ^^
Or a running start
With olive oil as a lubricant
@@rayl7336 yeah sure, and we’ll change pond out for an elephant 😜🤣🤣🤣
I did this in a waterpark in Ibiza on the extreme slide. The body position with arms and legs tight by me side was important for a phenomenal ride and air time, however it was absolutely hell on the nads ):
2:17
"WOOOOOAAA-" *SPLASH*
Sounds like a war cry!!!😂😂😂
He's keeping his arms and legs open, slowing him down.
2:12 Bulge cam
“Break a leg.”
And he meant it.
why would you keep your arms and legs wide open lol , fucking terrible test.
so that you stay straight going down
And also because this is the way the guy in the video slides. To test the video you need to be as accurate as possible
he was chicken shit
The New Captain to maintain balance duh
Its been reported by the Voyager II space probe......that Adam's echoing screams ..... are still echoing around the Moons of Uranus.
how is it myth busted?? what was the height and angle used in the video, and what is the height and angle used by myth busters?? non of these critical information is given.
+Asterio The creators of the original video admitted it was fake.
Also in the original video, the kiddie pool was farther down a hill.
This video is cut down
That must have been a fun day. You know everyone did it.
he is slowing his self down, it don't matter how far you go up on the ramp if you are going to keep it slow by putting your arms down and legs out. Put somebody on there with some balls and do a real test. T.V. bullshit anyway
did anyone else notice how much he used his arms and legs to slow him down? he would of gone farther if the tucked in his legs and arms
mythbusters aren't accurate with their myth busting trials...the slide in the myth video had a wider curve.
That video was obviously edited, they knew it was busted way before they tested it, they just did it for fun
I remember watching that episode. One of my favorite scenes of any myth busters episode
"I'm Adam Savage and this is Mythbusters" Corona by Minutemen plays
Bustin' the JC pose perfectly.
I can feel the hard drive failing in this DVR
He never pulled his legs and arms in into a torpedo position. He was slowing himself down
Damn I thought I'd found a full HD mythbusters video on RUclips, nope just the intro
i think that he goes short bc the end of the ramp is not wet therefore breaks him as he goes out
Adam was never seen again after being taken away by the ambulance......Adam's Famous Last Words......"I'm O.K....."I'm O.K."
Ah yes the algorithm has chosen now to make this popular again since Adam talked it on Tested
the one thing that would've affected this for the better would have been if he have gone down forcing his body up so that all the surface tension was just his feet and shoulder blades, effectively making them skids.
I believe that the material of the slide and the wetsuits create far too much friction.
I bet the entire crew spent the entire afternoon playing on that after filming this.
