Grant was responsible for getting a ton of kids interested in science and engineering. The world isn't the same without him in it. Rest easy, and God speed.
IN a world that ignores the truth and refuses to act civil, he was an intellectual who tried to ignite a fire and make it a brighter place. He would be sorely missed.
I concur. He is absolutely the reason I approach things from a mechanical perspective most of the time. Been watching him since O.G. BattleBots. He is one with the living force now.
And that’s why my wife & I caught each other with tears streaming down our checks on his passing. I used to tell her: “If we ever divorced, Grant would be the ONLY GUY I’d be okay with you marrying. 🥸 While in jest, the point was very real. He was the sweetest soul I’ve ever seen in both film AND television. RIP, great man. 🙏
I also recommend his tabletop episodes if you want to see him do other, differently nerdy things. He was clearly a great man and well liked by the people he met
He was a cool guy, I'm sad to see him go so early. To Grant's love ones: I think I speak for everyone, sorry for your loss but take some comfort he will NOT be forgotten and will be remember for the best reasons. Rest in peace Grant.
The community will not be the same without the famous man that uttered my favorite quote ever spoke by a person. "something just touched me" Rest in peace Grant
Grant Imahara is brilliant. Whatever crackpot concept the show Mythbusters attempted to pursue; Grant was able to develop an electrical engineering solution to test it! The real unsung (or, at least, not sung enough) genius of the group. It's too bad Imahara can't find a way to work his way into a heavily robotics focused or futurist kind of a role. Some famous physicists have managed to pigeonhole themselves into that kind of a role, but truly, Imahara, with his experience, would be better at it.
He always came across as a really genuinely sweet, kind guy who, despite being incredibly intelligent and insanely gifted in multiple creative skills, always remained humble. I’ll miss you so much, Grant.
Mythbusters was insturmental in me being an engineer today. I loved that show and I have so much respect for the people on it. Grant, you will be sorely missed.
RIP Grant Imahara. This is such sad news, he was a wonderful part of MythBusters :(. Wonderful, smart dude. Keep doing science with the angels, Grant. We'll miss you.
Grant, I wish I could have met you. You are one of the great inspirations in my life to become an Electrical Engineer. I joined Robotics and computer science in High-school and College. I competed in state and National competitions. A lot of young engineers and other people in STEM got their push from you. I am having a hard time missing you now.
Oh Grant, you inspired so many people, your scientific endeavors influenced so many children, your work was integral building many you never got to meet. The world has lost a brilliant mind, and through tears as I write this, I hope that you Rest in Peace Grant ❤
Rest in peace. It's a shame we all returned here due to the unfortunate events in real life. Thank you for entertaining and educating my 2008-2009 television days.
Grant's passing was a hard blow to take. He always seemed so youthful and full of spirit and vigor. The world is a poorer place without him. In these dark days we desperately need more people of his quality.
Rest in piece Grant. Although the world is darker without you, it is made brighter by the projects you built, the hearts you touched, and the minds you inspired. You will be remembered and missed. 2020 sucks.
😥😥 RIP Bro. Watched you on Mythbusters since I was a kid. You were one of the nicest people on TV. Always smiling, always positive, always loving what you do. You can rest now.
Finally talked with someone about it after a few days. When I said it was a brain aneurysm their response was "He must have just had too much knowledge" Rest easy Grant, the maker community will never forget everything you did to inspire us when we were young. And we will never forget you, Grant Imahara. The Man. The Myth You Could Meet. The Robot Legend.
What a loss. We felt like we really knew you, Grant. Thank you for sharing your love for science, and robots, and education. And you were way too young to leave us so soon. Rest in peace, sir.
RIP Grant, You were my favorite on Mythbusters. I loved your robots and all your cool inventions, and your White Rabbit Project too. We'll miss you so much ♥
RIP Grant Imahara...you brought joy and happness to so many people with your work and working with others...you well be missed dearly!!!...i loved you in myth busters,you were so funny on that show,all of you were!..seems like just yesterday!...and now your gone...can't believe it...2020 is one huge mess of a year...you well be missed bro...GRANT,YOU HAD A GREAT RUN!!!!
Was never good nor particularly interested in math or the sciences as a child, yet Mythbusters drew me in instantly. Thank you for the memories and Rest In Peace Grant.
Laughed so much at Grant's impersonation of Jamie haggling over the price of a valve. RIP Grant, you were a wonderful person and the world is poorer for your loss.
RIP Grant you were an inspiration to me, not just from a science / engineering perspective but also your infectious positivity. My heart goes out to the loved ones you left behind
I owe so much to him and the rest of the cast of mythbusters as it inspired me, (and many others) into perusing and education and further a career in science. He will be dearly missed but will forever be lovingly remembered by the hundreds if not thousands of young scientist who owe their careers to the enthusiasm and excitement shared with us through the show by Grant and the rest of the cast.
I know, it's so sad. All of these videos hit different now that he is gone RIP Edit: I didn't check the date of the comment. OP was referring to the B-team of myth busters leaving. I stand corrected. Yet, I still find his death extremely sad.😞
@@samirjoshi283 He was referring to the B-Team leaving the show in 2014 but yes his death is sad. One of the few celebrity deaths that have saddened me. Been watching Mythbusters since 13 and I felt like I knew the cast well. RIP Grant.
Was irked when the algorithm popped this one in my recommendations since this is too fresh a loss. Then I watched the video.. His smile is contagious in this one. I always loved robotics and he was a solid nerd of value in that regard, but that was just a fraction of what he was to this show and as a person to boot. Looked into it and he made an animatronic baby Yoda which he pushed towards charity for children's hospitals. So not only was he a patron to electrical sciences, he also had a huge heart. Way things are now a days he will be missed doubly I think. Rest well Grant! My heart goes out to your friends, family, and all who cherished the humanity you have shown.
If it weren't for that show and the work they did, I wouldn't be pursuing engineering and prop making as a profession today. RIP Grant. You will always be a hero to me and millions of fans.
if you want to see Grant Tori and Adam work together again they have a show on Netflix called the White Rabbit project. it's actually a really good show
What a class act. Doing this Q&A exemplified his great attitude & ability to communicate his thought process so anyone could understand it. Thank you Grant. You will be missed.
The grey rain-curtain turned all to silver glass and was rolled back, and he beheld white shores and beyond them a far green country under a swift sunrise.
This popped up on my recommended today and I cried a little, it's surreal to think this man inspired me with Arduino and lego nxt. We lost a titan lads.
A man who had so much passion and talent for his craft every single day. Thank you Mr. Imahara for your help in making science fun for me growing up. Rest easy.
I think the time they accidentally launched a cannonball into somebody's home was a *way* bigger screw up than an explosion that was bigger than they expected...
Huh so why is this 8 year old video in my recommended? Ah whatever Grant is a cool dude, I'll watch it. I'll just check the comments and- wait why is everybody talking about him in past tense? Oh. Oh no.
How did the camera man miss the explosion because of the shockwave, when he should have pressed the button BEFORE the explosion happened? I'm pretty confused.
+JP Roche the camera constantly captures, but pressing the button _saves_ the last number of seconds onto permanent storage. by the time he would have remembered to press the button, the 15 seconds or so that the camera keeps temporarily would have been deleted

To be completely honest, he was the one I took for (Grant)ed. I always knew he was an incredibly smart and nice person, but I never appreciated him for it as much as I should have. Since his death, I have been incredibly saddened by this unfortunate event. He was amazing; he did many amazing things, made many amazing things possible, and got many amazing people where they are today (and will be in the future). RIP Grant, we all miss you.
