Jamie: *breaks lawn mower*
Jamie's Dad: *literally welds it back together*
No,Jamie's Dad would have made HIM weld it back up.
The damn kid broke it,didn't he?
@@doughesson Who hurt you?
*Literally, deuude?*
He *literally* welded it?
Wow, deuude.
Get the fuck out of here.
Lol I worked at a small golf course for a couple years. Basically same stuff would happen ,but not on purpose cause we were getting paid. Running over sprinklers, having hard stuff smash into the reals dulling, and sometimes breaking stuff. Lol there was Tee Box mower and one of the Tee boxes was up a kill. The mowers traction sucked because it had bald tires so it doesn't damage the Tee boxes super short grass. So going up and down that hill was always pretty sketchy. Doubly so the grass was wet from watering or dew. The new kid road down the kill backwards and into the little creek/stream at the bottom of the hill.
Lean like a Cholo lmao
by the thumbnail and title I though they were mowing ammo like in bullets.
+Filipe Nunes Yeah, I wanted to know if it's dangerous to hoover up a bullet or mow a bullet.
+FuManBoobs probably really dangerous because in order to ignite the propellant you have to hit the primer with enough force to causes it to ignites the propellant that then launches the bullet, and pretty sure the blades of a lawn mower has more than enough kinetic energy to do so.
Deathcap Rabadon I suppose this would be too unpredictable and dangerous to try?
I'm curious because in the movie Pineapple Express one of the characters drops a load of bullets to which another character replies "make sure you get those, I don't wanna run em over in the vacuum cleaner and shoot my face off".
Would it be the same if you tested it with blanks?
+FuManBoobs MattV2099 did a test with .22 ammo in a blender a round went off.
/watch?v=M71dxHFD3-U
Of course, it will always be easier to set off .22 rounds than something like 9mm or .308 rounds as the .22 is a rimfire cartridge, meaning the entire base of the cartridge is a primer, compared to the center fire cartridge of the other rounds.
Something to consider when it comes to the danger of loose ammo, is that a lot of the power of a bullet comes from the expanding gasses of the powder pushing the bullet(or other ammunition) down the barrel. With no barrel to trap the gasses, the bullet would only be traveling at a tiny fraction of the speed it normally would. For instance handguns with shorter barrels will have a lower muzzle velocity than one with a longer barrel, because the gasses had less time to accelerate the bullet. No barrel, hardly any acceleration.
The thumbnail made me think Adam was running over actual ammunition with a lawnmower
Uraneum same
I want to see that now
Uraneum same I'm disappointed now
I thought they were running over pennies
same and i thought it would shoot out and the ammunition would be lethal
"a process called arguing" I know this process well
I disagree
Well quit doing that
Ha ha you both.
My bosses do this constantly. I keep thinking a fight is going to break out at some point, but then I remember that the owner is from New York, it's just him getting his point across.
@@joshuanorman2 That's not an argument, it's just contradiction
"You have to communicate what's in your head to other people. Jamie and I do it through a process called arguing." Every professional relationship in America.
I think the easiest explanation for the questions consisting of "Why did you ____ instead of just doing ____?"
Would be "Doing it your way isn't fun."
love the "no comment" Jamie look at the end. Just perfect
+666Tomato666 both our accounts were created in late 2007 as well :D, strange coincidences!
:D
The "nice joke, Dad" look
Jamie, you purposely crashed your dad's lawn mower into trees so it'd break in order to get out of mowing!?! Never would have expected to hear that about someone as serious and perfectionist as him.
Having and known and worked with people akin to Jamie, I'm honestly not even the slightest bit surprised
Geoff Flato
Is no one going to ask you how you know these people?
@@dr.zoidberg5096 Sounds like my Dad, honestly.
An Onymous
Learn some respect punk. The statement he made is implying that HE knows him personally. So why don’t you take that sorry attitude back to your moms house so the adults can talk here.
@@dr.zoidberg5096 "akin" means of similar character. Meaning he knows people like Jamie not that he knows Jamie personally.
they irritated each other they didn't hate each other. theyre smart and methodical. theyre approach to things are probably miles apart
their
their approach
they're is they are
Did you really need 3 comments to say that? there is an edit comment button.
Mackenzie Ross it would be like putting Sheldon Cooper on a project with Abed Nadir.. they'd never see eye to eye, but it would epic
I like Adam's response at 5:00. I've had that problem before with this show (why not use mathematical modeling). It's really cool how the show demonstrates physics in action, showing forces at work.
Adam: "Jamie and I do this by a process we call … arguing."
Jamie: [knowing smile]
Adam: "You spent your childhood learning how to mow, and you spent your adulthood working on your 'mo!"
Jamie: [why did I choose him?]
4:40 "Lawn of the Dead" coming to theaters near you.
"You generally don't mow massive piles of rocks"
I beg to differ, I tend to mow my rocks fairly often!
I absolutely LOVE the Mythbusters! It's the show that you watch everyday without getting bored! Also, I love science so it's basically science and fun!
I love Adam and Jamie because they are so different but they come to the same conclusions. :)
Myth busters basically answered the question of "What would happen if Mr Wizard had the annual budget of NASA?"
" Hi,kids! Today, we're going to see what happens when you drop a mobile home out of a C-130 at 35,000 feet!"
I know someone who had part of his skull fractured by a rock from a lawn mower. He spent two weeks in hospital and required surgery to repair the damage and relieve the pressure on his brain. There are still some titanium screws in his skull that they put there when reattaching the skull section.
CuttlefishPi Damn.
When I was a teenager I had a job mowing the lawns and cemetery at the local church which was built in the early 19th century. One day as I was mowing in the cemetery I walked over an old grave that had no marker on it and it collapsed under my weight. I only dropped about 8 inches but it was more than enough to put the fear of God in me.
well, that must have been chilling
At least nobody yelled at you nor a terribly curse befell you for eternity
People bury a space underground and after 200 years the frame of that space breaks under your weight so it makes you fear God? I'd be more afraid of stupid people and that God doesn't care about preserving sacred spaces.
T found the militant atheist
Cleatus McGurkin sounds like the body rotted and the empty space left was a hole under the ground you fell into
I remember when my stepdad took a 3.5hp snowblower and changed the engine to a 16HP monster. The wheels just weren't having that.. so I suggested adding metal sleds for the front. That worked alright. The rocks in our driveway went with such a high velocity, it smashed out the windows of my truck without making an audible sound.
I was mad underneath, but I was laughing my ass off as I felt it being a rather Red Green/ Tim the Toolman Taylor aftermath.
Incognis Reviews Red Green was a great show!
I adored the Red Green show...it's part of the reason I love mythbusters and youtubes very own AvE. Release the Schmoo!
all the red green shows are on youtube
If women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.
I once got picked up to go to work with my boss from construction and he got a rental stuck onto a curb that was going into an underground parking garage, but there was an alley next to it that we wanted to pull into for the restaurant next to the alley.
Stuck on the front axle icy winter, he didn't know what to do trying to put it in reverse while the front wasn't on the ground.
I got some wood nearby from beside a trash bin, iced over so I knew it was decently clean, put under the wheel that was hanging so it had traction, it shot one piece of wood like a bullet but pulled onto the higher ground so all four wheels were in place to reverse.
His words were "Let's get the hell out of here" lmfao.
As a former Glazier, I can say that working with glass is one of the most dangerous construction jobs you can do. The stories, to go with the scars I've seen on my workmates, will scare you so much you're hair turns white. The worst cut you can get is the one where the broken glass drops down onto the inside of your wrists. I got lucky on the day it happened to me, I just got a minor cut, but I've seen scars that go the full width of the wrist and appear to be down to the bone.
Getting wacked in the head with a stone from a lawnmower would be a doddle compared to having a bit of glass hit you... from any angle!
Yeah man, you’re a real patriot and a hero.
I miss Mythbusters already
James Fulkerson i know this is 1 year old comment but who doesn't?
KILLEKIRAHVI I really did cringe at the one show where they were finding the next Mythbusters, but it was so cringey and bad that I forgot what anything happened and the name of it
James Fulkerson oh yeah that one... it was terrible...
James Fulkerson you miss you man do I miss it.
:’(
Me too
When I was a kid we had a black walnut tree in our yard and my step father was standing maybe 30 feet away from me while I was mowing, I hit one of the black walnuts with the lawn mower and sent it flying like a golf ball off a tee straight into his balls. Needless to say he was decommissioned for the rest of the day
Thomas Redden i remember when i went close to city workers mowing the lawns near my block of flats. One of the mowers hit a rock, it went flying into my leg, and made a small hole in my jeans...the hole enlarged in the next week untill it was too noticable to wear :c my favourite jeans
LOL, Oh that just hurts reading it.
Ouch.
A fate worse than death
Having several black walnut trees throughout my yard, i can only imagine the pain he must be in as those damn walnuts are obscenely hard.
"Working on your mo!" So bad, but still so funny :)
+jason anderson What 's a mo?..
It's short for mustache.
since when?
😎👍👍. Damn I'm gonna miss watching Mythbusters Those were the days
Thought he was running over shotgun bullets. Man was I excited!
Matthew Niedbala Shells*
Nicolas Perez yeah Ik it was wrong I just couldn't think of the word lol. I live in a rural area too so I should know that.
Matthew Niedbala hey look people getting along very well considering the shit show up there is it better down here
6:26 Also, sometimes by physically testing equations you'll find out there was a factor you forgot to account for that changes your result.
(And on rare occasions nature says "screw your math" and does something completely unexpected. Because life can make numbers messy.)
+the Insane Artist "And on rare occasions nature says "screw your math" and does something completely unexpected." As one of my math teachers learned, when he was giving a demonstration of probability.
"If I flip this coin, there is a 50% chance it will stop on heads, and a 50% chance it will stop on tails." He flipped the coin, and it stopped on its edge. "And a very tiny chance it will do THAT, and blow my lecture to hell."
"Jamie and I do it (get their mental images communicated) through a process we call *arguing*.."
LOL
Adams face during the lawnmower story was priceless.
Thx guys
These guys are like the best R&D proof of concept crew ever. Great show, I'm glad it's still going!
its weird watching these two together when you watched every single mythbusters episode ands yeaaaaaars later you learn that the two dont do together well on a personal level. I always thought they were personal friends..but nope. And rewatcheing them together you notice some vibes..
Its so weird to watch these vids knowing they dont like each other
yeah especially at 7:16
Mr. SpookyPants they don't like each other?
Ryan Haynes They approach problems and think in very different ways, that can be infuriating for some people. Adam has said that they respect each other and worked well together, but that's it, they don't want more time together.
Watch bts of the show,they get pissed and yell and shit....at each other,its really disappointing...
Just imagine them arguing like a married couple. Hilarious!
When I seen Jamie’s “hell mower” and when that giant blade broke and I seen it on the high speed I have no question that the ballistic shield would NOT have stopped that blade. No way. It would’ve killed them after it passed through that shield lol. That was the most dangerous situation I’ve ever seen on the show
I doubt it would've gone fully through, more likely getting stuck inside it, but it certainly could've taken Adam's foot off in the process.
You guys are an incredible team. Your show has been the most entertaining and informative since day one. Whatever path you take, take it together. Your collective efforts are excellent. Thank you for the hours and hours of vicarious experiences.
The relationship between them has always fascinated me. Adam have said in numerous interviews that they are not friends and have never had a meal together. I find it amazing.
I think that relationship, or lack thereof, is part of what made them so successful as a team. They've both said that they're very similar in many ways, while being complete opposites in other ways. On the show, they butted heads numerous times, and even in this video, Adam off-handedly remarked that their primary method of communication was "arguing." I think that had they been friends, those arguments would have eventually boiled over and turned personal, because now you've got an emotional connection, tearing the team apart. Penn & Teller credit their longevity to the same thing, the fact that they are also not really friends.
@@billyeveryteen7328 Well they started closer to friends. Jamie hired Adam several times (including for this show) but both have said they would never work with the other again.
My sister broke her hand from hitting a single rock that somehow managed to fly up and hit her hand on the handle. This was not beside a wall or anything and the mower was rather new. Happened right in the view of 3 of us. So I would say that indeed it was quite dangerous to mow the rocks without safety gear.
1:20 This from the same people who fired a canon ball through a house and a car.
That was so cool,wasn't it?
Jamie is soo pissed close to the end hahahah
nah, just irritated. Jamie doesn't really get pissed unless you endanger him needlessly.
When I was a kid, my mom was mowing the lawn and hit a rock, sending it trough the window and it put a hole in a guitar that was leaning against the wall on the other side of the room. Glad I wasn't at the window, lol.
+Beruka Awwwww that's just mean...
ornages1-2skipafew10 .....
+Beruka Hahaha I really don't those those sexist 'kitchen' or 'sammich' jokes will ever get old. I mean that genuinely, it always seems funny to me!
Hadolf Hitler You only have one testicle, LOL.
CtrlAltPhreak
I hear he has no testicals, and also likes it when men diddle him. Diddle diddle diddle... diiiiiiddle diddle diddle... diiiiiidly diddle diddle...
A lawnmower can launch a rock with enough force that the rock will not only heavily dent, but can almost penetrate the steel quarter panel of a 1972 Ford Gran Torino Sport. That Torino happened to be mine and I was the one who was pushing the mower. Ended up with a big Bondo patch on that car. :-(
Jamie's clever ways to get out of chores were interestingly smart :)
8:45 when you regret making a pun
Yeah - that seemed awkward!
I remember once when I was a little kid, I was working on my treehouse and accidentally knocked off the railing a teeny little jeweler's screwdriver (about two inches long and about 1/8th" thick at the widest). The lawn couldn't be mowed until I found it, for this reason, but besides a general area about 10 feet square, I hadn't the faintest idea where it was. I had to crawl on my hands and knees with my face a few inches over the grass, across the entire damn square in a back-and-forth search patter to find the thing; took me over an hour.
Best thing for finding little hard-to-see metal bits is a phone torch. Move in methodical rows with the torch close to the ground and the metal bit will shine and be easier to see :)
6 min-7 min questions. I think people forget kids and young adults watch this show and they do not know all these things or understand. Excellent show and so on keep up the good work
I miss these guys. Loved Mythbusters!
Dang, I miss these guys. Great energy considering their relationship.
I miss this show. :(
Miss you guys! I hope 2020 puts things in perspective!!!! Merry Christmas!!!!
gona suck when we can only find them here on youtube.
That joke at the end was great! Haha
Please do another series, you guys are awesome.
No mention of what was probably the most dangerous and scary part of the episode, when the Hellmower's blade sheared right off the axle and spun through a ton of dirt without losing much momentum and almost took out one of their camera tripods.
does Jamie's face turn extremely red everytime Adam talks or is it just me? lol love you both guys.
1:04 Aren't these famous last words right up there with "hold my beer, I will show you how its done"?
When I was in the air force I was watching my crew load 25mm ammo that was about to be sent out to the flight line, so I was looking down at the ammo making sure everything was going smoothly while a lawn service was cutting the grass a good 15 yards outside of the bay I was in, and there were 4 trailers loaded with 25mm between us and the mower. All the sudden out of nowhere my head got knocked back hard enough to make me stumble a bit, the mower hit a rock that flew up and over those trailers and into the bay and hit me right above my right eyebrow. At first I just looked down at the ground looking for whatever hit me thinking "what the hell was that?!", then I realized I had blood pouring out of my head so I told everyone to shut it down because they were completely unaware anything had just happened due to all of the noise in the bay. Not gonna lie though it was kind of funny watching everyone freak out, my main concern was not getting blood on my uniform 😂. But I am convinced that if I wasn't look down at that ammo and looking straight forward instead, then that rock would have taken my eye out. Close call!
So the moral of this story...don't be an idiot when you're mowing around people or anything you don't want to break. Keep the mower turned towards a safe direction! You would think this would be common sense but if a man working for a professional lawn service didn't have the sense to do it, maybe it's not so common!
one REAL show left on discovery, love it.
I wish that Discovery would release all the Mythbuster episodes that are not currently out on a new set of DVDs. Ultimate Mythbuster, Mythbuster vs Jaws, Car Drop, Boarding a Plane, etc etc.
Or just simply Mythbusters Season 1, 2, 3, etc. I loved the show in the early 2000's. Last time I watched the show was on Hulu a couple of years ago. They started at something like season 10 or 11, and went to the end. That was great because I hadn't seen most of them, but I was wanting to see from where I had left off which was about season 5 or 6.
@@FlanylShirtman We were lucky and bought the DVDs as they came out. It would be nice if Discovery kept them available, wouldn't it? Unfortunately I tried to find a way to get in contact with SOMEONE at Discovery and failed.
"You've got to communicate what's in your head to other people. Jamie and I do it through a process we call... arguing!"
My friend got hit by a rock flung from a lawn mower, and lost a quarter of his brain. He literally doesn’t sleep now.
I feel you're frustration Adam, its pretty damn obvious why you make visual representations of physics in motion: #1 Its awesome and instructional #2 a visually enhanced version of scaling physics in motion #3 who not?
I was coming home from school when one of the windows of the Bus violently broke apart, we found out that about 100 to 110ft away a farmer was mowing with a high powered lawnmower and somehow hit a rock in such a strange angle, that it wasn't stopped by the safety cover.
+Julian Fischer That is some impressive velocity... I'm glad no one got hit by that rock.
I almost lost my eye to a flying stone from a lawnmower. The only reason I'm not blind in my right eye is because I started wearing glasses the day before, although the force of the stone still completely bent my glasses and made a 1cm deep gash between my eyebrow and my eye. Lots of blood, and it doesnt take much imagination to figure out what could have happened.
I will totally have to try Jamie's ideas when I am landscaping this summer..
With the falling penny: If I recall correctly Jamie chewed Adam out for that very analog demonstration of the mathematical concept. Looks like he changed his tune over time!
As I lawnmower mechanic I approve of this.
14 years. Mythbusters went on for 14 years. And we still barely cracked the mystery of the Jamie Hynemann. I’m convinced that dude is an immortal being and has stories from the seige of Constantinople
Try mowing over pinecones. They hurt.
2:09 LMFAO!! that's the best thing I have seen in a while!! :D
My lawnmower anecdote has to do with being terribly allergic to grass pollen, and having undiagnosed asthma, and being called a shirker for not wanting to mow the lawn... so mowing it anyway. That was before baggers, so I had to rake the lawn as well. I'm okay now. 😁
Love Adams answer to the question.
I worked for a Landscaping company for 3 years and accidentally knocked my boss unconscious with a rock flung out the front of the mower I was using. He needed 8 stitches an inch above his eye.
Could be worse. Hope he was ok and I hope he didn’t take it out on you, it was (hopefully) an accident
People saying "why don't you just do the math to figure out?" I have something to ask you: Do you like MythBusters? Do you want an episode of, "Hi, we are the MythBusters, and according to our calculations, this is not possible... bye."
ah this show was so fun to watch :D
Jamie, I need to buy your Diabolical Mower from Hell!!
I nearly had what could easily have been a fatal accident from a thrown rock while mowing a hay field with an 8 foot wide John Deere disc mower. The tractor, by design, had no doors or windows and only two vertical steel beams with a fiberglass roof forming the Roll Over Protective Structure(ROPS). At one point, while i was watching the mower over my shoulder, a stone larger than a softball was thrown from the underside of the mower directly towards me. Fortunately, it struck the right ROPS beam but it hit with such force that it made the entire roof and ROPS structure ring like a bell.
The best is when you have a 'bagger' mower, so the rocks occasionally explode through the bag, and hit you. Directly in the family jewels. :'D
at least you had a riding one, Imagine you had to do that with a push mower
I miss this show 😞
Street sweeper+golf ball size river rocks=broken ankles at the bus stop
I think adam brings up a huge detail about being able to see to understand and my 18 years of schooling has taught me just the same, once I hit my sophomore year I entered a votech school which focuses on hands in activity I had learn and understood more in my 3 years at that school the my entire schooling career.
My dad had a bark chip go through his cheek from this.
I've had half a mower blade snap off the commercial lawnmower I was using and get stuck in the side of a building... that was from just running over a metal stake in the ground. It also twisted the crankshaft.
My best friend accidentally mowed over a coat hangar that was in tall grass. It broke off a 2" piece of wire and it went through her calf muscle. The wire was stuck in the middle of her leg so I took her to the hospital. The ER doctor said it was a "spider bite" and would not X-ray it. I took her to a second hospital and she was in surgery two hours later.
the pun was the best bit :-)
that joke at the end Jamie is like WTF does that mean. also I am like what kind of odd dad joke is that.
I got hit in the eye with a rock while mowing the rocky part of my lawn and somehow managed to close my eye right before it hit. I must have just happened to blink a split second beforehand.
I work for a mowing company, not sure about others, but we have had several instances where people have blown out windows with rocks from the mowers. Car windows, house windows.
Why build a model? Experimentation on a small scale is usually one of the best ways to iron out potential problems that would be catastrophic on a large scale.
Dewey
What is this, an experiment for ANTS?!?!
but ... why Male Models ?
This and dirty jobs where the best shows on Discovery
got to love these guys! ^_^
Jamies dad after watching this: "oh that little shit"
"yknow of your smart you check for rocks" yknow the water level raises rocks right? Anything over an acre and a half it gets hard as hell to find every single rock especially if its what your geo. area is based off of
danger aside.. we had to cut our deck off to make our 6 foot mower mow correctly. it was very dangerous and we NEVER thought about doing anything dangerous.. we spent our time just trying to be safe... i dont think any of us ever thought of these things... we did a million pranks but never with equipment.. we never even thought of it.. we cut hundreds of acres of orchards and hay yearly
Really miss this show.😣
I used the spark plug thing a few times in the late 80s!
Bad form yo. The first guy to drink Mercury felt safe, I'm sure.
I was moving the lawn at my parents using a riding lawn mower. The neighbor left a crowbar in the grass on in my parents yard. Im driving around and boom. the mower dies and the crowbar is thrown from my parents yarn over the street and into the yard across the street.
to each his own i guess. good video!
I can relate to Jaime so much sometimes
Through a process called arguing 😂😂😂😂
I love the look on Adam when the people repeatedly ask "why did you build *this* instead of just show it with math"
he looks like he just wants to scream REALLY!!!!??!?!? hmm hour long show filled with cool projects and impressive visuals or a 10 second clip with a math formula.
OUR JOB IS ENTERTAINMENT DUMBASSES!!!!
that is what adam was really trying to say
God I feel like Jamie is so mirthless and Adam is just like trying not to bust up constantly and as a result is always responsible for pumping up the energy of the segments and it makes me so sad for him lol
Jamie's done everything twice before steven segal even thought about it. .
