Title: mythbusters
Post by: joannaingram84 on May 18, 2011, 12:36:46 am: Any Mythbusters fans out there? I love the show and Adam is my favorite Buster. If you could have them bust any myth what would you want to be tested? Remember when they busted the myth that Christmas lights can't start a fire on real Christmas trees? I wonder what would happen if they tested this myth on artificial Christmas trees. And one step farther, how about when they used candles to light Christmas trees did that cause fires and if they did how did they prevent houses from burning down?

He was watching the other day when they were using a pig stomach to try to bust a myth about mentos and coke making a guys stomach rupture. They busted that one. err....not the stomach, the myth. Well, they did bust the stomach but it wasn't the way the myth claimed.

I completely agree, and it was hilarious when Adam burned one of his eyebrows and half his hair off. xD

I've only seen it a few times.... and I was SHOCKED to see that they were going to duplicate Nikola Tesla's "Earthquake Machine" on live television.... but then was disappointed when they DELIBERATELY steered away from Tesla's actual design!!! They may have proved that the "theory" was plausable.... but whithout "sticking to the plans".... they "proved" nothing!!! I dont really BLAME them.... I was just disappointed!!!
