Mad respect for officially posting these episodes on YouTube 👍

I am glad the full episodes of this series were made available on YouTube. This show helped me and my brothers get interested in math and engineering.

One problem with the driving in the dark mith. Is the fact a smuggler would memorize the route. They would probably travel the same route multiple times before teying to smuggle somthing over the boarder.

There was an incident that made the news in Atlanta a few years ago. A police department set up a speed check on the interstate. They picked up a few moderately over the limit, but they picked up one going something like 160 MpH that they couldnt see. So the did the same thing for s couple more nights snd pocked up the same speed with no lights. So they did it sgain and set up a roadblock a couple miles fown the road. Turns out it was a drug runner droving a sports car (don't remember which one) ehere the driver eas using night vision goggles.

Just when I needed some familiar comfort, I can now watch old episodes whenever I want. Thank you to whoever did this.

They forgot to account for the vessel volume in the displacement against water. For an air-air displacement it wouldn't have been a problem but for two gases/liquids with different densities it does.
Also, in the pressure cooker, the amount of water is the limiting factor preventing calcium bicarbonate from turning into CO2

When I was a child, I thought that they were actually talking about maple syrup smuggling due to wanting to dodge import taxes or something

I am happy they did something with MythBusters after they abandoned the IP, I did not think they would do anything with it after they did force Allen Pan to give up the name when he did own it 100% legally. It seems it not who's right but how much money you have, But they did something good out of something bad, so i will give them that.

Thank you all the Mythbusters for the wonderful memories sitting with my dad and brothers watching and learning from you guys!

Ya know whats interesting; this really doesn't look that dated. This is 15yrs old and looks like it could be on TV or streaming today. The resolution and editing look current to me. 15yrs before this??? Watch a show from 1994, crazy difference

If you had some current NV, you could drive way better than they did with those.
Also, it's going to be a lot brighter driving outside at night than it is in a blacked out building.

RIP Jessi and Grant. You will be missed.

That maple syrup looks suspiciously green and the leaves look a bit too thin. 😁

[kyledarnell]

I can only imagine how much psi that firetruck pump was adding to the sealed bag compared to the antacid reaction .
