Crushing a Car with the Domino Effect | MythBusters Jr.

Cannan, Rachel, and Jesse investigate chain reactions and the most famous of them all: the domino effect. They create an experiment if each successive domino is larger than the previous one, can a chain reaction of toppling tiles end in a car-crushing catastrophe?

2:14 "On a ~*kEy*~ mythbusting skill"

[greenredblue]

I love how the _moment_ Adam said “all safeties are off” he unnecessarily walked through the rig and almost tripped

[TrainfanJanathan]

Those dominos in the movie "Robots" were so satisfying.

[matthewho]

3:13 he's a college sophomore? I thought he was a 5th grader

[MLGxBXRxPRO]

Scotty kilmer probably woke up afraid and shooken up from a deep sleep when the mr2 was crushed

[gamingsherlock]

4:14 Adam: I FOUND A TOOL!

Adam is like a kid on Christmas day with these experiments

[slhines]

It is unfortunate they crushed a rare & classic MR2:(

[thekingofcardboard]

I just realized: Adam is doing probably one of the most dangerous jobs he's ever done, now without his partner, and keeping an eye on a bunch of children. That's kind of awesome.

[pllepolle]

They could've chosen any damn car, like some stupid old Opel astra, yet they chose a classic MR2... Seriously..

[Tazpar]

Wtf I grew up learning everything from myth busters. Now some random child actors who don’t know who Adam Savage is are getting to be myth busters. Smh

[Marine-ojmx]

I had an MR2 just like that one. Damn what a waste.

[GalenlevyPhoto]

Could have chose to use something not rare, uncool car. Poor MR2

[eldergod]

Poor mr2 ): even tho it probably wasnt running or something

[sudhanshkhatri]

literally everyone in the comments talking about them using an mr2 for the car

[Metalmanxdamnit]

I know a car that deserved that fate. A 1999 Ford Taurus.

[awindaphilip]

Crushing a human with the Domino Effect.

[lakinduanuhas]

As a car guy poor MR2, as a scientist great work

[tigerfong]

Prelude, Integra, now the MR2? No JDM vehicle is safe from mythbusters

[ryanmarshall]

This is cool!! Bummer an mr2 was squished but still really neat

[ventonburste]

The problem was the distance to place the dominoes apart was based on specific centers of gravity, but the way in which you increased the weight of the final one completely altered said variable.
