    There's a lot of Mythbusters I missed, back in the TV days, so I'm so, so happy that it's becoming available here. Better TV is hard to find, and scientific!

      @bertjesklotepino 8 місяців тому

      Did you notice me saying "Sir" at the beginning of my comment?
      So may i ask you in what sense i was rude, sir?
      Just because i think someone is delusional does not mean i am being rude, or does it?
      And as for the rest of your comment about this "show", sure, it is more scientific then many other things. I would agree to that.
      BUT it also is not that scientific as we would have liked it to be.
      For example: Mr Savage said on podium infront of cameras that they were not allowed to dive into certain myths relating to an event that took place roughly 22.5 years ago.
      They also were not completely fair with another "show" they produced regarding a certain landing on a certain rock in space.
      That aside.... it is a great "show". And sure, they did include a lot of science.
      But they also had to keep secret certain science for certain obvious reasons.
      I hope we can agree on some of the above.
      And sir, it never was my intention to be rude.
      Keep in mind: i am a dutch guy trying to type stuff in english.
      You try it in dutch and let me then give you my opinion. :)
      Only kidding sir.

      @@bertjesklotepino clearly, he means scientific for a tv show, obviously we know what is scientific, you don’t have to be a killjoy okay? And specifically by saying “sir”, you made your statement more in line with sarcasm which people tend to take as offensive. The guy is just stating that he/she loves the show, and for all it matters it does contain science for average people to understand and enjoy. You explanation makes you look more like a smart ass, the fact that you don’t make your own comment to criticize the show and come here to judge other people’s opinions, if that’s not rude, what is? It’s a fact that this show is not all science, in this episode, the team could just crunch numbers and prove everything using math and physics. Do you know another fact? That would make a shitty ass tv show.

    I think the basis of the bird cliff drop is the fact that you are waiting on a NATURAL rock edge, and the bird dropping on your car shifts enough rock under the car that it slides off... They only ever used sharp edges for their tests, which bugs me... When we fans said we wanted an actual cliff, we also meant an actual cliff edge!

    Actually, the cliffhanger myth is confirmed: the last bird that tipped it is the one that counts, all the previous ones were just fixing imperfectly balanced car, moving its center of gravity to the edge, which is what mythbusters should have done but failed to do.

      @derGameplayDJ 10 місяців тому +1

      First of all, there ARE DVDs out there, but (according to other people's comments) those have the TV version on them, which is 6-7 minutes shorter (per episode) than the full version, you're watching right now.
      Second of all, the owner(s) of this channel purchased the rights for Mythbusters, so they probably got copies of the original material.

    if dropping only the last bird is what makes the car tip then one bird literally did make the car tip, they just did a shit job of balancing the car (despite finding the point of balance beforehand!??) and it needed more ballast to move the balance point far enough forwards

    • @TheFatVeganOne
      @TheFatVeganOne 7 місяців тому

      Yeah I thought that, you'd think they'd have noticed it during shooting and mentioned why it was further back.
      Only thing I can think of is they didn't want the wind up there to throw off the experiment, but it's already done that by forcing them to balance the car further back.

  • @weldeddaydreams
    @weldeddaydreams 10 місяців тому +8

    Ok but it did take only one bird to tip the car - the last one. If you were balanced at that point, and a bird landed, that would do it. 700 pounds of bird is no different than 690 pounds of car and 10 pounds of bird.

  • @77AxelF
    @77AxelF 6 місяців тому

    I guess it didn't occur to them that balancing the car the other way around with the back over the edge and the heavy motor over solid ground would have given them a much longer lever.

    @floyd8740 7 місяців тому

    one of the stupidest episodes, of what is ordinarily a great show.
    Any object, limo or otherwise, will "tip" or fall over an edge, if it's centre-of-mass is forward of the fulcrum. Obviously, you can change the relative location of the CoM by adding or subtracting an object.
    So yes, if you had the limo perfectly balanced, then the addition of any mass forward of the fulcrum would cause it to fall.
    So, once again, mythbusters has failed to test a proposition, simply because they weren't able to achieve the correct setup
