"Thor, the God of Thunder, is trying to enter my building!"
🤣🤣🤣I think Jamie is going need a thunderstorm, or a tornado, or a hurricane.🤣🤣🤣
“With enough noise to wake the police chief in the next state.”🤣🤣🤣
I start to laugh whenever I remember about this scene lol
I've been looking for that clip for AGES! It was on YT for a while, but at some point it disappeared.
“Somebody needs to check that air conditioner!”
"Jamie do you think this is a practical way to get up a vent?"
"...........Nope."
Hahahaha
Here’s some key phrases from the surreptitious entry heist manual;
“Be the Hurricane.”
“As loud as Krakatoa.”
“The Footfall of Godzilla.”
That clip of Jamie starting his vent climb is an absolute classic.
At 32:13 you can hear Grant's laugh from his monitoring center as they manage to open the door. He always looked like he was having so much fun making this show.
RIP Grant
16:03 is easily one of the funniest moments in Mythbusters history. 🤣
Yup lol, I will never not laugh at the whole sequence of Jamie climbing the ducts.
Just the pure earrape i had to endure was enough to make me laugh😂😂
I laugh so hard till I can't breathe, thanks to Jamie and super magnets 😂😂
11:41 heres another
I'm crying
40:48 Jamie's face is priceless! 😅😆🤣
And Adam's a nutter for attempting to climb that building like that, even with a proper safety rig...
easily one of the best and funniest episodes, especially when both teams work together
RIP Grant. Thanks for still entertaining me until this day (:
Wait... What?... Grant Imahara died?
How have I not seen this comment on every Mythbusters upload over the last six months?
@@C.Fecteau-AU-MJ13 Sadly, he passed away in 2020.
@@Tairusiano Yeah I know, from Sterling Archer's second biggest fear... a brain aneurysm.
He was a corrupt security guard.
@@C.Fecteau-AU-MJ136 months? Where have you been? He died in 2020
Grant never missed an opportunity to do his evil villain laugh 😂There's one episode where they're making a box to put Grant in and burry him in sand and even then he looks at it after Tori has built it and he does his evil villain laugh even though it's himself who's gonna be in the sand box hahaha. Miss you Grant!
"YOU CAN'T KILL ME I'M SUCTION CUP MAN!" - Suction Cup Man
12:05 "hehehe that's awful"
This is definitely one of the "Top 10 Most Iconic Episodes of MythBusters"
I love the American accent sometimes. "From meer, to meer, to meer, to meer" 🤣
I think it's Kari's Californian accent.
I like the way English people say “bottle of water” How tf do they call themselves English when they can’t even speak the damn language 😂 My face looks a lot like that one Ice Cube meme when I try to decipher the sounds they make
@@danwarrjack bo'le o wo'ah
@@danwarrjack oh you are going to love Scottish accents, then 😂
@@danwarrjack its called a glottal stop and it is for efficiency, when you speak the language for centuries you find shortcuts. i hear americans do it all the time, but most of you are not at that level yet :p
16:52 "Heh, I'm okay"
That is the most emotional response that Jamie ever made on Mythbusters 😂😂
10:07 That looked legitimately painful, but also amused the hell out of me
I really appreciate the fact that in these new uploads there's a lot of extra footage here and there that I've never seen before...
These are the British version for the BBC so not cut for adverts.
@@junglesairsoftblog6311 I thought the british version had a different narrator?
@@NathanBenedict45 They had for a while, but it was replaced by the american audience narrator at some point.

Adam Savage: the original Suction Cup Man
dude I was wondering if someone mentioned it LOL
@@itsyasoph he didnt play guitar though 😂
16:03 Solid Snake couldn't make it better
11:40 Oh, this is so cool!
16:05 That's probably just the wind.
Adam has got a great big pair off hairy balls to do that building climb!!
Is adam kind of like Sampson?? Where if someone shaves his nuts he loses all his powers?? 😂
Vertical climbing at 23 story high, you need really good cardio and strength to pull that off, it's not something that an average person can do 😂
@@Ryan_the_dawg wtf...
Jamie and Adam both would've been quieter scaling that vent if they'd carved out handholds with a drill and jigsaw.
Some of their explosion myths were a lot quieter...
4:15 kari in the background like, what are fingers man?!?
I thought she was checking her phone before realizing that smartphones weren't widespread yet.
She just watched Vsauce
It looks like she is checking a lesion on her hand.
I feel like it might be a tiny snake
I Love debunking movie myths. The idea of the climb on the build was cool.
27:10 - Mere to mere to mere to mere to mere 😂
21:41 back in the day i was praying for a remake of that scene with kari
"That's awful." got me hahahhaha
37:00 kinda makes sense when you know Adam wears hearing aids full time now.
Not really a surprise, considering how much noisy stuff they did on the show and probably before and after as well.
I miss this time, slow television so nice to watch and easy on the eyes!
What always annoyed me about the suction cup, is that they only cut inside the surcumferance of the suction cup, and not around it.
The cup isn't for yanking out the surrounding disk, but apply the suction with the mini-pump when the cup is seated. The inner disk is thus popped-out.
If you're pulling on an outer disk you're also risking pulling and shattering the entire pane. The surrounding suction disk on the other hand is clamped and stabilizing the surrounding glass while the suction itself is doing all the work of popping out the inner disk.
Then, as Jamie demonstrated (with the broken-up hole) you reach through the little hole and open the inner door handle.
@@-danR makes me think that holding the to-be-cut-out disk with the suction cup, then cutting around it through the entire glass pane. No sudden break, cust a clean cut through.
16:25: To quote Tvtropes, more like, "be the blow. Heavy as a tank. The footfall of Optimus Prime." :P
God I waste way too much time on there.
@@uknownhero2764 Amen to that fact

I loved the series as a kid, it´s awesome i can see all the episodes again
12:45 laughing at that poor dude who accidentally stepped in the frame
…you mean the guy that was just working at the back? If you rewind two seconds more you see he’s just working.
@@xMRxLAMAx ua-cam.com/video/FXoc6Y0qX54/v-deo.html
Watching Mythbusters makes me feel like a kid again...
“With Superman like strength” Always loved that line 😂
Dean Caine hauling himself up with Superman like strength- that sure made me smile.
This is my favorite episode 🤣🤣🤣
1. Jamie is fucking funny, the serious aura and goofiness he has is perfectly hilarious 😂
2. Adam and Jamie don't hate each other that much, it's just they are the opposite of each other but they get along well
"That's awful" 😂
One of the episodes where Grant is somewhat the main character of the episode 😂
Yes there is, watching me chew the gum😂😂😂
10:06 LOL!
Adam could not stop getting hurt.
Yes!!! finally!!! I was waiting for this episode! It's one of my favorites...
As Superman said to the would be cat burglar - Something's wrong with the elevator? 😅 Superman, the movie. 😅😅 Busted!😅😅
Classic episode.
probably one of their best episodes ever.
🎵Catherine Zeta-Joooooones, she dips beneath the laseeeeers. Oooooooh!🎵
🎵She entraps meeeee, and Sean Conneryyyyyyy. Oooooooh!🎵
Mmmm Catherine zeta jones can do whatever she wants and it should work, even physics be simping for her 😂😂
So in order to break in and steal your target you have to
- be a world-class freeclimber
- have a mirror frame on finely-adjustable stilts
- night vision goggles
- a friend outside who will disable electricity for 30-60 seconds to cut off the lasers for the reset
This is one of my favourite episodes of Mythbusters
Tile diamond tile hole drill bit would work on glass !
This the funniest episode of them 4 together
I always thought the point of the magnets in the air ducts, like the lights on the sides in the clip would indicate, were electromagnets, and thus you wouldn't get a massive "KUNG" when you stuck it on, but could place it against the metal and then turn it on to make it stick. It probably still wouldn't have been quiet by any means, but it's always bugged me that they tested permanent magnets when the example clip clearly used electromagnets.
Also isn't the point of the suction cup to stick to only the part you want to pull out so that you can, y'know, pull it out? By making the circle smaller than the suction cup, you're pulling on all the glass surrounding the circle as well, meaning that circle's going nowhere! I always thought they should stick the suction cup on, cut around it, and then pull.
you can make the magnets a lot quieter. but the act of placing them against any vent will make a hell of a lot of noise. adam showed this. his system was still loud due to the very act of moving around
@@group555_ I think to reduce noise a better option would be 2 pointy sticks. Running them across to opposite corners would greatly cut down on noise, most of which comes from flexing the giant flat sections.
"This might be the realm of cartoons" Adam spent his whole time on the show, and I suspect most of his life trying to be Daffy Duck.
9:07
_"The plan is to scale a wall with these suction cups..."_
*JLaserVideo has entered the chat.*
36:27 whats the episode of the listening post called?
I feel like NVG's would work against a real world system, as they all use infrared and so does a a NVG headset, on top of that it needs to be a completely dark room though, at the end of the day you are looking trough a camera and all cameras do some kind of "brightness balance" to not oversaturate, wich in this case made it so that the holes in the walls drowned out the little bit of IR in the red lasers.
Thanks for uploading another one of the best episodes! 👍
My favorite episode!
21:55 I think a vape would work much better at that nowadays
Lovely how the safety system usually trips the system.
Grant got "Safe" or "Sorry"...😂😅
Before I started at my current job, they were robbed during a weekend. Someone managed to sneak in via the downstairs restaurants vents, stole a few laptops, and got out the same way. I can tell you that the low value of those laptops cannot have been worth the smell of those oily ass ducts.
32:23 is he serious? i've done it myself, glass cutter is real. this is the biggest joke i've heard. you just have to cut multiple times, you can't do it in one circle, but you can do it in mulitple and instead of tapping with solid object, put some cloth between and gently tap. it takes much longer than in movies, but it's 100% possible as i have done it myself. probably took me 2-3 minutes, i cut the circle several times and put more pressure on it, then put suction cup in middle and start tapping on the cup itself, it'll eventually pop out perfectly.
6:33 these are the jedi of the metal world
The suction cup method of getting through the glass could have worked but they did it wrong. The cups were far larger than the circle they cut. A better technique would have been to suction the cup to the glass then cut around it, then pull. Although with it being laminated, well that might have caused some issues anyway.
The mirror setup was interesting, but it basically requires a break in the system. Like a moment where the beam is off for some reason. But then they could obviously just pass during that moment.
What about glass fibers? Bending the beam.
a glass fibre would still face the same main issue. it would be easier to set up but it won't work unless you get both ends aligned with the sender and receiver in less time than it takes the sensor to realise it's been broken. they have the essentially both slide into place perfectly in sync.
the alternative would be blocking less probably less than a mm and then aligning the other side with the same amount and repeat this till you have the whole thing covered.
human just aren't precise enough or quick enough to redirect it
@@group555_ if the two sides of the gap are adjustable, you could close the gap to flush when you are getting in place and then move them apart so you can pass through.
This is a great episode
32:06 thats what she said😂
10:07 Straight out of a cartoon movie
I have a stupid idea how to climb went without noise 😂 tiny stool, sheet from plastic or wood but it must hold your weight, and then expanding construction foam which will be poured through hole in that sheet. The foam expands and hardens, slowly lifting you up 😂 gosh, would love to try that! It might harden too fast and won't allow more to be poured under, or it will seal the hole with no way out back. But would be fun.
If the duct is slim enough, you could just wedge yourself in. Back on one side, hands and feet on the other. Might need gloves for enough grip, but that should work.
If it's wider, one foot and one hand on one side, the other food and hand on the other.
Oh I had those visible laser alarm toys as a kid
Kari makes ”mirror” a one syllable word
I'm to this day surprised they didn't go for electro magnets. That's what Colin Furze did with his magnet boots and it's probably going to be quieter. Power will be a challenge though.
A thought to increase efficiency, pump the algae through clear tubes to increase light interaction, and increase air flow through the tanks
4:15 What is Kari doing on the lower right corner? The more I try to make sense of what she is doing, the more questions I have. Why is she looking at her hand like that? Why is she slightly jiggling her hand like that? Is she losing vision? If she is trying to see something, why is she in the dark? So many questions.
I hope the didnt inspire any robbers with this 😂
Kinda surprised they didn't try electromagnets instead of permanent ones. Might be quieter
The power supply would be impractical
34:12 Adding to the "Kari & Tory are in love" rumors
I was thinking "oh were they having an affair? Kari is married and has a child? "
@@popytkpisatel Kari went on record saying that they were more like brother and sister than anything else, and nothing romantic ever happened between them.
I'm surprised Adam is alive after all those head trauma throughout the years
YESSSSSS THIS IS ONE OF THEIR BEST EPISODES HOLY SHIT
@22:59, i was laughing, then I suddenly realized, That Grant is no more, R.I.P. man, :(
can you guys try the magnets one with electro magnetism
i thought that they would use electric magnets, but tbh it's kinda better this way because otherwise i wouldn't laugh so fucking hard
Is this first time we see Adam's wife in show?
Probably only time, and it wasn't in the US cut. Adam is very private about his wife and children, AKA Mrs. Don't-Try-This, Thing 1 and Thing 2.
I’ve been waiting to see this one
for some reason this game reminds me of one of the old medal of honor games.
Catherine Zeta Jones, she dips beneath lasers whooao
what about electro magnetic?
I don't know how you feel - but i have the feeling that they don't just tell the myths ?!
For the gum, maybe they should have used one with sugar like Hubba Bubba. And for the lasers, they should use a smoke machine.
Taping the knife to the sensor worked in the end. And the movie scene looked like the gum did the same. But gum is simply too soft to stay together.
And it only has to hold until the burglers are out and away. Sure, the super stealthy heist that only gets discovered the next day is impressive, but it doesn't have to stay that long.
but in the video the guy had an electromagnetic grip. it would be silently to put on, then activate it ?
I'll smudge your windows all I want! Look at me go!
the airduckt would be way silenter if they usesd electromagnets so the magnets could be placed slowly and silently on a wall and then activated
There is a new tone to these videos where it’s “obviously stupid” to even think the idea of these things could work in any scenario.
Strange that I have been seeing far more media like this as if there is an actual effort to obfuscate readily available information/ideas.
9:25 Way better than Hawk Tuah.
why should lasers be easly defeated?
you could make them pulse in an unpredictable pattern, and measure the time of flight
Yeah, a PRNG would work just fine as long as both ends are using the same seed they will produce the same sequence but it is so long and so chaotic that without knowing that seed in advance you can't predict it. Could even make this different for every laser so that even if you had a few hours of compute time on a supercomputer to try and brute force the seed in only gets you past that one and that would still take some serious luck if the seed is large enough. Granted if someone can hack the system and steal the seeds somehow you are boned but then again if someone manages to get that kinda access they could also turn the system off entirely. But the system controlling something like this ought to be air gapped and have physical security policies in place to protect against tampering but if you are investing in a security system like this and don't have at least one cybersecurity expert at least consulting on the design of the backend to ensure that it is not vulnerable to physical or software attacks on the backend you would be asking to fail. That is not to say that it doesn't happen far too often if the amount of time we end up getting called asking for help investigating breeches after the fact is anything to go by.
They're such good sports though
Sometimes mythbuster host are selfish. Rather give a professional more adept candidate to do some "testing " , to give the myths a better chance. Adam definitely not going to climb 23 stories
"the suction cup didn't work for the hole we cut. Could it be because the cup was 2 times the size of that hole not smaller than it like in every single depiction ever? naah, that can't be it. It's totally busted!"
"infrared lasers are impossible because you can't see them. What, night vision goggles? Yeah we use the expensive light amplification ones instead of the cheap infra red ones, you know, the ones that shine infra red light and make it visible, night vision is night vision right, how could the other type help with infra red lasers?"
I think that was the episode that made me lose all respect for any scientific value of the myth busters all those years back.
Still entertaining, mind you, but entirely useless to deduce the truth value of a myth
lol a cheap webcam with ir filter removed would show the beam
