When I was young, I thought Adam was the enthusiastic mad scientist and maker in comparison to Jamie's quiet, moderating presence. Now that I'm a scientist and engineer, it's clear Jamie was the quiet mad scientist and inventor to Adam's enthusiastic but ultimately moderating presence.
The thing about mythbusters that i love is that they never claimed to be scientists. Jamie, Adam and the B team really expanded my view on science outside of just lab coats and ancient pictures of inventors in a science book and pretty much gave me a whole new way to look at my world.
Yes! People complain about shoddy methodology or measurments or whatever they did wrong any given episode but the main takeaway is that it basically instilled scepticism, the scientific method and so much more in a fun, exciting way to children/teenagers. It's not until rewatching old episodes that I realized how big an impactthis show had on my outlook on the world. Also I remember I did a spudgun out of carton that you loaded with body spray gas probably based on one of theirs.
27:38 Don't ever climb into an old tank or fairly airtight space with no ventilation. There is likely no oxygen but toxic gasses. As the air just sits there, chemicals process like rust or paint gassing off, will use up all the oxygen. You will pass out and die. This happens on very large ships, where there are confined, unvented spaces crew need to get into. In 2017 three workers died of asphyxiation after inhaling chemicals that were used in preserving the wood in the ship. Happened in a port in Oman.
@ZzaimonixX if someone puts full time work into a channel, and it isn't just a string of played out pop culture soundbytes with disney/Pixar clips with no commentary, they deserve every cent. There's a reason why people like markiplier and dazgaming can make a living from it
I'm from Russia. Mythbusters show came into my life in my 20s and I had the absolute ball watching them. I adore Jamie's grandpa personality as much as I adore Adam's chaotic energy and fun, which pretty reminds me one of my uncle.
@@theothertonydutch bruv... why? Not all ppl living in russia are the same, there are good people who were forced into hiding, because majority is bloodthirsty, ignorant hypocrites, yes. keep politics out of mythbusters, just for the sake of our collective childhood, please.. :[
Im glad to hear that side of Tori and Jamie, about talking in public or in front of a camera isnt easy and most days its like their brains and mouth arent connected. Kari also mentioned it and its good to know its more normal than i thought because i feel like that often. Thinking about what you are saying while saying it is sometimes difficult.
Jaime and Adam helped raise very intelligent "nerds" and made it cool/accepting in a way never dreamed of before. I stopped being ashamed of my intelligence and curiosity in dorky sci-fi things. Ultimately, Adam and Jaime gave this Nerd a backbone. Now I LOVE trying new things, and making up crafty was to fix my problems when working with my "art" (Gundam Dioramas)
Man, I loved the show, but now I notice how part of Adam's "approach" to being in TV was just being mean to Jamie. Asking to clean the place or to leave his stuff alone are completely valid requests.
Poor Adam. Honestly once you’ve touched enough electric fencers it won’t bug you that much. Quick shock. Still my all time favourite show as a kid. Never could wait for next weeks episode. :)
Jamie seems like a really weird guy (which I am too so no hate). Much weirder than Adam, just in different ways that maybe don't come across to people who don't know him. To me it feels like Adam really gets him and tries to help Jamie in his own weird and chaotic ways
For me watching this show in highschool. it was like a better version of the classroom. Always quirky but still had its we work for fun out of a garage to see what happens kind of feel.
First bits feel like bloopers. Then it just feels like people fucking with each other to the point of upset and anger and then trying to one up the other's anger until they've had enough and get separated
I was nine years old in 2008, I loved them as a child even though I didn't understand some of the puns and jokes back then. Now I love them more than ever
I mean ppl are always a piece of work no matter who you are, the important thing is to respect each other and learn to work along, I love e those two equally
The thing with the cattle fence is. You don't wire them up like that. Only 1 wire goes to the fence. The other goes to Earth in the group. So there's a massive resistor between you and completing the full circuit. I touch electric fences in the field. As it's quicker than going to see if the box is On or Off. I wouldn't want to try holding both wires directly. That's going to hurt a lot more. ⚡💥😱
As AuDHD now I know I don't have a little angel and demon on my shoulders, it's Jamie and Adam, choosing if I need to break something or bore somebody with my longs talks. Sometimes doing both at the same time No wonder I loved this show as a teen🤣
Why is there no Grant here , he was there around some of the clips shown i think ?, and why is Scotty clearly featuring but she is not adressed further ?

38:26 Oh c'mon Kari, that didn't sound like a sarcasm at all. I mean we've been there (guys), a guy, bike and two hot girls. Something bad ought to happen. :) But to me it felt the same way as when they betrayed Adam.
Ho god I was like "Nice excuse to try not to feel guilty" or maybe she really thought it was sarcasm but as we all know, girls and sarcasm are not sleeping in the same bed. (No sexism, I've seen a woman once)
@BrunodeSouzaLino No, Kari joined as a Build team member in 2003, Tori in 2004, and Grant in 2005. They were all promoted in 2006 to B team presenters.
I find it incredible that not many seem to pick up that jamie is on the spectrum mainly far as i can see Asperger's, Edit: (though ive just seen in the newer comments theyve mentioned it) while he does have his moments emotionally he was rather mute and grounded, by what adam said later on they really didnt get along that great at all and jamie wasnt particularly intrested in participating in the show when discovery approached them. Im just glad they did otherwise a whole generation would. Have been thick as planks thanks to our school systems world wide!
if Adam was less of a person, the show wouldnt make it past season 1. As much as I love Jamie, it seems hes a bit hard to work with when it comes to just fooling around
I actually feel ...off now watching adam and jamie "laughing" together, because we recently found out that they didn't actually like each other when they worked together :( lol
I mean, they still laughed together at times. People are taking those comments WAY to the extreme. They've said that they still were good coworkers, just not friends. I have coworkers I like working with, that are not friends, I think everyone knows some people like that.
And you learned it wrong. I feel like Adam will spend the rest of his life debunking this. As Adam has said many times, he has the utmost respect for Jamie, but they were just work colleagues.
Not liking to work with each other doesn't mean they hated each other. You can dislike working practices for example, but still have good time off-work, etc, and vice versa. Not liking to work with somebody doesn't equate them not being able to work along and laugh, they did a whole series together lol
According to adam they didnt hate each other but also, as seen in this episode, didnt get along very well either. They respected each others building and engineering prowess but neither had much motivation to spend time outside of work. However, adam does mention in his UA-cam channel now that it was no hate, simply too big a difference in characters to bond over more than the engineering and building.
@majortom4543 that myth is busted. According to Adam, she left because she didn't want the fame and attention that the show was bringing. I've heard she's currently a dental hygienist. Before Mythbusters she also played bass for the band that would evolve into Weezer.
Why do all this channel's Mythbusters videos have the wrong titles? I checked "Mythbusters Bloopers" on IMDB and Wiki found no results, then I found out the real title for this episode is "MythBusters Revealed." This is not the first time I have noticed the wrong titles, every video on this channel has the wrong titles.
Lmao, I don't know how I didn't think this before but.. is Jamie on the spectrum? Lol, a lot of the behaviors make a bit more sense if he is on the lower end 😅
While neurotic is likely utterly the wrong term, I would not be surprised if Jamie is somewhere on the autistic spectrum. A bit like Adam's at the time undiagnosed ADHD, it would explain a decent number of his quirks shown and at his age is unlikely to be properly diagnosed when he was a kid. However, it is near impossible to truly diagnose off just edited TV, and could just be personal quirks from when and where he grew up or some other cause like OCD.
As the other comment said, it's before he joined - look in the video description, it's season 2, episode 30. So, Grant hasn't joined yet, but Scottie already left so they kinda cut her goofing around short too.
They are friendly, and good coworkers, but they never really clicked in a way that would have them interact outside the workplace. They never really did much not related to work together and have basically fallen out of contact since the show (as per Adam Savage on Tested).
When I was young, I thought Adam was the enthusiastic mad scientist and maker in comparison to Jamie's quiet, moderating presence.
Now that I'm a scientist and engineer, it's clear Jamie was the quiet mad scientist and inventor to Adam's enthusiastic but ultimately moderating presence.
yup, Jamie is a scientist, and Adam is a maker. Those are both amazing and rare things to be, and exactly where each are now.

Always said that Jamie knew how to make practical effects but Adam knew how to do that and make good TV.
I love how straight forward and chill Jamie is lmao
I love how this channel uploads full Mythbusters episodes for free and some people can still find something to complain about.
Just want to point out that if this channel does this for free, then what are millionaire youtubers? A myth?
And quoting Mythbusters, 'if it's worth doing, it's worth doing right'
Care to explain what do you mean with "complains" or will you keep hiding?
@SynthfulDuck there was comments about the quality and how it was mislabeled. And hiding? Lol take it easy john wick

8:35 The show's two main characters; characters is the correct term for Adam and Jamie!
Jamie deserves a medal for putting up with Adam for all those years.
Jamie? Is that you ?
You do realize Adam worked for Jamie before the show, right?
@@BrunodeSouzaLino Two medals then.
Jamie's like the strick but loving father and Adam is like the crazy fun loving uncle that loves the sound of laughter
Its HD What!!! Impossible,... 😭😭😭I'm so used to see them in 360,480p
12:00 This moment reminds of Mike Schank from "American Movie". Kings of understatement!
Jamie is an introvert, we don't get as excited as introverts. But that's what makes him so great. He ain't fooling around, he gets stuff done.
Yeah, introverts get too excited?
Fool!
the video literally includes him doing pranks
I mean ppl are always a piece of work no matter who you are, the important thing is to respect each other and learn to work along, I love e those two equally

@@AeonLibertas Problem is, there's no Season 2. Mythbusters had yearly seasons. And that's not episode 30 either.
I dunno why they keep rejecting that they’re friends? It’s clearly from here.
They can respect each other and have fun, but only at work. Outside of it, no. Like... work colleagues.
They aren’t friends, they just enjoy seeing the other in pain or miserable.
They are friendly, and good coworkers, but they never really clicked in a way that would have them interact outside the workplace. They never really did much not related to work together and have basically fallen out of contact since the show (as per Adam Savage on Tested).
