This one really gave the whole "we actually don't get along but we respect each other and just want to find the answers to the myth". Just goes to show you don't really need to like or get along with someone just to work together and do some amazing stuff together.
On adam's you tube which us still active btw hes said he and jamie had more time on camera where they couldnt stand each other than he could count . It never resulted in him or jamie wanting quit though. That would be contract negotation time for both of them being the thing that made them contemplate waking away. He has admitted he and jamie arent in cintact and given yhe opportunity to eork with jamie he probavly wont because over a decade is enough. Soo it seems as though yhey were coworkers and not friends.
It's wild when you think about how they're just launching an air cannon with destructive force just out of the back of the shop like that, how times change
@@VashStarwind true, it's just crazy to see them manually operating the valve from that close, or even sitting on it when they wouldn't be near it later
I love the fact that, compared to what I saw when I was younger, Jamie is honestly the more reckless one out of them all in the first seasons. Wanting chaos, destruction, making questionable components - and later he just slowly starts to be the one to have safety in mind, and that he also calms down a bit. Adam I honestly didn't think was this assertive and safety oriented when it came to butting heads with Jamie, but when you first start working with someone, ya kinda start on an uneven surface when it comes to understanding the other.
You can see the show still finding its feet in the first season. Adam and Jamie hadn't quite worked out their "Characters"; Adam's goofier more reckless persona hadn't been established yet.
It's fun but deadly. You have to love Jamie's seance of humor .the early episodes set the stage for the show to be such a big hit . thanks for posting these full episodes .
I remember watching these when it aired. I was a little kid and my whole family would huddle around the TV every week to watch it. They definitely knew how to capture an audience 🤣
So let's be realistic for a second. The "grain of truth" is probably that someone did bust their head open trying to jam too much laundry in the machine by climbing on it like that, not because the machine did anything, but just from falling.
The down to earth aproach' are such a blast in these older videos, even going to scrap yards and pick up various things and talk about prices 6:04 These older episodes have a raw & honest attitude, that sadly were lost over the years... where things got a lot more staged and censored.. thx for sharing these older goldnuggets.
I'm so happy they steered away from Adam and Jamie badmouthing each other. They still did it, but more in jest. Would have turned into some kind of Homeboys of Jersey crap.
same. that sort of rivalry and bad mouthing is something I disliked in a lot of the Discovery shows. made them feel more like reality tv and not science/tech tv.
@@hamishwhitehenderson5197 true but that's how it started on shows like American Chopper, which would later be scaled up to full on (artificial) rivalries and augments. turning those shows into more of a reality tv drama show instead of what they originally started out as. something I really don't like in tv shows

Keep up the good work by posting these it’s bringing back memories of my childhood binge watching and watching the marathons of MythBusters. Keep it up. Good to the guy that is posting these
Its a french entertainment/content production company that posts these. They own the rights to quite a few popular TV shows and post some of them on the tube as a business model (they rightfully own it and get fully monitized. Its all about the $$$ on the tube, as anywhere and everywhere i guess.
Its so much fun watching this as an adult. Jamie used to seem like a grouch, now i notice that hes actually, nice and as much of a madman if not more than adam 😂 Still, what i remember most is them being good role models, you're allowed to be mad at each other but also recognize you went a bit far even uf you're right.
I feel like the problem with the chicken test was with the valve, so many variables were involved including Jamie manually opening it, the moment the value was opened most of the energy was expelled, I reckon if this was to be done now it would be with a computer to open a valve that opens from the centre outwards rather than the top down, it would mitigate most of the flaws of the test, so then the impact the chickens had, frozen or thawed, would actually matter
I wonder was this before the production decided to leave the fights off camera? There are comments and stern discussions in many episodes sure but Adam cursing in Jamie's face was clearly on the more serious end
I've heard Adam say in interviews that the crew used to encourage them to bicker and it took a while for them to settle into a format that didn't require that.
A director or producer was changed after the first season or so as he was aiming for the show to be more like American Chopper. Adam and Jamie have mentioned it before.
I cant say much about the difference between a frozen or thawed chicken impact but I can tell you for certain when firing potatoes, oranges, or a load of grapes from a "Spud Gun " there is a hell of a difference between frozen and solid that becomes very obvious when hitting car windsheilds or sheetmetal like doors and fenders.
It’s kinda lame they busted it off the impact time alone despite the high speed showing the area of the impact being larger on the thawed chicken. Like, it’s penetrating an elastic surface, area matters.
@@goatah exactly. That's why a .30/06 shooting a 180 grain JSP might do less damage than a 12 gauge slug at close range but penetrate way further or when hitting a barrier it can't penetrate will create a bigger dent. Even though the slug and the rifle bullet may have similar energy at 10 feet the slug is a big soft projectile that deform easily and transfers that energy over a larger area causing more area to be damaged but not damaged to the extent of what the rifle bullet did. When you process a deer the meat surrounding the bullets path through the deer is pulverized in a 3 to 4 inch area all along the bullets path usually all the way through the deer were as the slug may have an 8 inch wound channel thats pulverized but it only went 12 to 14 inches into the deer. If they had simply got some windshields rated for bird strikes they would certainly have seen that a thawed chicken transfers its energy immediately while the frozen one penetrated and distributed its energy gradually which obviously means the thawed chicken stops on impact because without energy remaining it cannot continue to travel, frozen continues to travel until it has used all its kinetic energy.
This was the very first episode of Mythbusters I ever saw, it was back when Mythbusters was still on Netflix which should give you a good idea of how bloody long ago this was. Also, I have no idea how that myth of the Killer Washing Machine originated, it has not a single basis in fact: my guess is that it was the premise for a comedy sketch parodying the sitcom Home Improvement that was submitted to a show like S.N.L. or In Living Color , it got rejected, and someone, in their "infinite wisdom" decided to turn it into a story to titillate simple-minded folk.
Now the frozen chicken will have the same energy as the normal one but it should be much better at penetrating as its harder. Same way you use hard bullets to punch trough armor who will easy stop an bullet with an lead core but not one with an tungsten core. Doing that test on say a 2-3" thick plank wall would show an difference I think.
I mean, they had the frozen chicken blast through that bullet-proof screen...All they needed to do was lower the power and see whether both frozen and thawed would break those. If they didn't want to destroy those (I don't know whether they are or are not super-pricy), they could just use a few panes of regular plexy one behind the other. My bet is that at a point that frozen barely destroys all of them, thawed would be stopped on first two or three. Why? Because unlike the frozen chicken that passed its energy into the obstacle, the energy of the thawed chicken would go into obliterating the chicken itself. So yeah, they didn't even test the myth in the first place. The myth wasn't about which chicken has more energy flying but which causes more destruction with that energy. You simply cannot check that by shooting them both at an item that neither has ANY chance of destroying. The way energy is passed is just totally different.
Definitely glad they got rid of the folklore lady, it's not like she's bad or anything it just feels very weird to have an expert in urban folklore on a science show. Like where are they going to bring a Bible scholar on if they did any biblical myths?😂😂😂
The myth that they where trying to test is not about jet aircraft it is about high speed trains and the difference between the effects of frozen and not frozen chickens as far as the impact of the chicken through a windshield they were using a light aircraft because that is what they could get
