剧情简介
A countdown of the cast’s 12 favourite locations for testing myths, with an emphasis on one myth that was tested at the location.
| No. | Name (in countdown) | Myth featured | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| 12 | Home Sweet Home | No specific myth | M5 Industries, the MythBusters’ home base, is examined. It includes details on the origins of the M5 name, the opening and closing of M6, the shop initially used by the Build Team in 2004 (roughly corresponding to the period between the formation of the Build Team and Scottie Chapman’s departure), as well as M7, the Build Team’s home since 2005 (roughly corresponding to Grant joining the Build Team). |
| 11 | Don’t “Quarry” About It! | Cement Mix-Up Knock Your Socks Off | The quarries used by the MythBusters are examined. Adam and Jamie detail the last-minute addition of the concrete truck explosion. The Build Team also details on the damage control after the pressure wave from a quarry explosion had caused collateral damage in nearby Esparto, California, and why they have not been at that quarry since. |
| 10 | African Adventure | Elephants Scared of Mice | The myths tested in South Africa is featured. Though initially they were filming for Supersize Shark, due to inclement conditions they decided to film an impromptu myth to better make use of their time there. |
| 9 | Runaway Runway | Tree Cannon | The runway at Alameda is featured. The location is frequented so much (at the time of filming, most recently, the previous day for the finale of Fixing a Flat) that Grant recalls that some fans mistakenly believed that M5 was based in Alameda. Jamie also notes that the hand-carved cannonball that was shot out of the tree cannon was never found, even after 7 years. |
| 8 | Zombie Town | Elevator of Death | Abandoned areas are featured in this entry, with a special focus on the abandoned residential neighbourhood nicknamed by the crew as “Zombie Town”. The effort into cleaning up the site before “Elevator of Death” could be tested is also detailed. |
| 7 | Cool for School | No specific myth | University and government research facilities used by the MythBusters are detailed, with a specific emphasis on the rocket sled testing facilities in New Mexico Tech. Jamie also talks about the people who run these facilities and the insight they provide to the myths being tested. |
| 6 | Thunderdome | No specific myth | The local power-generating stations used in myths that require high-voltage electricity, nicknamed the “Thunderdome” by Adam, is featured. |
| 5 | Just Hanging Out! | Seven Folds | The hangars at Moffat Field are featured. The Build Team also recalls an owl dung that had to be removed from the paper between testing days as the paper was being laid out. |
| 4 | Presidential Perks | President’s Challenge | The MythBusters’ three visits to the White House is featured, and featured is Jamie’s speechlessness at Barack Obama’s introduction speech congratulating the role of MythBusters in children’s science education. The 500 students chosen in that test were all from the high school where Jamie’s wife has been a longtime science teacher. |
| 3 | It’s Snow Joke | Spinning Ice Bullets | Myths tested in wintry conditions are tested. The Build Team talks about having to brave the weather in the Sierra Nevada mountains. |
| 2 | Deserted Desert | JATO Rocket Confederate Rocket | The Mojave Desert is featured. Kari, then an intern at M5, details on her role in the pilot episode, having driven through the night to catch up to Adam and Jamie. Adam and Jamie detail on having an M5 truck stuck in the mud on two separate occasions during “Confederate Rocket”. Jamie also notes that portions of the desert are cleared for types of testing that the MythBusters have yet to fully make use of. |
| 1 | Home Away From Home | Sawdust Cannon | Nicknamed “home away from home”, the bomb range is explored. Jamie talks about how some of the myths involving explosives would otherwise be illegal if the bomb range was not available. The Build Team details their experience with the non-dairy creamer cannon and how much more dangerous than it was originally anticipated. The challenges of working in rainy conditions, when the ground is wet and muddy. The episode ends with a montage of explosions from various myths tested on the range. |
