Crushing a Car with the Domino Effect | MythBusters Jr.
Ойын-сауық
Cannan, Rachel, and Jesse investigate chain reactions and the most famous of them all: the domino effect. They create an experiment if each successive domino is larger than the previous one, can a chain reaction of toppling tiles end in a car-crushing catastrophe?

2:14 "On a ~*kEy*~ mythbusting skill"
I love how the _moment_ Adam said “all safeties are off” he unnecessarily walked through the rig and almost tripped
Those dominos in the movie "Robots" were so satisfying.

The problem was the distance to place the dominoes apart was based on specific centers of gravity, but the way in which you increased the weight of the final one completely altered said variable.

The experiment was manipulated. It wasn’t meant to be crushed. Fate did not have it that way.

okie i know its been a whole year atleast, but i think roberto was joking. like the universe "willed it" so that the MR2 wouldnt be broken. at the same point i feel like this short thread of comments was sarcastic. 1. undertaker responded in a way that i have no idea why anyone would respond to that. roberto does not seem , atleast to me literally refering to fate. now this is only a feeling, and only due to seeeing other comments about the cool car being smushed. it would seem likely roberto is along for the joke as well. were he really stating it was fate would be funny or that he was crazy. either way , undertaker, did not undertake a construcive discourse and adds nothing to and convo 2.roberto proceeds to respond with a comment about undertakers grammar and a further repsonse to undertakers comment. though reasonable in content. i see a missed oppurnrity for discussion or joke. both of which would have been entertaining. i too though dont know why undertaker commented something so boring and benign. however we are met with a short paragraph over grammar, of which is trite and true in this time we are in. you both could have tried harder in your discourse to make it more engaging. its okay. keep trying, do your best! now back to the main point. roberto claims that undertaker is of low mental capality and growth. including grammar. yet refers to consuming" too much television and lots of gamers, ". now the idea seems likely that it is the consupmpsiton of tv and gaming content, ie games themselves or online gameplay videos , the like. is what roberto is refering to. but using the word gamers seems like incorrect grammar. as it is unclear as to what they mean excpltly 3. undertaker responds , but now with consitent and correct english grammar. possibly to show that, they too, can tangle with english. or to poke fun at the arbitrary need for tip top tier puncutation. undertaker then proceeds to undertake saying that robertos supposed '10 minutes' of effort [that which is too hard or too much work for me to discern is true or not] was misguided and that apathay and a lack of effort was needed to look less like an ass. in contrast, i think that there should have been more effort on both of thine parts. to bring something that is truly them to the table, none of this . 'hurhurhd you talk wrong' and "uh no you are talk wronger and also who care?" 4.that is why i think this comment thread was two folks joking around, as that is what makes sense to me. oyu may ahve noticed my comment is ripe with puncutaion and typoes. im mostly aware, but it is also 5:12 AM PST. but also aslong as you understand what i am conveying, then i dont care about grammar. let us extend this into a more produticve convo. 5.dont worry i seee you emma. but your comment i feel may not be a joke, which would be a bit annoying. do try though, im curious what you really have to say. 6. i did not watch this episode in full, and infact was not aware a junior version of the show. exicted prior to these uploads. did they try to calculate the point of contact between the dominoes that would give them the most torque on the sub sequential domino? that would be interesting as i think as long as the point of contact is not the pivot, they wuld be jsut as golden. 7. after checking everyone's channels out to make sure no one is a kid. i think its fair to say that i can talk to yall as adults. definitely comment

So many people attacking this, not being "real mythbusters" and resetting it. They forget this is a different show,.with kids doing it. It is a different target and audience, plus who knows what time constraints the kids have. This is meant for kids so calm down.

To all who say that this car would have been scrapped anyway because its not running: Some people like cars, especially rare and classic cars like the Aw11. And because these people like cars they occasionally restore cars, so it doesnt matter if the car drives or not, but you cant fix a car if the chassis is completely bent. This happens, for example, when you drop a 10000000 ton domino on a car. So if you say it doesnt matter to destroy this car because it's not running and so it would be scrapped anyway, is like saying it doesnt matter to shoot a lion just because its leg is broken and so its going to put you down anyway. Please dont talk about things you dont understand Thanks

What kind of a question is that even? If its known, that one domino can tip over more than its own weight, it just takes enough dominos to tip over any given amount of weight.
If there was only 13 instead of 12 dominos, last one would go smoothly...
In Domino art/creations, one Domino can hit into increasingly bigger wooden or plastic panels that can topple towers (of Dominos). Of course it would work! So awesome!
Why a mr2 tho😪

I feel bad for that MR2
Why pick the MR2. im legit crying right now its my dream car.
They made up this "myth" wtf
Lol next time - ultra large car vs large domino
As fan fan of mythbusters and car enthousiast proud MR2 owner, i got mixed feelings about this -_-
They needed one more domino to crush it
Omg u crushed a MR2
everyone laughs at Toyota until its an mr2 getting crushed.
Everyone is upset that they crushed an MR2, but it haws stripped for parts before they crushed it, so I wasn't that mad.
Get out of the car Jamie! Oh no, bad news, Jamie scuffed his beret.
couldn’t bear finishing the video once i saw the car
Glad mythbusters are back !
"So, why was your Car wrecked?" "... It's complicated."
The most coolest experience.
But creating such a setup might takeup more energy than crushing the car, but seeing it is still super awesome
There are tons of ricer civic out there and you choose to destroy a fabulous mr2
Make another with 15 dominoes and no mistakes
Having not clearly seen the inside of the larger dominoes I wonder if weight distribution was the reason the last one didn't go over without help. If the center of mass was significantly below the vertical midpoint or closer to the impact side than car side that would make it more difficult to tip over. Conversely a high center of mass or one closer to the car would be easier to tip over.
@airnold88

which was actually the case! in the earlier part of the video, they showed that buckets of concrete were being placed inside the bricks, at the very bottom, to "stabilize" them and prevent accidentally tipping over. that certainly ruined the whole thing :-(
