The high speed camera technology moved on so much while this was airing.

It's funny how they talk about trusting a pyrotechnic expert in this episode, when Adam (on his Tested youtube channel) later talks about how this event is why they never used a pyrotechnician again, preferring bomb techs bar nothing.

Honestly speaking, back in the aughts, Jamie positioned his shop perfectly. Most of the supply stores they went to in the first three seasons are all within a half mile radius of M5. That Restaurant Depot is quite literally a block away.

The disappearance of Jaime's granite cannonball was one of the saddest momemts in the entire series for me.

Dude with the cannons is the most American just casually firing a cannon in his front yard.

The metal sculpture Jamie made with the woks is exactly the type of thing you see in those modern art sales going for millions lol.

these old shows were a joy to watch.. way more honest and in your face... and also shows that a relative low budget , certainly didn't make the episodes less enjoyable. It also seems like the target group went from mainly adults on these older shows, to a more "family friendly" concept // kids.

Imo gold rush or the fishing programs on tv nowadays aren't more family friendly, they cuss all the time. I guess it's just cheaper to get a view on board of a fishing ship than to pay for a whole program and their experiments. Tv really isn't what it used to be anymore, kinda sad.

Also isn't there a method of making a hole in wood with fire/burning charcoal? Fire hardening would also make the tree more likely to explode.

In my 20s, a friend and I conducted an experiment. A nurse we knew claimed that consuming large amounts of coleslaw could negate the effects of alcohol, a practice she attributed to the Romans during heavy drinking sessions. Curious, we decided to test this theory. Though skeptical about coleslaw's ability to fool a breathalyzer, we found it did seem to prevent us from feeling intoxicated. We consumed an enormous quantity of coleslaw; I prepared 3 gallons, and together we ate nearly all of it. As regular drinkers, we had high alcohol tolerance. I recall finishing almost a half-case of beer with my girlfriend, who became inebriated after just one bottle, while I felt unaffected by the 11 I consumed. To begin our experiment, we shared a quart of 80 proof vodka. An hour later, feeling sober, we purchased a case of Triola wine, a 14% alcohol content wine popular in 1972. We each downed a bottle within an hour and still felt clear-headed, confirmed by two friends monitoring us. Over the next two hours, we each drank five more bottles. Remaining unaffected, we then split a case of 3.2% beer, drinking 12 beers each without feeling any impact, and eventually went to bed out of boredom. The next morning, we awoke hangover-free. Despite the lack of intoxication making the experience dull, it did seem to validate the coleslaw theory.

I think some bloke actually found that Granite cannonball later on.

Pyrotechnician #1: I bought 20 ounces of black powder in my big extra safety crate. We'll split it into smaller doses. Pyrotechnician #2: I got a garbage bag full of black powder, let's just dump it all in and see what happens.

19:48 adams wink here. Yep. We know 😂😂😂😂😂🎉

Cannon are bored by putting the drill bit in a fixed jig, pointing up, then placing the end of the barrel on top of the bit. The barrel is rotated, so that the weight of the gun does the hard work, and the waste falls out of the bore.

33:07. Kari in her intern/assistant days?

that lightning myth would be so nice if filmed today with the tech we see on the slow mo guys...

For the breathalyzer one, there was one story of someone trying to fool it by swishing hand sanitizer… which contains alcohol

Loving It

I miss my tongue ring, had to take it out during my radiation treatments so I said screw it!

Ahahahah that little granite ball Jamie carved probably met the bay at quite a pace. That runway was a mile long!

I often contemplate the repercussions of not passing tests. First, I have diabetes, which I've heard can cause a false positive on breathalyzer tests. Second, I'm unable to walk heel-to-toe without falling. Third, I cannot tip my head back and hold it or stand on one foot without falling over, even when sober. Occasionally, I use a cane for support due to these issues, and I seldom drink alcohol. I had a drink last year, but before that, I hadn't consumed alcohol in five years.

Do you guys realize there is still this trophy to be found? The hand carved cannon ball... What would it be worth today?

The reason you can't beat the breath tester is because those things are so poorly designed that even people who haven't had anything to drink test positive.

Try 2 pieces of the chewy Quick-Eze. No one has ever belived me. But can it be proven to be correct?

Great job Guys 💯😎😺

I'm more curious about what actually happened to his piercing. Did the lightning pull it out?

Man, they really didn't contact any actual scientists to actually analyze what was happening. 1) That's a tiny fraction of an actual lightning bolt, so it may behave NOTHING like an actual lightning bolt. 2) Just because it attracted it, doesn't mean it needs a direct hit. That's assuming ABSURD accuracy for a lightning bolt!

Adam: "C'mon, who wears a doorknob"???.... Me: "Dave Letterman!" (a *GIANT* one actually!!)...

a steel cannon would also explode when loaded with 2.5 kg of powder

"Adam's drink is scotch neat." shows Adam drinking scotch on the rocks.

You have to start to blow ~5sec before the start signal to blow tells you to. I got this from a befriended police officer that had to control me after his chief busted me drunk reparking my car. It worked perfectly fine, possibly the machine recalibrates before it takes a measure, like adding weight befor tara.

I heard a story once, of a guy who was drinking and driving, got into an accident, and just before the cops did the breath test he took a swig of liquor he had in his car. He told the cops he had just drunk after the crash to settle his nerves. When they did the test they detected alcohol, but couldn't tell if it was his actual BAC or just the remnants in his mouth of what he had minutes prior. So they let him go.

Too bad those analog heads didn't exist back in these days. Those analog heads you could add saline solution to to mimic ahead so much better. Cuz the chemistry of your blood along with your head itself plays a huge factor. Regular ballistics gel is not conductive at all compared to a human head full of blood
