I wasn't even remotely surprised by that. The two main challenges to getting this to work is that the block has to be removed quickly enough that the next blocks fall flat. And, the vibrations that ripple up and down the tower need to be vertical to have any chance. Obviously, it's not easy, but the faster the bottom block is removed, the better chance you should have at that happening. But, even with that, it's likely to have a very high failure rate. I'm a bit surprised that they didn't try knock it off with something similar in thickness to the blocks and having it bounce back after giving enough force to the block to knock it clear.

The new format is wicked! Keep it up team Mythbusters!!

The composition of the tower's stacked pieces is everything. The crashes all occurred when there was a gap in a middle layer that was opposite the direction of the bottom piece's momentum, allowing the stack above that gap to rock backward. There were two such layers on the blue actuator at the end, which worked due to its speed. It failed on the big blocks because it had a brief pause between striking and exiting the stack (seen using 'pause, comma, period' frame advance), probably due to its weight. A more powerful actuator might have worked on the big block stack.

In Elijah's tower pull that almost worked, there was an extra block in the bottom center that wasn't there for the super sized blocks. The same happened with Valerie except instead of 3 blocks she had 2 with one of them in the center. Those blocks effected the structural stability and integrity at the bottom therefore making it more likely to work than the other method.

Adam explains that 'with one hand only', Elijah immediately uses two hands= facepalm

that last test gave me ghoose bumps that was awesome

The problem with the bike experiment is the force is not parallel to the bottom block. The trick is you have to pull it straight with parallel force (like the slingshot is almost parallel). 5:46 see it in slow-motion, the head of the string moved up first. (Playback speed x0.25)

7:10 I just wanna say that in jenga, when will the second to last row ever be configured into that shape?

The weight is not the problem, the friction is the problem. Bigger area + bigger weight = much bigger friction. This will transfer some of the kinetic energy of the bottom piece to the upper, making the tower fall

If the tower is stable enough for you to be able to bang on the table fairly hard without it collapsing, just take the bottom piece and while you bang a good firm shot on the table pull it as fast as you can.
