Is it true that these two don't get along? It kinda ruined the show for me as a kid when I heard people say they hate each other IRL. They always seemed to get along just fine.
Jamie is a professional so he doesn't have to like someone to work with them.

For 80s kids, they'll be sad to know that Hall & Oates actually do hate each other.
>they'll be sad to know that Hall & Oates actually do hate each other.
No, they don't, I've done research into this. Simon and Garfunkel don't like each other though.
They've told the story before. Jamie was Adam's boss before Mythbusters, when M5 was a movie prop making firm, and apparently Adam quit in anger because they kept butting heads over designs.
When Mythbusters was being created it was supposed to be just Jamie hosting the show, but they filmed 2 pilots that were apparently really boring, so Jamie begrudgingly suggest they bring Adam on as a cohost, because as much as he didn't like him he knew Adam had a more TV-friendly personality.
Watching it more recently now that I'm older it is actually pretty clear. They butt heads a lot. Adam does a lot of long winded ways of doing things that Jamie just wants to get a move on. Adam doesn't understand physics as well so when Jamie suggests certain things Adam thinks it will not work, etc. Jamie makes a far superior umbrella gun in an afternoon than Adam does working on it for a week, and for a lot more expense. Etc.
It doesn't seem like they hate each other, but Jamie understandably gets annoyed at times. Just how working relationships go though, 95% of them anyway.

And you know what makes it all work? When James has a go, fails and the derper gets it done with a simple solution. it worked both ways lmao

says they didn't get along >Interprets it as him saying they're enemies
ESL moron
I mean it shouldn't surprise you Adam is an insufferable wokegay, it's as if all the San Francisco slime congealed into a single person and you can see how quickly the "heckin' love science" facade disappears when it smashes into some progressive dogma. On the other hand Jamie seems like some kind of hardcore libertarian prepper type, he lives on a massive ranch and has a bunch of guns. The drama makes for decent tv though because that was the discovery channels whole thing
It flying out makes no sense. If the blue portal suddenly stops when the cube is 99% of the way through, does it still fly out? If it stops 1%? If a doorframe falls on you, do you go flying into the air?
In the game, portals never move like that. In Portal 2 there is only one part of the game where portals can move sideways, parallel to the plane of the portal, but never perpendicular. And in Portal 1 they never move.
Teller and Penn Jillette don't hang out either. They explained that they see each so much at work and on the road that they have no desire to see each other even more on their days off.
They were both government stooges and would not cover anything controversial, they're both huge homosexuals as well, I mean who wears a fricking beret.
freaking ultra giga California boomers, thats who. the kind who spend six figures on a broken down 70s porsche and claim its superior to modern engineering
The one where the tested if elephants were really afraid of mice they messed up on since they used white lab mice instead of native mice the elephants would be familiar with.
elephants aren't afraid of familiar mice, but will stay away from a new animal they've never seen, hence the false confirmed result the mythbusters got for that muth
They did one about sinking ships sucking people down into the water and tested it by sinking a real boat while on it to see what happened. But they used a little tugboat to test it when the myth involves huge ships, it wasn't a reasonable comparison.
Nearly every fricking time I've watched that garbage show the tests they do are PATHETICALLY inept. Then they have the gall to say "Myth busted!" or "Plausible!" as if those gurning puddingheads are the arbiters of the scientific method. I literally kick my small footstool over and shout "The gall!" and storm out of the room.
The Bullet Through The Rifle Scope Myth. They used a modern scope instead of a scope from the era the myth originated from. The bullet didn't go through the modern scope so they claimed mythbusted, but everyone complained so much about the scope being wrong they redid it with a period accurate scope and the bullet went through it. They're dumb as frick.
If they were intelligent they wouldn't have used a modern scope.
you need to relax, its a shitty TV show
I knew they were dead wrong during the scope episode because I knew it revolved around a shitty PU scope
Yes, they're wrong about that. There is TONS of testimony from sailors and passengers of sunken ships saying that people get sucked under. From different countries, from different times, they all say it. But the effect would only be appreciable for a large ship sinking fast, which is basically impossible to test on a TV show budget.
I forget the details but IIRC they also botched the "cannonballs cause splinter wounds" myth. I think they called that busted, but there is ample documentation from ships surgeons during the age of sail saying that splinter wounds were devastating.

So they agreed to set aside their egos, redid the myth at the behest of people's complaints and then went along with a result that proved them wrong. Sounds to me like they're pretty humble and intelligent people.
Tried to write a sketch show once
One of the sketches involved Penn & Teller being caught at the Rio in Vegas, wherein they were surprised in their green room. Both were naked but Teller was waist deep, sticking out Penn's ass
It involved Penn running around the hotel, shotuing as he does, trying to convince anyone who would listen that it was just a magic trick
As he swung about, Teller would bump into things, still waist deep in Penn's ass, and would occasionally mime something or make a face
when they said they never hung out, they were just hiding the fact they had sex with each other regularly
Is it true that these two don't get along? It kinda ruined the show for me as a kid when I heard people say they hate each other IRL. They always seemed to get along just fine.
I always got the impression that Jamie begrudgingly tolerated Adam.
Jamie is a professional so he doesn't have to like someone to work with them.

Wonder if that's why they had pic related as part of season one to give background on the myths
It's not really that they hate each other, they're just not friends
They worked together and that was pretty much it
Watching it more recently now that I'm older it is actually pretty clear. They butt heads a lot. Adam does a lot of long winded ways of doing things that Jamie just wants to get a move on. Adam doesn't understand physics as well so when Jamie suggests certain things Adam thinks it will not work, etc. Jamie makes a far superior umbrella gun in an afternoon than Adam does working on it for a week, and for a lot more expense.

Fricking Americans and their dualism about goddamned everything.
They're not friends so they're enemies is that it?
Nuance is beyond you.
It's easy to imagine hating Adam.

shh the adults are talking, moron anon
Yeah I bet it is, thanks for proving my point, mutt.

ok so it's either six million or it's not, which is it?

It's hard to imagine not hating Adam. You either like this kind of guy, or you hate him.
I mean it shouldn't surprise you Adam is an insufferable wokegay, it's as if all the San Francisco slime congealed into a single person and you can see how quickly the "heckin' love science" facade disappears when it smashes into some progressive dogma.

I rewatched last year and it felt like they had a lot of half assed and rushed conclusions based on time restrictions.
women in STEM
The one where they busted the myth that the cereal box is more nutritious than the cereal.
Turns out the mice are the most nutritious part.
Airplane on a treadmill

From a mathematical point of view, B is correct. But in the game, A would happen because that's how the rules of the game were programmed.
In the game, portals never move like that. In Portal 2 there is only one part of the game where portals can move sideways, parallel to the plane of the portal, but never perpendicular. And in Portal 1 they never move.
Portals fail when the surface they are on moves with respect to the other portal. Next.
Except for that one time in Portal 2 where you have to pass a laser beam through a portal on a moving wall to slice some conduit to disable something.
B violates conservation of momentum.
The golf ball dimpled car. No one has been able to re-produce their results.
Has anyone tried?
no. thus no one has been able to re-produce their results.
Yes. A big name manufacturer contacted Adam and said they couldn't re-produce it.
Teller and Penn Jillette don't hang out either. They explained that they see each so much at work and on the road that they have no desire to see each other even more on their days off.
They were both government stooges and would not cover anything controversial, they're both huge homosexuals as well, I mean who wears a fricking beret.
freaking ultra giga California boomers, thats who. the kind who spend six figures on a broken down 70s porsche and claim its superior to modern engineering
>muh engineering
>in a car
if it looks good and it makes you feel good then its worth it. spending money on a car for literally ANY other reason than that is moronic.

This thread had its time. What compelled you make it again? Looking forward to rehashing the plane on a treadmill myth, are we?
I recognize the 'raping blob' but who is the other guy?
Its the Walrus (Paul)

Couldn't they have used midgets to scale the experiment?
so it seems
No because the water is the same size dawg

Keri seemed like she would be annoying to be around, besides the pleasant sight of her breasts. Scottie was much more well rounded.

Too soon.
