Adam Savage's Terminator T-800 Endoskeleton 

Watch Adam paint and add weathering effects to his T-800 in this video: www.tested.com/premium/460319-premium-weathering-t-800-endoskeleton/

Adam is so smart.

When I was a kid (4-5 y.o.) my brother had a poster of Terminator 1 in his room. When it was dark I was actually afraid to go in there...

Guy: "I'm never coming in here again!" Adam: "That would be so awesome"

You can feel Adam's natural passion and innate enthusiasm for his craft come across in the segment, which is what we all should be striving for in life to give us purpose and meaning. Whenever you hear Adam talk about something, it always easily flows and gets the viewer involved as if they were in the same room.

Of course Adamn owns a freaking Terminator. At this point I am not even surprised anymore :D

"I'm never coming in again if you do that" - Adam: "that'll be so awesome!"

"Everybody has a terminator standing with a riffle"... And here I am, without a terminator. :'(

Build perfect killing machine, still leave gap between two front teeth...

There is nothing to this day that I have ever witnessed that has stuck with me and continued to scare the absolute shit out of me like a bare metal T-800.

I really want to thank Adam for teaching us so much in these videos. I used a lot of his tips and tricks for a costume I made this week for a Game of Thrones costume contest that George RR Martin hosted in Santa Fe today and I was one of the winners! Thank you so much for your tips on weathering on this vid and your weathering vid and that aluminum tape trick for wooden swords! It won me tickets to the Santa Fe premiere of Game of Thrones! Thanks Adam, keep on teaching and we'll keep on learning!

I keep imagining the eyes of the T-800 lightning up, the head turning to look at Adam, and politely asking, "Hey, could you stop slapping me on the head? Thanks."

"Phased plasma rifle, 40 watt range." "Hey just what you see pal."

This guy's attention to detail is admirable. This is a true labor of love.

funny thing is i can relate to his relaxation comment. for me when im building and designing things i find it to be relaxing and help take my mind off of things. similar to a destress as it were. i have designed dozens of models with various programs and built even more and i just find it to be very enjoyable. nice to find a kindred spirit :D

Can you please make a video of Adam painting his T-800 while talking to it? Like at the barber shop, you know. Tellin some stories. That would be hillarious!

That is so cool! I like the fact that Adam built his own rather than just buying one. I expected them to be worth o whole lot more though!

i love these videos with adam. i could listen to him talk about movie props all day long.

Saw the thumbnail. Terminator drumbeat started marching through my brain. Skynet moved my mouse on its own. Here I am.

I was so fascinated with the t800 as a kid. So cool.

You now what'd be even cooler than the beer can? Having him holding a really fancy, old fashioned teacup and saucer, with his little finger crooked out! :-D

A very beautiful work of art. He's right to be as proud as I'm sure he is.

"gooood bye....." " I think its I'll be back" lmao

Adam is incredibly gracious and patient with all the interrupting and interjecting of this host. I mean no disrespect, but seriously, the viewers aren't here for YOU. They are here for Adam. Your job is to host the show, facilitate the flow a bit, and encourage the best answers out of Adam so you get good footage for the show. Right? Not to attempt to complete half his sentences and interrupt him with new questions without having given him ample time to answer the previous ones. Your over-zealous approach borders on pushiness. It's incredibly annoying, and it's in every video. I don't know how Adam maintains such patience with it. What a great idea you've had with Tested - just let it shine for what it is, instead of forcing it so much!

It's been so long since I've done any kind of model building. Model building's fun, but weathering was always one of THE most fun parts for me.

Why is Arnie just sitting there in this video while these two touches him?

There is just something about listening to Adam talking about painting and weathering techniques that is just so fascinating

You always have all the neat stuff Adam thanks for sharing bro👍🏻

I read that an original T-800 model from the second movie sold for $488,000.

He needs to sit on something like a futuristic Skynet Iron Throne.

Every time I see an Adam video like this, I'm reminded of how I didn't get into the SFX business like I planned back in the 90's. And I feel the pain of that choice every day.

I've known you've wanted one of these for years. This is SO awesome.

Adam, more than you shall EVER know, you have in your possession, one of my Coveted Objects with that T-800 endoskeleton. What is a Coveted Object, you ask? Well, quite simply it is an object that I know I will never own, never get to actually see in person, and if given a realistic chance to have one--I would not be able to scrounge up enough money, time, or energy to see it become my own. I am super Jelly.

I need your clothes, your boots, and your motorcycle.

Awesome job on the T800. The first thing he should add after the glowing red eyes is voice response using random Terminator sound bytes

Wow this is my favorite effect object of all time. Thanks Adam for this video.

Well, of *course* Adam has a life-size, movie-accurate T-800 endoskeleton. Why the hell am I even a little bit surprised by this?

6:14 The ZF1 gun for The Fifth Element :D

There is a small but elite group of people on Earth that own their own endoskeleton. Adam is one of them.

Magnificent, Adam. Thanks for the video.

It's beautiful.

Adam, if you're reading this please do not put in an actual AI chip!

The first terminator film is still one of my favorite movies of all time. and I always nerd out around stuff related to it

I love that it's just chilling there!

I knew he'll be back!

Best part is how he weathers it!

The best part of RU-vid is you can sit here for hours, waiting for 2015 watching anything and everything BTW Happy New Year!

Wow that's terrifying and a work of art at the same time

I would love a T-800 as a coat stand; it's an eternally cool thing to have in one's home :)

At 6:07 There is the pod gun from The 5th Element on the table primed ready for paint. That gun blew my mind when I first saw the movie

I loved the last words in that video. Savage/Terminator: Goodbye Tested: I think it's, "I'll be back". Savage/Terminator: I will be right... (Then in a somewhat dejected sounding rushed voice) I'll be back. 😆 EXCELLENT EPISODE! I always love a peek into Adam's cave.

It's beautiful! Great casting job! It looks great!

7:30 "You know, you can buy one online right now for about six or seven thousand dollars" Oh, Adam :D What a deal!

This is so so so so so so interesting to me and just so nostalgic, cool & it makes me remember how during the 90's I had secretly popped "T2 Judgement Day VHS" into the player as a kid when my Mom and Sister were gone from home shopping & I agree with Adam that it terrified me because of a few scenes but the nuke playground scene in particular freaked me out. Love T2 it is by far the best Terminator film.

Would love to have one of these :-) HUGE Terminator fan!!

so I've watched the first two terminator movies, and i will certainly say that so far, out of the whole series, judgement day is the best. i LOVED the t-1000. amazing plot, sinister villain, it has it all.

How awesome would that be if he replaced the pistons with linear actuators and connected them to a micro controller and battery in its head so it could actually move independently.

The mechanical design on they t-8000 is so cool! So many hydraulic piston actuators!

putting a large slurpee cup in the t-800s hand would be a really nice touch to complete the chill vibe

Adam has so much cool shit.

This is an example of why us nerds are awesome.

Usually I put a video in my favourites list because I want to find it quickly when I'm talking about it. This one is in there because I just find it awesome. I want one!!

Adam really good job on the T-800! Also the KS for the tip about the copper paint!

This is Adam's Pinnochio. One day, it will be a real boy, smiling with red death eyes back at you :)

I spy with my little eye a ZF1 from the Fifth Element at 6:08 , love that weapon.

That's cool how Adam got the guy who worked on the OG T-800 to work on this. Way to be authentic. Color me impressed, or metallic.

Buster has gotten some upgrades Love you Adam!

Tested Adam, he needs orange Cheetos debris on his fingers and teeth with an empty bag nearby. Also, if he is supposed to be the cool terminator I vote to name him Ice T-800. :)

Just imagine this thing suddenly coming to life

Adam being a terminator fan.....makes him that much cooler

6:24 just casually the gun from 5th element sitting on the table behind him... love you Adam! 😍

Adam you are a boss

If you have small kids in the house, this would cause severe emotional damage.

Incredible artwork!

Adam is the type of guy every one wants to be

SkyNet has become Savage-aware!

By far the coolest looking skeleton ever!!!

Just watched a vid where a guy made one from 100% metal and built it himself which took nearly 4 and a half years !! It's full size and has its own stand where it can stand or crouch in several positions .

There is always "a place in LA that" does something that you need. You guys are lucky living in California except for that little necessity called water. Maybe someday you will want to trade spots with me here in VT.

I just saw making of the one and only metal, real scale and movable terminator in the world, so Adam's terminator now looks like a Bugatti Veyron replica.

That thing is the most terrifying thing I've ever seen on screen.

That's awesome, just imagine doing stopmotion animation with that

I would love to see Adam make a Lightsaber, and see how he would make one.

*Arnold Schwarzenegger wants to know your location.*

A true Fan Makes His one T-800 (literally seen a video of a guy making his own and took 5+ years to make)

I've been wanting one of those since i was a kid!!!!

3D Print T-800 Endoskeleton Tutorial, next video please.

the skull doesnt look to full scale

Love it that this shows how much of an Awsome nerd Adam is.

badass adam good work with the t-800

what if the T-800 comes to life

Myth Busters on Discovery Science!!

Oil paint! Ha, thanks for the tip! I needed this, and the copper plating.

When Adam brought up that most of the effects in salvation were practical, all I could think about was that CGI Arnie. And then I went to cry in a corner.

3:32-3:36. That fake laugh though...

2:25 Why doesn't the torso line up with the bottom half?

"I'm never coming in here again if you do that" "that'd be awesome."

muito bom esse filme, amei só em assistir, meus parabéns pela produção desse filme. que deus abençoe cada um de vocês...

Use an Arduino to follow you? If you are planning on use image processing, it's quite impossible with a microcontroller. You are gonna need a ARM or microprocessor or something like that, which is much powerfully. Arduino would be great only to control the servo motor in the head. But, this can be done with RC (servos and a radio controller) as well.
