Force of Nature Myths | MythBusters | Season 5 Episode 22 | Full Episode 

wasnt survivor man, dual survivor also on discovery? tastes differ but i think we can all agree this era of media was amazing

Expedition Unknown

Back when discovery featured at least a slight smidgen of discovery in their shows.

​@@wingerding this show is when it started going downhill because the mythbusters certainly weren't doing science.

​ @themonsterunderyourbed9408 Nah, for me at least; Discovery wasn't about science -it was about learning about new/different but interesting and often important things. Mythbusters, Dirty Jobs, How it's made, etc. are not 'science' shows but are educational -you leave having learned something of substance, about the real world. The damage that shows like MBs did to Discovery; was being 'too popular' -they brought in a lot of new 'outside the demo' viewers (aka money) and the executives greedily wanted to not just keep them but lure in more; personality driven reality shows and fake science shows was their method.

"I don't remember eating that...." We've all been there after a bad morning bowl movement

Food Theory did a series of videos on the same idea. Testing a variety, and then mixing together the ones that worked best to get an ultimate cure I believe (its been a bit since i watched it so might be mis-remembering) They ended up with a cooled Peanut-butter/honey mixture Cooled to give a sensation count to the eat And a thick texture so it sticks in your mouth and keeps the relief when not actively eating/drinking it, so it lasts longer

And, ironically, setting off hot/cold receptors in close proximity simulates or worsens pain in some cases (vsauce did this on mind field by laying his arm on a tray of alternating warm/cool hotdogs, causing a burning sensation)

I forget the name of the dish, but I had some Thai food that had mint in it, and it definitely made it hotter.

They're migratory

my best guess is that mice tend to run towards small holes to scurry away from danger and elephants have trunks...

but the fish has get shot

Well.. that and when Jamie popped up with the minigun…

43:03 you sure

I was asking myself that as well, everything was natural coloured and then there pops up a bright white mouse. I’m surprised that they didn’t thought of that yet.

if you have person scared of mice, they don't care what color it is.

​@@maleficent3333true but elephants are not like people

@@GOAT_GOATERSON they are animals like people, and think in a way of human child, with greater memory capacity, I think it is fair to say they are generally scared of small rodents in general.

@@maleficent3333 Nail atop of head 😎

agreed, that sentence aged sadly really really bad :o(

They pretty much always miss the point of the myths they "bust". They also bust them with shoddy methodology and have highly questionable conclusions... But you know SCIENCE™!!! They always yell it every episode and plebs eventually believe it.

Veery accurate

I saw couple videos where dogs were trying to put water on a living flapping fish on the ground. Also saw a video of not sure if it was gorilla or a orangutan but saving a drowning animal from a river or a pond. But either way it seems that the elephant is scared of it for sure, if he would just want to be careful he would not back out.

Several social species have a helping instinct/desire which sometimes helps other species. Obviously humans care the most as the most social species. Dolphins have helped humans in need. Dogs even view humans as their family. Elephants have chased away lions from rhinos. Elephants can also ask humans for help with gestures. I've seen an Adélie penguin rescued some Emperor penguin chicks from a South polar skua.

yoghurt and butter are the exact same as milk, like they said high fat dairy products. havent heard of oil before but apparently breads good

banana chips should also work. it is because of the fat that attracts the capsaicin and binds it somehow.

Us paler folk are more build for hard liquor than spice.

@@TheGreatThicc Just depends on how often you eat it.

Yeah, when you think about it, fishing is terribly cruel ... I wouldn't like getting yanked up in to the air by a triple-pronged barbed hook in my mouth.

@@RB-bd5tz well exactly atleast a gun would be pretty instant I really struggle to see the difference.

it’s called minigun because it’s a “mini” version of a way larger thing that’s twice as fast

But you can shoot it

🙄🙄

If you have some fish in a barrel and you shoot at the barrel, chances are you will hit a fish as they effectively can not go anywhere, you don't need to be able to see them. This is why the saying means that whatever the person is referring to is very easy.

The saying is from the old days when they stored MANY fish in a single barrel. It doesn't matter how light refracts, the bullet is going to hit a fish because the barrel would have been full of fish. Mythbusters completely miss the point again.

"The climate of Cape Town is Mediterranean, with very mild, rainy winters and warm to hot, sunny summers. The city is located in the South African Republic, on the southwest coast. In summer, temperatures are not excessively high because of the influence of the ocean, though sometimes a hot and dry wind called Berg, able to raise the temperature to around 35 °C (95 °F), blows from the mountains. On the contrary, a strong southern breeze called Cape Doctor often blows in summer, cooling and cleaning the air. Above the top of Table Mountain, the flat-topped mountain overlooking the city, about a thousand meters (3,300 feet) high, a layer of clouds often forms, which the city's inhabitants call in a colloquial manner "tablecloth". Even though the winter is mild, there can be some cold and windy days. On the coldest nights of the year, the temperature can drop to around freezing. At other times, the warm wind from the northern mountains can blow in this season as well, so much so that the temperature can reach 30 °C (86 °F) even in winter"

they misread "côte d'ivoire"

It gets below freezing in lots of areas of Africa

What happened here?

Literally just commented the same thing I see no difference the fish is going to end up dead either way.

Oh come on. They just don't harm animals on the show gratuitously. We all know how life works.

@@marietighe6328 yeah but no

Its television. People will critisize anything My second grade teacher once told the class that you shouldn't slap an actor because their television persona broke up with another persona. They follow a script I miss when people had logical thinking. They should teach it in school

Considering that being shot is likely faster and the pressure waves from bullets entering the water would stun the fish it's somewhat ironic. But then there are animal cruelty regulations and guidelines, "no animal was harmed in the production of this movie"...

Kind of sensitive aren't you?

The narrator equated it with fishing. No one thinks Americans invented fishing. Things do not have to have originated in a place to be important to them.

Well they needed a control. Also they later got revenge by taking her to a spicy resturant and playing the "first to grab water looses" game.

That only offends vegans so no harm, no foul.

Oof!!!

God damn

thats what i was thinking, both elephants move their trunks out the way as well.

Source? "I read it somewhere"? "Somebody claimed"?
