Everyone always gets so concerned with the relationship between Adam and Jamie, but can we just appreciate the fact that Jamie pulled Adam out of his office for the sole reason of sharing a new piece of knowledge/understanding? He knew and understood exactly what Adam would take from that failed attempt? That is the best kind of working relationship.

2:58 It is true that, if you held your face in exactly the same position for a year or two, your muscles would freeze like that. I'm a paraplegic and I haven't walked in over 10 years. My ankles froze into a neutral position about a year and a half in. I was also told by my physical therapy team not to sleep sitting up too much because I would end up locked in a sitting position. If you don't stretch your muscles, they do freeze.

Isn't that like frozen shoulder? When I busted my shoulder, my doctor told me to try and move it (in very small increments ofcourse) as soon as I could, as long as it didn't hurt otherwise it would lock up from lack of motion.

@@OverMotoren Same with anything, I have goats and if they get attacked by a dog or whatever you need to get them up and about again asap or they freeze up. While they are down you need to work their joints thru the full range of movement a few times every few hours or they (muscles) shrink up and lactic acid builds up which greatly restricts movement to the stage they can't walk. Reversing it can take your time for a couple of days and is painful for the goat. Any more than say, 5 or 6 days down and it's a dead goat (not) walking.

What episode of myth busters was this

@davidbeach4682 2 года назад

I've been a teacher of physics for 30 years. I have no higher compliment I could give to the Mythbusters concept and Adam and Jamie and the others than to say that I have long wished to have the budget, space, and time to have the lab experiences in physics courses be more like Mythbusters. No greater learning experience could have been given to students than to present something to be tested, have them work out how they would test it, how would they measure it, and how they would analyze the results. It would have been wicked.

@horndude77 2 года назад

Here's an idea for testing the 'your face will stick that way' myth. I play french horn. I brought my wife to a conference once and she thought it was hilariously great that everyone had 'horn face' as she described it. So I agree that in the long term your face reflects how you use it. It seems plausible to get a bunch of people and see if it's guessable better than chance whether a person is a horn player or not. (You could swap out horn player for other instruments or professions potentially as well.)

@M_Northstar 2 года назад

It is, however, also true (a tautology in fact) that if you don't stop making a face, you will keep making that face, and so, in effect, your face will stay that way, at least in the short term 😆

I miss mythbusters. I used to watch that show every week. Thank you Adam

Seeing "what happened" was way better than seeing "what to do" with statements ranging from, "I reject your reality and substitute my own." to, "Apparently I need a cookie." Holding up a mangled part and saying, "Well, there's your problem." Thoroughly love your present format. Especially leaving politics out of it. I can't avoid it elsewhere and I love that this is an oasis of non-political respite. Really! Thanks!

At 2:00 -- I once read that Abe Lincoln was about to choose a Cabinet member, but all his advisors wanted someone else. "I don't like the way he looks," said Lincoln. "No one can control the way they look!" his advisors responded. "He can by the time he's 40 (years old)" was the explanation.

Hello from Bundaberg, QLD! Where your ginger beer is made! Have you tried their other flavours? The Bugundy, Sarsaparilla (you would call it strong root beer), and the Pinapple and Coconut are especially nice.

Wasn't that crushed car episode when they painted the saying "Failure is always an Option" or something like that on the truck trailer?

I think Adam's talking about the Handpan, and perhaps specifically the Hang Drum and its more contemporary copies.

Stories like this make me wish that Jaime would do some livestream Q&A stuff.

“It’s just 5 people farting around in a garage” is usually where the best stuff comes from.

"Don't make that face! Your face will freeze that way!" "Mom, is that what happened to you?"

Regarding the last question: hang or handpan drum is what he was referring to

In the Flatus Containment Unit is found a Class 5 free roaming vapor. A real nasty one, too!

I was at the Bundaberg ginger beer factory the other day, so many flavours of ginger beer to choose from

Ofc discovery wanted to give you as much freedom as possible. That freedom was getting kids like my little sister to watch a channel they wouldnt normally watch. Without you and Jamie, my sister and i wouldve never found how its made. You made them a ton of money

I know a lady who broke her arm and the break was fairly bad from what I remember. When the cast came off, she wouldn't move the arm at all. Maybe it was painful or just psychological, I'm not sure. Regardless, she walked around with her arm awkwardly up in the air kind of out to the side. A period of time went by and her arm basically started to die. Physicians told her that unless she started using her arm they would end up having to amputate it. That provided enough impetus and she started to use her arm again. I imagine there was significant atrophy but amputation was avoided. The face getting stuck reference made me think of that lady (and her unsettling arm).

On that truck smash... it always bothered me that they didn't link the 2 cables together and put them on a pulley. And running a similar cable between the 2 towtrucks through the pulley so it wouldn't matter if one accelerated a bit quicker than the other.
