Tour of Adam Savage's Home Office 

Hey i just want to notify norm that green beret knives dont stab. They slit throats in pure darkness. Those are some hard bastards lemme tell ya

Davis Tuck I’m guessing you went to the green berets?

@@ParkersPlayground hells no. But my grandfather did

@@dak4465 Nice, i'd train with them, but i wouldn't last a week

@@ParkersPlayground same here.

thats a story ill bet he likes to tell her grand kids and will last years in the family

Kale Mercer I had to watch it twice. Then I thought I guarantee the first comment is about that story. I was right.

Kale Mercer I agree!

i had to do the same thing. This man is amazing.

and the government agent lied- he just used mass spying network to get suspicious message, there was never a wrong number. Dun dun duuuun ;)

Tested what's up with the Oscar Award

But god i hate norm im sorry. Id ear to ear excited. All the time.

hes has brass knuckles, those are illegal in Canada

Louis TheEleventh illegal in the USA. You can get in some deep crap for carrying those. I don't know if they are illegal to own. I think each state is a little different.

In quite a few states they are fine if they are a "paperweight" in which the only difference between the two are what you call them.

Yeah I watched a lot of Mythbusters and only found these videos recently, Adam is even more interesting than I ever would have imagined :D

datex8 Its true :) Though from an engineering perspective some people might get frustrated by his relatively sloppy craftmanship - of which may be partly due to hastened crafting for the purpose of showing the full process in a single short video and a limited amount of time to spend on it.

Yeah, I can totally understand that, but I still think he's very charismatic :D

datex8 Yup, very likeable nerdy :)

yeah but don't zap him with electricity if you watch his reaction to Grant, Tory and Kari, I don't think I'd want to be on the receiving end of what was said later that being said, he still has a LOT of cool stuff and some great stories

your picture sums up that comment.

collecting stamps?

the most obscure hobby of mine that i am willing to share is knife collecting

I have a small shrine dedicated to literally anything batman . Even if its something silly and cheap someone got me as a gag it doesnt get opened and it goes in the collection lol

@@cjc1216 Batcave!... or batshelf!

He lip syncs and acts out directed.

@@falkormoonchild4822 lol no

mechanicaleyeproductions oh my god I thought it was like a stress ball lol

i have a few family members who's have had breast cancer too. I thank him too.

My mom, as well as my aunt and at least two first cousins (her daughters; dad's side). Making the world a better place *really does* run in Adam's genes... No, he indeed may not be doing so in the same capacity as his grandfather has... but what Adam is, is an exemplary human being! Not only that, but his contributions to Mythbusters and everything since, when all combined, _definitely_ qualify him as making our lives better! ☺️

+dontfeedthecode or an academy award!

I kept waiting for him to show it and what it was for!

+scarletfluerr my money says it's for prop/ set work on a movie.

& Anduril, the Flame of the West! (I think)

+Alex Smith No that was actually a pepper grinder you played with! LOL Just kidding! I know someone who has one of those pepper grinder computers/calculator and I had no clue what it was until I saw this video.

+Steven Holt air duster

+Steven Holt Can of decompressed air, and you're done in no time at all!

A can of decompressed air sounds pretty useless

phillip bayley Hahaha!

Spoke my mind

So funny!

+Gami Cross The machine from Person of Interest is real. They NSA is spying on you all.

Big difference between NSA intercepting your calls and leaving a message about a thermal detonator on some stranger's answering machine! :)

That was a lie to not reveal how they actually found out about it. We know for a fact that the NSA does intercept all electronic communication and computer algorithms will react to certain words and phrases which then gets the audio or text set aside for closer inspection by a human. This was revealed by the Australian government in the late 1990s when they admitted to being a part of the US program called Echelon that intercepted all electronic communications in the world. When that story came out they changed the name to TIA (Total Informational Awareness) which they thought sounded less ominous than Echelon. Every year since then I hear one or two stories of a suspect of some non-terrorist crime being set free because it turns out the DEA or FBI or state police got an initial tip from the NSA and they could not adequately fabricate a reason for making the arrest or seizures that they then make based on the illegally obtained information. Probably hundreds of people a year do get convicted based off of such illegally obtained information but they find or manufacture enough other evidence before making the arrest so we never find out about the illegal wiretapping at all in those cases.

yeah they "accidently" heard about it.

Cheeky Squirrels great idea, just praying for norman to leave

You only will be able to purchase both as unstoppable androids, with norm programmed in search for butt holes to penetrate. So you better buy a real love doll of your favor. Same inventor btw.

Machine it

Funny thing is Adam actually also has a replica of Adam. Watch his space suit videos, he uses it to fit patterns

Pretty much everything he spoke of in this video can be found through the rpf, etsy, or shapeways. So there you go you now have most of Adam's contacts, or where he gets his stuff.

First step is to do something rather than watch videos on youtube you wish to be rich like him when your not even trying hard enough

Steven Blue *You're. And uh, doing something about it is not exclusive of watching inspiring RU-vid videos. Besides, what right do you have to say I'm not trying hard? Last I knew, you don't know me.

AdobeExcel you're right, everything here has been gotten with either money or contacts, Adam is just an empty person. I bet I'll have the same or better stories if I had his money and his contacts,and his life

Damn! 😆

or the brand new broken buttwhistle, second one ever made.

Or Gandalf's staff resting nonchalantly against the radiator...

+Nightmare096 Haha. First thing I thought when over. No Hal 2000? BTW HAL is IBM with each letter moved back once!

Also the Totoro figurine

It’s a replica. The guy who made the Lord of the Rings movies has the originals

He actually won that, he was the guy behind the costumes for Star Wars II and many other movies that's how he gets all this stuff

David Charles No.

David Charles Adam was a model/prop-maker at Industrial Light and Magic, he hasn't had anything to do with *costumes* for any movie. I don't know where that Oscar is from, but he did not win it and it is most likely a replica.

+Jacob Vivianne Mellbin Not true actually. After the 1950's, the Academy started making winners sign an agreement that they or their heirs could not sell their Oscar without first offering it back to the Academy for the paltry sum of $1. And any original Oscar pre-1950's is going to be extremely expensive if it ever goes up for sale.

He has an episode where he talks about the Oscar and how he obtained it, he didn’t make Star Wars costumes but did make models for episode one at ILM and none of his ships that he designed made it into the move.

Its just a pity Keanu isnt Liverpudlian.

Haha! ...Savage

Yeah, I was looking at the Hal9000 optic too.

True say...

Just the way he constantly points at shit bugs the living fuck out of me. And he's stiff as a slab of mdf. Loosen up, stop fucking rigidly pointing, and stop trying to complete peoples sentences, huge pet peeves after watching him.

I never noticed the pointing until I read your comment and now it's bugging the shit out of me too! lol

+deathStixxx aahahaha my bad bro. It gets on my nerves so bad, I mean I like the kid and everything, and of course I'm envious that he spends so much time with the most interesting man in the world, but geez man bring the awkwardness down a little 😂

Yeah he's very socially awkward. I would love to see someone like Adam, work with Adam, lol if that makes sense.

"Adam Savage", "Q", "MacGiver" (and many more) are the same spied genius author behind, meanwhile four decades in advance. That fact allows a glimpse of explanation of his supreme leadership.

Yeah I'm still waiting...

ha

ajre82 maybe it was at james house that day

It's called a "visible dog", like the visible man and visible woman models. I had one when I was young, about 20 years ago. You can still buy them I believe.

Das pretty neat.

That sentence is getting more ridiculous every month

Everything?...... :) i know what your thinking of LMAO

Sebastian I wonder why

Because he doesn't show his kids in his professional work.

I thought it was art. I liked it as art actually.

Directed to let this film set appear realistic.

Indeed

Tested strandbeest....beach animal in Dutch

it's really not that interesting

When you get a tour of your doctor's office, do you inspect his diplomas and the quality of the framing? No. It's just an Oscar, lots of people have them. Plus, everyone probably already knew about it and you're just super late to the party.

Denisowator "When you get a tour of your doctor's office, do you inspect his diplomas and the quality of the framing?"Isn't that what he just did with his shelf? I take it you don't know where its from then. Everyone knows You can get a doctorate from years of college. Like you wouldn't have a hundred questions If a person had a real Oscar on a shelf.

It is a clear replica, one you can buy for $10 at Universal Studios. The base of the Oscar in this video is vastly different than the actual award.

“It’s really not that interesting” “lots of people have them” omfg some of the more absurd comments I’ve ever read lol. He doesn’t have one, and he was probably a little embarrassed and thank god fuckin norm had the wherewithal to not ask about it.

Very attentive. "They" are one master's voice and any amount of characters more, here including concepts, noises, music. The guys are play actors to spied audio. Any question?

The Red Viper at first I didn't like Norms awkwardness but I have grown fond of him and I enjoy his sudden spurs of social incompetence.

Sebastian Larsson give this guy a break. .he is another robot replica of adam ..

The Red Viper It's hilarious to watch him point at every fucking object in Adams office though! (x

YouOnlyLiveTwice Repeating someone is a sing that, that human being is listening to you.

+The Rider It's passion, not arrogance or bragging.

Long ass comment. He can brag and boast but it doesn't sound arrogant because he's passionate. That was hard

He doesn't sound arrogant to me. He's in a fortunate position to be able to afford all this stuff without getting himself into debt. If that's what he likes spending his money on, I say good on him.

+Headrock You're never too old to learn anything my friend :)

***** Oh yeah? Tell that to my father - he got his first cellphone 15 years ago, at the age of 55, and he still has trouble using most of the functions on it. It's a simple monochrome Nokia (the one that had Snake on it).

+Headrock You're forgetting just who's defensive systems you will need to defeat. You can guarantee it will be disguised beyond your ability to detect, and since The Hyneman is his buddy, it may have offensive capabilities as well. This week on Mythbusters: can a viewer find Adams office, break in, rob him and survive?
