MYTHBUSTERS RETURNS WITH A BANGJamie Hyneman and Adam Savage, the MythBusters, are engineering and construction experts who combine science, special effects and technology to determine the validity of countless popular myths and legends through a series of tests and experiments.
The enigmatic duo are joined by their Build Team: Tory Belleci and Kari Byron, who specialise in the creation of prototypes, models and toys, and Grant Imahara, an animatronics engineer.
Their quest is simple - to uncover the truth behind popular rumours, urban and Internet myths and historical claims using their trademark quirky, action-packed and often unconventional methods. With the help of the Discovery Channel Myth Busters Build Team, Adam and Jamie are literally having a blast as they use special effects, science and one very abused crash test dummy to try and solve myths or see if they stand up to the test.
Are elephants scared of mice?
Would James Bond really be able to deflect a bullet with his watch and can Captain Jack Sparrow fend off his enemies by loading cutlery into cannons?
No myth is safe as Adam and Jamie create more MythBusters mayhem. The results are often surprising – and explosive.
