All these experts in the comments made me realize why they had to make those revisit episodes.

"It doesn't look fast enough!"
Proceeds to paint the car yellow
"That's a fast car!"
Orks approve.

I love having the narrator whispering in my left ear.

All the mods to the car make me think that they chose this myth for this episode because they had Jessi and she was totally in her element with metal work and souping up a car.

45:54 I can’t believe those cars still drove after all they put them through! THAT is the most amazing part 😂😂

Literally just a few weeks ago I was struggling to watch full episodes of Mythbusters anywhere, I’m so happy to see they have their own place now for full videos, thank you for uploading.

Thank you for this episode. Now I finally learned what happened to my first car that my parents sold on me when I went to college. Lol

Love how Adam mentioned reading something in a chain letter. Those were the times when E-Mail was our social media. 😂

This and Psych were the only shows both my wife and kids would watch with me. My children must have seen 100 episodes of MB growing up. What an incredible way to have exposed their young minds to critical thinking, science, even what healthy work relationships look like.

As a merchadiser for a certain beverage company that uses aluminum cans, I HIGHLY recommend wiping or rinsing the tops of your cans before drinking it

Actually tried skipping a car when I was younger. Had a friend with me. The water was similar in length of more. I also llearned that 50 mph (was actually going around 60) wasn't quite enough to make it.

"The car is armed!"
Yeah, it's Mythbusters.

Jessi was one of my favorite celebrities alive. What a awesome person she was

Lol the rat nonchalantly poops as Jamie holds it 4:24. Thanks for the upload, minor audio flaws aside, at least the music isn't weirdly cranked up on this one.

This show is timeless and always relevant... well, right until "cellphone" and they pull out this ancient thing with actual physical buttons that was certainly modern for the time. Decades, and it still holds up. That's good TV.
