History Funny / MythBusters

-->'''Grant:''' [[GradeSystemSnark Look out, people! It's coming through!]]

* The entirety of the Top 25 episode, where they list their favorite things about the show when it isn't being awesome. Namely, thing #7, which is Jamie Hyneman. At one point, it compares him to a walrus while swimming. Also, #3 is Adam and Tory hurting themselves...
** What really sold the Jamie segment was Grant's comment at the end, after a string of "impressions" of Jamie that consisted of Grant holding his fingers up in front of his face to simulate a mustache in various moods:
--->'''Grant:''' You can't use that. He will ''kill'' me.
** [[http://dsc.discovery.com/videos/mythbusters-epic-failures.html #22, a.k.a. Failure Is Always an Option]], first opens with Adam, Tory, and Kari [[HilariousOuttakes failing to introduce the next moment properly.]] It all culminates with Jamie saying this:
--->'''Jamie:''' Can we just roll the [[SoundEffectBleep *honk honk*]] tape?
*** Adam makes an offhand remark during the above clip: "This doesn't happen to me; it usually happens to Jamie". This is actually a CallBack to a previous behind-the-scenes special (''[=MythBusters=] Revealed''), which features over a ''minute's'' worth of clips of Jamie getting tongue-tied. Including one ''during'' the interview for the special.
** The special opens with a mock AvengersAssemble introduction, with Adam dropping in from the ceiling in mountain climbing gear. He then proceeds to attempt to follow Kari, Tory, and Grant as they walk off-screen to start compiling moments, only to get partway before he reaches [[IncrediblyLamePun the end of his rope]] and gets pulled back.

* In “Trail Blazers”: They have to buy a bra to see if it gets electrocuted by a defibrillator... unfortunately Tory is the closest to the ballistics dummy build so... he has to go bra shopping. Grant being uncomfortable with the whole thing makes it all the more hilarious.

* After a full episode of building up to re-testing the JATO rocket car myth, they finally get to the actual test... and right as the car approaches the ramp, it [[spoiler:abruptly explodes, shocking everyone]]. Obviously, nobody on the scene expected it, and from the set-up, neither does anyone watching for the first time.

-->'''Adam:''' PEOPLE WALK ON BRIDGES LIKE THIS **EVERY DAY?** THIS IS **TERRIFYING!**

-->'''Adam:''' *chuckles* Thanks for Nothing

* In the "Waterslide Wipeout" episode, Adam drops his roll of duct tape -- which instantly zips out of reach down the ramp and doesn't stop rolling until it ''flies off the end'' and into the water, tracked by the camera all the while.
-->'''Adam:''' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4W8EwuMOi8I ...Can I get another roll of duct tape?]]
** If you listen carefully, you'll notice that even [[TheComicallySerious Jamie]] starts to crack up (from off-camera)
* The episode where the myth of an empty beer bottle is a deadlier weapon than a full one involved making a gelatin brain to wobble inside of a clear "skull". After making the test, there was a segment where Adam, paraphrased, told it:

* The No Pain, No Gain episode give us this gem after the confirmation of the myth that women can take pain better than men:

* The "No Pain, No Gain" episode features (as might be expected) several myths about pain. During the introduction to the segment, Jamie chips in:
-->'''Jamie:''' I got one. You're a pain in the ''[[[SoundEffectBleep WHEEEE!]]]''

* When testing the RPG (Rocket-Propelled Grenade) vs. Handgun myth from the movie ''Film/{{Red}}'', [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z5elJNyLVEQ the Build Team test-fires an RPG at a flimsy old trailer]] "Just to see what it does." The resulting high-speed shot is one of the funniest, and most awesome, in the show's history. The RPG leaves a [[ImpactSilhouette perfectly round hole, with four vertical lines coming off it from the RPG's stabilizing fins.]] Then the whole trailer vanishes in an epic explosion.

* In Mini-Myth Mayhem, one of the six myths they test is a bamboo cannon from "[[Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries]]" Episode 19 "Arena". Tory, gets the bright idea to try and explain the goals of their test while next to the active fuse of a cannon. He's so nervous that he keeps flubbing his lines and eventually decides to just book it and try again the lines again from a safer distance..

** Kari's journey od self-discovery in some of the alcohol myths. When taste-testing low-quality and high-quality vodkas (to test if filtering bad vodka a bunch of times makes it as good as the good stuff) Kari can barely tell the difference, coming to the conclusion "I'm a cheap date!" Later, testing BeerGoggles, tipsy Kari is aware she's judging the male pictures she's being shown more harshly, and wonders if she's a mean drunk.

* In the "Waterslide Wipeout" episode, Adam drops his roll of duct tape -- which instantly zips out of reach down the ramp and doesn't stop rolling until it ''flies'' off the end and into the water, tracked by the camera all the while.
-->'''Adam:''' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4W8EwuMOi8I Can I have another roll?]]

* From “Duct Tape Hour”: The first myth entails testIng the lifting strength of Duct Tape... their small-scale test: ...duct-taping Adam to a piece of plywood.

* After the Drain Disaster myth had been tested, [[spoiler: and eventually confirmed,]] Adam stands with a manhole cover with the numeral 2 on it. What Adam says is golden:

---> '''Jamie''' "Adam. [[spoiler: It's the same island.]]"\\
'''Adam''' ''[FacePalm]''

** You can tell from the name of the first "Alcohol Myths" episode that it's going to be very funny, but quite ''how'' funny, you might not guess. Suffice to say, Adam, Jamie, and Kari are all hilarious drunks, but the highlight has to be Adam's attempt to test claims that exercise sobers you up quickly by running on a treadmill... which he falls off of. Twice. This is then followed by Adam testing the claim that a slap to the face (provided by Jamie) will sober you up. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2seiHua3Fc The high-speed footage was hysterical]], and made even better by the fact that ''it actually worked''.

** The gigantic tin of beans, the long build-up led to an amazing explosion and the windows getting [[CoveredInGunge caked in beans]].

** And again when it's revisited in the two hour Top 25 [=MythBusters=] Moments episode. Kari's voice-over of just what the phrase "bull in a china shop" means is accompanied by a montage of Tory breaking things and hurting himself.

* The episode where they visit NASA to investigate the moon landing, and Grant spots a worryingly-labeled alarm:

* Adam plays with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-XbjFn3aqE&NR=1 sulfur hexafluoride]] in the “Viral Video special.”

* The "[[http://dsc.discovery.com/videos/mythbusters-lego-ball.html Giant Ball of Lego bricks]]" myth from the Website/YouTube special. A large group of volunteers spent two weeks using a million Lego bricks to build a seven-foot-tall ball, start it rolling down a course to see if it will damage a car at the end... only to see it [[EpicFail break apart half-way down.]]

* From “Duct Tape Hour”: The first myth entails testIng the lifting strength of Duct Tape... their small scale test:... duct-taping Adam to a piece of plywood.

** The special opens with a mock AvengersAssemble introduction, with Adam dropping in from the ceiling in mountain climbing gear. He then proceeds to attempt to follow Kari, Tory, and Grant as they walk off-screen to start compiling moments, only to get part way before he reaches [[IncrediblyLamePun the end of his rope]] and gets pulled back.

* Tory, Kari, and Grant trying to catch greased pigs. Tory and Grant come up with overly-elaborate devices that are supposed to make the pigs easier to catch. Kari ends up beating them both with [[BoringButPractical a pair of gloves with fur on them]].

'''Tory:''' Okay, you first. Two words!\\
'''Grant:''' ''(cracks up laughing)'' I-I can't do this!\\
'''Tory:''' [[TemptingFate Sounds like...]]\\

'''Tory:''' YEAH! It put out the fire! It exploded and put out the fire!\\

'''Tory:''' [[MoodWhiplash It's spraying! - ew, it's raining foam]].\\

** Granted, the current going to ground wasn't enough to actually trip the GFCI which is backed up by the lack of a lethal current going through their test dummy.

*** Another better comment goes "Be the thunderstorm. Heavy as a plant. The footfalls of [[Franchise/{{Godzilla}} Godzilla.]]

'''Kari''': [[PrecisionFStrike F]][[SoundEffectBleep uc]][[AccidentalPun k]]!\\

'''Adam''': Yeah, I got a couple of looks like this, But I got looks like this ''Makes a WTF expression''. People driving by, they saw the pigs, they look in the cabin and went like “oh it’s the Mythbusters guy”

** Adam is failing to make His hovercraft, and he's already gone over his budget ''twice'', so he's feeling a little down. So the cameraman tries to comfort him:

* When testing the RPG (Rocket-Propelled Grenade) vs. Handgun myth from the movie RED, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z5elJNyLVEQ the Build Team test-fires an RPG at a flimsy old trailer]] "Just to see what it does." The resulting high-speed shot is one of the funniest, and most awesome, in the show's history. The RPG leaves a [[ImpactSilhouette perfectly round hole, with four vertical lines coming off it from the RPG's stabilizing fins.]] Then the whole trailer vanishes in an epic explosion.

-->'''Kari''' That was a [[PunctuatedForEmphasis license -- revoking -- parking job!]]

** The coffee creamer fireball, a classic MassOhCrap moment for Grant, Kari, and Tory.

** There is a car suspended from a crane. Kari: "Next on [=MythBusters=], find out why we can't get car insurance."

* "Robo-Turkey" in the Bird Car Tip myth. Grant rigs up a frozen turkey with robotics to make its tiny featherless wings flap and its legs rumble. It's disturbing but it's also a ''naked cybernetically enhanced turkey flopping around on the roof of a car.''

** "If it's worth doing, it's worth overdoing."

*** Tory has a ludicrous leadfoot... on a ''pottery wheel.'' Yes, his first instinct when he comes across a pedal-powered pottery wheel is to floor it. It sends clay ''flying'' across the workshop. His first pot ends up being ''very'' small as a result.

** They stick a nametag that says "[[JustForFun/{{Hello}} hello]] my name is ninja" on the ballistic bust being used for the test, just for kicks.
