I used to not believe Adam and Jaime never really liked each other all too much, I remembered all the good memories of the show. But looking back at the earlier episodes and it's pretty obvious of their differences lol. Glad it never ruined the show for me, love the Mythbusters gang
These two respect and hate each other and that’s why it’s so funny
Yeah, it's the same with Top Gear I think. They're all professional enough to get over not liking each other on a personal level and it makes the shows so much better Also, it was great hearing Jamie talk Adam up and give him a few compliments when he got down about the tape failing. Jamie seems pretty socially awkward too so it really shows the respect
Those old episodes were perfect. Thank you for making these available to us!
Oh gosh! I cannot believe it, I honestly thought they wouldn't be able to get the license for the older seasons because on how they uploaded the last seasons first! However, I'm really glad I'm seeing this! Thank you! Edit: One of the reasons I'm excited, is simply because this series was my whole childhood. I watch this on cable TV every single time after school.
@@heikkiaho6605 Banijay is the company that now owns the rights to the show. Here's hoping they'll upload every single episode.
do you agree that it became better every season?
@@rodrigoneves135 I did my own research and you are absolutely right. While I thought it was odd that they've had several MythBusters episodes up in full HD for months now, I had no idea they owned the rights. I just assumed Discovery Channel owned the rights, and I've binge-watched MythBusters episodes lately in case they would've been get taken down. Thank you! A huge thanks to Banijay as well for giving us a chance to watch one of the best TV shows ever in HD on KZhead.
@@rodrigoneves135 oh wow :O didn't realize, thats super amazing and super rare
@@heikkiaho6605 Right? It's a breath of fresh air to see such a beloved show being made easily available.
the safety violations in all of these videos get me going i love it
Yeah it's wild 😂 I was just a young kid watching these with my dad when these first aired. Now I've been in construction for almost 10 years and these are wild
I still cannot believe that they censored (had to censor?) a piece of transparent rubber hose coming out of a plastic dummy. I remember seeing that scene for the first time on TV years ago and thinking for a second that there was something wrong with my set.. :D
yeah, it's dark times.
Is your apostrophe in lieu of an i- or a wa-? Both are true, just wanna know your angle @@vibeslide
even more hilarious is that they felt the neeed to sencor that and not the fridge magnet with realistic cats asshole and pussy :D
it's a joke! it's not even like they pixelated it.
@@gavindron7511 -i. And thanks a lot for the question. I'm not a native speaker and didn't understand your question at first. The more you know.
On the "Barrel Myth", for those of you who don't know, it's actually NOT a myth, it's the lyrics from a well-known Irish folk song with several titles. Some folks call it "The Bricklayer's Lament", some call it "The Sic (sick)Note", and some call it by how it starts out, which is "Dear Boss". The song relates the PURELY FICTITIOUS story of a construction worker (from around the turn of the 18th-19th centuries), who had the great-granddaddy of all bad days. The lyrics vary, from singer to singer, but my personal favorite version goes like this: 🎶Dear boss, I write this note to you, To tell you of me plight. For, at the time of writing, I am not a pretty sight. Me body is all black and blue, Me face a deathly grey, And I hope you'll understand Why Paddy's not at work today. I was working on the 14th floor, Some bricks I had to clear, And tossin' 'em down from such a height Was not a good idea. The foreman wasn't very pleased, He bein' an awkward sod, And he said I had to carry 'em Down the ladders in me hod. Now, shifting all those bricks by hand It seemed so awf'ly slow, So I hoisted up a barrel, And secured the rope below. But, in me haste to do the job, I was too blind to see, That a barrel full of building bricks T'was heavier than me. When I came down and united the not The barrel fell like led, And, clinging tightly to the rope, I started up instead. I shot up like a rocket, 'til to my dismay I found, Halfways up I met the bloody barrel comin' down. Now, the barrel broke me left shoulder, As to the ground it sped, And when I reached the top, I banged the pulley with me head. I still hung on, Tho' numbed and shocked, From this almighty blow, And the barrel spilled out half its bricks Some fourteen floors below. Now, when the bricks had fallen, From the barrel to the ground, I then outweighed the barrel, And I started off back down. I fell like Haley's comet, Falling from the sky and then, Halfways down I met the bloody barrel once again. Now, the force of this collision, Halfways down the office block, Caused multiple contusions, And a nasty state of shock. Still clinging tightly to the rope, I headed for the ground, And I landed on the broken bricks, Which were all scattered 'round. Now, as I lay there, bleeding, Sure I thought I'd seen the worst, When the barrel struck the pulley wheel, And didn't the bottom burst. Bricks showered down upon me, Sure I didn't have a hope, And as I was losing consciousness, I let go the bloody rope. Now, the barrel, being heavier, It started down once more. It landed right across me, As I lay there on the floor. It broke 3 ribs, and my right arm, And I can only say, That I hope you'll understand why I am not at work today.🎵"
I was surprised they didn't mention the song(s). Funnily enough, after I heard the song (The Corries' version, titled The Bricklayer's Song, with lyrics mostly the same as above) many years ago, I did idly wonder about the plausibility of such a sequence of events occurring in real life. I would add, however, that just because it's a song doesn't mean it's not also a myth (or vice versa): these things tend to mutate.
I've only heard the dubliners do it didn't know it was older
This is way better than season 9 and so on. Is great when they show them building, going shopping, doing everything.
Sometimes a lower budget is what a show needs to be good...
Oh yeah, I forgot they were showing them looking for scraps to fit their needs. That was actually interesting, but was left out of later episodes. Reminds me a bit of that show "Scrapheap challenge".
The issue they had is that the thin stream was not under enough pressure. If they could have made the urination more accurate they would have gotten a continuous stream instead of discrete droplets.
Location shoots are difficult, expensive, tedious (retakes, background interference, e.g.) and fun for *_everyone EXCEPT_* the cast and crew. (There are certainly exceptions, but it's generally more interesting to watch them designing problem-solving solutions in the shop than shopping for components. imho Location shoots suck ... most of the time.
@@d4slaimless I haven't heard of it: good, I take it? I hate to sound like Sheldon, but I prefer the scientific aspects of the "Mythbusters" format over the (admittedly necessary) scrounging for resources. For a dedicated subject matter program, scrounging through junkyards sounds like precisely the thing to queue up, pop a beer, light a blunt and open the pizza to! 😋🍻💙🖖
young adam savage is messing with my head
Watching young Adam after consistently watching him on Tested nowadays, it’s so interesting to see how he’s grown and changed and to hear his retrospective on those days
fr
Yep
Whereas Jamie looks identical, he's an immortal after all.
as a UK roofer, and having never seen this episode before, I’m so happy to see a gin wheel on mythbusters, honestly you’ll be so surprised what those two little bolts can handle, the structural force of one of those little bolts is what keeps any scaffold frame together, and you’d be surprised what level of rope burn (after the rope has chewed through your gloves that is) a tradie would keep enduring before letting £8 of construction product be destroyed (although when we’re speaking about 1m rolls of type 5 lead you would be destroying £100s of what is nowadays mostly a finite resource) Most of the scaffolders I know are normally pretty numbskull people, but you bring up any instance of structural integrity, or connection strength, and they have an almost superhumanly intuitive understanding of the forces involved, it’s honestly impressive, respect your tradesman because they understand massive forces they sometimes don’t even understand they understand, and that’s what makes them work so well, my hats off to all the scaffolders out there
The horse neigh when he shows the bigger hose had me by surprise. 30:48
What in the repressed memories were the editors on?
As a teen some friends and I were walking home from a party when one of them had to go wee. We were right next to a fenced in horse pasture with electric fence that we were all aware of. One of my dumber buddies thought that there is no way he could get a shock peeing on an electric fence! So he went to prove it! Standing in "damp" grass he proceeded to wee and as soon as it hit the fence it blew him back and knocked him out to the point we had to call an ambulance!😂
Same here as a kid. One of my buddies peed on an electric sheep fence, it was very wet and the air was misty, he got shocked.
I've done this and didn't need an ambulance. Wth happened? 😅
@@TheNilla2020 Shock will have made him fall over, then presumably he hit his head on a rock. The actual zapping will have been minimal obviously.
Growing up on the farm, as kids we'd hold the line, to see who could endure the pulses longest. Encountered one, once, dropped me like a rock. I was sick for hours. The farmer / owner, of that particular fence, said, "Oh, that one. Yeah, that'll stop an elephant."
The tale of Murphy and the Bricks goes back much further than 1918, it is based on an incident in a book called At Home With the Jardines, published in 1902 where it appears under the heading "A Letter From Jimmie." This is based on a story (probably fictitious) on page 4 of a newspaper called "The Vicksburg Post" from Vicksburg, Mississippi published on 8 January 1895. which starts off "the law of the attraction of gravitation was well illustrated on Cedar Street the other day. A man stood holding a rope".... this, in turn, may be loosely based on a song from 1885 by Frank Egerton called "How Paddy Stole the Rope" and it could go back even further than that.
Probably as old as the barrel itself, a couple thousand years.
@@jumpman8282 it probably could be just a general lesson on safety, like, don't use barrels that are falling apart, lest this scenario happen to you.
As someone who has pissed on an electric cow fence (thought it was OFF BTW) .. YES YES OMG it does conduct electricity very well.. LOL..
Yup... I did that too when I was a wee (har, har) lad. The slightly older girls at the ranch where I was learning to ride thought it was super funny to get the little boy to piss on the electrified fence. Ouch! :D
My great-uncle had a partial facial paralysis. Everyone in the family including himself always told me that he got it from peeing on an electrical fence during his childhood, late 40s, early 50s. No idea if it was true but it certainly made for a good story.
voltage of electric fence is about 7000 volts instead of the 600 volts of the rail
@@djb5320 My pecker thinks its was more like 50000 hehe.
Yes. People have been shocked from flying a kite next to overhead power lines in wet weather. As soon as the kite touches a live wire there is a path to ground.
So happy to be going back to the older ones now :)😜
10:52 "started to believe the myth didn't happen". The oldest version of the barrel myth dates back to an 1895 newspaper to explain effects of gravity, and used a barrel full of iron chain, which may exit the barrel more easily. Another version has it full of tools. There's are so many versions, it's called an apocryphal story for a reason 😅.
I could spend weeks with Adam, and Jamie would be done with me over coffee. I'd love to have coffee with either of them. It was absolutely incredible to see them in Loveland Colorado during their tour. I got to see these fascinating individuals in person at one of the largest crowds they had on tour. Adam ran past me while exclaiming. "The people in the cheap seats deserve attention too." My quote might be off by a word or two.😢 I was only slightly upset while I had spent everything I had to come see this show, but I watched him carry his energy to others who needed it. Adam gave me the show that I came to see. Jamie was like my wife, bringing him back to reality. These gentlemen might remember me if they don't remember their biggest show... If they don't know the super fan in the crowd, that's okay with me. I got to see them both in my hometown.
I am 45 years old and I clearly remember my father peeing on an electric fence and he got a real shock from it, so I find that a bit strange.
I was just about to write the same. Except that it was years ago on a teenage camp, on a dare, with some friends. My friends said it hurt quite a bit.
there is a simple reason for that in an electric fence you have both a positive and a negative wire so when you get a shock its bechause you are making a short in the circuit but on what they did here the third rail only holds a positive current and the tracks the train goes on holds the negative to complete the circuit so their setup was bound to fail from the beginning bechause they chould have had another piece of rail as their ground point to set it us more realistic to as it is at a real train track :)
I was about 8 years old 65 years ago I peed on a a electric weed burner fence Got a big jolt and really scared me. I think their conclusion is wrong
@mortenhinsverk2406 There's only one wire in an electric fence, just like the third rail. The other end of the fence charger is a metal rod placed in the earth. I've never seen fences that have both positive and negative. It sounds rather dangerous, as any damage can lead to the whole fence being broken or shorted. I'm not saying it doesn't exist, but I've never seen it, and certainly, the peeing adventures mentioned above were a normal fence (single wire).
@@Misteribel I have an electric fence around my chicken coup. It reads about 5,000 volts. How ever the amps is very small and it gives a tolerable shock, which means it goes from wire through my shoes into the ground. Thats all i know.
Man.. No matter their differences, these guys made the perfect match for experiments. Total polar opposites, which makes for a whole now realm of possible ideas, problems and solutions. One mind dissects the box while the other mind, blows the box up with tnt than looks around for missing pieces. 👌👍
I forgot they're goofball vrs stoic act. They're both just huge dorks. I love it.
Thank you for uploading old Mythbusters episodes. Keep uploading 😊
I remember watching the season 1 box set on my portable DVD player on long car rides with my mom as a kid. They were the only DVDs that I had so I watched them on repeat These episodes are burned into my brain, and the Nostalgia i get is amazing.
I haven't watched this episode since it aired back in the day, what a treat to see it in HD. I'm looking forward to be able to easily binge these again!
Back in the day when Buster still was intact! :D
Some people have an anxiety about peeing in public restrooms when there are other people in the restroom. Adam Savage can just pee on command, in front of people, and on camera knowing that the footage is going to be carefully analyzed.
The "Third Rail" is also an issue, as is is no "polished" i.e. heavily oxided not allowing for good Electrical Contact.
Yes. The distance wasn't the problem, it's the contact resistance between the cable and the rail and between the rail and the stream.
What if you dropped the barrel sideways? First impression is that it's not as strong that way
Thankyou for posting the old mythbusters episodes this show was my childhood
Paddy's Sick Note ( Dublinners ) !
Hey Guys, a bit more theory, current doesn't flow through the wire, it travels along the outside of the wire, thus the larger the diameter of the wire the greater surface area and current bearing capability.
It still travels through the wire.. just a lot of it is surface charge. "Surface area" is not the important metric.
this is one of my all time favorite shows every episode was just out right fun to watch
Yeah, and this exactly episode was especially funny. I remember laughing very hard at that bricks disaster recreation. Poor Buster.
'The Barrel' was a monologue by comedian Gerard Hoffnung dating from the '40s and 59s (he died in '59). It was old even when he told the story.
The little red handcart Tory flipped over with a bike. 😂
Engineer Rob, great sense of humor.
My father used to tell this from the time he worked in a steel rolling mill as student. Guy was reported to pee on the power rail for a stupid bet with his workmate and was vaporized.
I can say the brick barrel myth is something that I'm surprised hasn't happened to me !
No mention of "The Bricklayers' Lament" - the Irish tune that tells the same story. Not in myth TV land I guess.
So as to the wee on the third rail. Ask any county raised kid or adult if peeing on the electric fence will cause you a shock. It will indeed IF the streak is solid and doesn’t break into globules. However, whether an electric fence or the third rail, it is unlikely to kill you (unless you fall down and crack your skull) because the current flows up the stream and then, looking for the patch of least resistance to ground can only pick one of your legs to travel down. This the current never crosses the heart. IF you were holding onto something that created an easier path to ground then it MIGHT be possible to put current across the heart but it wouldn’t be likely unless the current came in via one hand/arm, across the chest, and to ground via the other hand/arm. It’s all very basic electrical theory.
Horse fences are so strong as a kid we touched one at camp felt like every vein in my body and my heart exploded
I've erased, repeatedly, debit/credit cards using an old manual CRT degausser when degaussing television set CRT's. As memory serves, the old degausser was something like 500 turns of #18 enameled wire, with line voltage applied to the coil. That type, also strongly recommended against for Sony trinatron CRT's, as it was known to dislodge the shadow mask. Typical application was around waist level, circular motion to ensure uniform disruption of any magnetic field that had been induced in the television's shadow mask (frequently by strong speaker magnets from a stereo or child playing with a strong magnet against the screen). WIth my cards in my front pants pocket, yeah, erased the card every time.
Lmao adam using tape to try and keep a liquid from leaking is hilarious. Dude had no common sense. Jamie was always the smart one.
Originally recorded by Gerard Hoffnung in around 1950. His rendition is hilarious. I remember it well as a young lad in 1950s England. But I didn`t know it was as old as 1919!
Old Aussie farm girl here........ dad used to tell us kids to put coins on the rails before heading off on our motorbike, to check if the train had been through yet.....
I watched this as a kid 😊
Thanks for allowing me to relive memories 😢
regarding the first "myth" we have no idea what condition the barrel was in whenever this incident is purported to have ahppened.
The barrel story was actually an Irish song. Victor Borge also told the song as a story.
For some reason this isn't available in the United States so apparently I'm in Ireland now
I love putting coins on the train tracks, but never stand near them in case they should get pinched and shot out very fast. Have fun, but be safe!!!
Would a stone on the track derail a train would have been a better test? Or a steel bar?
@@jerrymyahzcat larger rocks can damage the wheels and undercarriage, which can lead to derailment; however they'd need to be pretty big to derail a train directly. A steel bar however, yeah that will pretty easily throw a train off the rails. Especially if it gets caught on the ties (sleepers), even a chunk of wood can derail a train like that.
As a Bricklayer I can now show the proof that the first Myth is truly a myth
I was once warned that putting my hotel room key card in my pocket with my cell phoner would wipe out the key info. --Bob Bailey in Maine
Amazing to be able to watch old episodes! Thanks BTW Resist”a”nce is spelled with an “a” Adam!😊
Mythbusters is one of those shows i can watch any episode a thousand times and not get bored. Thank you for this!
The real danger in placing coins on a rail is that they can come shooting out when hit by a high speed train. Safe enough on a yard track, never place one on a mainline.
One thing I'm looking forward to, is that, this is the season with the escape from Alcatraz, and I can barely wait
In Montreal about 15 years ago a young woman had to pee so she snuck into the metro’s tunnel to relieve herself. She did feel a charge and was brought to the hospital. What happened was that the amperage depolarized her heart. She was let go from the hospital and a couple of days afterwards suffered a heart attack from her heart trying to repolarize itself. Don’t pee on subway rails!
That Carpentry Rigging store used to be all of a block away from M5.
Man I miss the old days of TV. TV nowadays just suck
Man, if you think you've had a bad day, that first guy sounds like he had a smashing day 😮
@46:08+/- Jamie gets the daily cast and crew "bet this will never make it into the final edit" award ... the CatAssTrophy.
In the UK the voltage is 660/750 volts DC on the third rail systems. Or overhead systems are 25,000 volts AC, but its the AMPS that kill you. Plus the juice rail is clean, not rusty. But you have not mentioned whether AC or DC yet, so pointless. As a train driver, if you touched the juice rail Direct Current would pull you onto it and i would have two minutes to get the short circuiting bar down to cut the current and prevent oxygen starvation to your brain. As kids we often put pennies on the tracks the result was stretched coins up to three inches long.
Lol seeing how ok Adam was with just dropping drawers and whipping it out with a camera around makes me remember the old footage of an adult film actor that if not Adam was his twin.. His being fine with this has me chin scratching thinking hmm maybe it WAS him after all 😅
Great Show 😀😁
I love this show, but the narrator was wrong. The eel din't leave they're hands empty. They looked full of slime to me. Lol
Peeing on the third rail always seemed like a bad idea, but it's good to know that a normal stream breaks into droplets long before it hits the rail. The stream after six pints and from a distance of three feet seems like a different story. Man that woulda been funny to see them sloshed at work (which I recall from other episodes) and trying to science their urine stream.
The mistake they made in the third rail myth was insufficient bladder pressure. I know that when I REALLY have to go I tend to push, which can create a few seconds of laminar flow, keeping the stream intact all the way down. That is all it would take.
I peed on an electric fence when I was a kid once. It didn't kill me, but it sure hurt like hell!
Its so funny that they went to new york to show off the subway instead of just, driving an hour or two to look at bart
In the Irish song called "The Sick Note", the barrel fell from 14 stories.
Adam being spun in the barrel was weirdly cute
I can confirm, the third rail myth is absolutely plausible. Grew up with horses and learned very early to not piss on the electric fences.
Still to this day. MythBusters is my favorite show
Magnetic bank card strips can be erased by putting them near high current electrical cables with pulsed DC going through them. After 25 years doing maintenance on electric drive forklifts and often having to test them right up max current in a stall condition, I think I was up to something like my 33rd debit card. I'd never remember to take my wallet out of my pocket and it would be inches from a few of of the power cables. The best thing ever was when they came out with the chips on cards. I've never had one of them screw up yet.
equestrian stream 🤣 anatomically dubious stream This is why I loved mythbusters ! So much fun.
My father used to work as a service technician in a loudspeaker factory, and he needed a new creditcard once every 18 - 24 months...
i had trouble with a keycard for a hotelroom witch i got at the hotel reception and not long stored in my phone flipcase with magnetic lockthing on it, i was unable to entry the room so needed a new one at reception. but bankcards seems not to worry about that phonecase at all even after years.
Actually, the placement of the pennies on the rails is key. On certain stretches of rail, pennies can cause problems when the train needs to engage breaks. On a controlled straight stretch, is not much of a problem.
I can't speak for peeing on the "third tail" nut I assure that I know from personal experience that peeing on an electric fence hurts like hell.
Well; Altering the barrel for the desired result is not science, it is theater!
I never had a chance to see these early episodes. The show seems simpler and guys more energetic haha.
Kinda fascinating how different the episodes from the first season were compared to later ones.
Back in the 1970s i heard this on Paul Harvey's radio show. He read it as though he was reading the insurance report.
15:39 I feel lucky 😂
There's more protection from a bicycle helmet than from a standard hard hat --Bob Bailey in Maine
Guess nobody here has seen CKY where Raab pees on the electric fence and shocks the pee outta himself, literally.
It is not a barrel of bricks. It is a wheelbarrow that can easily shed its load when it hits the ground.
Buster first job!
Magnetic field... Heat. Huh. Run the myth charge card through the electric clothes dryer. Run the eelskin wallet and myth charge card through the clothes dryer. Magnetic field AND heat. My $1? Eureka!
THE SICK NOTE by the Dubliners. SONGTEXT Dear Sir, I write this note to you to tell you of me plight And at the time of writing, I am not a pretty sight; Me body is all black and blue, me face a deathly gray And I write this note to say why Paddy′s not at work today. While working on the fourteenth floor some bricks I had to clear; Now, to throw them down from such a height was not a good idea. The foreman wasn't very pleased, he beeing an awkward sod He said I′d have to cart them down the ladders in me hod. Now, clearing all these bricks by hand it was so very slow, So I hoisted up a barrel and secured the rope below. But in me haste to do the job I was to blind to see That a barrelful of building bricks was heavier than me. So when I untied the rope the barrel fell like lead And clinging tightly to the rope I started up instead. Well, I shot up like a rocket till to my dismay I found That halfway up I met the bloody barrel comming down. Well, the barrel broke me shoulder as to the ground it sped, And when I reached the top I banged the pully with my head. Well, I clung on tight through numbed shock from this almighty blow And the barrel spilled out half the bricks fourteen floors below. Now, when these bricks had fallen from the barrel to the floor I then outweighed the barrel and so started down once more; Still clinging tightly to the rope, I sped towards the ground, And I landed on the brocken bricks that were all scattered round. Well, I lay there groaning on the ground, I thougth I'd passed the worst, When the barrel hit the pully-wheel and then the bottom burst. Well, a shower of bricks rained down on me, I hadn't got a hope As I lay there moaning on the ground, I let go of the bloody rope. The barrel than being heavier, it started down once more, And landed right across me, as I lay upon the floor. Well, it broke three ribs and my left arm and I can only say That I hope you′ll understand why Paddy′s not a work today Writer(s): Pat Cooksey
I miss this show great fun
Honestly they should've put weights on the person to see if the counterweight helps by pulling the bucket up a lil giving it more give
The cards used to wipe with the magnet wallets. They don't do that anymore
seeing them excited about breaking buster, oh how innocent they were... 😆
Crazy watching them struggle making that ballistic dummy when there are now companies that exclusively do that.
4:35 Take a real close look as to how the cast iron pipe is being held up.
wow these early episodes are so different
I'll never forget seeing this on tv and _hating_ the australian VO. I'm glad this isn't that version
To this day i still wonder why they got rid of the folklorist lady in later seasons, i thought it added an interesting dynamic to the episodes
I'm a beer drinker and I know you have continuous stream.
I worked at a company who delivered shoes and one of the loaders on a visit to london had a pee on a 3rd rail after a lot of beer, He got a bit shock and 34% burns. Obviously he lived but was not very pretty looking. This was on the london underground with 630v DC.
The barrel of bricks I’ve seen it on a Bugs Bunny cartoon lol
Mmmmmm…. I love eels,especially on rainbow sushi rolls!
