Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Mythbusters really was the best TV has ever had to offer in its heyday.

Any of them still have street cred left?

The comments on that video are something else lmao, Kari doused her reputation in that "deep water energy" and burned it

The elephants and mice episode is also my favorite non-explosion myth. I can't believe it's actually true.

a bull moves very gingerly

I imagined a bull in a red wig with purse in hand holding up plates and wondering where he'd store those in the kitchen if he bought a set

Been rewatching mythbusters and man its a great show. Entertaining, educational and great hosts. RIP Grant. 😭

Watched the one about hot water tanks either being a bomb/or being a rocket last night. Was a super good one.

Didn't they stop because they ran out of myths that wouldn't give people explicitly dangerous information like their bomb recipe

I'd like Scrapheap Challenge/Junkyard Wars or Monster Garage back. I liked the "just get it running" attitude over the muscle car and motorcycle shows.

This kind of is the opposite and explains how that bill nye show didn't last, it was a killjoy show, that wasn't open to changing its mind and hated the idea of learning anything new

There was a recent corridor crew video that had Mythbusters energy about seeing if Arnie using mud to hide from the Predator's thermo vision was realistic. It had a similar surprise outcome. Worth checking out!
