She's crazy nerd hot no matter what.

Overall I think they do a very good job and do everything in good faith. There are a couple of wierd ways they did thigns here and there, but otoh, they can't be experts in everything and they do have limitations in terms of budgets and timelines. Best show ever

The tornado show aired again last night. Where they try to make a portable tornado shelter. Their debris test was to shoot it with a wood cylinder the size of a 12oz can of cola out of Jamie's 12oz can cannon(I need one of those!) at it. When in other shows they've tested tornado shelters by shooting a whole 8' 2x4" at it. They claimed to only modify the shelter in one area when you can see other modifications they forgot to mention.

One funny episode was when they had Grant(Mythbuster's biggest wussy!) trying to drive on ice.

Sure it's for entertainment but the nerds should know that other nerds watching need more important variables addressed.

Oh yeah, she used to be on a show called Extreme 4X4 or something like that. Shes is a cutie, but something about a woman doing manly things is a turnoff for me. Call me weird if you will.....

They are usually very good about covering most varialbles that they can control. One thing about experiments and analysis, you incorporate as many variables as you can, and make assumptions about the ones you cant control.

I remember one that I had a real issue with - the driving at night with out your lights on. They concluded that it would be too dark and dangerous to attempt to drive at night (they used a completely dark indoor go-cart track for it). Coming from eastern Montana, we used to do it all the time. At times, it was so bright at night, that you could pick out animals 200 yards out in the fields.

I used to pass people on rural highways by moonlight with my headlights off. A full moon on a clear country night, no problem. It really freaks the other driver out!
