Heard about this. I used to watch every episode when the show was first around, until it sorta jumped the shark with the more and more "entertainment" myths as opposed to the science ones. I would definitely watch this show though!

Shit dawg! hope this isn't going to ruin them....those guys are fucking legit. I got their autographs and errythang when I was in San Fran 2 years ago.....

And I think this is the first time something has gone horribly wrong if I'm correct?

Discovery won't let them get cancelled. They are one of the most popular/well known shows on discovery.

What a ton of coincidences that no one got hurt.

The guy in the minivan got out minutes before.

Soared through the room of a sleeping couple - what if one of them were sitting upright.

Bounced across 4 lanes of traffic - didn't hit a single car.

First 2 season were dope, then it started to go downhill a little. By like the 4th season it was unwatchable and I used to be a huge fan

crazy that a cannonball can smash through a concrete wall, bounce off a hill into a neighborhood, rip through a door, another wall, bounce off a house, and land in a van.

thats what i'm saying, if anything they will be fined and told to be more careful...but really they were at a bomb range so idk how much more careful you can get? maybe dont shoot cannon balls in the direction of civilization

Jamie lives 3 blocks from my old high school. He came into some of our classes last year to talk about creative careers. It was pretty awesome.

If I was sleeping with a girl and she sat up and had her head blown off by a cannon ball shot from the genius of Mythbusters.. I would feel honored.

the science that they usually simplified to the point of being a joke. Some of the episodes were fun to watch, but for the most part I wasnt a huge fan. This is hilarious though, they were clearly lacking some applied science based on how this worked out, its pretty clear that the cannon ball could go WAY farther than they thought.
