Table cloth trick done with a motorcycle...MythBusters
« on: October 27, 2010, 12:02:37 PM »


So tonight it seems, the MythBusters (on Discovery channel) will either confirm or bust the old table cloth trick done with a motorcycle.  ;)   Check your local listings for time & channel kiddies.

You've got to watch your back in the SSDB, this is where the clever guys get bored with bike talk and make poo jokes.
I like my women a little big. Natural. Now, they shave this and wax that. It's not right. I love natural women. Big women. This trend in women has to go. Bulomia, anorexia. That's just wrong. You know what will cure that? My special sticky buns. One lick of my sticky buns and your appetite will come right back. ~ RIP Mr. Borgnine  01/24/1917 - 07/08/2012  :'(

Nine times out of ten, that show is full of half-baked methods and laughable "science." 



...But damn is it entertaining!

I couldn't agree more! ;) I'm actually not a big fan of the show, but after seeing the ad for tonight's show, I thought I'd post the info seeing as how that video has been posted around here a few times. ;D

I've been watching every episode for years.  Sure, I'm betting that has something to do with Kari Byron, but still... 

(What?  Attractive, red-headed, a geek...hell, if she wasn't a vegetarian, I might have needed to tell Mrs. Crip that we're taking a bit of a break so that I can go stalk her in LA...)

Take-off on a conveyor?  Yeah, that and the cutting glass with a suction cup on still make me want to punch a baby.
