sorry MythBusters… but you’ve lost my heart to Top Gear who actually managed to properly test the myth that the thrust of a jet engine could blow a car so hard that it flies.
As the wikipedia site for the MythBusters states: “This was the first myth in which the MythBusters were neither able to confirm nor bust the results due to logistics reasons.” It took them a whole episode to work out that it was perhaps plausible. Those who have seen the episode will remember how disappointing the episode was.
The Top Gear guys do it right in less than five minutes. You can see the episode legally at the BBC website (click “Stunts” then “747 vs cars”).
I feel more content with life now ;)
eheheh Top Gear kicks butt :D
