Mythbusters: Collection 4
Studio: Image Entertainment
Have you ever wondered if the stunts you’ve seen ninjas do in movies like walking on water, stopping a swinging sword with a forearm block or catching a fired arrow by hand, are really possible? Mythbusters’ Jamie Hyneman and Adam Savage set out to prove or disprove the feasibility of urban legends, using elaborate tests and real science. The results are fascinating. Many urban legends are tackled here, from entities giving people super powers to a lasting controversy about the NASA moon landing. It’s fascinating to watch the guys go about demystifying these “myths,” and as for catching that arrow? A hand has to move 5 times quicker than a human hand for that to happen. – forrest green III
