Summary |
Several previously explored myths are being retested in a more extensive fashion in this episode. Can a Ninja really catch a flying bullet with his bare hands? Using a robot with an artificial hand trying to 'slap' the bullet at twice the possible human speed, this myth is tested. Dr David Priest from 3T MRI allows Kari to go through with an MRI while having a radio frequency identification device implanted in her upper arm. Fortunately, she does not lose her arm as predicted by her fellow hosts. A robot is fitted with rubber hands and an airbag is exploded several times. (From the US, in English) (Documentary Series) |
