Summary |
Shrouded in secrecy and mythology, not to mention cult popularity, ninjas are perfect fodder for the MythBusters. The whole team joins forces to pit science against martial arts mystique. Can ninjas run on water as movies like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon would have us believe? In 'Walking on Water', Adam, Jamie and a ninjitsu master try their luck at aquatic agility. Then boys get confrontational as they compete to see how ninjas - masters of illusion - could create the impression of water-running using boards. In 'Samurai Swing', Kari, Tory and Grant find out if a ninja could stop a samurai sword with his bare hands. (From the US, in English) (Documentary Series) |
