| Summary |
This episode of MythBusters is an 80's archaeological adventure romp! Adam and Jamie, well mostly Adam, love Indiana Jones. Jamie was along for the scientific ride but Adam wore the costume, made the whip and performed the stunts. First up they tackled the famous opening scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark, Temple Run. When Indy steps on those pressure pads would he really have escaped unscathed by just running for it. Then it's all things whip. First up Adam makes his own 2 belly bullwhip exactly like Dr Jones', then they get to testing. First it's Gun Whipped, can you really disarm a gun- toting adversary with one crack? Second, in Whip Crack the guys fire up the high speed camera to look into the whether the whip really does break the speed of sound. And finally, in Whip Swing, can you really use a whip to swing your way to safety across a deadly chasm? (From the US) (Entertainment Series) PG CC Follow the conversation on twitter: #Mythbusters |
