Mythbusters

PRIMETIME EMMYS® 1X nominee in 2016

Each episode, the MythBusters, Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman, two special effects experts whith over 30 years experience between them, methodically set out to bust three urban legends. And they don't just explain if something's true or false: through trial and error, they demonstrate it. Sometimes they crash things; sometimes they blow things up--all in the name of science.
