RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

The Boom-Lift Catapult tossed him a respectable 90 feet... if you include the 60 feet of boom. In Raccoon Rocket, 10 lbs. of black powder blasted him 80 feet. And in the myth of the Ming Dynasty Astronaut... well, he just got burnt to a cinder. Come to think of it, Buster could do with a launch break.

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

And while Jamie is hard at work rigging up the rig, Adam is busy fulfilling the "fooling-around" clause in his contract.

[After Jamie tosses Simulaide Suzy into the slingshot yoke.]

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

When it comes to handling children, Jamie's old school.

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

With an array of test-firings planned, Adam paints the projectile to guard against lead poisoning. Because - that's bad.

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

[Adam and Jamie have just test-fired a rocket inside the workshop. The most obvious result is a lot of smoke.]

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

We clearly have ignition... but what the hell's going on in there?

[Inside, there is lots of smoke and several small fires.]

RLRob Lee

[Kari mixes two ingredients to gun cotton, with the ingredients replaced by a donkey bray and a rooster cackle respectively (to conceal just what those ingredients are)].

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

So when you add "donkey" to "rooster", you got a violent reaction.

[Adam is testing the holding strength of wood glue.]

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

It's been a while since Adam hurt himself on the show - but this setup has potential.

[Adam's test rig then separates and hits his fingers.]

RLRob Lee

Yup - business as usual. 60 pounds of force across the knuckles is going to sting a little.

[Jamie is having trouble starting a chainsaw.]

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

What? No elaborate setup? No scale tests? No blueprint plans? This could be the quickest Mythbust on record... if Jamie can start the chainsaw.
