The MythBusters, Jamie and Adam, two special effects experts with over 30 years experience between them, set out to methodically bust three urban legends in each episode. They will apply modern day science with age-old legends and modern-day myths to prove or disprove what is real and what is truly urban legend. They don't just tell the myths, they'll put them to the test.
In this episode of Mythbusters, Adam and Jamie try a test with a ton of toast, the build team head up a myth that's one big yawn, and the whole gang decamp to Lake Tahoe for the most mismatched motor car race of all time.
In TOAST DROP, Adam and Jamie try out one of the most popular myths around - does toast really fall buttered side down? In this breakfast brain teaser, they each build a rig to simulate toast being dropped from the dining room table. Dressed in a costume drame cameo, the aim is to eliminate human hands from the equation.
IS YAWNING CONTAGIOUS?, Kari, Scottie and Tory set out to prey on an unsuspecting public, and see if yawning - like a cold - really can be caught.
TOY CAR TOP SPEED is a favorite myth of school kids everywhere, Can a toy car beat a real car, in a gravity slope race? To maximize their chances, Adam and Jamie build their own miniature racing prototypes and took the experiment to Ski Boulevard, Lake Tahoe, where they lay out a quarter mile of toy car track - a feat that's easier said than done.
