There is one thing I don't really like: they put most interesting parts of the story and put it in the intro. WHYYYYY?!

@scotishpatriot

The interesting thing is I once saw a bycicle flip. It was a child on a mountain bike. He rode quite fast and used the front wheel brake.

In a real prison break you wouldn't climb down over a window, you'd use the part of the building that gives you a wall to walk down all the way to the bottom. They made this way harder than in it would be in reality.

@endzhere1638

Big flaw in the bike test was Buster is attached to the back of the bike, which stopped any forward momentum from the rider to over the front wheel.

@UcranianoUKR

Hmm I'm still not sold on the bike not flipping, I've flipped my bicycle over a number of times by applying front brakes. I think having a person vs a dummy that doesn't change its center of mass during the front wheel locking is the reason why the bike doesn't flip. Linear momentum can transform into angular momentum and vice versa

@KhoaTran-md5ou

Hair is actually one of the best material for rope, it even used for armor or to replace steel chain in acient asia (granted the old steel is not our modern steel)

@ChefGoreb

I still cant believe the toilet paper held with the perforation. Thats nuts!

@manusb6441

I‘m not afraid of hights but I‘m afraid of falling? Wait, huh? I taught it was about the falling? Like, people that are afraid of hights are afraid of the falling…right?

Grant's inmate number really fits to an engineer/scientist 😁

Yeah but bike can flip though, you just need to be unlucky enough.

@RobinWatson27

When I was a kid, some thoughtless urge passed from my head into my foot, which I then put into the spokes of my front bicycle wheel. Jammed immediately, no damage to my foot or shoe, and me, my paper route saddlebags and the bike went right over the handlebars.

@Lerssinen

One of the best episoded on my opinion.

@codenameblacksmith

They stopped a bike that was beeing pulled and then was running just on inertia when it was hit. Try to block the front wheel with real engine traction on the back wheel and the bike will at least flip for sure.
