I have that quote in my Facebook. witch i don't use. The Facebook i mean. I mean, Facebook...

Dammit, is Adam responsible for the republican party, flat earthers, and woo healers?

They rlly used that quote soooo much throughout the show’s life xD

... That was stolen from the movie The Dungeonmaster.

One of Adams best quotes from the Show! XD Together with "Am i missing an eyebrow?"

Boing 😂

​@@mrawood1The conpany name is Boeing. And you're an ignorant POS.

Guess what, so did every airplane maker at one point or another. Stop being a dumbass.

I'm here just for the Boeing comments.

Hahaha real life myrhbusters experiment. Ironically mythbusters have a much better safety record than those sketchy greedy pricks

I knew this comment would be here. Bravo mate!

Its always Boeing with the doors. The 747 cargo door coming unlatched and flying off in the 80's (Flight UA811) Or the door plugs on the 737 Max (AA1282)

Similar problems plagued the DC-10 and even some DC-9s/MD-80s, and more than just once.

@@erich930 I knew about the Boeing ones I mentioned but hadn’t heard about the DC door issues and would like to know more so Do you happen to know any of the flight numbers?

@@koiyujo1543sounds like one last myth for them to bust!

Ah you mean that causes a venturi effect.

The latter part of your statement is incorrect. The difference in pressure from inside to outside is the same in this experiment. The whole point of pumping air into the aircraft in this episode was to make sure the difference matches that at altitude. A lot of people misunderstand pressure, which leads to part of the reason why people believe all those movies which show explosive decompression. If the difference between the inside and outside is 8~10 PSI, then that difference is functionally the same whether the plane is at altitude or at sea level. The air pressure in the plane in this experiment was probably pumped up to about 22 PSI for that purpose, while in an actual flight the average PSI in the plane would normally be about 10~12 PSI. Sea level pressure outside the plane is about 14. Another misunderstood idea about pressure, and perhaps why you may think that there is a difference in result (altitude vs sea level) if the actual pressure is different regardless of the difference, is the idea that higher pressure simply exerts a greater force overall. This is untrue, both with regards how it interacts with pressure on the other side of a vessel, and on the surface of the vessel itself. PSI Stands for Pounds per Square Inch, because that's the force being exerted in a specific area. That doesn't change if there is a hole in the vessel that is large or small. But if the hole is larger, then that's more 'square inches', so the force being exerted through that hole added up is greater. This is why a small pinhole doesn't cause explosive decompression, the pressure is the same and so the force exerted on the hole is very small. While in the experiment in the show, we can see a larger hole causes something quite close to what we expect from explosive decompression. The force exerted only changes with one other major factor...how much pressure is being exerted on the hole from the other side. That's where the difference in pressure comes in. As long as this is the same difference at sea level or at altitude, your result is going to be the same. As for the rest of your statement about the suction, the other commenter is right in that there is something called the Venturi effect where effectively, a jetstream or other flow can cause an area of lower pressure, which causes suction. While it does happen, it doesn't occur at the level that will cause explosive decompression. The effect is greatest when the flow is pushed through a very small cross-sectional area, which means it has the greatest impact on a pinhole. Additionally, the effect is strongest along the line of action of the flow, but in this case a hole on the side of the aircraft is perpendicular to the jetstream. While they didn't demonstrate this in the show, physics tells us this effect is far too small in the case of a jet airliner to impact a pinhole, let along a larger hole. I can't comment on a situation where the structure of the aircraft is damaged to the extent that it causes drag and opens the hole wider....that's very specific. But I would also remind you that at altitude, air is quite thin and may not result in the kind of shockingly powerful drag force you're thinking about.

I agree. As a ASE master cert tech and now shop owner, I've seen some wild stuff done to peoples cars. Especially country folks cars. Additionally, if an aftermaket subwoofer/speaker system was installed, those generally use 6-00 gauge wire, which is larger than most most OEM wire found in most vehicles. If installed incorrectly and if it had a short to it, that could definitely set off the bullet tested in this episode. Circling back to wild stuff done to peoples cars, I had an older country gentleman stop in because, just like the myth, his headlights wouldn't work. He said he had a "buddy" work on it to try to get it to work. The "buddy" had installed 8 gauge solid copper insulated wire (like you'd find used on an outlet in your house) from the neg battery terminal, to the power input on the headlight, then from the headlight to a light switch you'd find in your house that he'd screwed into the dashboard, then from the light switch back to the pos battery terminal. Despite the debauchery, I'm sure the switch would have worked for a bit - if the bulb wasn't burnt out 🤦‍♂️😂 I once had a customer make their own battery out of a tupperware container and several smaller batteries. Their battery was dead and they still had a warranty on it from when my shop installed it 2.5 years ago. They made the battery, so they could drive to my shop, instead of paying for a tow. 😂 Of course they could of called me and I would of just delivered a new battery to them, but I still appreciate the ingenuity lol These are just anecdotes, but my point being is that I've seen wild stuff happen and crazy modifications done to peoples cars. I'd say its entirely plausible a redneck who was willing to use a .22 as a fuse would have done some other wild stuff to his truck, which could cause a short hot enough to set off the bullet. Additionally, had it been a different type of .22, I bet it could of easily hurt him. .22LR or a .22Hornet would definitely mess someone up.

A very hot short and a round in bad condition

Ya, that one always bugged me. Also, my brother bought an FJ40 years after that episode aired and it had a fuse panel that would point a bullet right at you.

Did they even do "plausible" at this point in the show?

If that cable couldn't do it, a chain won't either.

@@DepressedSkorpion Maybe not, I was just pointing out the slight inaccuracy...

I mean the scale is 1':1'

They compensated for being at much much much lower altitude

You aren't an engineer and also weren't paying attention to the video. They clearly mention how they compensated for not being 30,000 feet in the air.

@@frizzykid100 There is no way to compensate for such a pressure differential of 30k feet. The air is so thin and they have to use so much pressure in the plane that the plane literally expands. So when the force is release because the aire is so thin it comes out far more violent than it would at sea level. You have 4.3 psi at 30k feet pressing back against the plane. At sea level you have 14.7 psi pushing back against the plane. The deceleration of the pressure loss is far greater (3.5X) than at an altitude of 30k feet. For every action the is reaction. In the video they said 8 psi.... A plane at altitude has to be pressurized to 10.9 psi. So you are telling me that 8psi releasing against 14.7 psi is the same as 10.9 psi releasing against 4.3 psi???????????????? The differential on the ground will always be greater. The differential in the air will always be less. More force is exerted and more catastrophic stress is applied to the plane at altitude. Simple Elementary physics my dude.

@@milkman3723 The airplane is at ground level, so the base cabin pressure is already at 14PSI. The compressor is only adding 8PSI, to bring it to 22PSI total (ground level atmospheric pressure + 8PSI). If the cabin pressure was 8PSI, they would have to had to pull a vacum first. It isn't explained very well in the episode, but they are adding 8PSI to the cabin, over top of the 14PSI of existing ground level pressure. The pressure gauge is zeroed out to atmospheric pressure, anything that shows up on it is on top of basic atmospheric pressure: hence the 14PSI + 8PSI = 22PSI. 22PSI > 14PSI, thus equating to an 8PSI difference between outside and inside, matching the difference at 35 000ft. Simple, Elementary Physics my dude.

@@matthiashall at 35,000 feet the difference is 10.9 psi. So the experiment is bunk anyways because they only used 8 psi. Sooooooo....... Now what? LMAO

Aren't they essentially the same thing? There's just a difference in air pressure on each side.

That makes me feel better lol. I’ve been on planes with loose window frames and got nervous. But I’m sure if it was actually a problem, they’d fix it. Once had a flight delayed for six hours due to technical maintenance. Annoying, but I’m glad they took the time to fix whatever was wrong.

"I reject your reality and substitute my own". How did you manage to blunder two words in an 8 word sentence?

Pretty sure it's a standard "air raid" sound clip.

The fast pitch up is typical for small hand crank sirens. Those sirens produce true square waves which are not natural occuring, that‘s why those sirens sound so bone chilling. Your neighbours will love you. Oh and always wear ear protection, real square waves can cause permanent hearing loss at lower SPL than „smoother“ sound waves like speakers or gun shots. Edit: Oops the siren like background noise is most likely the air compressor, look up huffer cart videos. Could be some resonance making it more noisy.

Medieval tree cannon they did

I recall some episodes were they cart buster on an ambulance stretch

I think based on actual accidents and incidents that have happened in real life, no, not really. The only big effect might be some extra damage and a very windy and noisy cabin, but that's about it.

Uhm, what is the problem with that? That's the formula for calculating the area of a circle... so? Edit: oh, I didn't even notice the 2 before the pi. Never mind...😅

@@derGameplayDJ It looks like some unholy mixture of the area of a circle (pi r^2) and its circumference (2 pi r), yet still not enough to be the surface area of a sphere (4 pi r^2). But I guess it could be interpreted as the inner/outer surface of a hemisphere, which would make sense

That's more of Bernoulli's 1st principle in action and less explosive decompression.

Right?! We all really need to start saying the correct thing

The ISS windows are multi-layered

the car Mythbusters used had a completely different type of rear end suspension the car in the movie had leaf springs suspension I don't believe that it was a valid test at all

I'm pretty sure that the white cable that you're seeing is the rear antenna

That's called an "ear block". You can also have a sinus block. They are extremely painful. I rode a skydiving plane up and down (wasn't jumping that time) with one and by the time I got to the ground, I was in a lot of pain.

Your comment shows how ignorant you are. Explosive decompression has happened to all types of aircraft. Also, you can't even stell the company's name right, even though you try to slander their name.

The difference in pressure between inside and outside was the same as it would be at altitude. There is no difference in behavior.

You do know that this is an old TV show from almost two decades ago, yes?

That won't do much, as seen in real incidents that happened to airplanes.

that was my only real "gripe" with that myth in this episode, i feel like the speed the airliner is at would end up ripping it to shreds.

"boing"

​@KarmasBite I don't think it would with just a simple bullet. The windows, the plane, everything already has holes, it isn't perfectly sealed. I don't think adding a bullet hole, even one where you could see the "banana peel" kind of look from the outside. And it wouldn't cause that much damage where it'll rip the plane apart In short. A small hole, or even a big hole, won't pull everyone and everything through it(recent example is the boeing door plug)

The boundary layer of air around an airplane isn't all that fast. The Bernoullie Effect does apply to a degree. But the simple air pressure difference is the biggest controbuter to explosive decompression. At cruise altitude, it's 1t/m². The airplane doors are pressed into the door frame with 5t of pressure.

@@CerberusTenshi huh, i didnt know that. pretty interesting, thanks man

That's precisely why they pressurized the plane.
