on a serious note.....this will pretty much suck for myth-busters because everything will change for them. all the awesomeness will be veto'd by the upper brass to prevent anything like this happening again thus the experiments will probably be pretty lame. not to mention they wont have the same support from the local law enforcement since it took place on their range.

just glad nobody got hurt. and according to the website this particular experiment will not be aired on the episode.

I enjoy the show but that Adam dude makes me want to stomp kittens. Hopefully he gets blamed for the incident and goes to jail.

I dont think so, usually stuff like this while they plan teh experiment, the local "experts" are the ones doing the aiming and loading...... Usually that is

The bomb depot they use is about 1000 meters from the home that got hit. I think they can still do whatever they plan, just in a remote area where there is no one around. Like East Oakland.

It used to be interesting, but now they just blow stuff up. If I wanted to watch two guys I hated try to get into the pants of a cute girl I have a crush on, I'd hang out with my mom and her boyfriends.

am I just drunk again or did you just say, via analogy, that you have a crush on your mom?

We were just talking about this yesterday too! Too bad for the Mythbusters...we do enjoy their show.
