5/4/2007 - mythbusters

I like my job, but I'd leave in a heartbeat if I were chosen as an intern for the Mythbusters. I know there is a lot of work behind the scenes, but what is onscreen looks like so much fun. What I also like about the show is that they generally follow the scientific method in their pursuit to bust popular myths.

One of the great appeals of the show is that they love to blow stuff up. From toilets to airplanes, they've blown up everything. Their most spectacular explosion, I believe, is when they blew up a cement truck to test the myth that you can clean the dry cement within the truck by using dynamite. The build-up to this explosion is great and I just love the sound of the explosion and Jamie's reaction to it.
