i'm definitely a fan, but it seems you win the mythbusters love competition MD.

also, from this old mythbusters DBB thread it seems we in Australia are 9 episodes (9 weeks) behind you in USA.
yesterday (that was Monday for me) was the "Episode 35: Border Slingshot" one. Pretty impressive episode, i was so rooting for em.

i think my favourite episode so far has been Episode 24: Ming Dynasty Astronaut. Seeing Buster spinning around and flying off sideways on that rocket-chair had me ROFLing. And forced them to rebuild him (they kept the head though, yay).

They coulda used more. I still see pieces of the truck that resemble something remotely man made.

Damn good episode though.

What myth are they busting? The non-explosiveness of high explosives?

They were busting the myth that a stick of dynamite will clear the dried cement out of a cement mixer. Afterwards, (myth was not fully busted, iirc) they figured wtf, let's make a bigger boom.

well at least they are doing something useful. you'd think they would run out of myths to bust...

Hah!

Last night they busted the old cartoon gag that sticking a finger in a gun barrel would stop the bullet from leaving the barrel.

They must be running out of urban myths.

They made a ballistics gel model of Tori's hand.

Spoilers for those outside of the US
[spoiler]What's interesting is that the second trial got the barrel to balloon out slightly near the end. Even welding a steel spike into the end of the barrel didn't make it banana peel out. The spike was actually launched! The only thing that made the shotgun balloon out even more was ramming the muzzle a good six inches or so into some mud![/spoiler]
