	MythBusters Results: Season 1

	The 'MythBusters' Take on the Mentos/Diet Coke Craze - Zap2it
		Sure, it's fun to do and cool to see, but there has to be some science behind it.
		Enter Discovery Channel's "MythBusters," two guys in San Francisco -- Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman -- who put urban myths, commonly held beliefs and tall tales to the test.
		According to Hyneman (he's the mustachioed MythBuster), it's a process called "nucleation," in which the particular chemistry of the Mentos candy interacts with the chemistry of the carbonated Diet Coke, causing the carbon dioxide gas, or CO2, to suddenly come out of suspension in the liquid and make a break for freedom.

		MythBusters Adam Savage (left) and Jamie Hyneman MythBusters is an American science television program on Discovery Channel starring Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman, two special-effects experts who set out to test the validity of timeless myths and urban legends of popular culture.
		The fundamental flaw in the MythBusters' test was that the point where the drag becomes powerful enough to inhibit a car's performance with windows down was inside their 45-55mph margin at 50mph.
		While the MythBusters were able to construct and launch an albeit hybrid rocket in under two days using only properties available to Civil War-era engineers, the rocket was not two stage, as per the myth and did not travel 120 miles.

		There was also more footage shot for the cereal box myth that had to be cut due to the unintentionally gruesome result when they tried have mice survive on the box alone.
		I was very lucky and fortunate to spend time on the set with the MythBusters as they filmed part of an episode.
		However, it is very difficult to fire perfectly straight into the air and they even found an international expert in falling bullets who was able to confirm for them that people have died from bullets fired up into the air.

	MythBusters become MythMakers
		The email campaign urged the MythBusters to bust the myth that the legend had been debunked.
		The many emails may have demonstrated to the MythBuster producers that IF there was an episode wherein the MythBusters busted the "myth" of "Bigfoot", lots of people would tune in.
		So it now appears that even though the MythBusters are not going to look into the subject at all, they still want the ratings boost they would receive if they were going to look into it.

	MythBusters busted?
		Essentially statistics is the method of the scientific method, so for a show to claim to present science, it is a requirement to present sound statistics in my opinion.
		Second, because MythBusters is a television show, it is not necessary, nor does it make for entertaining television, to show the gory details (of anything) in the actual episode.
		The MythBusters looked at the percents, 10/34 ~ 29% and 4/16 = 25%, and concluded that there is evidence to reject the hypothesis, probably because they considered the percentages to be different enough.
