Adam, Jamie, and the build team revisit a couple of old myths. Sound like fun.

"Superb"

You know I really like revisit episodes. It shows that the Mythbusters care about our opinions and are not afraid to be wrong. I liked the Sniper Scope myth, I knew that was possible, but when I saw the first episode, i began to think of second thoughts, but this revisit episode made me cheer at my television set. I was like "Yeah Boy! They did!" I was so happy and cheery. The hammer myth was pretty cool to. "thats like an easy bake oven from hell" Grant said, it was a very funny episode, like the others. The trambone one was awesome! I like the fact that the Mythbusters re-did that one. I was like "YES!" very great episode if you ask me. I love it and can't wait to see the fans feedback ep. Very lovely and full of cool and "I told you" soing.moreless

Finger in the gun so there have been many stories out there about gun barrels getting lodged with something like a bullet that never was discharged and parts of the gun barrel exploding. If it was a small gun the shooter's hand was damaged, and a long gun, not always. Seems that the mythbusters could have done some more research on this.

Exploding trombone how crazy is this myth. Who would ever put explosives in something that is sitting on their shoulder?!? After all the testing the myth was wrong, but so was Adam so it was worth it

Sniper scope Adam doesn't like having a sniper angry at him so they decide to retest this myth using an actual period gun, period scope and period bullet to retest this myth. They get a plausible result using all the right stuff and some armor piercing bullets.

Exploding hammer So once again the age of the piece was once again brought into question. The fans wanted this myth retesting with pre WWII hammers and a real anvil to prove that striking hammer with a hammer will cause one head to explode.moreless
