Fun and entertaining for the most part. Much of the subject matter can be found elsewhere. Good to see someone trying to reach out to the more dense in society that still cling to silly notions.   (1 people found this comment helpful, 0 did not)

Give a couple of special effects wizards(Jamie and Adam) a few strange urban legends and let them try to prove or disprove it. Then they will go to almost any length to make the false ones true. From pierced tongues attracting lightning to building cannons from logs overnight, this is an entertaining and informative show.   (4 people found this comment helpful, 1 did not)

They go on to scientifically (and humorously, most of the time) test out the strangest urban legends. Did you know that dropping a penny from the Empire State Building actually will NOT kill a person if it hit one? They proved it! Putting metal things in microwaves, laying chickens in tanning beds, flying in lawn chairs with weather balloons attached, seeing if you can vacuum a fat person's butt to an airplane toilet, they've got answers to all the things you wondered about (and some you didn't even know about) and more on one show.   (3 people found this comment helpful, 0 did not)
