[mrfish1991]

Anyone excited as i am for the new season?

the previews looked pretty good for this season...and im as excited as ever!

[CJH]

Love that show. I'll have to DVR it. Gotta love the fall when the new seasons start!!!

[mrfish1991]

I thought it was a pretty good episode last night, the bullet drop was deffenatly cool...but i had doubts about the knocking your socks off right from the start.

[DTro]

I enjoyed the bullet drop too.

[jwhjr]

I've never really gotten into this show. I'll have to give it another look though.

[Ralph Wiggum]

The bullet drop was awesome. Adam and Jamie are amazing.

[DTro]

I must be a geek, because MB is my favorite show.

[CJH]

I like Adam and Jamie, am luke warm on the rest of the cast. Its kind of hit or miss to me, some stuff I really like and some is a tad boring. I guess that just coincides with your personal interests!!!

You must be,

How did the bullet drop turn out, I started watching it but than the boss took the remote.

It was sweet. They found a 480' long indoor building and rigged it so the dropped bullet and the fired bullet hit the ground in the same spot. They caught it on high-speed camera, and they hit the ground essentially at the exact same time.

I'm a big fan of Kari

For what it's worth, a .45 handgun load will hit the ground (if fired level) from about 4ft high in 360'

I thought they fired it from 36" high...I could have been distracted, though.

[DTro]

Oh I just guessed on the height, I'm sure you are right.

[Jeremy airjer W]

Do new shocks and struts really decrease your braking distance.

I said essentially the same time...

the duct tape they used in tonights episode is partially made in minnesota. The silver outer layer of the duct tape is made in Lakeville. Its actully a really interesting process.

[CJH]

Loved the duct tape episode!!!!! Can't believe they lifted a car, made a canon, and made a boat that floats.
