Episode 35: Border Slingshot
Is it feasible to fly over the frontier? In this episode, Adam and Jamie take on the myth that illegal immigrants are firing themselves 200 yards across the border and into the United States with a slingshot so accurate, it can land the human projectiles safely on a carefully placed mattress. Border patrols are reportedly baffled — can the MythBusters' handbuilt human-sized slingshot solve the puzzle?

Episode 36: Killer Tissue Box
A must-see for anyone with the foresight to keep tissues on the rear shelf of their car — in a crash, will that box be propelled forward with enough force to crush your skull? The MythBusters are on the case, with surprising results. Then, the build team — and their arrow-shooting robot — take on Robin Hood ... or at least the legend that Mr. Hood once fired an arrow into an opponent's, splitting it completely in two.

Episode 37: Escape Slide Parachute
Join the MythBusters as they test three tall tales of high flying and free falling. The first pits them against Hollywood logic with Buster doing his best Indiana Jones impression, the second tests the explosive properties and decapitation potential of hair cream, and the third addresses surviving a fall from 33,000 feet without a parachute. So, basically, it's business as usual at the "Mythbusters Flying Circus"!

Adam and Jamie take their detractors head on as they revisit some of their favorite myths. They're going to answer them once and for all and forever silence their critics!

Episode 39: Chinese Invasion Alarm
The MythBusters take a pot shot at an ancient Chinese text that alludes to a subterranean sonar system that could apparently detect and intercept an invasion from below. And watch Adam and Jamie test out a myth that millions of hungry Americans invoke every day — if it's been on the floor for less than five seconds, is it really safe to eat?
