Episode 72: Underwater Car
If you're unfortunate enough to drive your vehicle into the drink, is it possible to escape or will a watery grave be your fate? Heading poolside, the guys get their feet wet by doing some intensive underwater training. Then the pressure is on as they seat themselves inside a submerged car and do their darndest to get out. Meanwhile Grant, Tory and Kari roll out the Seven Paper Fold myth. Is it possible to fold a piece of paper in half more than seven times? Taking this myth to the outer limits, our crew sets up at a location that has plenty of space — NASA. Here, in the biggest build they have ever attempted, their mission is to put together a piece of paper that's the size of a football field.

Episode 73: Speed Cameras
Take two self-confessed speed freaks — yeah, that would be Adam and Jamie — and pit them against the people's nemesis: speed cameras. The result: an action-packed adventure full of fun, fascination and, best of all, fast cars. Can speed cameras be beat by speeding faster than they can click? How about using license plate protectors or changing lanes to avoid the camera's eagle eye? Adam and Jamie put the pedal to the metal to crack these myths. Meanwhile in "Exploding Nitro Patches," Kari, Grant and Tory explore the myth that when the paramedic shouts "Clear!" and the defibrillator vents, its volts may start more than a heart.

Episode 74: Dog Myths
Well, it's about time, right? That is, it's time to tackle a classic: Is it possible to teach an old dog new tricks? In attempt to find an answer Adam and Jamie go head-to-head with a pair of untrained, middle-aged Alaskan Malamutes. With the help of expert dog trainers, they'll have one week to teach their canine companions five new tricks. Next, Kari, Grant and Tory look into the myth "Beat the Guard Dog." You know the story — the cat burglar wants to sneak past the guard dog. He whips out a juicy steak and while the dog is chowing down, our sneaky thief makes off with the loot. Of course, that's not the only method of getting past a vigilant pooch and our intrepid trio try them all. Finally, to top off our canine special, in "Foil the Bloodhound," the gang tests the old Hollywood tale: A fugitive is on the run and the police with their faithful comrade, the bloodhound, are on his trail. So what does our prey do to shake them off? Simple. Double back, run zigzags or take a detour along the creek for a while. Adam and Jamie put it all to the test to find out if you can really lose these four-legged nose machines that easily.

Episode 76: Voice Flame Extinguisher
It's another hypnotic MythBusters episode, full of sound and fury, and guaranteed to have you spellbound. Grant, Tory and Kari go deeper ... deeper ... deeper into the world of hypnosis, while Adam and Jamie appear to be under some sort of influence as they make extraordinary noise in the name of science. In "Voice Flame Extinguisher," Jamie and Adam set out to discover if it's possible to put out a fire using only your voice. According to the myth, concentrated sound waves can prevent air from getting to the flames and, starved of oxygen, the fire dies. One thing's for sure, the boys' voices aren't gonna set the world on fire!
