Episode 62: Killer Cable Snaps
Jamie and Adam whip it good in "Killer Cable Snaps." The theory under scrutiny? If a cable at high tension snaps, it can slice a person clean in two. Meanwhile, in "Pottery Record," Grant, Tori and Kari have a scream exploring the myth of "archaeo-acoustics" — i.e., ancient pottery can contain sounds from the past that can be played back and listened to today, just like a record.

Episode 63: Air Cylinder Rocket
Put simply, this episode is vintage, explosive MythBusters. Adam and Jamie have unfinished business from their Shark Week special, where they shot and then exploded a scuba tank. But they've always wondered if a ruptured cylinder — carefully aimed — can really cause the massive damage some people claim. Meanwhile, Tori, Grant and Kari go back in time to test some prototypes from the past. They all sound highly dangerous, and they probably are ... After all, they're tinkering with engines fueled by gunpowder!

Episode 64: More Myths Revisited
Returning to the most controversial myths, "Myths Revisited" offers Jamie and Adam the chance to clear their names. Watch as they repeat past experiments to see if their original answer was genuine or bogus. There's laughter, danger and attitude as the MythBusters fight for their rights.

Episode 65: Exploding Lighter
Jamie and Adam have a gas exploring the myth of the "Exploding Lighter." In a nutshell, they want to find out if a small, disposable butane lighter can suddenly ignite with the force of several sticks of dynamite. Meanwhile, in the "Magnificent Three," the gang puts on their boots, chaps and cowboy hats to try and shoot down some popular gunslinger myths.

Episode 66: Concrete Glider
In "Concrete Glider," Adam and Jamie test the old engineering challenge that like a lead balloon, you can't make a concrete glider fly. There's nothing like a challenge to focus the MythBusters' massive minds! Who will fly into history as champ and who will plummet like a stone? Tune in to find out. In the meantime, Kari, Grant and Tori go to amazing lengths to find out just how dangerous it is to stand too close to the edge of a train platform.
