Episode 10: Explosive Decompression, Frog Giggin', Rear Axle
Jamie and Adam get trigger-happy trying to shoot down myths regarding firearms. First, they fire a bullet into the shell of an aircraft to find out if a single shot can cause explosive decompression — and total aircraft destruction. Speaking of heavy artillery, they'll test the story of two hunters who claim to have used a loaded .22 caliber gun cartridge as a replacement fuse in a car's ignition. Will the experiment backfire? Finally, they take on a movie myth when they try to rip a car off its rear axle. What could possibly go wrong?

Episode 11: Sinking Titanic, Goldfish Memory, Trombone Explosion
In this episode, Jamie and Adam explore a "titanic" legend: Will a sinking ship suck you down as it goes under? Things keep flowing as they try to find an answer to the eternal question: Are goldfish bored or just plain stupid? Our mythbusters will determine once and for all whether the fish can remember anything for longer than three seconds. On a more explosive note: Will throwing a lit firecracker down the neck of a trombone make your music sweeter? Uh—huh.

Episode: 12: Break Step Bridge, Toothbrush Surprise, Rowing Water Skier
Will the athletes of Stanford University's varsity rowing team be strong enough to pull Jamie up on water skis behind a fragile eight—person shell? Sounds like an excuse for a dip, no? Jamie and Adam move on to a myth with more legs when they take a stroll across a bridge to see if the rhythm of soldiers marching together can cause a bridge to collapse. Finally, watch where you put your toothbrush — the guys will attempt to learn if the bacteria from a toilet will settle in their toothbrushes. How did the toothbrushes get in the toilet again?

Episode 13: Buried in Concrete, Daddy—Longlegs, Jet Taxi
Jamie and Adam make a brave attempt to solve a legendary mafia mystery by searching for the decomposed body of Jimmy Hoffa, allegedly buried in the concrete under Giants Stadium. Will they meet the same fate as Geraldo Rivera at the tomb of Al Capone? The mythbusters then fire up a jet engine and find out if the power and force of a 737 could launch a taxicab 75 feet in the air. Finally, will Adam's arachnophobia prevent him from finding out if the daddy—longlegs is the most venomous spider? Brave indeed.
