Episode 5: Hammer Bridge Drop, Buried Alive, Cola
Can Jamie and Adam cheat death? We'll find out. First, they test the theory that a person could survive a leap from a bridge by throwing a hammer in the water first. According to urban legend, the hammer should break the plane of the water's surface, thereby softening the landing. They'll also investigate whether it's possible to survive being buried alive. How long would it take before all oxygen is cut off inside the coffin causing suffocation? On the lighter side, the guys will take a look at the many myths about cola. Can it remove bloodstains, clean rust or cook a steak? They'll get back to you on that.

Episode 6: Lightning Strikes Tongue Piercing, Tree Cannon, Beat the Breath Test
In this episode, Jamie and Adam test the limits of a homemade tree cannon. Their interest comes from the story of a small town in Hungary where the inhabitants supposedly built a working cannon out of a tree. Or maybe Jamie and Adam just want to blow things up ... according to the story, the contraption accidentally exploded with deadly results. Then they get jiggy with a Breathalyzer, testing the theory that very drunk people are lucid enough to fool technology. Oh, and can Adam's tongue piercing withstand the electric force of a lightning bolt? We'll see.

Episode 7: Stinky Car, Raccoon Rocket
Is the myth of the stinky car true? Jamie and Adam put their noses on the line to find out if that nasty smell in your car is there to stay. Then they follow the gasoline trail to flush out the truth of the "raccoon in the drain" myth. Will our mythbusters become human cannonballs?

Episode 8: Escape From Alcatraz, Duck Quack, Stud Finder
In this episode, Jamie and Adam retrace the steps of the infamous prisoners who escaped from Alcatraz without a trace in 1962. Although all were presumed drowned, our mythbusters are determined to find out if it's possible to survive the tides of the San Francisco Bay in a homemade raft. On a less precarious, but still hilarious note, they'll attempt to answer the age-old question: Does a duck's quack echo? And then there's the simply unhinged notion that a stud finder can prove whether or not human beings have been guinea pigs in mind control experiments. Yes, really.

Episode 9: Chicken Gun, Octopus Egg Pregnancy, Killer Washing Machine
Will launching a chicken at an airplane disrupt its flight? Or will the bird be blown out of the way by the jet engines? Jamie and Adam want to know. And they're pretty sure you want to watch them find out. Then they'll journey inside the human body, where they'll take on a whopper. A woman claims she swallowed an octopus egg — and then gave birth to an eight-legged offspring. Finally, this question needs answering, quickly: Can your washing machine kill you?
