1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,000
Please, don't try anything that you're about to see us do at home. Ever!

2
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:38,000
The Mythbusters are cracking on to separate Hollywood heist fact from fiction.

3
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:39,000
Try and steal that.

4
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:45,000
And it all culminates in one of the most daring stunts in Mythbusters history.

5
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,000
If we do something wrong, he could die.

6
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,000
Who are the Mythbusters?

7
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:52,000
Adam Savage

8
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:56,000
and Jamie Heineman.

9
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,000
Aren't Tracer rounds illegal?

10
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:03,000
Between them over 30 years special effects experience.

11
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,000
That's what I'm talking about!

12
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,000
Joining them, Tori Belichi.

13
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,000
Science is fun.

14
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:10,000
Carrie Byron.

15
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:11,000
Guess what I did today?

16
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,000
And Grant Imahara.

17
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:14,000
You guys ready for this?

18
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:19,000
They don't just tell the Myths, they put them to the test.

19
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:24,000
The Mythbusters

20
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:27,000
So what do we got?

21
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:29,000
Well, that's just the thing.

22
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,000
We didn't get an outline this time.

23
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,000
We just got an envelope of two tapes in it.

24
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:37,000
One labeled your mission and one labeled the plan.

25
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,000
Yeah, well, stop jabbering and put one in.

26
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:41,000
Jabbering.

27
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,000
It's kind of cool.

28
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,000
Good morning, Mythbusters.

29
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,000
Your mission, should you choose to accept it,

30
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,000
is to investigate the great Hollywood heists.

31
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:56,000
You must find out whether the breaking and entering stunts

32
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:00,000
seen in the movies from tiptoeing around lasers

33
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,000
to climbing air ducts with magnets are really possible.

34
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:09,000
Now we finally get to see if all those Cat Burglar movies we've seen are actually true.

35
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:10,000
It's cool.

36
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:11,000
It is very cool.

37
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,000
This tape will self destruct in five seconds.

38
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,000
Wait, let's see what it does.

39
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,000
That is great.

40
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,000
That is awesome.

41
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:24,000
We've all seen the movies.

42
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:28,000
Our action hero embarks on an impossible mission

43
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:33,000
as he cruises his way past all sorts of high tech gadgetry

44
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,000
to secure his bountiful booty.

45
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:38,000
So what's next?

46
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,000
Well, we got this second tape called the plan.

47
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,000
Let's see what it says.

48
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,000
The plan is to take the mission to the base of the city

49
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,000
and then to the base of the city.

50
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,000
The mission will be mission controller in charge of building an assault course

51
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,000
armed with the latest Hollywood security devices.

52
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:03,000
Then our heist heroes, a.k.a. Adam, Jamie, Tori and Carrie

53
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,000
must work their way through the maze

54
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,000
to see if these Hollywood heists are all they're cracked up to be.

55
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:10,000
I love this, Myth.

56
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:11,000
I'm curious.

57
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:12,000
Yeah.

58
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,000
And Grant, will you, Carrie and Tori,

59
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:17,000
build us a security assault course or something like that?

60
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:18,000
Absolutely.

61
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,000
Are there any plans?

62
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,000
I think the tape might have something to say.

63
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:23,000
Let's see.

64
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,000
I've provided Grant with that classic movie scene.

65
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:29,000
A wire diagram that precisely details the course.

66
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:31,000
Well, sounds great.

67
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:32,000
We'll get started right away.

68
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:33,000
Excellent.

69
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:35,000
And here it is.

70
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:39,000
For this heist who done it, Adam and Jamie will start by scaling

71
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,000
the entire structure of the building.

72
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:44,000
And then they'll have to cut through a glass door

73
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,000
to access the jewelry room.

74
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,000
Inside, there's first a gold bust of buster

75
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,000
that's sitting on a pressure switch.

76
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,000
And then there's a big old safety crack.

77
00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:00,000
And the job of securing this ultimate jungle gym

78
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,000
falls down to Tori, Grant and Carrie.

79
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,000
Now remember the safety word is run.

80
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,000
It may look like they're constructing a rather dumb office

81
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,000
in a rather large warehouse.

82
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:17,000
But believe it or not, this is going to be heist headquarters.

83
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,000
Thanks to Tori's diving and ducting,

84
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,000
the air vent is coming together like a breeze.

85
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:24,000
Okay, clip.

86
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:29,000
But this metal monstrosity is just one part of the mythical maze.

87
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:32,000
It also comes complete with laser beams

88
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,000
pressure pads.

89
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:35,000
Perfect.

90
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,000
In penetrable glass.

91
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:45,000
And head guard Grant's even built himself a special security cage.

92
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,000
This is the mission control area.

93
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,000
It's supposed to be the most secure area around

94
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,000
and this is where we're going to monitor the team's progress

95
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,000
through the maze.

96
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,000
I can monitor up to four cameras at one time

97
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,000
and then I can monitor the entire structure.

98
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:02,000
Four cameras at once.

99
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,000
They're placed throughout the area.

100
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,000
This is a power supply for the bell

101
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:10,000
and the klaxon.

102
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,000
And with the maze sounding off nicely,

103
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:19,000
the key ingredient gets locked into place.

104
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:22,000
It's this safe that'll hold the grand prize

105
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:26,000
and it'll be down to Adam and Janie to crack it.

106
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:31,000
Do you know the combination of that safe?

107
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:35,000
Well, Tori decides whether to be safe or sorry,

108
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,000
the first challenge beckons.

109
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,000
It's a movie classic, but not a classic movie.

110
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,000
In fire trap, Dean Cain ventures into a vent

111
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,000
armed with two magnets.

112
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:53,000
With superman like strength, he silently hauls himself up.

113
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:58,000
While security remains blissfully unaware of the imminent robbery.

114
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:02,000
To walk the plank on this myth, Adam and Janie are going

115
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,000
head to head with two different climbing systems

116
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,000
and Janie has already bagged the magnets.

117
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,000
Since I was about, I'd say in my late teens,

118
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,000
I've had a fascination with magnets

119
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:18,000
and I had a friend that worked at a company that manufactured them.

120
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,000
Not just normal magnets, but high-powered magnets.

121
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:26,000
And so with these magnetic monsters, it's a case of love at first sight.

122
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,000
These are not your normal magnet.

123
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:31,000
It'll pull somewhere between 500 and 1,000 pounds.

124
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,000
So if you've got two of these together,

125
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,000
that's like dropping 1,000 pound of weight on your hand.

126
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,000
Yeah, if I put another one right here, you would lose your hand.

127
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,000
You know, they have a license to handle these things.

128
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:46,000
Hands down, these magnets are dangerously powerful.

129
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:50,000
But are they powerful enough to let Janie climb the walls?

130
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:54,000
Well, to find out, he's milling an aluminum bracket

131
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,000
to hold the magnets in place.

132
00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:01,000
But getting the magnets in is causing Janie to come unstuck.

133
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,000
I want you to hold this because I don't want it to jump at me.

134
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,000
You're putting that magnet near here.

135
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,000
Okay, ready?

136
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,000
Are you sure that I should be putting my hand here?

137
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,000
I'm not going to go over on that.

138
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:14,000
Okay.

139
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,000
But just be ready.

140
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:20,000
We're good.

141
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:21,000
Okay.

142
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:25,000
You know that I'm the only one here who appreciates how dangerous that actually is?

143
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:26,000
Uh-huh.

144
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,000
I'm going way now.

145
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:32,000
With the magnets holed up and a handle attached to the bracket,

146
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,000
everything is ready for a test.

147
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,000
It's so far so good.

148
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:44,000
On this thick metal plate, the magnets work magnificently.

149
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,000
That actually is proof of concept right there.

150
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,000
That is, in fact, holding my weight.

151
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:52,000
So it is?

152
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:56,000
And yet, I can just go like that.

153
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:01,000
So it's a go on the steel slab.

154
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:06,000
But when Janie tries it on some thin, air-duck-like metal, there's a problem.

155
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:13,000
The issue here is quite simply that this steel is not strong enough to do it.

156
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,000
I mean, it's too thin and there's not enough energy.

157
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:23,000
So effectively, I hate to say it, but as far as climbing a duct, this ain't going to do it.

158
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:27,000
Because this metal right here is about the same as what we would have in a duct.

159
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,000
The thin steel has a low saturation point,

160
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:34,000
meaning there's a limit to the magnetic attraction it can generate,

161
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,000
even with these super magnets.

162
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,000
Just keep it away from me.

163
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,000
So good.

164
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:45,000
So to get this plan off the ground, Janie's ducking back to the drawing board.

165
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:50,000
Meanwhile, Adam's had a heart-stopping delivery.

166
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,000
Clear!

167
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,000
Beeeeeeep!

168
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,000
The plan is to scale a wall with these suction cups.

169
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:02,000
Now this may be the realm of cartoons, but I think it's possible.

170
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,000
I'm going to have these all going back to a manifold and a vacuum pump

171
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,000
that I will wear on my body in a backpack.

172
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:13,000
And I should be able to flip, flip, flip, flip, flip, flip, flip, flip, flip, flip.

173
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,000
Up a wall with these.

174
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:23,000
Instead of magnets, Adam's hoping these vacuum suction sucker cups will let him stick to the wall.

175
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:27,000
But will they be strong enough for him to get it up?

176
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,000
Oh, that's not so bad. That's not so bad.

177
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,000
Ow, I put my head.

178
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:35,000
I think this is going to work.

179
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:38,000
But I can't possibly sit there with my thumbs.

180
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,000
Oh, I did.

181
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:44,000
Because generating the vacuum is making Adam's thumb numb,

182
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:48,000
he's going to power up an electric vacuum pump.

183
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,000
It's nice and quiet.

184
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:54,000
That should let him scale walls like a giant gecko.

185
00:09:56,000 --> 00:10:00,000
But that was more like a giant turkey.

186
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:04,000
That was better than you could have hoped for, wasn't it?

187
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:08,000
Later on MythBusters, more breaking and entering.

188
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,000
We're in.

189
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:13,000
But next, it's duck climb calamity.

190
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,000
I think Jamie's is going to be like...

191
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:29,000
The MythBusters have an implausible mission.

192
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,000
They're putting Hollywood heists to the test,

193
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,000
using the latest security systems from the silver screen.

194
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:39,000
Adam and Jamie are going to separate fact from fiction.

195
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:43,000
And first up is the air duct climb.

196
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:47,000
Jamie's got stuck with the design based on magnets,

197
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,000
and Adam's vacuum pump effort sucked.

198
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,000
Literally.

199
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,000
This controls my right hand and my right foot.

200
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,000
This controls my left hand and my left foot.

201
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:03,000
As long as I... these are not momentary push buttons.

202
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:06,000
I push one and that valve is active. That'll stick.

203
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,000
I release it, it lets go.

204
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,000
And with Adam dressed like he belongs in The Matrix,

205
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:15,000
he's made a stealth suit to be proud of.

206
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,000
Yeah, baby!

207
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,000
Suction cups on hands and feet, vacuum pump in backpack,

208
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,000
and more wires than a New York switchboard

209
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,000
means this heist hero is humming.

210
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,000
But will it work?

211
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,000
Oh!

212
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,000
Initially it looks like suction man is about as effective

213
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,000
as Jamie's magnet man.

214
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,000
Ah, I see. This is a tough one. Hold on.

215
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:48,000
But slowly and surely, Adam gets the hang of it.

216
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,000
The trick is you can't let anyone be pulling a vacuum

217
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,000
unless they're all attached.

218
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,000
Vacuum's just not strong enough.

219
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,000
Pull it that quickly.

220
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,000
Leg released.

221
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,000
Leg released.

222
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,000
Hair, hair.

223
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,000
Dude! It's pretty good!

224
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,000
I'm pretty psyched.

225
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,000
With Adam firing on all cylinders,

226
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:18,000
Jamie, in light of the air vent visit,

227
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,000
has also changed his design.

228
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:23,000
He's built much larger hand brackets

229
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,000
that'll hold five magnets each.

230
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,000
This is comical. These things are so powerful.

231
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:30,000
And with some high friction tape on top,

232
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,000
it's problem solved.

233
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:39,000
Finally, the addition of two-foot stirrups

234
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,000
means it's giddy up Jamie.

235
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:44,000
As far as I can tell, based on my tests,

236
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:47,000
my rig should get me up and down this vent quite fine.

237
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:51,000
It's very simple. It's brutal. But it works.

238
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,000
Jamie's stealth suit is not quite as technical

239
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,000
as Adam's, but it may yet win this competition.

240
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:01,000
Remember, this is what they're trying to do.

241
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:05,000
Silently scale an air duct like a cinematic cat burglar.

242
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:08,000
But will Adam and Jamie be like this guy?

243
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,000
Or more like this?

244
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,000
Inspired by the movies,

245
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:15,000
this wannabe robber slid his way into an air vent

246
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:19,000
but got stuck. Reluctantly, he had to call for help.

247
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,000
And when the fire brigade cut him free,

248
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,000
he was promptly arrested.

249
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,000
Okay, guys, this is your first challenge.

250
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:30,000
Your goal here is to enter the duct

251
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,000
and climb up and over to get into the utility room

252
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:38,000
as quietly and stealthily as you possibly can.

253
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,000
And then we'll see who has the more valid approach.

254
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:45,000
In this highway robbery, Jamie's up first.

255
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:48,000
But Adam's already predicting his downfall.

256
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,000
I think Jamie's is going to be like...

257
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:56,000
And I believe in a security manual,

258
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,000
the proper response to that sound coming from your duct

259
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,000
is to just riddle your duct with bullets.

260
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,000
With Carrie and Grant heading up security,

261
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,000
bullet riddling is unlikely.

262
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:08,000
But with Tori, you never know.

263
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,000
Remember, the aim is to make a silent entry

264
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,000
into the secret facility.

265
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:17,000
Jamie, are you ready?

266
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:18,000
Yeah, I'm ready.

267
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,000
Start the timer, Grant.

268
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:24,000
Starting in three, two, one, go!

269
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:25,000
Go, Jamie!

270
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:32,000
Why, Tor, the god of thunder is trying to enter my building.

271
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:38,000
Somebody needs to check that air conditioner.

272
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:43,000
Here's some key phrases from the surreptitious entry heist manual.

273
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,000
Be the breeze,

274
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,000
as light as a feather,

275
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,000
the footfall of a kid.

276
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,000
I guess I could get into a building too

277
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:02,000
by beating on the ducting with a sledgehammer.

278
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,000
Jamie, how you doing?

279
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,000
I'm okay!

280
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:14,000
Jamie, do you think this is a practical way to get up a duct?

281
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,000
No!

282
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,000
It's been a brutal entry.

283
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:25,000
Perhaps the noisiest attempted burglary in human history.

284
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:26,000
Surreptitious?

285
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,000
I don't think so.

286
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:33,000
Adam's up next, and I think the suction cup idea is

287
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:36,000
if it doesn't malfunction somehow,

288
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,000
it's probably going to do very well.

289
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:41,000
If he mis-triggers or something happens to the control,

290
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,000
he's going down.

291
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:46,000
This is like my dream come true.

292
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,000
I'm so happy right now.

293
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,000
Adam's purring like the cat burglar that got the cream,

294
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:54,000
and he's soon up and running.

295
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:57,000
But although he's more muted than Magnet Man,

296
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:01,000
he's hardly covert, especially when he falls.

297
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,000
You okay?

298
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:06,000
I'm fine.

299
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:08,000
How's your rig?

300
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:09,000
Hold on.

301
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,000
I've just having so much fun I wanted to prolong it.

302
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:18,000
Like his mom taught him, Adam gets right back on the horse

303
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,000
and inches his way up.

304
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,000
But once again, it's far from convincing.

305
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:28,000
In a real situation, how does the movie myth hold up?

306
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:31,000
The movie myth is totally busted.

307
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:35,000
The idea that you would trust your life to a single point of failure,

308
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:38,000
like something like this, even with some redundant systems,

309
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:40,000
this is a rough way to go.

310
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:43,000
Better to walk in the front door just as a guard.

311
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,000
Despite his reservations,

312
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:50,000
our duck devil has almost sucked his way to the finish line.

313
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:53,000
All he has to do now is break through the grate,

314
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:56,000
and he's in the utility closet.

315
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:58,000
Oh, yeah!

316
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,000
Got ya!

317
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,000
Quick, they're surrounding the building!

318
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,000
Oh, that's crazy!

319
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:06,000
We got you!

320
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:09,000
Still to come. Scale this.

321
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,000
Adam's super suckers get the ultimate task.

322
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:14,000
Oh, yeah!

323
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,000
But next...

324
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:18,000
Ooh, that's a good one.

325
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,000
Adam's super suckers get the ultimate task.

326
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,000
Oh, yeah!

327
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,000
But next...

328
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:29,000
It's Green For Go with the Laser Beam Alarm.

329
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,000
Unlike in the heist movies,

330
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:44,000
climbing an air duct is not all it's cracked up to be.

331
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:48,000
With enough noise to wake the police chief in the neighboring state,

332
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:52,000
Adam and Jamie's surreptitious entry failed miserably.

333
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,000
The myth of gaining entry to a building through the duct system

334
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,000
through some kind of suction or magnet...

335
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,000
totally busted.

336
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,000
But so much fun.

337
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:05,000
Given that this myth is about covert activity,

338
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:08,000
as far as I'm concerned, the myth is busted.

339
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,000
None of the techniques that we've tried today

340
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,000
are remotely what you could call covert.

341
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:20,000
So the air duct climb is busted,

342
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:23,000
which means it's on to the next impossible mission.

343
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:25,000
The myth of the laser guarded room.

344
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:28,000
But already this myth is looking shaky.

345
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:34,000
We've done quite a bit of research to find one of these visible laser systems

346
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,000
like you see in the movies,

347
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:41,000
but in that process, we may have busted the myth outright.

348
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,000
Seems that we couldn't come up with any laser systems

349
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:48,000
for alarms that incorporated this visible red laser.

350
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,000
We've seen the movies.

351
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:56,000
Our martial arts anarchist flips his way through the bright visible lasers,

352
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:59,000
knowing that one broken beam will set off the alarm.

353
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:03,000
But according to Grant, these glow-in-the-dark lasers

354
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:06,000
simply don't exist outside Hollywood.

355
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:12,000
So our mission controller has had to fashion a working alarm system

356
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:16,000
using laser pointers, but he's added a planned bead.

357
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:21,000
The thing that they have in real life are these.

358
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:25,000
And these incorporate infrared beams.

359
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,000
And they are beams just like the laser,

360
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,000
but these are invisible to the human eye,

361
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,000
which makes them much more difficult to overcome.

362
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:36,000
So the rooms got the fake lasers, and then the real deal.

363
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,000
The invisible beam alarm.

364
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:41,000
But they both work on the same principle.

365
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:45,000
How this works is there's a transmitter and a receiver.

366
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:48,000
And if you break the beam, you set off the alarm.

367
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:52,000
And the job of beating Grant's beams falls to Tori and Carrie.

368
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:56,000
The first technique to get past the laser beams is probably my favorite,

369
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:59,000
because it's the most absurd, but I think it's going to work.

370
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:04,000
It's the Catherine Zeta-Jones blow the powder into the laser beam

371
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:07,000
so we can see where they are technique.

372
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,000
Well, it sure worked for Catherine Zeta-Jones.

373
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:17,000
In the main entrapment, she blows cosmetic powder onto the lasers,

374
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,000
and suddenly they're lit up like Christmas.

375
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:23,000
But his makeup made up.

376
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,000
Powder test?

377
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:29,000
Definitely helps.

378
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,000
Blow by blow, the lasers do start appearing.

379
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:33,000
Yeah.

380
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:34,000
Oh, look at that.

381
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,000
Oh, that's great.

382
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:40,000
But then Carrie gets carried away.

383
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:48,000
All right, let's get out of here before the cops come.

384
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:57,000
She blew so much powder that the fine particles were enough to break the beam.

385
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,000
They reset and try again.

386
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,000
And although Carrie squeezes around some lasers,

387
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:07,000
the powder is making this myth turn to dust.

388
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:12,000
Once I had the powder in the air and I tried to get through the beams,

389
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:15,000
I still had a problem because the minute the powder settled,

390
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:18,000
all of a sudden I'm stuck in a weird position with no lasers to see,

391
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,000
and I have to go for the powder again.

392
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:25,000
So powder is busted, but Tari wants to try something else

393
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,000
that was also featured in entrapment.

394
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,000
I'm just so excited, man.

395
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:30,000
I know, I know.

396
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,000
I just want to, me too.

397
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:37,000
As well as the powder, Catherine Zeta-Jones was helped by her sidekick,

398
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:42,000
who could see all the lasers clearly thanks to a night vision camera.

399
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:47,000
But can equipment like this really make lasers glow in the dark?

400
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,000
Well, Tari's got some military-style night vision goggles

401
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:55,000
that should be perfect to put this myth to the test.

402
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:56,000
Okay, cool.

403
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:57,000
Okay, you good?

404
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:58,000
Yep.

405
00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:59,000
Thanks, man.

406
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,000
What do you think?

407
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:03,000
Let's see if this works.

408
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:07,000
The goggles work by infinitely intensifying the amount of light,

409
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,000
even in a dark room like this.

410
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,000
What does it look like?

411
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:13,000
What, what, what do you think?

412
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:17,000
It looks like bright sunlight in here.

413
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:20,000
It's like every hole, every window,

414
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,000
it looks like it's a bright sunny day outside.

415
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:23,000
This is sick.

416
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:26,000
Thanks to the goggles, the rooms a glow,

417
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,000
but there is a drawback.

418
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,000
I cannot see the beams, though.

419
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:33,000
What I can see are the points where the beams are hitting.

420
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,000
But you can't see any of the beams,

421
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,000
so that doesn't really help you much.

422
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:38,000
No, it sure doesn't.

423
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,000
Night vision goggles to help you see the laser beams, totally busted.

424
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,000
It actually makes it harder to get through the lasers.

425
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,000
So what I have next is a device that,

426
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:54,000
what I'm going to do is stick a laser into the receiver,

427
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:59,000
and hopefully I'll be able to break the beam of the existing laser system

428
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,000
and not set off the alarm.

429
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,000
It's another trick from Entrapment.

430
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:08,000
By shining her own lasers into the building's laser beam receptors,

431
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:13,000
Catherine Zeta-Jones bypasses the laser alarm altogether.

432
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:18,000
The real difficulty with this laser substitution technique

433
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:22,000
is getting his beam on the correct axis to intercept the photoreceptor.

434
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,000
If he doesn't get it exactly in there,

435
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,000
it's not going to make a perfect match,

436
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:28,000
and the alarm's going to go off.

437
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:32,000
It's a delicate operation which fails miserably.

438
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:39,000
Just lining up the new beam is enough for Tori to trigger the alarm.

439
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:41,000
Alright, let's try that again.

440
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:45,000
So for take two, he tries coming in on an angle.

441
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,000
And what do you know?

442
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,000
I think you're doing pretty good.

443
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,000
That looks like it's pretty centered.

444
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:55,000
Cool.

445
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,000
Now I can rob the place.

446
00:23:58,000 --> 00:23:59,000
Yeah, that's awesome.

447
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:02,000
They've beaten the visible lasers,

448
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:05,000
but been sprung by the infrared.

449
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:08,000
This is why you don't see laser systems anymore,

450
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:09,000
because they're easy to defeat.

451
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:12,000
You see the laser, you can either get around them,

452
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:15,000
or introduce your own laser and disarm the system.

453
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:18,000
Later, Adam becomes a fly on the wall.

454
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,000
I don't have a lot of time to hang like this.

455
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:21,000
But next up...

456
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:23,000
Try and steal that.

457
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,000
The jewelry room gets cracked.

458
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:32,000
Remember, don't try this at home.

459
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:35,000
We've got years of experience that keeps us safe.

460
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:42,000
The Mythbusters are tackling some crime cliff hangers,

461
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:45,000
as they put Hollywood heists to the test.

462
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:49,000
With the air duct climb and visible lasers done and dusted,

463
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:52,000
it's time to up the ante.

464
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:56,000
Well, Carrie and Tori made it all the way through the mythical laser system.

465
00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:59,000
But then, they set off the real-world equivalent of that,

466
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:02,000
which is an infrared photo beam detector.

467
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:05,000
That one's going to be a lot harder for them to defeat.

468
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:07,000
Alright, time to test the infrared.

469
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:09,000
I've got the powder.

470
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:12,000
The reason this latest challenge is more challenging

471
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:17,000
is because these infrared beams are invisible to the naked eye.

472
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:18,000
Nope.

473
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:21,000
This time, Carrie's makeup doesn't light them up.

474
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:23,000
I don't actually make that noise.

475
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:26,000
And neither does Tori's night vision goggles.

476
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:31,000
A combination of the two does let Tori catch a momentary glimpse of the beam.

477
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:34,000
It's almost as if somebody was at a flashlight

478
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:36,000
and you were blowing dust in front of a flashlight.

479
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,000
That's exactly what it looks like.

480
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,000
But then the powder puts a nail in Bismuth's coffin.

481
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:45,000
Okay, guys, you're within sight of your final goal.

482
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:48,000
But before you get there, this is your second to last challenge.

483
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,000
And this is the final challenge.

484
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:53,000
Before you get there, this is your second to last challenge.

485
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:55,000
And this is the classic one with the glass.

486
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:58,000
Cutting a hole in the glass,

487
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:02,000
stick something on, and then you pop it out.

488
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,000
That seems pretty straightforward to me.

489
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:07,000
But you have to do it without setting off another sensor.

490
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:08,000
What kind of sensor do you have?

491
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:12,000
This sensor is going to be inside listening for glass breaking.

492
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:19,000
So it's just looking for a sharp sound that would correspond to smashing something.

493
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,000
Alright, let's get some glass cutters and go.

494
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,000
It sounds simple, but as Jamie's finding out,

495
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,000
it's not all it's cracked up to be.

496
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:30,000
Oh, shoot.

497
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:32,000
So...

498
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:36,000
The mythbusters have an hour to find the best glass cutting solution

499
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:38,000
before returning to the maze.

500
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:42,000
They first tried the classic suction cups technique.

501
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,000
I don't think this is going to do anything.

502
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:47,000
But they just can't suck the glass out of the hole.

503
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:49,000
So they move on to thermal shock.

504
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:55,000
Extreme hot, then cold, should fracture the glass along its circular groove.

505
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,000
But it fails catastrophically.

506
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:06,000
Next, Adam tries tapping a smaller hole, which does work,

507
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:11,000
but is so noisy it will easily trigger Grant's sonar alarm.

508
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:15,000
So it is possible to make a hole in a glass without breaking the whole thing.

509
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:18,000
The question is, is it possible to do it silently?

510
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,000
Well, given that the tapping was too loud,

511
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:24,000
their final effort using a drill is a rather odd idea.

512
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:31,000
Even for a glass-is-half-full person, it's not going well.

513
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:34,000
And then, to make matters worse, it's time up on the practice,

514
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,000
and they've got to hit the maze.

515
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:41,000
Security cameras are running, and system is armed.

516
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:46,000
Adam starts by going full circle and trying again with the suction cups.

517
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,000
I don't hear any crack me at all.

518
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:50,000
But gets nowhere.

519
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:51,000
That's not working.

520
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:57,000
So then they gamble with the glass tapping, the only method that worked earlier.

521
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:58,000
That!

522
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,000
But they get busted.

523
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:04,000
The sonar alarm means the cops are on their way.

524
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,000
I think it's time for plan B.

525
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:07,000
Okay.

526
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:13,000
With the alarm reset, plan B involves first drilling a tiny hole.

527
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,000
But that's as far as the plan ever gets.

528
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:21,000
Well, it didn't set off the glass.

529
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:23,000
That's tempered glass, man!

530
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:26,000
It hasn't set off the alarm yet.

531
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:30,000
It's still making lots of crinkly noises, though.

532
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:36,000
If any of that glass falls on the inside, the alarm is going to go off.

533
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:41,000
This may look disastrous, but actually it's an incredible stroke of luck.

534
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:44,000
The glass has shattered, but not set off the alarm.

535
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:47,000
Just a little bit, let me do it.

536
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,000
I'm just doing a little bit at a time.

537
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:55,000
And because the glass is tempered and laminated, all Jamie has to do is pick it out piece by piece.

538
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:58,000
You are doing pretty darn well.

539
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:03,000
Until he can get his arm through and open the door from the inside.

540
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,000
Come on!

541
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,000
Oh! Oh!

542
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,000
That's it. You're in.

543
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:17,000
You can pull out.

544
00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:23,000
We did it!

545
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:26,000
We're in!

546
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:28,000
They've cracked it.

547
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:32,000
Admittedly, it's not quite like they'd planned for, but they're in.

548
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:39,000
The myth that you could gently cut a nice little hole in a window and pop it out with a suction cup,

549
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:44,000
like you see in the movies, like cat burglars do, it's totally busted.

550
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:48,000
On the other side of the break, the safe is in safe hands.

551
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:52,000
Give me a stick of dynamite. We'll open that safe right away.

552
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:58,000
Back at Heist headquarters, Adam and Jamie have just busted their way into the jewelry room,

553
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,000
albeit with a slice of luck.

554
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,000
We did it!

555
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,000
So now the booty awaits.

556
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:11,000
So this is the golden idol of Buster, and it's the final goal for Tori and Kerry.

557
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:13,000
I'm going to rig it with Pruett.

558
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:17,000
I'm going to get the gold and silver, and I'm going to get the silver.

559
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,000
I'm going to get the silver.

560
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:23,000
And that's Buster, and it's the final goal for Tori and Kerry.

561
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:27,000
I'm going to rig it with pressure sensors.

562
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:29,000
It's a Hollywood favorite.

563
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:34,000
After beating the lasers, our cat suited cat burglar is faced with a pressure switch.

564
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:38,000
Preparing precious which neutralization device.

565
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:39,000
But that's easy.

566
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:46,000
Some gum and a knife locks it in place, and she's away.

567
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:48,000
try and steal that.

568
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:52,000
Well, it's down to Tori and Carrie to find out.

569
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:57,000
Remember, Carrie has to slide the knife in while maintaining the pressure on the switch.

570
00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:00,000
I will slide under and then you hold it down while I chew the gum.

571
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:01,000
Okay.

572
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:04,000
Will this razor-sharp technology really cut it?

573
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:08,000
In a word, no.

574
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:12,000
Even squeezing the knife in is enough to set off the alarm.

575
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,000
Okay, we're armed.

576
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:18,000
So they try again, but dish up the same result.

577
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,000
Maybe we should just leave.

578
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:21,000
We should run.

579
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,000
Forget the idle.

580
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:25,000
Okay, trying one last time.

581
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:26,000
Okay, I want to give you some pressure.

582
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:29,000
But third time, Lucky and she's in.

583
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,000
So now for the gum.

584
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:37,000
There's nothing more attractive than the sound of gum being chewed.

585
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,000
Yeah, there is.

586
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,000
Watch me and chew the gum.

587
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:45,000
Okay.

588
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:49,000
Will the gum be gummy enough to hold the pressure switch in place?

589
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:53,000
When I move the knife, we lose pressure on the button.

590
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:56,000
What we need to do is slide the knife.

591
00:31:57,000 --> 00:32:00,000
I don't think the gun's going to be enough pressure.

592
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,000
Terrible. It doesn't work at all.

593
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,000
When you're chewing the gum, it's soft.

594
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:13,000
There's just not enough stick to hold it down into place.

595
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:16,000
Lucky then that these larsenists came prepared.

596
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:19,000
If we were in a heist, we would bring tape.

597
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:20,000
Let's try tape.

598
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:21,000
Okay.

599
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:24,000
Will the tape stick it out any better?

600
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:31,000
Okay, ready?

601
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:32,000
Yeah.

602
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:33,000
Yes!

603
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:34,000
Yeah!

604
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,000
All right!

605
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:37,000
Let's go.

606
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:39,000
Well, we got the idle.

607
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:42,000
The last thing that's left to do is cracking the safe.

608
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,000
And that's Jamie and Adam.

609
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:45,000
Yep.

610
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:48,000
They've downed the air duct, dismissed the lasers,

611
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,000
shattered the myth of the glass cutting,

612
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:53,000
and busted Buster's pressure switch.

613
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:56,000
So all that remains is the safe cracking.

614
00:32:56,000 --> 00:33:01,000
And to start, Adam's going to use that old movie favorite, the stethoscope.

615
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:04,000
But he may not be the best person for the job.

616
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:06,000
And what?

617
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:10,000
After all, when the team tested the myth of the subterranean listening post,

618
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:12,000
Carrie came good.

619
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,000
But Adam, as a sentry, was fired.

620
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:16,000
20.

621
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,000
I was watching your finger.

622
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:20,000
Yeah, nothing.

623
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:22,000
I didn't hear anything on that one.

624
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:23,000
I was watching her finger.

625
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:24,000
I did.

626
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:25,000
You did?

627
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:26,000
He did.

628
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:29,000
Luckily, he's rigged his stethoscope with a special amplifier,

629
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:34,000
which means that even deaf as a post savage should hear what's going on.

630
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:39,000
It's hard to do with all that pounding.

631
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:45,000
He's trying to find out at what combination the lock wheels click into place.

632
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:52,000
Adam keeps listening, but after almost 20 minutes, hasn't heard a pin drop,

633
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,000
let alone a tumbler.

634
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,000
I could spend another couple of hours doing this,

635
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,000
but were you making any headway with it?

636
00:33:58,000 --> 00:33:59,000
There's headway to be made.

637
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:03,000
It's just, you know, it's going to take me two more hours.

638
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:06,000
And even then, I'm not sure that I'll succeed.

639
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:10,000
Official time, 19 minutes, 48 seconds.

640
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:13,000
So the listening has fallen on deaf ears,

641
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:17,000
but it's always safe to assume there's a plan B.

642
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:21,000
And as with most plan Bs, it's much more destructive.

643
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:24,000
Funnily enough, they make these things hard to pry off.

644
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:31,000
Adam's new plan is much more about breaking and entering.

645
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:35,000
Adam gave up on just trying to crack it by sound,

646
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:40,000
and now he's got a drill, and it looks like he's drilling a hole

647
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:44,000
to put the boroscope through so he can see the tumblers.

648
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:46,000
It may not look like much,

649
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:51,000
but he's hoping to use this image to help him pick the tumblers into the correct alignment.

650
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:54,000
Piano wire. Have you got any?

651
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,000
I see that right there.

652
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:59,000
Getting tuned into this safe is slowly coming together,

653
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:03,000
but Adam's already been outed for 45 minutes.

654
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:05,000
All right, I'm so close.

655
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:11,000
I'm just trying to move something, the tiniest bit out of the way, and then I'm in.

656
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:13,000
If this was real life,

657
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:17,000
even the most dozy security guard would have busted our burglars.

658
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:20,000
Got it.

659
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:23,000
Yay!

660
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:25,000
Yay!

661
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:27,000
You got it!

662
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:30,000
Did it!

663
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:33,000
There you go.

664
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:35,000
Hey, you made it!

665
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:36,000
I did.

666
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:37,000
Fantastic.

667
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:40,000
Although I still think my method's a little slow.

668
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:41,000
Yeah.

669
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:47,000
Well, our information says that the safes are rated in number of minutes to take to crack

670
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:50,000
for a professional safe cracker.

671
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,000
Guess how long that safe was?

672
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:54,000
40 minutes.

673
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:55,000
Five.

674
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:56,000
Five.

675
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:57,000
Five minutes for a professional safe cracker.

676
00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:59,000
That's a five-minute safe, yeah.

677
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:04,000
Of course, professional safe crackers don't always need to be as quiet as Adam had to be.

678
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:07,000
So for a first attempt, he did pretty darn well.

679
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:12,000
Final thoughts on our impossible heist.

680
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:14,000
Duct climbing.

681
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:15,000
No way. It's busted.

682
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:20,000
There's not any way that you're going to get up a duct surreptitiously without being detected.

683
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:23,000
And lasers?

684
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:27,000
Well, visible laser alarm systems don't even exist.

685
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:31,000
And yes, we were able to get around them, but you're only going to see them in Hollywood.

686
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:36,000
And infrared lasers, the ones people really use, the real deal, are virtually impossible to get past.

687
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:37,000
Really?

688
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:39,000
And then glass breaking was busted.

689
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:42,000
Okay, my personal favorite, safe cracking.

690
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:48,000
Well, yes, you did crack the safe, but not nearly as fast as they do in the movies.

691
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,000
With a little bit of practice, though, who knows?

692
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:53,000
Well, we have one final challenge for you.

693
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:54,000
What?

694
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:55,000
Whoa!

695
00:36:55,000 --> 00:37:02,000
You've cracked the safe, you've gotten the goods, and now you have to escape to a waiting helicopter on the roof.

696
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:04,000
Okay, sounds easy, but...

697
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:06,000
There are two things that make it harder.

698
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:08,000
One, you have to use your suction cups.

699
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:12,000
And two, it's a 23-story building!

700
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,000
Mr. Hick!

701
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:20,000
It's the final twist in the tale for this Hollywood heist.

702
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:31,000
Armed with the booty, Adam's last challenge is to make a Spider-Man-like escape by climbing this 23-story building using his suction cups.

703
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,000
Oh, dude.

704
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:37,000
Whoo!

705
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:39,000
Check it out, man.

706
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:41,000
Oh, yeah!

707
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:55,000
Look, I can tell you the number, 325 feet, 23 stories, but unless you're standing where I'm standing and looking at this view from here, it wouldn't sink in how bloody high in the air I am.

708
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:58,000
And how far there is to fall.

709
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:04,000
It is a situation that we need to be very, very careful because if we do something wrong, he could die.

710
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:05,000
Coming right up.

711
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:09,000
The bottom pad is stuck in the vent, in the building, on the building, on the building.

712
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:13,000
Adam breaks free and reaches for the sky.

713
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:30,000
In great Hollywood heists, Adam is about to see if he can clamber up this 23-story building using suction cups.

714
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:32,000
Fourth suction cup is on.

715
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,000
Oh, what did you do?

716
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:37,000
But almost immediately there's a problem.

717
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,000
That just shut it off.

718
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:44,000
We've got a short in the system that's stopping the vacuum pump from operating.

719
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:46,000
You found it, Jimmy?

720
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:48,000
Hold on, mate.

721
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:49,000
It's right here.

722
00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:50,000
Is it right there?

723
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:52,000
It's right at the key start.

724
00:38:52,000 --> 00:39:00,000
Adam's vacuum pump keeps shorting out, but because he's made his rig so complicated, fixing it ain't exactly like falling off a wall.

725
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,000
Okay, you're gonna, I can fix this.

726
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:04,000
I'm just gonna have to tape it on.

727
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:06,000
Just join the two together.

728
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:07,000
Yeah.

729
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:11,000
But after a tense 20 minutes, it's good for take two.

730
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:13,000
Am I ready to climb?

731
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:16,000
You're good to go.

732
00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:18,000
Oh, good luck there, little buddy.

733
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:19,000
Thank you.

734
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:23,000
At last, he's up and away and the crowd go ballistic.

735
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,000
But not for long.

736
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:32,000
Oh, I'm all right.

737
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,000
I'm okay.

738
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:38,000
After just three steps, Adam's a dropout.

739
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:40,000
Total disaster.

740
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:43,000
Good thing our motto is failure is always an option.

741
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:47,000
Well, you know, any results are a result, that's for sure.

742
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:50,000
It looks to me like you've got a few bugs in the system now.

743
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:53,000
This isn't for the kids, but...

744
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:59,000
As the team heads inside for a post-mortem, let's see how it should be done.

745
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:03,000
In 1981, without any safety backup,

746
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:07,000
adrenaline junkie Dan Goodwin scaled more than 100 stories

747
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:11,000
using only steel hooks and suction cups.

748
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:14,000
We're gonna wait at the zoo and this is definitely better than watching elephants.

749
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:20,000
Unfortunately, when he came down in the elevator, he was immediately arrested.

750
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:24,000
But if Spider Dan could do it, why not, Adam?

751
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:27,000
This is an awful rig, basically.

752
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:33,000
You've got straps everywhere, wires everywhere, tubes everywhere, switches.

753
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:37,000
If it doesn't work, you don't really know what's going wrong

754
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:43,000
and where without having to kind of unravel the whole rat's nest and figure it out.

755
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:45,000
It's a pain.

756
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,000
After those words of encouragement...

757
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:49,000
The system checks out okay.

758
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:53,000
It's time for Adam to reach for the skies, but with the crowd getting restless

759
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:58,000
and the rain beginning to fall, his nerves are starting to show.

760
00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:00,000
I don't have a lot of time to hang like this.

761
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:02,000
My right foot is stuck.

762
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:05,000
The bottom pad is stuck in the vent, in the building.

763
00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:07,000
On the building.

764
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,000
There we go.

765
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:15,000
Once Adam's footloose and fancy free, his rig seems to be working.

766
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,000
Leg.

767
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:19,000
Hand.

768
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:20,000
Hand.

769
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:22,000
Leg.

770
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:27,000
He keeps repeating the mantra, hand, hand, leg, leg, and to good effect.

771
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:29,000
Leg.

772
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:32,000
He gets past the third floor.

773
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:36,000
Then he guerns his way past the fourth.

774
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:42,000
While the suction cups no longer suck, another problem is starting to rast.

775
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:47,000
Adam hadn't counted on the sheer effort needed for this climb.

776
00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:53,000
He's panting harder than a dog in the desert, and exhaustion is not concentration's friend.

777
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:55,000
Hand.

778
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:57,000
Leg.

779
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:04,000
Hanging by a thread, Adam decides enough is enough.

780
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:06,000
Guys, I'm done.

781
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:08,000
I'm ready to be lowered down.

782
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,000
I've stopped moving around.

783
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:12,000
More strength, that's about it for me.

784
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:17,000
It's been a valued effort, but unlike the guys in the movies, Adam just hasn't got the brawn.

785
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:20,000
And sure ain't a superhero.

786
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:23,000
I think I proved the concept that you can climb a while with suction cups.

787
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:26,000
I don't think anyone had a hard time imagining that that was plausible.

788
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:32,000
But as a viable way to get into a building, for crying out loud, you need to be an Olympic athlete.

789
00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:34,000
Like me.

790
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:36,000
Leg.

791
00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:41,000
The famous motto of the Olympic Games is, swifter, higher, and braver.

792
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:45,000
Unfortunately, Adam failed on all three counts.

793
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:50,000
Slower, lower, and meek would be a little more apt.

794
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:57,000
So we can get out of the rain. How are we going to wrap this one up? Magnets.

795
00:42:57,000 --> 00:43:04,000
Well, you know, if you happen to have an all-steel building that you wanted to climb, and personally, I don't know of any.

796
00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:08,000
But if you had one, you could, but it's not practical.

797
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:11,000
So I would say it's plausible but not practical.

798
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:13,000
I would come to the same conclusion for the suction cups.

799
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:17,000
We have definitely a proof of concept on this beautiful building.

800
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:20,000
But it is probably the dumbest way you could choose to get entry.

801
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:21,000
Take the elevator.

802
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:23,000
Yeah, plausible but impractical.

803
00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:24,000
Alright.

804
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:25,000
Let's go get dry.

805
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:26,000
Alright.
