1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,000 on this episode of Mythbusters. 2 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:20,000 Doctors Heinemann and Savage raid the arch-tives for a movie myth about a bike flip. 3 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:26,000 If you poke a pole in the front spokes, will it really flip out? 4 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:29,000 Timing was perfect. 5 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:31,000 If you say so, Junior. 6 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:40,000 And Carrie Grant and Tori are breaking bad to test tall tales of prison breaks. 7 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:48,000 They want to know if you can repel the freedom using bedsheets, toilet paper and hair. 8 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:58,000 Who are the Mythbusters? 9 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,000 Adam Savage. 10 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,000 That's 100% wacky right there. 11 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:03,000 And Jamie Heinemann. 12 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:04,000 Pain is your friend. 13 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:09,000 Between them more than 30 years of special effects experience. 14 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,000 Joining them, Carrie Byron. 15 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:13,000 Let's do it. 16 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:14,000 Grant Imahara. 17 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,000 Danger, warning, warning. 18 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,000 And Tori Belleggi. 19 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,000 Okay, you want to play a rough little golfer? 20 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,000 They don't just tell the Myths. 21 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:40,000 They put them to the test. 22 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,000 Let me guess. 23 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:44,000 Indiana Jones? 24 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:45,000 Yes. 25 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:48,000 Cast your mind back to Indiana Jones and the last crusade. 26 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,000 Indy and his father are racing away from the Nazis on a motorcycle. 27 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:55,000 Nazis come up alongside them and are bound to get them, but Indy doesn't have a weapon. 28 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:59,000 Quickly thinking he grabs a flagpole, jams it in the front spokes of the Nazi motorcycle hand. 29 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:04,000 The motorcycle flips up in the air, end over end, bad time for the Nazi. 30 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:05,000 Exactly. 31 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,000 That is our movieman. 32 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,000 It's a classic scene from the silver screen. 33 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:18,000 The doctors Jones, junior and senior are being chased by the third Reich on bikes. 34 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:27,000 But a flagpole in the front wheel of the nearest Nazi and a motorcycle flip out sees our hero escape with a trademark cheesy grid. 35 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:35,000 This one's really interesting from a physics sense because when I look at that scene, it doesn't seem awkward or out of place. 36 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:42,000 But it does beg the question, is it really that easy to redirect all the energy that's going this way to going that way? 37 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:49,000 I'm thinking that we break it down to its constituent components, test each one and then put them all back together for a full sized finale. 38 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:50,000 This'll be fun. 39 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,000 It's been years since I've been on a motorcycle. 40 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:55,000 Ever since that gang, right? 41 00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:01,000 So first things first, it's a motorcycle myth and we'll be needing a... 42 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:02,000 That's a bike. 43 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:03,000 Exactly. 44 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,000 Oh, it's lovely. 45 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,000 I actually rode across a country in one of these things. 46 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:09,000 No way. 47 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,000 I'm just reeling from learning something about you I didn't know. 48 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,000 Seems that there's a never ending supply of those. 49 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:18,000 It's a single cylinder four cycle, we call them a thumper. 50 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:22,000 It's not like, it's like an old fashioned bike. 51 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:27,000 Okay, it may be old fashioned, but the movie bikes are vintage World War II. 52 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:28,000 I know what you're saying. 53 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:32,000 You're saying this really doesn't look like a vintage World War II era motorcycle. 54 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:42,000 And it is, in fact it's from 1981, but it is the exact model of bike used by the stuntmen to perform their stunts for Indiana Jones and the last crusade. 55 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:49,000 Which means that it and not some vintage bike is the perfect test platform for us for this myth. 56 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:55,000 Now that that's sorted, let's kick things off as Adam and Jamie focus on the first aspect of the myth. 57 00:03:55,000 --> 00:04:05,000 Since this myth is all about the poking of a flagpole into the spokes of a motorcycle, one of the things we want to know is how fast can we poke a flagpole? 58 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:09,000 Because once they know the speed of a human flagpole poke, 59 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:12,000 Nice tiger. 60 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:17,000 They can calibrate their remaining tests to just that. 61 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,000 It's plain funny to let you exert yourself like that. 62 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,000 I don't know why exactly, it just is. 63 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,000 I comment. 64 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,000 Whatever floats your goat. 65 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:32,000 And the high comedy on the high speed reveals the magic number to be 30 miles per hour. 66 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,000 Q part two of the experiment. 67 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,000 A remote control flagpole thruster. 68 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:43,000 You might remember this puppy right here from birds on a truck because this was our pigeon catcher. 69 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:46,000 Yep, it's not a prop from Mad Max. 70 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,000 It really is a pigeon catcher. 71 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,000 Not that it caught any pigeons. 72 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:59,000 It has an air reservoir, it has a valve, it has everything we need to shoot the stick into the wheels of the motorcycle. 73 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,000 I just need to change the barrel a bit and we'll be good to go. 74 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:06,000 In three, two, one. 75 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:16,000 Yeah, that looked a tad faster than 30 miles an hour to me. 76 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,000 But let's see what Adam thinks. 77 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,000 That might be a little too fast. 78 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,000 That's what I said. 79 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:28,000 Is everybody okay? 80 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:32,000 That's dangerous. 81 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,000 Yeah, we might have to tune that one back. 82 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:39,000 The only problem that we're finding with this rig is that it seems to be giving us too much bang for our buck right now. 83 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:40,000 What? 84 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,000 That's 143 miles per hour. 85 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,000 Almost no pressure in this tank. 86 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:53,000 This valve is so big that the stick is still going at like 50 miles an hour, which is way faster than either of us could throw the flagpole. 87 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,000 I'm not going to get tired of that. 88 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:01,000 And so to get the speed they need around 30 miles per hour, 89 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:05,000 This is an exceedingly weird operation. 90 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,000 They add some hose to decrease the pressure. 91 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:12,000 Firing in three, two, one. 92 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,000 That might be it. 93 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,000 That's it. That's the butter zone. 94 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:20,000 12 psi, we get 28 and a half miles per hour. 95 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:21,000 That's perfect. 96 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:25,000 As odd as this sounds, after destroying their wooden backstop, 97 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:31,000 they finally got the X pigeon catcher throwing a flagpole at a realistic speed. 98 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:44,000 This might sound crazy, but a lot of the fans are saying that you can actually make rope out of toilet paper, 99 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:48,000 and it'll be strong enough that you can scale down a jail wall and escape. 100 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,000 Toilet paper, are you serious? 101 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:55,000 Alright, well if we're going to do that, I think we should do the all-time classic, making a rope out of bed sheets. 102 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:59,000 I know it's kind of out there, but let's also do the Rapunzel version of this, where you make a rope out of hair. 103 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:00,000 Ew. 104 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:10,000 Any prison break worth its place in urban folklore involves a death-defying descent from a great height, 105 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:14,000 including these fan-side fables. 106 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:23,000 Desperate convicts, eager to be ex-convicts, have escaped jail with the apparent aid of cell-made ropes of toilet paper and bed sheets. 107 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:30,000 And if you include Rapunzel's luscious locks, that's three hair-brained escape plans to test. 108 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,000 So how are we going to test this? 109 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:37,000 Why don't we each take one of the materials, make our ropes, and see which one of us makes it down the side of the building. 110 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,000 And may the best rope win. 111 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,000 Wait, wait, I want bed sheets then. 112 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,000 Too late! 113 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:45,000 Yes, in a vertical-inducing finale... 114 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,000 Oh my god, I'm going to throw up. 115 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:57,000 Our fun-loving criminals will find out for real if the ropes made from their mythical materials will aid in a bet their jailbreak. 116 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,000 Stupidest idea ever. 117 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,000 Or send them plummeting to their doom. 118 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:07,000 But before all that, let's take you back to the beginning. 119 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:13,000 Where Carrie's plan for a braided escape is giving her a bad hair day. 120 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,000 Is this not the most disgusting thing you've ever seen? 121 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:18,000 An entire box of just hair? 122 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:26,000 Yes, coming in at number one on the weirdest raw material chart are 50 human hair ponytails. 123 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:30,000 I have to break out of a building that's 14 stories high. 124 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:35,000 So I have to make a rope that is 140 feet long. 125 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:39,000 I think the difficulty here is not going to necessarily be the strength of the hair, because this feels really strong. 126 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:42,000 I think it's going to be where the hair splices together. 127 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:47,000 I have to come up with some sort of knotting or braiding system that it won't slide apart and, you know, 100 feet down. 128 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,000 I'm not just going to plummet to the earth. 129 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,000 And it's gross. 130 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:56,000 Meanwhile, Grant's mythical method is a little more conventional and a film fugitive favorite. 131 00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:04,000 So in order to make sure we have maximum authenticity here, we've gotten these bed sheets from our friends in Alameda County. 132 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:07,000 And they're actual county jail linens. 133 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:11,000 But he's not only keeping it real, he's keeping it simple. 134 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:23,000 My plan is to extend them lengthwise so that they're the full seven feet long, and then hold it into a rope type shape and knot them together. 135 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:32,000 And finally, Tori, who has some serious tensile strength issues with his authentic one-ply prison issue tissue. 136 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:36,000 There you have it. It's not strong enough. 137 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,000 But he's a man with a plan. 138 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:45,000 If you look at the toilet paper, it's perforated for your convenience of pulling off one sheet at a time. 139 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,000 Already, it's got this built-in weak leak. 140 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:52,000 So I think twisting it, rolling it will give me the extra strength that I need. 141 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:58,000 Look at that. The same amount of toilet paper just wrapped up is strong enough to now hold the three kilos. 142 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:01,000 So this is the way I'm going to make my toilet paper rope. 143 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:17,000 The last crusade to hold Hollywood to scientific account has given the team some memorable moments of movie mayhem. 144 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,000 The boat is on the ground. 145 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:31,000 But on this last crusade, the team are tackling the tall tale that a stick between the spokes can cause a head over handlebars flip. 146 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:38,000 So far, they've got their bike and rigged a remote control flagpole thruster. 147 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,000 So what's next? 148 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:46,000 When this bike is moving at highway speeds, the spokes are going so fast you can hardly see them. 149 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:54,000 So what we need to find out is whether it's possible for a human to thrust a stick into those spokes fast enough to get them cleanly through there. 150 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:58,000 And then once that occurs, what happens to the wheel? 151 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:05,000 And to get the wheel spinning at chase scene speeds, 50 miles per hour, Adam whips up a dynamometer. 152 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:10,000 So the dynamometer is fully built and constructed, ready to spin this wheel up and I'm going to explain... 153 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,000 I don't really need to explain how it works, do I? 154 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:17,000 The motor drives the chain, drives the wheel, spins it up to speed, we poke it with the stick, it's pretty straightforward. 155 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:21,000 And now it's time for the old spoken poke test. 156 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:27,000 So with the bike secured, this test is all about the space between the spokes and not the full flip. 157 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:29,000 This is going to be cool. 158 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:34,000 Will a flagpole thrusted realistic speed actually penetrate the wheel? 159 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,000 Three, two, one. 160 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,000 Apparently not. 161 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,000 Well that was a bit of a let down. 162 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,000 Yes, the stick just bounced right back out. 163 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:53,000 And after a second test under the same conditions, produces a similar result, the guys decide they're missing the point. 164 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:57,000 On the stick and on the wheel. 165 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,000 And they want to aim the stick back towards here. 166 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,000 Like the movie, the guys were aiming at three o'clock. 167 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:09,000 But as that last test showed, in the time it takes to hit the spokes at ten o'clock, the flagpole can wobble free. 168 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,000 So take three. 169 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,000 Only this time, they're targeting nine o'clock. 170 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:15,000 Fireing. 171 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:18,000 Three, two, one. 172 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:19,000 Perfect. 173 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:20,000 Penetration. 174 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:21,000 Wheel stoppage. 175 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:25,000 And as a bonus, some controlled mayhem. 176 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,000 We broke some stuff. 177 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:30,000 We successfully stopped the wheel with the stick. 178 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:31,000 And that's great. 179 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:34,000 That's 15 pounds coming to a dead stop from 50 miles an hour. 180 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,000 But this was a stationary test. 181 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:44,000 When we go out on the road with this, there are hundreds of pounds in this bike, plus the rider that want to keep on going. 182 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,000 And that's where the real fun is going to start. 183 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:54,000 So it turns out it actually is possible to get a flagpole in between the spokes of a motorcycle wheel while it's going 50 miles an hour. 184 00:12:54,000 --> 00:13:02,000 Yeah, you know, I don't see anything holding us up from putting this motorcycle on a trailer, dragging it behind a truck, and trying this test full size at speed. 185 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:05,000 And then if there's any truth at all to this myth, bikes get an airborne. 186 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:06,000 Exactly. 187 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:11,000 So it's full scale ahead, and the plan in the can looks a lot like this. 188 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:16,000 At the push of a button, the bike and buster will begin freewheeling. 189 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:20,000 That in turn will trigger the flagpole flinger. 190 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,000 And jam the stick into the spokes. 191 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:28,000 And to get things rolling in the right direction, Adam's reinventing the wheel. 192 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:33,000 Well, the first problem I think we've got to solve is exemplified by taking a look at this footage again. 193 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:34,000 Yeah, see that? 194 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:42,000 Okay, the hubbed, spoked wheel, it's not really ideal for us to shove a stick into because those spokes are not going to stay put. 195 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:47,000 We need a wheel that can stay put under continued abuse for repeated tests. 196 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,000 And we're going to use steel plate to do it. 197 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:52,000 We've had two of these, plasma cut at a quarter inch steel plate. 198 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:59,000 We're going to bolt them to one of the motorcycle rims, have a tire put back on it, and a couple of flange mounted pillow blocks on the axle, 199 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,000 and that ought to hold up to everything we can throw at it. 200 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:06,000 The road warrior would be proud. 201 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:09,000 This thing is absolutely as solid as a rock. 202 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:10,000 It's perfect. 203 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,000 For the prison break parable. 204 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,000 This place can't hold me. 205 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:21,000 Grant Iron Man Imahara. 206 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,000 We're busting out of here, see? 207 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,000 Carrie Knuckles Byron. 208 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:26,000 Come on. 209 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:27,000 I was free. 210 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:30,000 And Don Salvatore Bellegi. 211 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:31,000 I'm not telling you. 212 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:35,000 Are pretending to be put away in order to break out. 213 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,000 Prisoners, step in, lock down. 214 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:47,000 They're going to find out if you can affect an escape with ropes made of bed sheets, toilet paper, and hair. 215 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:52,000 In my collection of hair, I've gathered from the shower and all the rat tails I've been stealing. 216 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:57,000 I will have no problem making a rope and getting out of here. 217 00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:01,000 But despite being forced to use authentic cell-made materials. 218 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,000 Gordon, I got diarrhea. 219 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:04,000 I need more toilet paper. 220 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:09,000 The guys won't really have to prepare their escape in their cells. 221 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,000 They get to do that back at the shop. 222 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:18,000 Where Tori has worked out that if he twists one ply prison-issue tissue, it becomes less fragile. 223 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:19,000 Look at that. 224 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:20,000 Pretty cool. 225 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,000 But can it really be made into rope? 226 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:26,000 As you can see, I'm twisting the toilet paper into little strings. 227 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,000 Once I have enough strings, I'll weave it into a rope. 228 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,000 And hopefully that will be strong enough to hold my weight. 229 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,000 And that'll be my ticket out of this joint. 230 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:38,000 This process is taking a long time, but let's face it, I'm in jail. 231 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,000 I got nothing but time. 232 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:43,000 Someday I'll be free. 233 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:51,000 It may be time-consuming, but before modern manufacturing techniques, this is exactly how real rope was made. 234 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:54,000 Fibers of material were twisted into yarns. 235 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:59,000 A few of these yarns were twisted in the opposite direction to form threads. 236 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:04,000 And again, several of these were counter-twisted to form rope. 237 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:09,000 So it might sound crazy, but Tori could be onto something. 238 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,000 I'm going to get out of jail no time. 239 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:17,000 Meanwhile, Carrie's about to find out if her plan for a great escape is even viable. 240 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:24,000 I'm a little nervous about the strength of the hair, so I've got a knotted piece here that I was actually just going to try my weight on. 241 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:31,000 I'm really kind of nervous about this, because of that factor. 242 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:40,000 Maybe I need to find some inmates with some less healthy, slippery hair, some good fried-out bleach-blonde inmates. 243 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:46,000 Yeah, or maybe, just like a conventional rope, you can braid a number of those single strands together. 244 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:52,000 I'm going to take three braids and tie them all into one braid, so that it's sort of how rope works, 245 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:58,000 where if one fails, it has two more to kind of depend on, and hopefully that can give it more strength. 246 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:03,000 Unfortunately, I'm getting claw hands from, like, all the braiding. 247 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:09,000 And that just leaves Grant, who got lucky with the least labor-intensive material. 248 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:15,000 The bed sheet is beautiful because you can go to the prison laundry still as many as you need. 249 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:21,000 You don't need 100 years to make your bed sheet rope neat about, I don't know, maybe two hours. 250 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:25,000 And you're climbing your way to freedom. 251 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:29,000 However, the toilet paper plan is taking a lot, lot longer. 252 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,000 I need to spread my wings and fly. 253 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:43,000 So to speed things up, our crafty criminal uses his mastermind to good effect by twisting multiple strands at once and cheat it. 254 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:47,000 So I've taken five sheets of toilet paper, twisted them together to create this. 255 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:51,000 Now I'm going to take three of these, wrap them together, and then take that and wrap that together, 256 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:55,000 and hopefully create a rope that's going to be strong enough to hold up my weight. 257 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:59,000 But before I do that, I'm going to do a little magic. 258 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,000 The Amazing Balichi! 259 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:20,000 Meanwhile, over in Grant's cell, he's testing to see if the sheets can take the strain. 260 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:25,000 So what we have here is a single, standard Alameda County bed sheet, 261 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:31,000 not tied at the top, threaded through 150 pounds of weight, which is equivalent to my body weight. 262 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:35,000 And as you can see, it's actually doing quite well so far. 263 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:40,000 Outside in the exercise yard, Tori is also ready for a strength test. 264 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:43,000 This might work! 265 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:47,000 Carrie, however, is still desperately braiding and plating. 266 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:52,000 She's more concerned about the hair's joints and splices than its tensile strength. 267 00:18:53,000 --> 00:19:00,000 After all, keratin, the major protein component of hair, is as hard as nails, literally. 268 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:04,000 It's also the stuff that forms horns, claws, and hoofs. 269 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:08,000 The question is, will it also make rope? 270 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:14,000 Jamie and Adam are flipping out. 271 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,000 That might be a little too fast. 272 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:24,000 Testing the movie myth that jamming a stick between the spokes will cause a motorcycle flip out. 273 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,000 But they've got a tough build ahead. 274 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:35,000 In order to go full scale with this, we need to both be able to hold this bike and let go of it at very precise timing. 275 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:41,000 So we're going to start by building a trailer that holds it upright, that on the push of a button releases it, 276 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:45,000 and then once it's released, will fire a stick right through those front spokes. 277 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:50,000 In engineering terms, there's a mountain to climb, 278 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:55,000 and what better way to show the passage of time than a montage. 279 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:04,000 And a cross dissolve later, the rig is ready to roll. 280 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:06,000 But before the cameras do, 281 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:09,000 Wouldn't I married you if I knew you were so heavy? 282 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:12,000 The team needs a change of scenery. 283 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:13,000 Ready? 284 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:14,000 Yep, let's go. 285 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:20,000 And the location they've chosen is, surprise, the disused runway at Alameda. 286 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,000 It's a good day for a motorcycle accident. 287 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:23,000 I think so. 288 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:24,000 Let's make it few. 289 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:29,000 Unlikely to have a motorcycle accident is Jamie. 290 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:33,000 Our very own cross country motorbiking myth buster. 291 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,000 But Adam, let's trade. 292 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,000 Well, that's a different story. 293 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:41,000 How do I do this? 294 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,000 I'm not so sure this is a good idea. 295 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:48,000 Adam on a motorcycle. 296 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:53,000 Even with seat belts, I worry about Adam. 297 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:58,000 Are you done yet? 298 00:20:58,000 --> 00:20:59,000 We got some work to do. 299 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:00,000 Let's get busy. 300 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:01,000 All right, let's do it. 301 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:03,000 Oh, oh. 302 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:08,000 So while Jamie reassembles the trailer and release rig, 303 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:11,000 Adam brightens up the bike for its big scene. 304 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,000 And then it gives Buster, hey little buddy, 305 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:18,000 our soon to be crash victim, matching safety wear. 306 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,000 You're not going to prison, you're going on a ride. 307 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:25,000 And with Buster's ride secured to the trailer, 308 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,000 he's ready for a test run. 309 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,000 This may look pretty straightforward, 310 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,000 but it's a pretty complicated rig. 311 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,000 And there's a lot of little things which we're not sure 312 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:36,000 exactly how they might react to getting up to speed. 313 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:37,000 So that's the first thing we're going to do. 314 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,000 Get the whole rig up to speed and just see how it runs. 315 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:45,000 But before they even get up to speed, Buster looks like he's DUI. 316 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:46,000 Well, now that's a problem. 317 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,000 Yeah, that's what we wanted to see. 318 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,000 For those of you playing along at home, 319 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,000 here's what we were trying to do and here's where it went wrong. 320 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,000 We were attempting to pull the motorcycle by the handlebars. 321 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:59,000 When you're riding a motorcycle, that's an excellent way to steer it. 322 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,000 But when you're pulling on it, you're effectively pulling it 323 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:05,000 from behind its axle and that makes it very difficult 324 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:09,000 because any slop in that system means the bike wants to do everything 325 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,000 but travel in a straight line. 326 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,000 It's slowly creeping over. 327 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:16,000 So we are going to modify our rig to pull the bike 328 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,000 from exactly on its axle. 329 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:20,000 We're going to put in a three-quarter inch rod 330 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:21,000 that is about two feet long. 331 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,000 We're going to put it up on a little shelf. 332 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:24,000 That's too far. 333 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,000 Now it's got to come back. 334 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,000 We're still going to use the same release system we have 335 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,000 but that should make the wheel travel straight 336 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:34,000 and true and allow us to drag this thing all day long and do our testing. 337 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:38,000 So after several hours of hard work, it's crises averted. 338 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,000 Looking pretty good from my perspective. 339 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,000 And happy is back. 340 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:43,000 So the new rig is set. 341 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:47,000 We are bringing the truck in and we're ready for what is still to be 342 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:48,000 our first test run. 343 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:51,000 But honestly, actually it's been great trying to solve this problem 344 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,000 in the field with little scraps of metal. 345 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,000 I feel very positive. 346 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,000 That's if it works. 347 00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:00,000 And with the truck easing up to 25 miles per hour. 348 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,000 I don't see any problem with that. 349 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:06,000 Buster stays upright and has no problems keeping in line. 350 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:07,000 So we've had a few setbacks. 351 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,000 We've tweaked and tuned the rig. 352 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,000 Now it's time to start the mayhem. 353 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,000 Start the mayhem! 354 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:18,000 Chailed for science. 355 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:22,000 Carrie, Grant and Tori are going a little stir crazy. 356 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,000 Man, I gotta get out of here. 357 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,000 If only we could figure out a way to escape. 358 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,000 If only we had a rope or something. 359 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:34,000 Yes, they're putting three mythical rope making materials to the test. 360 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:40,000 The hair's been braided, the toilet paper twisted, and the sheets rolled and knotted. 361 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:45,000 Which means our ingenious inmates are ready to become outmates. 362 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:50,000 And the coop they'll be flying from is the Alameda County Courthouse Jail. 363 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:55,000 They have to repel from the roof using only their cell-made ropes. 364 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:02,000 Alright you guys, it's a moment of truth for our prison escape ropes. 365 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:08,000 We've got 100% human hair, toilet paper rope, and the old school classic bed sheet. 366 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:11,000 Well since yours is probably the most likely to work, maybe you should go first. 367 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:15,000 She shows how it's done, and then this way we can test out the SWAT team safety mechanism. 368 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,000 Fine, I will! 369 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,000 Good luck man. 370 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:21,000 Alright, freedom! 371 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:22,000 Freedom! 372 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,000 I'm going first, I like that. 373 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:29,000 So Grant, the nominated human guinea pig, is first up. 374 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:32,000 But rest assured, he's in safe hands. 375 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:36,000 Jack Tucker and Mike Norton are SWAT team repel masters. 376 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:42,000 And they've rigged a harness and rope system that will allow Grant to climb unassisted. 377 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,000 Unless he falls. 378 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:46,000 I got full confidence in the SWAT guys. 379 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:49,000 They specialize in two things, repelling and kicking ass. 380 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,000 So I feel completely safe. 381 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,000 Yeah, real safe. 382 00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:57,000 Well that certainly gets the juices flowing. 383 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:02,000 Um, yeah it's a little bit different perspective up here. 384 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:09,000 Okay, I can do this. 385 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:17,000 With every inch of that terrifying drop playing on his mind, Grant forces himself to focus on prepping for the climb. 386 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:20,000 So this is the moment of truth for my bed sheet rope. 387 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:26,000 And you actually escape using a bed sheet and not having break. 388 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,000 Hehehehehehe. 389 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,000 Okay, it's long enough. 390 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,000 Hehehehehe. 391 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:36,000 Okay. 392 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:43,000 So careful observers may note that I'm wearing in addition to my standard prison garb a safety harness. 393 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:50,000 Now the important thing is that the safety harness is only in case the rope breaks or there's some other problem. 394 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:52,000 Okay you guys, ready to go. 395 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:56,000 The bed sheet will be holding my entire weight the whole time. 396 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,000 Here I go. 397 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,000 Alright. 398 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:04,000 Grant's first careful steps are onto a convenient ledge just over the edge. 399 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:07,000 Holy sheet that's high. 400 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:12,000 But from here on in it's down to Grant and those knotted bed sheets. 401 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,000 Alright you guys ready? 402 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,000 Ready. 403 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,000 Here we go with the old school bed sheet. 404 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,000 Be careful little buddy. 405 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:24,000 Despite the concern below, the early signs are good. 406 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,000 He's doing the walk down the wall thing. 407 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,000 It looks like he's done this before. 408 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:30,000 You broken out of jail before? 409 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:33,000 Wow, those are holding up. 410 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,000 The bed sheets are holding up. 411 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,000 He's getting tired. 412 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:38,000 Oh man. 413 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:42,000 The question now is can Grant hold himself up? 414 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,000 Oh, oh, oh. 415 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:45,000 God. 416 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:46,000 He's just hanging. 417 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:47,000 He's just hanging. 418 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:49,000 Hang on buddy. 419 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:50,000 Don't let go. 420 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,000 You're almost free. 421 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:53,000 Atta boy. 422 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:54,000 This sucks. 423 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:55,000 You can do it. 424 00:26:55,000 --> 00:27:00,000 I've got climbing experience but there's nothing to hold onto up there except for the rope. 425 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,000 Pretend like your life depends on it. 426 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,000 Because it kind of does. 427 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:09,000 So thank god that I got those big knots in there because if I didn't have that, it'd be done. 428 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,000 Oh Grant, you're doing so good. 429 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:13,000 You're almost there dude. 430 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:14,000 You're halfway there. 431 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,000 The sheets are totally holding you up. 432 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:21,000 There were a couple places where I couldn't quite get a foothold and the rope just slipped in my hands 433 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:25,000 and that's where I got these hideous rope burns which are really, really hurting. 434 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:27,000 Look at the pain in his face. 435 00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,000 Freedom's like 20 feet away. 436 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:30,000 Yeah. 437 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:31,000 Ow. 438 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:32,000 Ow. 439 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:36,000 Yes, yes, yes, yes. 440 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:37,000 Let go. 441 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,000 You're there dude. 442 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:40,000 Yeah. 443 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,000 I'm free. 444 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:43,000 I'm free. 445 00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:45,000 Good fun. 446 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:47,000 Freedom. 447 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:50,000 But with a bad case of rope burns. 448 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:57,000 The good news is I can totally see why they put this in movies because the entire time the bed sheet was solid. 449 00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:02,000 There was no ripping, no tearing, no giving way of the bed sheet. 450 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:07,000 That was solid and you know I had been in a little bit better physical condition. 451 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:10,000 Probably would have gotten down that no problem. 452 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:16,000 And what that means is that scaling the jailhouse wall with a bed sheet rope is confirmed. 453 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,000 I'm free. 454 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:32,000 For those playing along at home, here's where we stand so far in the myth that jamming a flagpole into the front spokes of the motorcycle will cause it to flip up in the air. 455 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:43,000 We have gotten a motorcycle wheel up to 50 miles an hour and found out that yes, a human is totally capable of jamming a flagpole into that front wheel and stopping it. 456 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,000 We broke some stuff. 457 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:52,000 The question now is if you're doing that to a motorcycle that's moving, will it have the effect that the myth states? 458 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:57,000 The bike immediately stops and starts to cartwheel while going up in the air. 459 00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:58,000 Now we're going to see what happens for real. 460 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,000 Okay, that's where we've been, but where are we going? 461 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:03,000 So this is how this works. 462 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:10,000 We're sitting on the back of a flatbed truck moving down the runway and when I press this switch, I set into action a whole series of events. 463 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:14,000 The first series of events, he sets into action and our electrons moving down this wire. 464 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:17,000 Those electrons working so hard and beautifully, we get to this motor and start at the spin. 465 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:21,000 This motor mounted to this entire custom belt rig meant to hold this motorcycle in an upright position. 466 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:22,000 We'll start this all thread spinning. 467 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:25,000 This all thread is mounted to a nut in the center of the handlebars keeping it attached to the rig. 468 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,000 The nut in reverse will release the bike from the rig. 469 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:31,000 When the bike releases from the rig, it'll trip this little blast switch. 470 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:39,000 The brass switch will then send a signal to this two inch pilot valve holding back 25 pound per square inch of pressure inside the schedule 40 accumulation tag between custom belt. 471 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:43,000 The air once released will travel down this flexible hose into this cannon behind the Hickory stick, 472 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:46,000 sending the Hickory stick through the smokes of a custom built motorcycle wheel, 473 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:53,000 stopping the motorcycle on a dime, sending it up into the air and hopefully having everybody cheering for science. 474 00:29:53,000 --> 00:30:02,000 And with the crowd expectant, the team set up and step up for the first test at 25 miles per hour. 475 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:03,000 You know what I hope? 476 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,000 I hope it works. 477 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:05,000 Me too. 478 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:06,000 Alright, let's start it. 479 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:14,000 Buster looking every inch a crash test biker tailgates the truck ready for his moment of glory. 480 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:20,000 And once the team are at test speed, Adam calls it. 481 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:23,000 Firing in three, two, one. 482 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:26,000 That went through and stopped the wheel. 483 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,000 Okay, we'll stop. 484 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:29,000 Slow down and stop. 485 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:40,000 It all happened pretty fast, but a quick look at the high speed confirms the Rube Goldberg-esque rig worked like a dream. 486 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:43,000 Jamie hit the switch, Buster was released. 487 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,000 I see it clicking the switch. 488 00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:49,000 The cannon fired and the flagpole was jammed into the spokes. 489 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:53,000 Dude, the timing is just dead on. 490 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,000 Giving Buster a taste of asphalt. 491 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,000 How you doing, buddy? 492 00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:01,000 But there was no sign of the mythical flip. 493 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:04,000 It couldn't be better, but I didn't see no biker flippo. 494 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:09,000 Yep, no biker flippo, more of a biker topolo. 495 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,000 So what's next? 496 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:17,000 The next thing we're going to do is ramp the speed up a little bit so that the bike will tend to want to stay upright for longer. 497 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:22,000 And we'll probably get a little more energy in the process, which means a bigger flip if we're going to get one at all. 498 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:24,000 So it's take two. 499 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:26,000 Holding up well. 500 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:29,000 And this time they take the truck to 40. 501 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:33,000 Okay, firing in three, two, one, go. 502 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:36,000 Oh! 503 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:38,000 Okay, he can stop. 504 00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,000 Stop, stop. 505 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:46,000 So the additional momentum didn't help the bike get airborne. 506 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:53,000 Instead, that extra energy was used to snap the flagpole in half. 507 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:57,000 You know what? That right there is the test. 508 00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:59,000 That's the test. 509 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:02,000 And it didn't work. It broke the stick. 510 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:04,000 I think that was the circumstances of the myth right there. 511 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,000 We got the bike going at 40 miles per hour. 512 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:08,000 We got the stick firing perfectly into the spokes. 513 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:13,000 It didn't stop the bike, it didn't flip the bike, and it broke the stick. 514 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,000 So what's next? 515 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:20,000 Stronger stick. That was the circumstances. Let's try and get the results with a big, fat steel stick. 516 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,000 Steel it is. 517 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:27,000 And now, just like Buster, the myth is down, but not quite out. 518 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:35,000 Carrie, Tori and Grant have had success with the first of their repel to freedom tests. 519 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:38,000 Yeah! They're free! 520 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,000 I'm free! 521 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:44,000 This myth is absolutely confirmed, and I love it when myth circumfirms. 522 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:48,000 The rope did not break. You can make a bed sheet rope and escape from jail. 523 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,000 Let's not air this in the prisons. 524 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:52,000 The first one down, literally. 525 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,000 I'm free! 526 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:56,000 With two to go. 527 00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:59,000 Now that the sheets are confirmed, it's time to see if all your hard work is going to pay off. 528 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:01,000 You look kind of nervous. Are you okay? 529 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:03,000 I am kind of nervous. 530 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:05,000 Good luck. See you on the outside. 531 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:08,000 I'm not afraid of heights, but I'm really afraid of falling. 532 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:14,000 And I'm not a mountain climber. This will be the first time I really will have done anything remotely like this. 533 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:16,000 So, yeah, I'm nervous. 534 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,000 Oh my God, I'm going to throw up. 535 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:26,000 And no wonder she's nervous. It's clear hair isn't exactly an ideal rope making material. 536 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:34,000 I was watching her form the rope, and there were many times where she had to take it apart because she would test it and it would just go whoosh. 537 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:43,000 She's got multiple strands, you know, forming a big, thick rope of hair, but at this point my confidence isn't especially high. 538 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,000 And neither is Carrie's. 539 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:47,000 Whose hairball idea is this? 540 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:53,000 Well, it's a hair brain plan for sure, but it's too late to turn back now. 541 00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:58,000 We're about to find out if that hairy lifeline will cut it. 542 00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:04,000 Oh, it's looking pretty good so far, actually. 543 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,000 Well, the hair is holding up. 544 00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:07,000 That's great. 545 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:09,000 It's incredible how strong it is. 546 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,000 Whoa! 547 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:20,000 It defies belief, but Carrie's descent is being supported by nothing more than a 140 feet long triple braided ponytail. 548 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:22,000 How's it going, Carrie? 549 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:23,000 I see split ends. 550 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:24,000 You should have used conditioner. 551 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,000 They're split ends! 552 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:31,000 Hair care issues aside, Carrie's descent is going spectacularly well. 553 00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:32,000 You're almost free! 554 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:38,000 The redundancy of the three separate braids seems to have solved the splice slipping problem. 555 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,000 Oh, yeah! 556 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:44,000 And her technique of sliding instead of climbing is just perfect. 557 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:46,000 Yeah! 558 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,000 You did it! 559 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:50,000 The hair didn't break. 560 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:53,000 I've got to say I'm totally amazed. 561 00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:54,000 My hands?

604 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,000 Oh, so many things. 605 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:52,000 But if it goes according to plan, Buster will soon be taking a short, dizzying flight with a mandatory crash landing. 606 00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:56,000 Okay, pulling three, two, one, go! 607 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:04,000 Give me five there. 608 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:13,000 Another smooth execution by the rig, and you could say the guys are pleased. 609 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,000 Well, that seemed to work just beautifully. 610 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:17,000 It doesn't get any prettier than that. 611 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:19,000 And the bike did not flip. 612 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:22,000 No, the tire skidded. You know, that's it. That's the perfect test. 613 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:26,000 It's forward momentum. It doesn't transfer immediately to vertical momentum. 614 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:29,000 It makes all the sense in the world now that I've seen it happen. 615 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:34,000 You know, you could stop the bad guy that way if you happen to have a steel kite, but it's not getting airborne. 616 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:37,000 It just won't happen. It's going to do exactly that. 617 00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:40,000 Dude, that totally worked. We can aide. 618 00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:46,000 The most important thing to keep in mind about this test is the traction between this wheel and the road surface. 619 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:48,000 Nice work, Buster! 620 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:54,000 If you bring the wheel to a dead stop, like you will if you put a stick between the spokes, it's going to skid. 621 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:58,000 You're going to lose control. It'll slip out from under the bike and it's all over. 622 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:01,000 It will not get it airborne like it did in the movie. 623 00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:04,000 Oh, so satisfying. 624 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:08,000 So, no bike old flippo, even with the mayo. 625 00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:14,000 You know what we have to do though now? We have to finish on a bike that's doing a flip. 626 00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:16,000 Hook or my crook, we have to finish with that. 627 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:19,000 Physics one, movies zero. 628 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:25,000 And so it's back to the shop to square the account and find out the physics of film effects. 629 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:30,000 Dude, check this out. It looks like this whole scene is just a trick of editing. 630 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:33,000 You can see that when the bike takes off, it's totally stationary. 631 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:38,000 And if I frame forward a couple frames, you can see a small explosion underneath. 632 00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:40,000 That's a classic Hollywood slide of hand. 633 00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:45,000 Yeah, it's pretty clear that if we're going to do this Hollywood style, we're going to need some explosives to get that bike in the air. 634 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:46,000 We need a boom. 635 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:47,000 Exactly. 636 00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:54,000 Yep, so the key is TNT. And with that in mind, our special effects specialists get back to work. 637 00:39:54,000 --> 00:40:02,000 This is what is known as a mortar. Now this is what is going to make the bike do what we couldn't do with a stick through the spokes. 638 00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:12,000 We're going to fill this with gunpowder. We're going to put it underneath the bike and it's going to fire a bunch of black powder shooting the bike way up in the air and spinning while it does it. 639 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:18,000 To survive that black powder powered flight, the bike gets a once over for matter. 640 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:27,000 This may look like an ordinary bike, sure, but in fact this bike has now realized the dream of all bikes, which is to be a stunt bike. 641 00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:34,000 I've reinforced its skeletal structure so that it can be punched from behind the engine and fly up in the air to glory. 642 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:38,000 Sounds great, unless your name happens to be Buster. 643 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:46,000 To get to the bottom of the toilet paper jailbreak. 644 00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:49,000 Oh, this prison food's killing me. 645 00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:53,000 You need to put more fiber in the damn food. 646 00:40:53,000 --> 00:41:00,000 Tari has taken a swipe at making a rope from genuine one-ply perforated prison poop paper. 647 00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:06,000 So my toilet paper rope is done. It's taken me a long time and it looks like rope. However, it's still only toilet paper. 648 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:09,000 So I'm hoping it's going to be strong enough to hold up my weight. 649 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:12,000 His chances are made of paper. 650 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:15,000 Is Escape Techniques paper thin? 651 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:19,000 We've got to get out of here. We've got to put us in the looty bin. 652 00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:24,000 Toilet paper rope, Escape? Probably the stupidest idea ever. 653 00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:27,000 It's not that stupid. You've got stupider ideas. 654 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:30,000 I'm going to kick your butt if I survive, Grant. 655 00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:33,000 Watch that first step. She's a doozy. 656 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:40,000 And that first step is also the crucial moment when nothing but toilet paper is taking Tari's weight. 657 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:43,000 Oh my god. 658 00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:51,000 But incredibly, a few expletives aside, it's all going according to plan. Sort of. 659 00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:57,000 Toilet paper is used to wipe your butt, not climb down a building. 660 00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:02,000 It seems the real issue with the tissue is finding a firm grip. 661 00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:04,000 I'm off. 662 00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,000 You okay? 663 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:14,000 And that, right there, is why we hired the SWAT team. 664 00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:17,000 Tori slipped. 665 00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:22,000 And if it wasn't for the safety harness, he was a gunner. 666 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:25,000 But aside from that sudden and terrifying drop... 667 00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:27,000 Yes, dude, you're almost there. 668 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:33,000 Tori and the toilet paper hold firm and make it safely to Tara Ferma. 669 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:35,000 Freedom! 670 00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,000 You did it! 671 00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:41,000 There's no... 672 00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:45,000 Who would have thought toilet paper works to escape? 673 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:49,000 I'm amazed. I'm amazed that the toilet paper did not break. 674 00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:51,000 Freedom! 675 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:54,000 At least while he was making his way down. 676 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:57,000 I'm free. I can't walk, but I'm free. 677 00:42:57,000 --> 00:43:00,000 Yeah, it broke, but it didn't break during the test. 678 00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:04,000 And so Tari gives toilet paper his seal of approval. 679 00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:10,000 I am totally convinced that toilet paper used as a rope is a plausible way to escape from prison. 680 00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:14,000 You saw it. It didn't break. It stretched a lot, but it didn't break. 681 00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:16,000 It was incredible. Toilet paper. 682 00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:18,000 It worked!
