determined really pretty definitively 670 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:39,000 that any given poop and any given fan 671 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,000 do not equal universal coverage. 672 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,000 But of course we're not going to leave it there 673 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:46,000 because we want to know what would it take? 674 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,000 And right now we're thinking what it would take 675 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:52,000 is a really, really big fan and a lot more room to work in. 676 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,000 More room to work, you say? 677 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:58,000 The hanger at the abandoned Alameda Naval Base 678 00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:00,000 should probably do it. 679 00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:02,000 Right now this is nothing but a massive 680 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:05,000 90,000 square foot empty room. 681 00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,000 They used to build airplanes here during World War II, 682 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,000 but soon, right where I'm standing, 683 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:12,000 the sh** is going to hit the fan. 684 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:16,000 Yep, it's the perfect location to take this test full scale 685 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:19,000 and to confirm the catastrophic consequences of the myth 686 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:22,000 they'll need to see everyone in the vicinity covered. 687 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:25,000 I wonder how they're going to test that. 688 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:27,000 You may wonder how we're going to test 689 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:30,000 the full spread of the poo in this large scale experiment. 690 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:33,000 Wonder no more for the last two decades 691 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:36,000 I have been slowly growing my own clone army 692 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,000 specifically for scientific testing. 693 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,000 You ready boys? 694 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,000 They're ready. 695 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,000 This right here is our fan. 696 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:47,000 It's a 30 inch diameter, 1100 RPM, 697 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:49,000 1 quarter horsepower cage fan. 698 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:54,000 Next the guys put the poop delivery device into place. 699 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:57,000 A state of the art piece of who's your hardware 700 00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,000 called the Heinemann. 701 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:03,000 That seems ideal. 702 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:06,000 Next Jamie mixes up plenty of poop substitute 703 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:08,000 using the same soft serve formula 704 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:11,000 that gave him the best results in the shop. 705 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,000 And if you thought no one in their right mind 706 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:16,000 would want to stand at the eye of the poop storm 707 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,000 you'd be wrong. 708 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:21,000 You didn't think I'd pass up an opportunity to be part of this experiment did you? 709 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:26,000 You know you look taller in person. 710 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,000 If there's any substance to this idiom 711 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,000 when I'm done there should be blue poo 712 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:33,000 on all of these dummies including Adam. 713 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:37,000 Coming up on Mythbusters would you eat one of these things? 714 00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:39,000 Get in there fella. 715 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:11,000 He's 139 and the temperature of his feet dropped to 81.9 716 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:13,000 and remained that temperature 717 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:16,000 for the rest of the time the spiders were on him. 718 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:18,000 Wow he actually got cold feet. 719 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:21,000 An impressive drop of 15 degrees 720 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:24,000 means the myth is heading in the right direction. 721 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:27,000 But remember, Torey's test was inconclusive 722 00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:30,000 so the guys can't call the result yet. 723 00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:34,000 Which means it's Carrie's turn to step up, 724 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:36,000 bear her soul for science, 725 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:38,000 and face her worst fears. 726 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:41,000 A meal made by Grant and Torey. 727 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:42,000 To cold feet. 728 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:43,000 And warm bugs. 729 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:46,000 Their challenge is to present vegetarian Carrie 730 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:49,000 with a buffet that will cause her paws. 731 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:52,000 A feast of fear to give her cold feet. 732 00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:55,000 Now preparing this feast, I mean if you can call it that 733 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:56,000 has been disgusting. 734 00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:57,000 It smells bad. 735 00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:59,000 I think that's done. 736 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:02,000 It looks bad, it's gooey, it's slimy. 737 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,000 And then to finish it off, 738 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:07,000 healthy coating a slime. 739 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:10,000 I mean I'm about this close to throwing up myself 740 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,000 and I got a strong stomach. 741 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,000 It is the largest snail in American waters. 742 00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:16,000 I cannot imagine what Carrie is going to do 743 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:19,000 when she comes out and sees what she has to eat. 744 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:20,000 Oh it smells so bad. 745 00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:23,000 And seated at her table with her foot on thermal camera 746 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:26,000 and her heart rate monitor on her wrist, 747 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:30,000 her eyes are about to be assaulted along with her nose. 748 00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:35,000 Okay, hey, here's our buffet. 749 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:37,000 We have chicken fingers, which is a delicacy 750 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:40,000 in the American style of China. 751 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:41,000 Avaloni. 752 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:42,000 This is conch au la grant. 753 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:47,000 We have kidney and liver, both uncooked and cooked, 754 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:49,000 flavored with Avaloni slime. 755 00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:50,000 That way you have a choice. 756 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,000 Don't forget the bun gut. 757 00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:55,000 Yeah, that is basically the end of a pig's intestine. 758 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:56,000 Deep fried. 759 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:59,000 Incredibly, in addition to this feast of fear, 760 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:02,000 the guys are throwing in a little live action. 761 00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:06,000 The special supplied by Owen, our providor of phobias. 762 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:08,000 I am sweating. 763 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,000 My palms are wet. 764 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,000 Now in case you're thinking Grant and Tori are being 765 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:16,000 unreasonably cruel, Carrie doesn't have to eat everything. 766 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:17,000 Just an entree in Maine. 767 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:19,000 Choose any two. 768 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:24,000 Well, I can definitely eliminate a few. 769 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:29,000 I'm not going to eat anything that had any cuteness 770 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,000 in its lifetime. 771 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:34,000 The boys know I have a very limited diet. 772 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:37,000 I don't eat mammals. 773 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:41,000 I definitely don't eat things that are slimy. 774 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:47,000 So the bugs, strangely enough, were the best choice for me. 775 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:50,000 They seemed the most sanitary, considering most of the stuff 776 00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:52,000 was prepared in the shop anyway. 777 00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:54,000 Come on, giant hissing cockroach. 778 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:57,000 Just bite the head off and the rest is just like butter. 779 00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:58,000 Yeah. 780 00:36:58,000 --> 00:36:59,000 Like a pate. 781 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,000 You don't want to try the bunga. 782 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:02,000 Back up. 783 00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:03,000 Back up. 784 00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:05,000 It's my whole made recipe. 785 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:08,000 Despite the staff's helpful recommendations, 786 00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:10,000 Carrie makes up her own mind. 787 00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:12,000 I think I'm going to go with small. 788 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:13,000 Okay. 789 00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:15,000 These came out of a beehive, so I'm going to pretend 790 00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:17,000 they taste like a honey. 791 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:21,000 The wax worm, the larva of wax moths, 792 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:24,000 that live as parasites in beehives. 793 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:26,000 What's your heart rate at? 794 00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:28,000 116. 795 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:29,000 Oh my God. 796 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,000 She's at 82.9 degrees. 797 00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:34,000 So far, that's a drop of 13 degrees. 798 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:37,000 And what's unlucky for Carrie is she's yet to get through 799 00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:39,000 her first course. 800 00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:43,000 Oh, she did it. 801 00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:45,000 And with the worm putting up a flight, 802 00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:49,000 Carrie's fight-or-flight response is fully activated. 803 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:52,000 It wiggled in my throat. 804 00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:54,000 Heart rate, 149. 805 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:57,000 Temperature, 79 degrees. 806 00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:59,000 I can feel it in my... 807 00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:01,000 Is it still moving? 808 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:02,000 No. 809 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:06,000 There's no doubt Carrie has cold feet, 810 00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:09,000 but the agreement was two courses. 811 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:13,000 Plus, revenge is a dish best served with live bugs. 812 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,000 I wanted a one thing. 813 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:16,000 Yeah. 814 00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:19,000 Why is it that I am a grown woman and boys are still trying 815 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,000 to make me eat bugs? 816 00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:23,000 Again, working on the principle that gross things 817
