1
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,000
Give me that.

2
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:13,000
Yeah, but too.

3
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,000
I didn't even think that was possible.

4
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:46,000
Why is he here?

5
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,000
I don't know, but I would just get on with it.

6
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:54,000
So, I could be mistaken, but I'm getting the sense that we're doing something with guns?

7
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:55,000
You are totally right.

8
00:01:55,000 --> 00:02:02,000
Specifically shooters with seemingly supernatural abilities with guns.

9
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:11,000
Later on, we've got a story about a guy who fires bullets that he holds in his hand while he holds his hand in a fire.

10
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,000
So, the bullets are like between his fingers?

11
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:20,000
Exactly, but first up, we have a sort of a classic movie hitman trope in which hitman is tracking his guy.

12
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:24,000
His guy goes behind the wall, but it turns out to be no barrier for the hitman.

13
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:28,000
He knows where he is, tracks him, shoots through the wall, and right through his prep.

14
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:33,000
So, we want to find out whether or not a bullet would go through a wall easily,

15
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:37,000
and whether you can actually track somebody behind the wall without seeing them.

16
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:43,000
Exactly. I've been wanting to do this story for so long, it is going to be awesome.

17
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:55,000
Now, when we're talking about shooting through walls, the word wall could mean many, many different things

18
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:58,000
based on when and where the building you're in was actually constructed.

19
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,000
Ah, too big. Too big.

20
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:05,000
The walls could be made of different materials and they could have lots of different things inside them.

21
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:06,000
It started to look like something.

22
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,000
We want a broad representation of walls to shoot at.

23
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:13,000
So, I've assembled all the materials walls have been built out of over the last hundred years.

24
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,000
The house I grew up in was all lath and plaster.

25
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,000
Ah, the old crafts.

26
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:22,000
As well as a lot of the things, electrical boxes, insulation.

27
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:23,000
I hate fiberglass insulation.

28
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:27,000
Wiring and plumbing that you'd find inside those walls.

29
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:31,000
Hey, that's awesome. It fits. When does that ever happen?

30
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:38,000
With this, we should be able to make the targets that we need to find out just how bulletproof or not walls actually might be.

31
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,000
Almost ready for shooting.

32
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:51,000
Now it's ready for shooting and so am I. Decided to come in costume as the man in black, the man of mystery, the man you don't want to see at your doorstep.

33
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,000
Normally when we're using guns, we come to a firing range.

34
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:05,000
But because we're going to be firing into walls, these bullets may behave well unpredictably.

35
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:06,000
I think it looks pretty good.

36
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:13,000
So instead of using the normal targeting range, we're going to go off to one end where we can safely control what happens.

37
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:20,000
It's time to introduce you to the ammunition and pistol we'll be using today for the experiment.

38
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,000
The bullets we'll be firing are standard high velocity hollow point rounds.

39
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:30,000
They'll be fired from a standard double action nine millimeter pistol used by the military and law enforcement of the world over.

40
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:34,000
And also a staple of action movie heroes. Here we go.

41
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:53,000
And you know that's true because you heard it from the hit man. Did I pull that off?

42
00:04:53,000 --> 00:05:09,000
The panel will be shooting into is composed of the kinds of things that you would find in a standard wall from sheet rock to a solid wood stud sheet metal stud sections with plumbing fixtures and lastly an electrical box.

43
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:13,000
Now we'll be firing bullets out of this nine millimeter pistol into those sections.

44
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,000
I guess that I'll do it.

45
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:20,000
Of course for safety, we'll be triggering this from behind the blast shields.

46
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:26,000
Now we don't just want to shoot at walls. We also want to witness what happens when the bullet and the wall meet.

47
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:31,000
Thus we've set our high speed camera perched carefully above looking down through the inside of the wall.

48
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:36,000
We've also chosen an extremely high frame rate of 17,000 frames per second.

49
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,000
That's one of the highest frame rates we've ever used on the show.

50
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:42,000
All will be known by this ring.

51
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,000
And with a steel backstop.

52
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,000
It makes a cool noise when a bullet hits it.

53
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:50,000
Their six and one interior wall mockup is ready to go.

54
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:54,000
Will any of them halt a Hollywood hit man?

55
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,000
First up a blast from the past.

56
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,000
Lath and plaster.

57
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:03,000
I actually think that Lath and plaster is going to do pretty good in slowing the forward progress of the bullet.

58
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:04,000
Range is hot.

59
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,000
Whether it stops completely, I can't say.

60
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:07,000
Count it down.

61
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,000
But I do think it's going to provide a nice barrier.

62
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:14,000
Okay, nine millimeter into Lath and plaster.

63
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:18,000
Three, two, one.

64
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:29,000
Well, it did the classic small entry wound, larger exit wound.

65
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:31,000
But it looks like it came out pretty straight.

66
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:38,000
With a bullet's trajectory unaffected and the velocity hardly hindered,

67
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:44,000
the oldie wall would have provided no protection for our hit man's hidden target.

68
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:47,000
And that sounds good for the myth.

69
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,000
Made a resounding clang when it hit this backstop.

70
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:54,000
I guess that means that he would probably get penetrated by that bullet.

71
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:55,000
Up next.

72
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,000
All right, let's slide this puppy down.

73
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:01,000
Will this more modern eco-friendly fortification fare any better?

74
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,000
This test is against two layers of drywall.

75
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:05,000
Range is hot.

76
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:10,000
With about three and a half inches of fiberglass insulation between them.

77
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:11,000
Nice.

78
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:16,000
Right through the square, heard the ding of the steel, couldn't have gone better.

79
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,000
More good news for the myth.

80
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:27,000
Two targets taken down and no sign the bullet has been significantly slowed or in any way altered.

81
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,000
I love that sound.

82
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:39,000
A result replicated when the sheet metal and wooden studs are also found to be duds.

83
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,000
But now it gets interesting.

84
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:45,000
Next up is the first time our bullets going to encounter an actual object inside the wall.

85
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,000
And that is copper plumbing.

86
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,000
We're going to hit it right there.

87
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,000
And this is the reason for all of our safety shields.

88
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:55,000
The bullet could spatter in a lot of different directions when it hits this.

89
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:59,000
Firing in three, two, one.

90
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:08,000
Oh, that looks like a perfect hit.

91
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,000
A perfect hit through and through.

92
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:14,000
With the bullets trajectory and speed only marginally affected,

93
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:19,000
the myth that a hit man can hit his hidden target is still looking good.

94
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,000
But what about the toughest target yet?

95
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,000
A steel junction box.

96
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:26,000
Oh!

97
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,000
Oh, yes!

98
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,000
Oh, you're going to love this.

99
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:43,000
The whole story of the bullets stoppage is apparent in this one shot, which we will cut to right.

100
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:53,000
It took a solid piece of steel in exactly the right place to halt the bullets' momentum and disperse its kinetic energy.

101
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:57,000
But clearly, this is the exception and not the rule.

102
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,000
The myth is on track.

103
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:04,000
I have to say I'm pretty surprised at the results that only one of our in-wall obstacles, the electrical box,

104
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:08,000
actually stopped the bullet called the rest made it through.

105
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:13,000
Now what that means for the myth is walls are okay to shoot through if you're a hit man.

106
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:17,000
From my vantage point, it's looking pretty good for the myth.

107
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:26,000
And so it's back to the show where our hard to please professional is waiting for an update.

108
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:28,000
So is that it?

109
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:32,000
No, no, no. We actually have a few more tests to do before we finally call shooting through walls,

110
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,000
but we're now jumping to the second story in this episode.

111
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,000
It's from a movie called Shoot'em Up.

112
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,000
I am dead on about who you are, right?

113
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,000
Say that again.

114
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,000
I said, I am dead.

115
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:45,000
Stop.

116
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,000
That part of it you got right.

117
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:52,000
At the end of the movie, our hero is cornered. It looks like he is dead. He doesn't even have a gun.

118
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:57,000
But what the bad guy doesn't know is that the hero has a handful of bullets shoved between his fingers.

119
00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:00,000
He thrusts his hand into the fire and two seconds later,

120
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:05,000
no more bad guys.

121
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,000
What was that?

122
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,000
We were reenacting the movie.

123
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,000
Oh, wait.

124
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,000
What we want to find out is one, can bullets go off that fast in a fire?

125
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,000
Two, if they can, could you aim them?

126
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,000
And three, are they remotely lethal?

127
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:28,000
So which one of you geniuses is going to stick his hand in the fire?

128
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:32,000
Well, we haven't thought that far ahead yet.

129
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,000
Well, whatever. I've got a plane to catch.

130
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:39,000
Shall we start testing?

131
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,000
Sure.

132
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:48,000
For that, Adam and Jamie hit their all-time favorite location to cause a commotion.

133
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,000
Lots of goats.

134
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:53,000
They don't seem to mind the fact that my jacket is made out of them.

135
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:59,000
To set off this myth, the first item on the menu is a controlled fire.

136
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:04,000
Even a simple fire can be fraught with difficulties and dangers that are unforeseen.

137
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:09,000
That's why one, we've come out here to the Alameda County Sheriff's Bomb Range to set this fire.

138
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:16,000
Two, we've put it in a barbecue and three, Jamie and I are wearing all the proper safety equipment to make sure nothing gets out of control.

139
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:21,000
Safety is always of the first priority to us. We don't like to let anything get out of control.

140
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,000
All right, that's more like it. That's a nice little fire.

141
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:30,000
After the flames have died down, it's time to get cooking, and they're starting out hands-free.

142
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,000
But they're also playing it safe.

143
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:36,000
The single round being baked has had the projectile removed.

144
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:43,000
The empty case and primer will react to the heat, but no one's in danger of being shot yet.

145
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:46,000
Question is, will the ignition match the movie?

146
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:51,000
Now there are three things that we will be testing in this fire test with the bullet shell casings.

147
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:52,000
You ready to do this?

148
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:53,000
Yeah.

149
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,000
One is, will the shell casing go off in the fire?

150
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:59,000
Two, will it go off exactly where our hero is holding his hand in the film clip?

151
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:03,000
He holds his hand just about three inches above the logs, right in there.

152
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:06,000
And three, will it go off in two seconds?

153
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:07,000
Okay.

154
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:12,000
Shell casing test in three, two, one.

155
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,000
That's longer than two seconds.

156
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:20,000
Five.

157
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:26,000
We know that the chemical in the bullet primer ignites at about 300 degrees or above.

158
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:27,000
Fifteen.

159
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,000
That's just where he was holding his hand.

160
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:37,000
But the thing is, it's surrounded by metal, and that metal is insulating it from the 1500 degree plus heat in the fire.

161
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:40,000
Twenty.

162
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,000
Geez, I'm crow.

163
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:44,000
Twenty-five.

164
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,000
It's right in the fire.

165
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:52,000
Now eventually the metal does heat up, and it gets that primer to its 300 degree plus.

166
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:53,000
There it goes.

167
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:54,000
And it goes off.

168
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:57,000
Forty-three seconds.

169
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:58,000
Forty-three seconds.

170
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:01,000
That's a lot.

171
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:05,000
It did go off, but it took its sweet time.

172
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:08,000
Time our Hollywood hero would not have had.

173
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:11,000
But Adam and Jamie aren't giving up.

174
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:15,000
Up next, it's go big, but not at home.

175
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,000
The movie, shoot them up.

176
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:23,000
Looks like it's being shot down.

177
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:29,000
Well, the results of our movie parameter test are in, and the two-second time is totally out.

178
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,000
Forty-three seconds.

179
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:35,000
The fire gets a lot hotter inside among the hot air.

180
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:42,000
I think we should do another test to find out if there's any place in this fire where we can get the bullet to go off in two seconds, and frankly, I predict we totally will.

181
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:45,000
So for test two, Jamie stokes the fire.

182
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:48,000
Mommy, I don't like barbecues at Jamie's house.

183
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:52,000
Because this time they're baking the bullet deep among the coals.

184
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:55,000
A temperature differential for the fire.

185
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,000
And the fire is going to be a little bit more intense.

186
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,000
But it's going to be a little bit more intense.

187
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,000
We're baking the bullet deep among the coals.

188
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:08,000
A temperature differential from test one of 800 degrees.

189
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:09,000
Alright, sir, are you ready?

190
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:10,000
I'm ready.

191
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:11,000
I'm going all the way in this time.

192
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:13,000
Looking for the hot spot.

193
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,000
Looking for something close to two seconds.

194
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:19,000
Three, two, one.

195
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:30,000
Two, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.

196
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:33,000
Those didn't sound like regular seconds.

197
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,000
What kind of seconds were you counting there?

198
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:40,000
Two, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.

199
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:42,000
What kind of seconds are those?

200
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,000
Who counts like that?

201
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,000
What was the time?

202
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,000
Ten seconds.

203
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:56,000
I think we've definitively proven that there's no way a bullet is going to go off in that fire in two seconds flat.

204
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:57,000
Yeah.

205
00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:01,000
It will go off, but not in two seconds.

206
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:07,000
Even exposed to the hottest heart of the fire, at temperatures no human hand could survive,

207
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:13,000
the primer did not reach its flash point in anything like the time it took in the movie.

208
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:16,000
I think we could use a hand on this story.

209
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:22,000
But although one facet of this film fable is an obvious fiction, the guys aren't done yet.

210
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:27,000
Well, it's true that the timing of the hand in fire is busted.

211
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:32,000
Nevertheless, I've got to find out whether bullets fired in that manner are both accurate and lethal.

212
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:36,000
So to do that, I need a hand that I can heat up safely.

213
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:41,000
Yep. Dr. Franken-Honneman is making a heat-resistant human hand.

214
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:46,000
Well, we've got a good start with the grinder, but from here on in, it's mostly going to be blacksmithing.

215
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:59,000
One of the joys of doing this kind of work is first, there was nothing, and then there was something.

216
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:07,000
That something being an adjustable articulated hand able to realistically grip bullets between each finger,

217
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:12,000
detailed and disturbing work the doctor clearly enjoys.

218
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:21,000
I've left a texture that is not unlike the wrinkles in my finger, and where it kind of smooths out over the knuckle.

219
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:31,000
I've done that with a blob of weld. It's all very fast and crude, but it gives it a strangely organic look for it being all metal.

220
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:42,000
For added accuracy, it fits like a, you know what, a leather glove that grips like skin is heat molded onto the metal skeleton.

221
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:48,000
And to gauge human-like strength, position number one between the thumb and index finger.

222
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:52,000
Adam sets a calibration benchmark with his own grip.

223
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:59,000
8.1 pounds. This force cage here holds what's called a peak value. That is the most amount of weight that it took since you last pressed zero.

224
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:08,000
Now, I will put the bullet on this string on the force cage and hold it between two fingers as hard as I can until it lets go.

225
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:14,000
Ow, ow. And then I read that value, enter it into this chart.

226
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:21,000
With the data handed over, Jamie mechanically matches Adam's grip strength to his metal digits.

227
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:27,000
A couple of minor adjustments, and I think we should be all set.

228
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:30,000
And this myth is all set to go off.

229
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:31,000
It's perfect.

230
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:39,000
But first, there's some unfinished business for a wall shooting hitman.

231
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:50,000
Now that we've determined exactly how porous walls are and that bullets will most likely make it through them, it's time to deal with what's on the other side.

232
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:57,000
So, you are the good guy, the camera, you're people watching TV, and you're looking at a wall and there's a bad guy behind.

233
00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:03,000
Whereas, oh, there he is. Now that bad guy is going to move behind the wall and you've got to shoot him. How are you going to do that?

234
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:12,000
We figured there's two methods that you could use. One is, you could watch him run behind and make an assumption that he's going to maintain his speed, bang, and try and shoot him.

235
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:22,000
Or, you could listen for the sound of his footsteps and use your natural powers of triangulation to make an assumption about where he is and shoot there.

236
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:29,000
I'm not sure if either one of those is going to work, but in either case it's going to require a rig with a motorized dude on it.

237
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:36,000
What's the dude? What are you doing, dude? He's not a very handsome dude. Something kind of like this.

238
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:47,000
So, bullets can penetrate an interior wall, but is hitting your target as easy as Hollywood would have us believe.

239
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,000
That is so weird.

240
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:54,000
To find out, the team is testing two mythical methods.

241
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,000
First up, target tracking.

242
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:06,000
That's how this test is going to work. Our target, that's me, will always start every test by moving from a visible position to an obscured position.

243
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:13,000
The operator will be able to control the position of the target with this joystick and be able to see what he's doing through this monitor.

244
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:23,000
The shooter must use trajectory tracking and their intuition to surmise where the target might be behind the wall and attempt to shoot them through the wall.

245
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:30,000
There are two restrictions of this test. One is, the shooter can't start shooting until the target is past that yellow and black line.

246
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:35,000
All the action happens on that side. And, only one bullet at a time.

247
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:43,000
This first test is going to be pretty basic. I'm going to be moving the target at what amounts to walking speed continuously.

248
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,000
Jamie, you ready to start this?

249
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:47,000
I am.

250
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:57,000
Gun is loaded. Safety is off. Range is hot.

251
00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,000
Alright, count me down, sir.

252
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:04,000
Three, two, one.

253
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:21,000
Stop. Let's see if I hit him. I'm going to go inspect.

254
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:27,000
Well, it turns out with velocity tracking of an obscured target.

255
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:37,000
A perfect hit. I'm actually pretty good. I got myself in the face on the first try. A perfect hit.

256
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:41,000
But maybe Adam got lucky. It's Jamie's turn.

257
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:48,000
Okay. Range is hot.

258
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:54,000
Time to double down on the data.

259
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,000
Let's go see if you hit me.

260
00:20:56,000 --> 00:21:03,000
With nothing to go on but the projected trajectory of the target, how did Hanuman the hitman fare?

261
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:04,000
Yeah.

262
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:09,000
Nice. Right there. Took out my left lung.

263
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:15,000
Adam and I both got what might have been kill shots on our first go, but that was following a consistent movement.

264
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:19,000
So, that obviously is the best case scenario.

265
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,000
Look at that.

266
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:23,000
Nice little boo boo.

267
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:29,000
The reality is going to be more like somebody is starting and stopping. Who knows what they're doing back there.

268
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:34,000
And the only thing he might have to go on is sound.

269
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:37,000
So, that's what we're going to try next.

270
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:58,000
Give me that.

271
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:10,000
The ultimate Hollywood anti-hero. With a seemingly supernatural ability, he always gets his mark.

272
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:13,000
Or does he?

273
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:16,000
Sounds like it's time for test two.

274
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:21,000
This test is going to be pretty much like the last one except that the target is going to be moving all over the place.

275
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:25,000
And the only thing that the shooter will have to go by is the sound of footsteps.

276
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:29,000
Can I hear a test of that?

277
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:43,000
With the fake footstep audio coming from a speaker attached to the target.

278
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,000
I can kind of hear it go.

279
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,000
The setup is complete.

280
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:53,000
I thought this would be pretty cool in practice. It's far cooler.

281
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:56,000
What do you think? One shot this time? Or how about three shots?

282
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,000
Yeah, let's have the any.

283
00:22:58,000 --> 00:22:59,000
Alright, so are you ready?

284
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:00,000
I'm ready.

285
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:06,000
You're wondering how we're going to do a test about hearing for footsteps when we're hearing protection to protect ourselves from the sound of the gun going off.

286
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,000
Excellent. Sounds loud and clear.

287
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,000
The sound of the sound is really cool.

288
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,000
The sound of the sound is really cool.

289
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,000
The sound of the sound is really cool.

290
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:16,000
The sound of the sound is really cool.

291
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,000
The sound of the sound is really cool.

292
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,000
The sound of the sound is really cool.

293
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:22,000
The sound of the sound is really cool.

294
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,000
The sound of the sound is really cool.

295
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,000
The sound of the sound is really cool.

296
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:28,000
The sound of the sound is really cool.

297
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,000
The sound of the sound is really cool.

298
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,000
The sound of the sound is really cool.

299
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,000
The sound of the sound is really cool.

300
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:39,000
I must admit, I'm a little surprised that both Jamie and I got successful kill shots on the first test.

301
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:40,000
Ha!

302
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:41,000
Ha ha ha ha!

303
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,000
A perfect hit!

304
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:51,000
But on the second one, I personally think it's going to be a lot harder to triangulate the sound of footsteps behind a barrier.

305
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:52,000
Count me in, sir.

306
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:55,000
I'm giving myself a new 20% chance of actually hitting this thing.

307
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,000
Three, two, one.

308
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:14,000
Let's see if I hit him.

309
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:23,000
Adam acoustically and intuitively tuned in to his target's tread and took him out.

310
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,000
Oh, looks like you got him.

311
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:26,000
No way.

312
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:27,000
Oh, no, I'm sorry.

313
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:28,000
No, or not.

314
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:29,000
No, that was there before.

315
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:30,000
That was from this, yes.

316
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:31,000
What's that?

317
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:32,000
Oh!

318
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:33,000
Adam missed.

319
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:34,000
Oh, savage.

320
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:39,000
And you'll notice that he clustered three of his shots in one small area.

321
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:41,000
I'm not so sure that's the best approach.

322
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:45,000
If I were doing this, which I'm about to, I'm ready.

323
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:56,000
I think I'd be inclined to do a sweep across an area to try and bracket in the sound because we can hear the sounds, but pinpointing it, not so much.

324
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:14,000
Despite the benefit of being able to adapt his tactics, Jamie missed as well.

325
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:27,000
So while you can easily shoot through a wall, the real world detail of the prey's unpredictable position makes hitting a moving target tough, and this myth is on the ropes.

326
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:28,000
So what do you think?

327
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,000
Have we answered the question of shooting people on the other side of the walls?

328
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:32,000
How easy it is?

329
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:38,000
Mechanical moving targets are all well and good, but I don't think there's any substitute for the real thing.

330
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,000
I think we ought to shoot at each other.

331
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,000
Maybe...

332
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:47,000
Not with real guns, right?

333
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,000
Well, okay.

334
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:50,000
Paintball guns.

335
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:51,000
Paintball guns.

336
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:53,000
Okay, I think we can do that test.

337
00:25:53,000 --> 00:26:01,000
A new test, a new day, and a new location for a spot of hitman elimination.

338
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:32,000
Morning.

339
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:33,000
Morning.

340
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:34,000
Shall we get to work?

341
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:35,000
Yeah, let's do it.

342
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:48,000
We have brought you to an abandoned machine shop in Mare Island, California to put all the disparate elements of this story back together for a nice, violent, fun-filled, family-friendly finale.

343
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:56,000
So it's time we ramp things up and use live human targets that are moving, namely Adam and I.

344
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:57,000
That's right.

345
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,000
It's you and me, Heinemann.

346
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:04,000
Suit up.

347
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:05,000
Am I out?

348
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:06,000
Uh-uh.

349
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:10,000
Aw, crap.

350
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:13,000
For this gunfight head-to-head.

351
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:14,000
So freaking cool.

352
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:19,000
Adam and Jamie are putting the human back into the experimental equation.

353
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:22,000
This last test is a classic cat and mouse.

354
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,000
We're building a hitman fantasy camp.

355
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:31,000
Jamie and I are going to stalk each other through a labyrinth, created of walls, making hallways, rooms, doorways, the whole kitten cabuto.

356
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:32,000
Excuse me.

357
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:39,000
We must try and win this stalking contest by shooting each other through one or more of the walls of our labyrinth.

358
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:40,000
Our walls are made of paper.

359
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:43,000
Our weapons, paintball guns.

360
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:46,000
Ow!

361
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,000
With help from their origami army.

362
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:50,000
Go ahead, Willie. Pivot around.

363
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:53,000
And an artistic finishing touch or two.

364
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:54,000
Lovely.

365
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:59,000
The eight room Assassin's Arena is ready for the showdown.

366
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:02,000
But it won't be a free-for-all.

367
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:03,000
These are the rules.

368
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:05,000
First, there's no time limit.

369
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:08,000
The winner is the first one to shoot the other through a wall.

370
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:12,000
We each only have one eight-round clip, so every shot counts.

371
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:17,000
Finally, during the test, we are not allowed to travel beyond the boundaries of the experimental space.

372
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:24,000
And with the rules laid down, Adam and Jamie are all set for a hitman hunt.

373
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:37,000
To test Hollywood's idea of a handheld shoot-em-up.

374
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:38,000
Oh!

375
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:39,000
Oh!

376
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,000
The mythbusters need bullets.

377
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:47,000
A helping hand.

378
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:48,000
It's perfect.

379
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:51,000
And dry, experimental conditions.

380
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:58,000
It doesn't rain all week, and then when we go out to shoot, it's raining.

381
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:06,000
So let me introduce you to a little bit of how mythbusters conduct a shoot in the pouring rain.

382
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:12,000
And we've actually set up 400 square feet of tent city here in the middle of our muddy field.

383
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:14,000
Right there is our high-speed camera op.

384
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:17,000
That's an expensive laptop and a $100,000 high-speed camera.

385
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,000
The important cables are running up through the rafters.

386
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:22,000
There is where Jamie and I will be standing behind the blast chamber shield.

387
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,000
That's our experimental setup.

388
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:27,000
Hopefully, it's dry enough to actually get this experiment off.

389
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:33,000
So if you hold bullets in a fire, they're going to take a lot longer than two seconds to go off.

390
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:35,000
Ten seconds.

391
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:36,000
Ten seconds.

392
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:40,000
But at this point, we haven't established what exactly they'll do when they do go off.

393
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:45,000
And in the movie, the bullets are shown to be lethal, so that's what we've got to test now.

394
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:48,000
Mythbusters during the monsoon season.

395
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:55,000
Despite the deluge, the team has a handle on the situation and is all set to fire up.

396
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:59,000
For this test, we've got a single bullet mounted on the hand right here,

397
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:03,000
and I'm going to have a single flame coming out of this tiny copper tube.

398
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:07,000
Let's try it quickly.

399
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:12,000
When I pull on a cord, the flame will swing in and we'll set off the bullet.

400
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:15,000
That's it. You're right on the bullet. You're right on the bullet.

401
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,000
This time, the round is live.

402
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,000
Come on, bullet. Come on, bullet.

403
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:24,000
With primer, powder, and projectile intact.

404
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:25,000
Ah, it just blew out.

405
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,000
This program is rated thrust.

406
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:28,000
Frustrating.

407
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:33,000
In theory, they'll use the high-speed camera to capture the bullet's speed.

408
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:34,000
You're good.

409
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,000
Still lit. Still lit.

410
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:40,000
Oh, it just blew out.

411
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:43,000
In practice, that's not happening.

412
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:44,000
This goes to show.

413
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:47,000
Best laid plans of mice and men are often screwed up by the rain.

414
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:51,000
So it turns out our tiny little flame wasn't concentrated enough.

415
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:56,000
The torch head we're going to use this time is called a pencil torch,

416
00:30:56,000 --> 00:31:01,000
and that means that it literally has a point on it that's similar to a pencil point.

417
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:02,000
Jamie, you're good to light it.

418
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:06,000
And I'm going to aim that right at the cap,

419
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:09,000
and I think that'll get us where we need to go.

420
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:10,000
There it is.

421
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:17,000
Hey!

422
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,000
That worked a lot better.

423
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:25,000
That was like within 10 seconds. That's what I wanted.

424
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:26,000
Excellent.

425
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:29,000
At last, there's fire in the hole.

426
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,000
But what does the data say?

427
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:34,000
Flame placement looks perfect.

428
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:43,000
Let me see if I can't get a rough idea of speed here.

429
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:49,000
The bullet's moving at 82 miles per hour.

430
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:50,000
Yeah.

431
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:53,000
Question is, why is it going so slow?

432
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:58,000
When you pull the trigger of a loaded gun, the bullet inside basically explodes.

433
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:02,000
The resulting shock wave travels down the barrel and propels the bullet out.

434
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:06,000
But without the gun to enclose and back up the cartridge,

435
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:10,000
there's nothing to prevent it from simply expanding and rocketing backwards

436
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:14,000
instead of pushing the bullet forwards, hence the low speeds of the bullet.

437
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:18,000
With no barrel to contain the energy, it disperses,

438
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:22,000
and the bullet comes out at 10% of its usual velocity.

439
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:25,000
I don't think that's going to be lethal, but for due diligence,

440
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:28,000
let's put our dummy in there and see what happens to him.

441
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:29,000
Sure, why not?

442
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:30,000
Okay.

443
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:35,000
Your days are numbered, dude.

444
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:40,000
So, will a handheld bullet accurately hit a target with lethal impact?

445
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:41,000
Okay, coming in.

446
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:43,000
That's it. It's on.

447
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,000
I can hear it going.

448
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,000
Hey, there it went.

449
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:49,000
I don't know if it hit him.

450
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:53,000
The early signs for accuracy are not good.

451
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,000
I don't see any bullet holes.

452
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:58,000
I don't see any bullet holes, nor do I see any bullets.

453
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:01,000
This is a job for the high-speed camera.

454
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:04,000
Bang. Oh, it went way down.

455
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:07,000
Boink!

456
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,000
Is it bounced off?

457
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,000
Actually, it looks like it's still there.

458
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:17,000
This is right about where it looks like it hits, right?

459
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:21,000
Well, I've seen any reason why I shouldn't excavate.

460
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:23,000
I don't see any reason why you shouldn't excavate.

461
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,000
High-speed says bullet entered the dude.

462
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:27,000
We should cut him open and find a bullet. Let's see.

463
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,000
Okay. Oh, there it is.

464
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:32,000
Whoa, no way!

465
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,000
Embedded in his chest.

466
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:37,000
Amazing!

467
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:41,000
It's a satisfying and surprising result,

468
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,000
but with such shallow penetration,

469
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:46,000
it wouldn't have been lethal, merely painful.

470
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:50,000
If only our hero could hold his burning, fleshy hand in a fire

471
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:54,000
until it melted and kept that pressure on,

472
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:57,000
well, he might have just injured the villain.

473
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:00,000
That is awesome.

474
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:03,000
All right, let's count down the components of this story.

475
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:05,000
Bullets going off in a fire in two seconds or less?

476
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:06,000
Busted.

477
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:10,000
Okay. What about the lethality or danger of those bullets after that?

478
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:13,000
Well, that is where it starts to get a little interesting,

479
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:15,000
but, no, it's still busted.

480
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:17,000
It's still totally busted.

481
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:24,000
That's one myth done and busted.

482
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:29,000
But still to come, a head-to-head hitman showdown.

483
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:37,000
Deep in an underground bunker,

484
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:43,000
Jamie and Adam captured an exquisite world exclusive.

485
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:46,000
Oh, no way!

486
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:49,000
Wow!

487
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:52,000
We've just taken a shot with a high-speed camera called the Phantom of a bullet

488
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:57,000
exiting a gun at 73,000 frames per second.

489
00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:59,000
73,000.

490
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,000
I seriously had no idea it would be that lovely.

491
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,000
Oh, I gotta go back and watch it again.

492
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:08,000
The artifacts that you start to be able to see,

493
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:13,000
mushroom clouds and little rivulets of gases and fire forming on flame fronts

494
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,000
of pressure waves and stuff,

495
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:18,000
and not sure many people in the world have ever even looked at.

496
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:20,000
It's just really cool.

497
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:22,000
Yep, it's cool.

498
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:24,000
It's showtime.

499
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:34,000
One by one, our would-be hitman are guided silently to separate random locations in the arena.

500
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:55,000
Catahal-Hollywood Hitman

501
00:35:55,000 --> 00:36:00,000
Gentlemen, really locate and liquidate a wall hidden target

502
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:01,000
Are you ready?

503
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:05,000
with supernatural-like acoustic ability and intuition.

504
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:09,000
In three, two, one, go.

505
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:13,000
It's a stalk to the death to find out.

506
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,000
q

507
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:24,720
Here it comes.

508
00:36:24,720 --> 00:36:26,580
Okay.

509
00:36:26,580 --> 00:36:27,120
Go!

510
00:36:37,620 --> 00:36:40,220
Oh, that was great.

511
00:36:40,220 --> 00:36:44,560
You were like, look, look at both Richard and me looking

512
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:45,120
at them.

513
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:47,440
They don't even look at me, does he?

514
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:48,200
No.

515
00:36:48,700 --> 00:36:50,240
You look so handsome.

516
00:36:50,240 --> 00:36:51,240
He just...

517
00:36:51,240 --> 00:36:52,520
He's like like.

518
00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:53,800
It's like so very handsome.

519
00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:56,800
I've been looking forward to this test for a while,

520
00:36:56,800 --> 00:37:00,800
but that was far more scary and hair-raising and exciting

521
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:02,800
than I ever imagined it would be.

522
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:04,800
That's just stunning.

523
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:06,800
You might recall from our earlier testing,

524
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:11,800
to track somebody moving behind a wall was fairly easy to do,

525
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:13,800
as long as you can anticipate their movement.

526
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:16,800
Now, in this first game, I remembered that.

527
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:21,800
I peeked out the doorway just in time to see him move behind a wall.

528
00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:25,800
And so I was able to actually track his movement,

529
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:27,800
fire through the wall, and I hit him.

530
00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:29,800
That was beautiful.

531
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:31,800
It worked, just like we learned.

532
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:35,800
So the combination of a preliminary visual cue,

533
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:40,800
audio location, and intuition does make it possible to pop your opponent.

534
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:44,800
Good news for the myth, but Adam's not giving up yet.

535
00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:46,800
Nicely done.

536
00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:48,800
Best out of three?

537
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:50,800
Okay.

538
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,800
This is too much fun to give up after one try.

539
00:37:57,800 --> 00:37:58,800
Love this game.

540
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:03,800
That's the cue for a fun and fear-filled test, too.

541
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:09,800
Looking down on this test from above, I'm struck by a couple things.

542
00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:14,800
One, how lovely it is with all the colors and all of the labyrinth.

543
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:16,800
Go.

544
00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:23,800
But perhaps the most diabolically scary part of this test to me was the quiet.

545
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:29,800
I open my eyes.

546
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:31,800
I don't see Jamie.

547
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:35,800
I hear little creaks, but that doesn't necessarily help

548
00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:38,800
because you're waiting somebody else out.

549
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:40,800
You know that they want to kill you,

550
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:42,800
and even though they're not going to kill you,

551
00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:44,800
you're waiting somebody else out.

552
00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:47,800
You know that they want to kill you, and even though this is for play,

553
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:51,800
it doesn't make it any less of an adrenaline rush to know that someone's got your number

554
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:54,800
and they're looking for you and you are looking for them.

555
00:38:56,800 --> 00:39:05,800
It is really, really thrilling in a way that few tests that we have done on this show really deliver.

556
00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:17,800
I'm hit. I'm hit. I'm hit in the leg.

557
00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:19,800
This whole test came together quite beautifully.

558
00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:24,800
That was scary as hell.

559
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:30,800
Because in our earlier mechanical testing, we found only one technique that was effective.

560
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:34,800
You got me right in the knee. That is a totally incapacitating hit.

561
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:36,800
Well, you know, that's my personal style.

562
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:40,800
You know, it sends a message, but here, with real human subjects,

563
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:44,800
I found I had to put all of those techniques together.

564
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:48,800
I used a little bit of sound to roughly locate where they were at.

565
00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:54,800
Once I did get any kind of hint of how they were moving, I tracked them, and then I sprayed.

566
00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:58,800
And putting all of those techniques together allowed me to win.

567
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:02,800
You've nailed it. I'm dead two out of two.

568
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:06,800
I'd say you are the absolute winner, sir.

569
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:07,800
Congratulations.

570
00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:08,800
Thank you.

571
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:10,800
That was an awesome contest.

572
00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:12,800
Well, it would seem that, just like the rest of the world,

573
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:18,800
it is very difficult for me to get a bead on James Franklin Heinemann.

574
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,800
He seems to be a fan of shooting people in the joints.

575
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:23,800
Maybe that's from when he used to be a lone shark. I don't know.

576
00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:25,800
But I couldn't hit him once.

577
00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:26,800
How do you want to call it?

578
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:30,800
I got to say, I'm surprised, but I think the hitmen are onto something.

579
00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:34,800
Shooting through walls has far more efficacy than I began this myth believing.

580
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:37,800
Yeah, I agree. Interior walls don't offer much protection, do they?

581
00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:40,800
No, they're far more porous than anyone thought. Let's get out of here.

582
00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:41,800
You coming?

583
00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:42,800
Sure.

584
00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:44,800
Oh, yeah.

585
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:53,800
Back across town, it's time to settle accounts.

586
00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:05,800
You're going?

587
00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:10,800
Shooting through walls confirmed.

588
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:11,800
Shoot him up?

589
00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:13,800
Bust it.

590
00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:16,800
See you on the next bounce, boys.

591
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:22,800
I don't trust that guy.

592
00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:23,800
Neither do I. Let's get inside.
