He got a degree in Russian and then proceeded to open a SCUBA shop in the Carribean (near Cuba). After he was done with that he some how ended up as an explosives/SFX expert in Hollywood.

They're all making GBS threads themselves over a candle being blown out when it's a foot away from a speaker blowing at loud volume that's obviously disturbing the nearby air. They need to put a wind screen between the flame and speaker and see if it blows out. Well sound IS pressure waves and with a screen that would block the "sound".

The CIA already has the face mask disguise. The guy who created it even wrote a book about it: https://www.cia.gov/library/center-for-the-study-of-intelligence/csi-publications/csi-studies/studies/vol46no1/article09.html It's also the same CIA guy who masterminded the rescue of the Americans from Iran.

I'm watching this new(?) show "First Week In" which takes the concept of a show like Jail and tells it from the inmate's perspective. And I have to say that it is seriously depressing. Certainly some of the people they follow have done really bad things (like the guy who stabbed some woman near to death and got 30 years) but the show is good making them sympathetic. Like the kid who got arrested for stealing gas and having 1 ecstasy pill who couldn't call anyone because he didn't have money on his account for a phone card and had to wait 4 days for the chaplain to call his dad. Also, one of the shooting locations is Maricopa County and while I hate to give them publicity, you can see how much worse their jails are vs. the others.

Not that I expected him to fall... but that was pretty weak.

Yeah, I really can't see this ending any other way then he gets his head in then his team sedates the snake and pulls him out. Or possibly the snake gives up/doesn't even try.

Discovery sure is getting a lot of press about this in any case: http://www.cnn.com/video/data/2.0/video/us/2014/11/06/erin-dnt-moos-man-eaten-by-anaconda.cnn.html

Snake time. Edit: Show intro is already walking back the "eaten" part: "The suit is to test the snake's constriction power. But it might try to eat me, maybe". Zero One fucked around with this message at 03:06 on Dec 8, 2014 |

The Floating Forest looks amazing. And terrifying.

What a cop out... can't find the wild snake, let's just go to the zoo.

Boooo ^The forest part would have made a good hour long "Search for giant snakes" show. The eaten part was stupid.

anotherone posted:Don't forget that CBS is working on a procedural drama based on Adam and Jamie: This just confirms my suspicions that Jamie worked for the CIA. I knew all this stuff already: quote:Hyneman is a special effects expert with a degree in Russian linguistics who has worked as a certified dive master, wilderness survival expert, boat captain, linguist, animal wrangler and chef. But a TV show "based on their lives" that makes them CIA agents? A little on the nose, there.

My favorite moment was the cement mixer explosion. Instant classic and I don't think they ever topped it. Edit: Speak of the devil. Zero One fucked around with this message at 02:53 on Mar 6, 2016 |
