They have one goal: leave no myth untested

Mythbusters is a unique series investigating the bizarre claims of urban legends and modern misconceptions. Melding popular culture with scientific fact, this series doesnt just retell the stories... it puts them to the test! Adam Savage, Jamie Hyneman, Kari Byron, Tory Bellici and Grant Imahara return for a fifth season of Mythbusters. Over the previous series, the Mythbusters team have tested 532 myths, destroyed 60 cars, and detonated more than six tonnes of explosives, and for this series, they are going to keep the records rolling. After over 140 hours of television youd think that there might not be too many more urban legends left to bust, but in fact the opposite has proved to be the case. A strong fan base has helped with hundreds of new ideas and insured that each series is even more varied, unpredictable and exciting than the last.
