"Mythbusters" is an Australian-American popular science project that aired on the Discovery Channel from 2003 to 2016. In our lives, there are numerous myths, beliefs, rumors, and other tales. Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman took on the challenge of proving or disproving these stories. As special effects experts, they used their skills and experience to experimentally test various myths and urban legends. Filming usually took place near the San Francisco Bay.
