the first real experiment which was the RC plane, it didn't take off. the real airplane experiment was done incorrect. airplane has airspeed not wheel speed. the pilot went by air speed.

@TheEodtch Actually it is a myth. The plane's is still putting out the force that it requires to take off. The wheels are just spinning faster than that. If the treadmill was moving at 1000mph the plane would take off, but the wheels would be spinning at 1000mph + Takeoff speed. The planes engine is getting its thrust from the air, not the ground, so the ground moving in the opposite direction means nothing. The air is still stagnant for the most part.
@TheEodtch The myth is "a plane on a treadmill will remain stationary". Its still a myth. The plane will not remain stationary, meaning it moves forward creating lift allowing it to takeoff. If you would have watched the episode they would have explained it to you, but obviously you didn't and you don't understand the physics at work.
@xSaCrEdKhAoSx I do understand the physics of it but no I did not watch listen to the "myth" close enough. When I was told about it the person said the plane was not aloud to move forward. I did hear it wrong, and yes the plane would move forward and I will watch closer next time before spouting off.
Ok so I just watched a lot of videos of 9/11 and it is classified as either a Myth or Conspiracy. I would like to know if a building (two towers) if hit from an angle, destroy the building with minimal spread, equally on both buildings. I just assumed that from watching videos if a plane did hit the building on a corner side, wouldn't some projectiles fly right through? I'm no die hard fan but I would want them to test this theory somehow.
@AlvinTingyk it will most definitely not work the plane needs to have air resistance so the plane will get pushed up and if the plane isnt moving it will not take off
The propeller the thrusting the air in which is still stationary. This creates forward force. The plane moves forward as normal because the power comes from the propeller, the wheels are just moving twice as fast to compensate for the "treadmill" underneath it
the plane takes off because the engine which powers the propeller pushes the plane forward, and the wheels only drag along. the wheels will move twice as fast to compensate for the treadmill while still being pushed forward by its propeller. so this makes it still go forward allowing it to fly. sound rite? this is wat they pretty much said at the end of the show
Why are people so dumb. "Oh this is impossible bla bla bla bla!!" The Mythbusters just proved it you idiots!! They explain everything and make sure they dont miss a damn thing! Its the same thing with blowing your own sail, its possible! they proved it.

Look! If the plane and treadmill are moving the same speed then the plane would stand stil = NO LIFT. Planes need wind speed to take off not fast moving wheels.
@Roksonixx you make a good point but the propeller does create enough lift by itself. It's only enough to get the plane moving forward which in combination is enough for lift. No take off.
@alejandroc19 no you misunderstand the point, the plane moves forward as normal because the power comes from the propeller, the wheels are just moving twice as fast to compensate for the "treadmill" underneath it, lift is generated because the plane moves forward like normal regardless of what goes on to to it's wheels - watch the episode, it works

@dookiekong007 Then you must suck at metaphysics. Haven't you notices that the wheels move really really fast on a plane before it takes off? Thats because the combined radiation field of gravitons and graviolis pushes the wheels, creating lift. Its science...SCIENCE!!1!!!1!!!!111
please Adam Jame and I am here in Brazil and how many I'm a fan of the program and wanted you fizesem an episode about the following myth: a person swallowed an explosive and she will be buried alive like the pirates did, and the explosive will explode when she is buried and his body will be intact because the sand does retain the pieces. Is this true?
Myth says if you cancel out the forward velocity of a plane with the backward velocity of a treadmill, can it fly? For this myth, if you have wind hitting the front of the plane at 8 m/s, then you can say the plane has a velocity of 8 m/s because the plane is catching the same wind and pressures it would at 8 m/s without the opposing forces. Myth then becomes "can a plane without velocity fly without wind?" No. If the plane flies, it's because velocities were not canceled, like in the video.
Ok people who cant understand why the plane WILL take off: Lets say the plane takes off on a flat normal surface (not the treadmill) and when it takes off, the wheels are spinning 100 miles per hour. Lets say the treadmill is moving at 100 MPH. The plane gets on the treadmill and the propeller will pull the plane forward, but the wheels will have to spin 200 MPH to take off. The only way the airplane WOULD NOT take off, is if the treadmill was programmed to match the speed ofthehweelsoftheplane.
@bcopp8323 The wheels will be spinning at 200 MPH (probably measured in RPMs but whatever), the plane itself will be still going 100 mph to take off. The treadmill just makes the wheels spin faster, the plane WILL take off. I know this and I have never taken a physics class in my life.
@bcopp8323 Let me answer on behalf of much of the population: "Huh?" "But... but..." "Naw, it's goin' backwards on the belt" "I don't get it" "But if the wheels... um... if the wheels...um..." "Naw, yur awl rong" "Huh?"
@bcopp8323 But the 'myth' explicitly states that the plane is moving forward at the same speed the treadmill is moving backwards, i.e. ground speed zero. You're postulating that the plane is driving forwards twice as fast, relative to the treadmill. If the difference in velocity is higher then the plane's minimum takeoff speed, then it will take off. Fair enough, but that's not what this whole utterly ridiculous myth is about.
this is retarded and anyone who thought it would take off is retarded and the fact they had to test whether its true is retarded jesus fucking christ its obvious it wont fly to anyone with half a brain
@arr5612 If you are talking about a typical exercise treadmill, then obviously nothing will happen, but that was never the question. For the purposes of this exercise, there is NO difference between a conveyor belt and a treadmill. Plus, you never said anything about that in your comment. 8-P
@arr5612 Actually you're wrong. A static plane does not take off, true. However a plane does not take speed like a car, the car engine rotates the wheels thus a treadmill will cancel it. HOWEVER!! a plane engine does not activate the wheels, it uses air propelling, the wheels will just spin twice as fast so it will cancel the treadmill and the plane will have the same speed. This is without taking friction into consideration which will reduce the speed by a little amount.
@stefanstalex this whole debate is one big miscommunication, the people who say it wont take off mean an actual treadmil, the thing you excersise on, obviously it wouldnt take off one of those because it would hit the front, but if you mean a huge conveyer belt and normal plane then yes.
@arr5612 Well actually it's not a miss-communication, it's the fact that people have the impression that a plane will remain static on a treadmill just like a car, or a human, or anything that is using wheel propulsion, the plane however does not use that kind of propulsion, it uses air propulsion through it's propeller, so it makes a treadmill do absolutely nothing. A plain will travel at 100 km/hr on a road, add a treadmill that goes 100000 km/hr the other way, the plane will still go100km/hr
@stefanstalex yes, i just mean on an actual treadmil it would just hit the front and crash, its a miscommunication because people like me hear the word treadmil and think of the excersise machine, when people usually are refering to a conveyer belt. Its just people being confused with an actual treadmil and a huge conveyerbelt, it would still try to take off on a treadmil but hit the front supports lol
@arr5612 Lol... i think you're the only one who thought about that :D. Most people say this because they think a conveyor belt will make the plane static- like a car/human... i don't think the myth is about the plane crashing on the bars...
@arr5612 That's the problem of the myth, the fact that most people relate to engine-wheel-ground to gain speed, whereas a plane uses engine-propeller-air, the wheels on the plane is just to reduce friction with the ground.
The only way to do this test is not a treadmill, but a wind tunnel- which is the treadmill equivalent to a plane- now you have a decent myth, almost impossible to achieve but i think even then you will get the plane to hover.
This is so GD depressing. The plane only reacts with windspeed. Tie the plane to a tree, and give it a hurricane, it will take off. The treadmill has nothing to do with the plane's lift. This stupid comment thread just shows how dumb our education system is.
@Stammon You can say that again! I can't believe how ignorant and dumb some of these comments are. What is so hard to understand to about this? Then again, I'm not surprised. One third of the students in my physics class got a D or lower! Just pathetic.
@Stammon I can't believe that this conversation is still going, it's not stupidity man stupid people can usually learn things, I don't know what the hell this is
@BobtheX yeah on the cool people are. I guess if it wasn't for you super lame-o's walking around sounding like scared little kids the cool people wouldn't be as appreciated for their awesomeness
No, you do not get lift from speed. You get lift from Bernoulli's Effect across the wings. Put the airplane in a box and make it go a thousand miles an hour, nothing will happen even though the airplane has "speed". Tie the airplane to a tree, and get a big fan to flow air across the wings. If the air moves fast enough to create enough lift the airplane will take off.
It is air flow across the wings that generate lift. The air flowing across the top of the wing travels a longer distance than the air across the bottom. That differential distance generates differential pressure, enough air flow and the lack of pressure across the top of the wing will "suck" the wing up, and the airplane with it. Putting the airplane on a treadmill to make the wheels spin does NOTHING.
The quality of education in this country would be laughable if it wasn't so sad.
@Stammon Stammon, the experiment explained that a conveyor belt can not hold any airplane stationary like it would to a car or a human. This is why airplanes can gain forward airspeed and take off with no problem on a conveyor belt moving at the same speed. You were assuming the plane would be held stationary by the belt. This is impossible due to physics, your assumption was wrong. You were wrong. The plane took off from a conveyor belt matching its speed.
Listen and learn. The only factor in the airplane taking off is the wind speed over the wings. Enough airspeed, the plane takes off, not enough, the plane does not. Whether or not the airplane is tied to anything, the conveyor belt will make no difference. The wheels might turn faster, but the airplane will increase it's speed relative to the surrounding airspeed until enough air goes over the wings to create enough lift to take off. The conveyor belt has nothing to do with it.
@Stammon I apparently misunderstood your post, and apparently you misunderstood mine, because we are in agreeance that a conveyor belt is incapable of holding an airplane stationary, and any plane can take off easily from any treadmill going any speed due to the propulsion method.
I have no assumptions here. If you do not understand this, you are an ignoramus. Go off and be stupid, just be quiet about it. Please guys, help me out here, I am being drowned in a sea of dumbass.
@Stammon That was my point i was not refering to the speed of the wheels but of the object, and the plane obvously isnt moving when its on a convyerbelt/treadmill.
Read my post again, its not as explanatory as yours but its still fully valid.
@Stammon I know what you mean, i was so annoyed that this made it onto the show. Although it wasn't the first time they were looking at a myth which would have been immediately obvious had somebody taken a step back and said, "hey! why don't we actually look at this myth from the standpoint of somebody over the age of 12"
@Stammon i was saying that to myself when i saw the example i know that and im only 13 aka i have less experience yet i know better than mythbusters!!! in ur face mum!!
@Stammon Hey, I knew that in the first place, but I just wanted to see what happened. You don't have to talk nasty just because people want to test a myth.
@Stammon Education system could be immaculate and people still wouldn't understand this stuff. Our Education system doesn't teach people to solve problems or understand concepts, it's developed to get them to memorize facts without thinking about them, then regurgitate those facts on to paper so they'll pass a class they hate. The only thing we teach anyone is 'play along until you're out of school.'
@Apocol0id You simply approved - by stating what's the point of the Educational system - that it is crap. If Education means Remembering, than Education is a bad thing and not what we need. We need Understanding in order to be able to progress and evolve science (ie knowledge).
@Stammon why dont you watch the end and pay attention to what they are actually showing in the experiment before you attempt to insult our education system?
investigating how "airplanes" brought down those buildings when it NEVER ever happened before, besides being one of the most structurally designed buildings in the world. Why would someone(cia, federal govt) threaten the life of others over an investigation if there is nothing to hide??
ww w youtube com watch?v=lTUaZl6Nyho makes it pretty clear who is telling the truth and who is threatening to shut up the truth, Just look at the government with 9/11. Why do you think the losers at MythBusters WILL NOT do any more 9/11 Myth stories if what happened, really happened???? The Federal Government called Torie and threatened them to leave it alone is why you will never see those lying puppets do a TRUE story about a stupid moon landing, let alone 9/11.
i dont think this is true because its only making the plane stand by itself while the ground is moving,
since the airplane needs air to take off, the air isn't moving into its on wings making it stand perfectly still while take off is virtually impossible
Silly youtube scientists, stop giving us all your ridiculous theorum and watch a video on how aeroplanes actually work before giving your ludicrous ideas and suggestions. If there was any other way for aeroplanes to be taking off, it would have been done already, you're not the person that gets paid $500,000 a year to research how to do these things.
THIS SUBJECT IS ONLY DEBATABLE BECAUSE THERE ARE DUMBASSES IN THE WORLD a one-second examination of the question by anyone with a brain gives you your answer
REAL Free energy technology exists!But the powerfull Oil business won't alow common ppl to know this,Get a motor that works with the power of magnets only at LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM ,Join the revolution!
@xuyingken - It wouldn't work. Moving the ground won't shorten the required take-off distance. Moving the air would be better (but would likely cause way too much turbulence to be practical, even if it could be done cheaply enough). It's all about air-speed, not ground-speed.
OH! pff. I just watched the second part and I was pretty confused. I didn't know that the plane would be moving. I thought the plane would stay stationary, and the tarp would move... Even still, this myth was an epic fail. Of course the plane would take off. It has nothing to do with how fast the wheels are spinning beneath the plane, it matters how fast the planes airspeed is, to create enough lift with the wings...
MYTHBUSTERS!!!!! i got this myth from a friend... PLEASE TEST IT!!!! ok so there is this old man with a grandfather clock in one house and this ghetto teen-adult with an awesome sterio system next door. one day the teen decides to cranks his speakers all the way up... and the sound waves were so loud that they were able to effect the pendulum on the clock, throwing the whole clock foward half an hour!!! CAN YOU PLEASE TEST THIS!!!!!
@gorgonzo1a What is failing is your understanding. Air does flow under the wings because the plane still moves forward exactly the same way it would on a stationary runway. The only difference is the wheels are spinning faster. The propeller pulls the plane through the air. The wheels prevent drag from the runway from slowing it down. It does not matter how fast the wheels spin.
@zimtower the result would be the same. The jet engines do not act against a conveyor belt, they act against the mass of the air above the conveyor belt. That mass of air is not pulled backward by a conveyor belt or tarp. The backward motion of the belt or tarp only makes the plane's wheels spin faster. This does not add drag to the plane because of the wheel bearings.
*Facepalms* Just the idea is silly.. Air passes by the wings, creating lift.. It does not have anything to do with the speed of the wheels.. stupidest myth ever.
Free energy has been here all along ,But the Establishment doesn't want ppl to know this,Check this free energy magnet motor at LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM ,take part in the revolution!
If the wheels are lubricated well enough, then the tarp will do nothing more than make the wheels spin twice as fast. The plane will still be pulled forward by the propeller and the low air pressure above the wing vs the higher air pressure below the wing will suck the plane up off the ground, as usual.
@sk8rdman pressure would stay the same because the air around the plane is not moving youd have to have a fan that blows the airspeed when it takes off for it to completely work

For this myth, if you have wind hitting the front of the plane at 8 m/s, then you can say the plane has a velocity of 8 m/s because the plane is catching the same wind and pressures it would at 8 m/s without the opposing forces. Myth then becomes "can a plane without velocity fly without wind?" No. If the plane flies, it's because velocities were not canceled, like in the video.

pingpongfreak888 11 months ago
Ok people who cant understand why the plane WILL take off: Lets say the plane takes off on a flat normal surface (not the treadmill) and when it takes off, the wheels are spinning 100 miles per hour. Lets say the treadmill is moving at 100 MPH. The plane gets on the treadmill and the propeller will pull the plane forward, but the wheels will have to spin 200 MPH to take off. The only way the airplane WOULD NOT take off, is if the treadmill was programmed to match the speed ofthehweelsoftheplane.
bcopp8323 11 months ago
@bcopp8323 The wheels will be spinning at 200 MPH (probably measured in RPMs but whatever), the plane itself will be still going 100 mph to take off. The treadmill just makes the wheels spin faster, the plane WILL take off. I know this and I have never taken a physics class in my life.

@bcopp8323 But the 'myth' explicitly states that the plane is moving forward at the same speed the treadmill is moving backwards, i.e. ground speed zero. You're postulating that the plane is driving forwards twice as fast, relative to the treadmill. If the difference in velocity is higher then the plane's minimum takeoff speed, then it will take off. Fair enough, but that's not what this whole utterly ridiculous myth is about.

carmium 11 months ago
@arr5612 Actually you're wrong. A static plane does not take off, true. However a plane does not take speed like a car, the car engine rotates the wheels thus a treadmill will cancel it. HOWEVER!! a plane engine does not activate the wheels, it uses air propelling, the wheels will just spin twice as fast so it will cancel the treadmill and the plane will have the same speed. This is without taking friction into consideration which will reduce the speed by a little amount.
stefanstalex 10 months ago
@stefanstalex this whole debate is one big miscommunication, the people who say it wont take off mean an actual treadmil, the thing you excersise on, obviously it wouldnt take off one of those because it would hit the front, but if you mean a huge conveyer belt and normal plane then yes.
arr5612 10 months ago
@arr5612 Well actually it's not a miss-communication, it's the fact that people have the impression that a plane will remain static on a treadmill just like a car, or a human, or anything that is using wheel propulsion, the plane however does not use that kind of propulsion, it uses air propulsion through it's propeller, so it makes a treadmill do absolutely nothing. A plain will travel at 100 km/hr on a road, add a treadmill that goes 100000 km/hr the other way, the plane will still go100km/hr
stefanstalex 10 months ago
@stefanstalex yes, i just mean on an actual treadmil it would just hit the front and crash, its a miscommunication because people like me hear the word treadmil and think of the excersise machine, when people usually are refering to a conveyer belt. Its just people being confused with an actual treadmil and a huge conveyerbelt, it would still try to take off on a treadmil but hit the front supports lol
arr5612 10 months ago
@arr5612 Lol... i think you're the only one who thought about that :D. Most people say this because they think a conveyor belt will make the plane static- like a car/human... i don't think the myth is about the plane crashing on the bars...
stefanstalex 10 months ago
@arr5612 That's the problem of the myth, the fact that most people relate to engine-wheel-ground to gain speed, whereas a plane uses engine-propeller-air, the wheels on the plane is just to reduce friction with the ground.
The only way to do this test is not a treadmill, but a wind tunnel- which is the treadmill equivalent to a plane- now you have a decent myth, almost impossible to achieve but i think even then you will get the plane to hover.
stefanstalex 10 months ago
This is so GD depressing. The plane only reacts with windspeed. Tie the plane to a tree, and give it a hurricane, it will take off. The treadmill has nothing to do with the plane's lift. This stupid comment thread just shows how dumb our education system is.

COldfusionstorm 9 months ago

SIGH!!!
No, you do not get lift from speed. You get lift from Bernoulli's Effect across the wings. Put the airplane in a box and make it go a thousand miles an hour, nothing will happen even though the airplane has "speed". Tie the airplane to a tree, and get a big fan to flow air across the wings. If the air moves fast enough to create enough lift the airplane will take off.
Stammon 9 months ago
It is air flow across the wings that generate lift. The air flowing across the top of the wing travels a longer distance than the air across the bottom. That differential distance generates differential pressure, enough air flow and the lack of pressure across the top of the wing will "suck" the wing up, and the airplane with it. Putting the airplane on a treadmill to make the wheels spin does NOTHING.
The quality of education in this country would be laughable if it wasn't so sad.
Stammon 9 months ago
@Stammon Stammon, the experiment explained that a conveyor belt can not hold any airplane stationary like it would to a car or a human. This is why airplanes can gain forward airspeed and take off with no problem on a conveyor belt moving at the same speed. You were assuming the plane would be held stationary by the belt. This is impossible due to physics, your assumption was wrong. You were wrong. The plane took off from a conveyor belt matching its speed.
mitchio83 9 months ago
@mitchio83
Listen and learn. The only factor in the airplane taking off is the wind speed over the wings. Enough airspeed, the plane takes off, not enough, the plane does not. Whether or not the airplane is tied to anything, the conveyor belt will make no difference. The wheels might turn faster, but the airplane will increase it's speed relative to the surrounding airspeed until enough air goes over the wings to create enough lift to take off. The conveyor belt has nothing to do with it.
Stammon 9 months ago
@Stammon I apparently misunderstood your post, and apparently you misunderstood mine, because we are in agreeance that a conveyor belt is incapable of holding an airplane stationary, and any plane can take off easily from any treadmill going any speed due to the propulsion method.

@xuyingken - It wouldn't work. Moving the ground won't shorten the required take-off distance. Moving the air would be better (but would likely cause way too much turbulence to be practical, even if it could be done cheaply enough). It's all about air-speed, not ground-speed.

OH! pff. I just watched the second part and I was pretty confused. I didn't know that the plane would be moving. I thought the plane would stay stationary, and the tarp would move... Even still, this myth was an epic fail. Of course the plane would take off. It has nothing to do with how fast the wheels are spinning beneath the plane, it matters how fast the planes airspeed is, to create enough lift with the wings...

gorgonzo1a 1 year ago
@gorgonzo1a What is failing is your understanding. Air does flow under the wings because the plane still moves forward exactly the same way it would on a stationary runway. The only difference is the wheels are spinning faster. The propeller pulls the plane through the air. The wheels prevent drag from the runway from slowing it down. It does not matter how fast the wheels spin.

zimtower 1 year ago
@zimtower the result would be the same. The jet engines do not act against a conveyor belt, they act against the mass of the air above the conveyor belt. That mass of air is not pulled backward by a conveyor belt or tarp. The backward motion of the belt or tarp only makes the plane's wheels spin faster. This does not add drag to the plane because of the wheel bearings.

If the wheels are lubricated well enough, then the tarp will do nothing more than make the wheels spin twice as fast.
