Biggest Explosion On Mythbuster History

[p8chill]

this may be the biggest but i will always like the original cement truck bomb

[xstremetime]

the industrial diamonds they made were only worth about 25 cents

[Sarethofdarkness]

i have an idea for the 31th december ... mmh

[AssemblerGuy]

That's 0,0025 kiloton. C'mon Mythbusters; do something nuclear. You *know* you want to :-D

[TheMols14]

just because its the biggest doesnt mean its the coolest! i think the 22000 foot fall look way more awesome! >:D

[Xenom44]

And then Adam comes and says "This is science !"

[ifartnaked]

zero -__-

[xPo1S0nXs0DaX]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!

[0806lipe]

1:02 Chuck Norris farting

[gaussman08]

[ragheadexterminator]

[ultimatetwinkielover]

[OFFEVERYFUCKINGDAY]

@ultimatetwinkielover yes it did but only very small industrial diamonds

[thegreatmiki]

:'( i was hoping for TSAR bomb :'(

[xXfk96Xx]

omg

pause at 1:24

[AirsoftReviews1011]

@xXfk96Xx looks like a volcano

[xXfk96Xx]

@AirsoftReviews1011 no,it looks like a hand,and the hand giving the finger :O

[AirsoftReviews1011]

@xXfk96Xx haha NOW i see it xD

[JustMyJuice]

That reminds me of when Gohan charged up versus Cell

[vejet]

1:22 - today's desktop screen saver

[rdhandley1]

lol the argument below is pretty funny

[SwissGuitarStarter]

1. Pause, play again

2. Press 2

3. Wait 3 seconds

4. Press 2 again...

[YoutuJ3eJ3lows]

Nuke!

[xlmeay]

Obviously you do care. Otherwise, you would not have even bothered to type that last response. Now stop playing victim, everyone sees through it.

[Orion4442]

@xlmeay Just shut up and leave me alone.

[xlmeay]

@Orion4442 Someone still cares.

[Orion4442]

@xlmeay Yeah I do, but I don't wanna talk about it.

[xlmeay]

@Orion4442 Clearly you do.

[Orion4442]

@xlmeay We've established that, now stop talking to me. At this point you're just trying to get the last word in. Then again, I am with this comment.

[xlmeay]

@Orion4442 Baaaaawww "You are just a troll!"

Keep playing the victim card little kid.

[Orion4442]

@xlmeay I'm not trying to "play the victim card". I just want to be left alone. Is that too much to ask?

[drgutai1]

BOOOOM BABY!

[TheMattingo]

lol notice how at 1:09 there like OMG! and the guys in the back ground are just chilling and sitting down hahah

[iDoTuTZ]

Poor Shark

[SuperFrostee]

What is the flash above the explosion at 1:22

[xlmeay]

@SuperFrostee It is the air right about the explosion being extremely compressed. It is similar to what happens when a jet breaks the sound barrier.

[ConstantC4]

they should graduate to nukes, no problem.

[Freestuyl]

The ground is now diamonds!

[Yfr28]

I wonder when Mythbusters test some myth consisting nukes.

[oltorious]

Cmon!?

Does the clip really end right in the most beatiful high speed camera shot!?

D- for you funnyboy2

[supervegito2277]

@oltorious :D volcano ftw

[BTW6666]

That was so bright it showed the individual pixels on my iPod screen

[oldman32123]

so did it make diamonds or what.

[UAEdubaidude]

@oldman32123 very very small ones that were worth almost nothing

[xChrizo]

@oldman32123 No...



[j0han901]

@oldman32123 i watced it and the answer is: no

[TheMols14]

@oldman32123 yes it did but only small

[MrVagag]

@oldman32123 yes industrial diamonds not worth mutch..

[CousinStudios4]

I wonder if it did create some diamonds.

anyone know?

[Mockenbird]

@CousinStudios4 it did but there diamonds you use on your saw or something but not jewelry diamonds

[CousinStudios4]

@Mockenbird they're the same. but jewelry diamonds are cut, shaped and refined. Chainsaw diamonds are raw, straight-from-the-forge diamonds, that are only reformed to be slightly more pointy than they were when they were found.

[MacMan282]

@CousinStudios4 You have industrial grade and pretty grade. Same source, but one is of a different quality.

[Orion4442]

Announcer Dude: "800 pounds made a truck take flight."

-then-

"Van's team are packing a 20ft high wooden tube with 5000lbs of high explosives."

-then-

"With over 10 times the might of any other Mythbusters boom, it sure was a blast."

EPIC FAIL. Not even 7 times as much as 'Cement Mix Up' explosion.

[Raydienz]

@Orion4442 Define "might"

[Orion4442]

@Raydienz True, true. But I was thinking of it as the amount of explosives. Even still, the 'Cement Mix Up' explosion was much more awesome than this one.

[xlmeay]

@Orion4442 The weight of the explosives do not directly correlate to the amount of force they release.

Please take some chemistry classes so you are not such a failure.

[Orion4442]

@xlmeay Understood, but the insult was unnecessary, thank you.

[xlmeay]

@Orion4442 When you act snotty and type things like, "EPIC FAIL!" and pretend you know what you are talking about, an insult is necessary.

[Orion4442]

@xlmeay It was a period after "EPIC FAIL". Exclamation points aren't my thing, and insults are never necessary no matter what the cause. Besides, its not that I don't know what I'm talking about; its that you don't know what I'm talking about, what I'm referring to. I thought the narrator was talking about amount of explosives, thus I completely ignored physics. Sorry for "acting snotty", but that happens all the time on the internet. Get used to it.

[xlmeay]

@Orion4442 In which case you didn't even understand what the announcer was talking about. He said, "10 times the amount of might" not "10 times the amount of explosives". So it seems clear that you spoke and jumped to conclusions before you actually listened to what he said. Heck, you even typed it out! Even worse.

Sorry for being rude but that is going to happen all the time to people that act like you on the internet. Get used to it.

[Orion4442]

@xlmeay Oh whatever, I've stopped caring. It doesn't happen all the time; it only happens when you encounter people who insist on showing you your same fault over and over again. Case and point: you. I get it; I made a stupid mistake. You don't have to rub it in my face. Just please let this conversation end, I hate trolling.

[smibakitty4]

IF there was a picture next to awesomeness in the dictionary that explosion would be there :D

[johnnie420420420420]

stop at 1:23 check out the cone of air being sucked into the blast AWSOME!!!

[TheFalloutwizard]

chuck norris is gay

[CSN152]

[ShepperdW]

[mike44003]

8 people should have been sitting on top of the crate...

[henk0909]

0:21  Chuck Norris was dumping a beer corpse with a cement mixer, but he farted and then lit up a ciggaret

[drag0123]

[playboxwiistation360]

[emoemo247]

[stomyn]

So, were any damonds made? i never saw this episode

[lllshokoboylll]

not even close to the nasa's spaceship fuel explotion accident..

[ijustwonderif]

I would think that it would have obliterated any diamonds in there

[ShinobiGarth]

the screen went completely white for a second! oh man i love this show so much

[Vincerama]

How much does 5000 lbs of explosives cost?

[sammy11999955]

shockwave??

[belle272414]

DID IT?!?!?!?!

[missystar013]

I don't think it was spectacular as the other ones, because they weren't destroying anything. :/ Cement truck is still my fav!! :D

[chrisrileyeels47]

@TheIronArmy93 yeah so did i :(

[BabsH]

[keal5528]

0: 21 sounds like Biggest Fatus~

[celderian]

What's going on at 1:22?

[jfm429]

@celderian If you're referring to the point where it looks like something forms in midair above the explosion, then Google "Bomb Condensation Cloud".

[1Kapuchu100]

@jfm429 Thanks :) Ima check that out now (though i was not the one setting the comment you answered)

[KrewSurf]

look again... the explosives are now diamonds

[keal5528]

@KrewSurf umm.... 50 cents diamonds?

[TheMrVilla]

[ste1nunn]

@TheMrVilla id like to see his weading ring =O

[TheMrVilla]

@ste1nunn

currently being crafted in the center of our galaxy I presume

[ste1nunn]

@TheMrVilla

E=M C O_O the explosions there can not be scientiffeclly mesured XD

[beatboxpeej]

@ste1nunn actually its E=MC²

[lynxer0]

@beatboxpeej He said he didnt know how to put the two? keep reading~

[ste1nunn]

@beatboxpeej yeah i couldn't put the 2 above the C srry lame pc i gues :Ð

[beatboxpeej]

@ste1nunn Sorry. Didn't mean it to make you look as an idiot anyway.

[CyclonicTuna023]

5000 is military equivillant, in other words on mightyt big bunkerbuster

[godofmajora]

0:19 i could SWEAR i heard a HUGE fart sound right before the boom

[CashDog911]

bigger boom-nuke! MUWAHAHAHAHA

[XXXKingofSorrow]

This might not be the biggest, since the explosives are consentrated.

[Gartinmeister]

What broken math is the narrator using? 5,000 > 10 x 800?

[musicalmario28]

1:00 to 1:01 reminds me of a nuclear bomb going off!

[dareapa1]

that cement truck exploding sounds so cool

[titisuisse1052]

nice shockwave

[CloneWarrior001]

Blowing things up and getting payd for it...ON TV! These guys have the greatest jobs on earth. ^^

[c1976newfie]

cement mix up is the best boom.

[Reaperluver]

HOLY CRAP!

Well, you know what they say, "When all else fails... BLOW SHIT UP!" XD

[metaltijsi]

next time. they need 24 kill streak. lets nuke those diamonds

[GRENTHSNOOB]

during the experiment, where they considering how they were going to find the diamonds after the explosion?

[daholbroo]

That heat shock wave is so awesome... you should've played a few more seconds :(

[hamsturinn]

[GamingGenius]

Anybody know what episode the clip at the beginning, "Blackpowder Shark", is from?

[Zyxak]

@GamingGenius "Phonebook Friction" S6E13

[sporecreatorperson]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOM!!! MUHAHAHAAAHAH- EHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

[Pyroney]

[bonesaw667]

[angryace13]

ROFLMAO!!!!!



[DirectedBySteve]

0:20 great sound

[RectalSpoonNinja]

1:12 I see a mushroom cloud :D

[QualityHumorTV]

When theres ashes in the air and bodies in the trees you know... The mythbusters are near.

[lilmanual]

sounds like a howitzer round lol

[LazyBoy159741]

I still prefer 22,000 foot fall explosion though.

[Mrcoolandcute]

EPIC!!

[levski221]

muhuhhuuhuhahahahahhaahahahahh­a

[furpaproductions]

can anybody tell me which myth episodethis is from? pleease? :D

[cpcoasternut]

im sorry but 0:21 is still the best explosion

[TheGoongod]

Holy beep a nuke!

[thearmouredbunker]

nutters

[HAKERfromGREECE]

Hiroshima 0 time !

[HAKERfromGREECE]

is there a crater ? ZOOMG that was like a hydrogen bomb !

[Alex13N]

@HAKERfromGREECE a hydrogen bomb would vaporize everything in a 15 km radius... so not exactly...

[mbrsart]

I just love the cement truck. It makes the coolest sound and just...disappears. :D And I wanted to see more of the high speed on this one! Explosions on high speed cameras are the best!

[ChadMurrey]

The next time is gonna be a nuclear bomb.

[MajorShepard]

wow did u see the sound pressure wave come off that thing?!

[SuperRandomdude12]

lol, it sounds almost exactly like the HE grenade explosion in combat arms.

[PancakesoftheLove]

1:23 - Is that "cloud" at the top of the initial flash the air expelling from the tube breaking the sound barrier? What the FUCK.

[grubyub]

can anyone explain whats going on at 1:22 - 1:23 where there is a smaller conical cloud above the main explosion? Im guessing shock wave? What would cause such a wave then?

[HollowAgito]

If you pose somewhere in 1:23 you can see a diamond shaped thing on top of the explosion

[TheSonicGod]

Geez... that is an explosion of godlike power...

Now did it make any diamonds?

Meh.

I like watching stuff blow up. :D

[CAZZERNERY]

did it create diamonds? im guessing not

[LastTaboo]

That's a big firework. I wonder if I have to drive out of state to get one.

[RoseCrush]

I don't care that this was bigger... the cemnt truck was cooler.

[FlyingHangman]

@RoseCrush gotta agree there. this may have big cloud, but cement truck went from big vehicle.. to..... well, little bits.

[TheIronArmy93]

"did it germinate any gemsto..." i wanted to know :(

[ninja0wnzy0u]

@TheIronArmy93 It created diamonds but they weren't actually diamonds lol

[rawk4God777]

@TheIronArmy93 i can't remember, i think they got something from it, but the myth was definetly busted.

[sharpedge989]

theres something about carrie, grant, and tory that makes them seem like they have too much spirit...

[acdc10133]

@sharpedge989 yes i agree soo soo much lol i'm glad someone else thinks so. they bug me a bit...

[DopedUpMonkey]

I wonder what would happen if the explosives werent stoned..

(Drum roll)

[80sMeavyHetal]

wheres buster, their dummy? he's usually supposed to stand near the explosion, isnt he? :D lazy buster

[nattavision]

cement mix up sounded like somebody farting!

[antkiller9494]

the truck farted as it exploded

[MrFireworksfreak]

they for gotten the warning sticker DONT HOLD IN HAND...

[ethanrocco165]

Yes tiny gemstones I love mythbusters

[SethP666]

well did it turn up any gemstones?

[craman5]

Lol i love the comical explosion the cement truck makes

[rolandlub]

just like a mini nuke

[AcceptYourDeath]

I must say explosion of the cement mixer looks more spectacular, even if it wasn`t biger.

[mandowarrior123]

@AcceptYourDeath its pressure. the stronger the container the bigger the bang when it explodes. yeah they should have put that inside the cement mixer and seal it off ;D but yeah thats dangerous as large peicies of metal could fly miles into the air. would have made more diamonds too though, but still very fine ones, as it takes longer to create big crystaline structures :P
