Product Description

From the Manufacturer

From the #1 series on Discovery Mythbusters uses science to determine the truth behind urban legends. Using scientific method an plain old-fashioned curiosity and ingenuity, the Mythbusters test myths both widely-known and obscure, potentially life saving and seemingly trivial. They've tested the best way to get out of a sinking car, whether toast always falls buttered side down, if a bunch of balloons could actually carry you away, and much more. Offering a unique, offbeat and often explosive look at science Mythbusters is hosted by Jamie Hyneman and adam savage, and build team members Tory Belleci, Kari Byron and Grant Imahara. The team's combined experience in animatronics, robotics, model building and prototyping, along with their pure, gleeful passion for exploration and experimentation, arm them with the drive and ability to create and build anything they need to test a myth. Called the best science program on television Mythbusters is widely credited with making science cool again. Airing on Discovery Channel since October 2003, the series has challenged over 300 myths to date.

My Boys LOVE Mythbusters and this kit is great. My boys are 6 and 9. The 6 year old would not have been able to do the kit by himself, but with the help of his 9 year old brother, they had a blast.

I bought this toy for my 8 year old son for Christmas and he was extremely disappointed...he had already done some of these experiments on his own prior to owning this product....I mean, some of the objects in the box are straws cut in half, balloons that break easily...I mean come on....CHEAP!! And the thing is , the toy was expensive. Would not recommend.

When I was little we had Bill Nye the Science Guy, now kids (and adults) watch Mythbusters. While I miss some of the goofy-ness of Bill Nye, Mythbusters does have a ton more firepower on their show! This kit is awesome for kids or adults. It makes for a really great rainy day activity or a fun project to do with your kids!
