Brainiac is lucky its got no competition at the 8:30 timeslot, because each week its getting more and more like a dero pommy mythbusters. Alot of the 'myths' they 'bust' were already done on mythbusters (like brown note, breaking glass with sound, Cd in microewave etc), and they get it wrong, for eg, mythbusters did the brown note (also known as brown noise) and it didnt make you sh*t, yet brainiac tried to say it did. Mythbusters also did it properly, with a proper sound effects guy.
Last nights epidode was dumb, especially the parachute one. What did they get out of it? The breaking of limbs didnt reflect a real humans because it was like styrofome (spellin), mythbusters in this weeks episode however when trying to see effects on the human body found materials similar to human bones etc to experiemnt with. Also, they didnt put any equipment on the dummies to see how hard they hit the ground and if they would have survied (like in mythbusters how they busted the myth that you can survive falling into the water from large heights if you break the waters surface first). They could have at least worked out how fast they were going when they hit the ground to see if it was a lethal speed
And the will it float thing, is like a rip off of david lettermans 'will it float' segment.
