Mythbusters brought to life all of those legendary folklores that many people assumed were the truth. The show aimed to test whether these age-old tales had any truth in them, or whether they had no shred of believability to them whatsoever.
Things like shooting fish in a barrel, sticking your tongue to a freezing pole, making lead balloons, and a whole host of movie clichés were put to the test. The team would take a scientific approach to each and every myth to make sure they covered all possible outcomes. They would then determine the results as either; busted, confirmed or plausible.



The show was broadcast on the Discovery Channel and first aired in 2003 and continued to be broadcast on the channel until 2016. There have been 16 seasons of the show so far, and it is currently undergoing a revival after moving channels in 2017 to the Science Channel.
The original presenters synonymous with Mythbusters, Adam Savage, and Jamie Hyneman, have stepped down from presenting duties now, but are remembered fondly by fans of the show. If you are curious about some of the myths the show managed to bust during their 16 seasons, then you are in luck. We have some of the top myths busted on the show that mixed a whole lot of science with fun and crazy theories.

It is a common sci-fi movie trope that humans only use 10% of their brains, so if they could harness the rest of the 90% of their brain power they could do amazing things. It’s always been an effective way for sci-fi flicks to demonstrate how much unused potential human beings have, which makes for an interesting plot – but is it true? In a bid to try and unlock the full capacity of his brain, Tory underwent several MRI scans to monitor his brain activity. They discovered that at any one time he used as much as 35% of his brain. The experiment also showed that doing different tasks uses different lobes which means we do use more than just 10%.
