hey everybody adam savage uh in my cave and i am taking questions today about
mythbusters and today's question comes from tristan pride tristan pride says do you still
have myths pop into your head that you would love to test and or bust yourself post mythbusters
yeah uh i can't turn that part of my brain off i i really can't um up until
up until about a year ago i was still coming across like a couple stories a month
and i was putting them on a master list i do have a favorite one that i've encountered
since mythbusters and i'm very sad that we don't have the show anymore that i can't test this one
but it's this great story about um a roomba as the tale goes a a couple had a roomba scheduled to
vacuum their house every night between two and three in the morning when they were asleep and
one morning early early early in the morning like 5am their infant daughter came into their bedroom
and i believe i remember reading this story from the husband's point of view his daughter comes
into the bedroom he wakes up they're snuggling and he's like why does my daughter smell
like [ __ ] literally like she smells like poop and she smells like poop her so he he walks out
into the main house and now it's like five in the morning to investigate
why his daughter smells like poop and it turns out that one of their dogs had diarrhea
just before it was time for the roomba to do its cleaning and so the roomba then took the
dog's diarrhea and spread it to every corner of the house oh that's right it's because the owner
walked out and he was like you know he wondering why his daughter smells like poop and he's
standing in his living room and he's like why is the floor gritty and then he turns the lights on
and that's when he sees what is called in the article the poopocalypse come on this is a story
letter perfect for the mythbusters i suppose you know anybody reboots it they could do this one
and just a suggestion if somebody is going to test this myth of the poopocalypse and can the roomba
spread a single dog diarrhea at every corner of the house you've got to add into that cat vomit
right because that's another animal fluid you're going to encounter that roomba is going to
make uh make hay with i'm sure there are others
yeah you've got to try each one and then you've got yeah it's a good met it's a fun story to test
i miss it i miss doing that i miss both the i missed both the methodological breakdown of
i miss choosing stories i miss build i miss building the methodologies to test those stories
and i miss being on set i miss being on set in the morning with coffee talking to stevo and why
and jacks and saws and just like sussing out what we're going to do that day yeah that was nice um
yeah i went down memory lane thank you guys so much for your awesome questions um yes tristan
your question's particularly great so i answered it today and you never you never lose the thing
you never it never goes away you you're always i'm always going to come across news stories and go
