Mythbusters - Alaska Special

by Healthy Shana on May 5th, 2008

Who would the Mythbusters be if they didn’t have their hand in Discovery Channel’s Alaska Week Special episodes. Well they did it again but this time to a level that I never thought they would take it. This episode features a dog, a moose and some sleep deprived guinea pigs.

Myth 1: Dynamite Dog
Adam and Jaime are tasked to test the myth about the fisherman who decided to blast through the ice of Alaska using dynamite. He of course forgets about his dog, a golden retriever, who fetches back the dynamite.

Myth 2: Moose steps out in front of a speeding car
Grant, Kari and Tory are testing whether or not it is safer to speed up or stop when a moose steps out in-front of your speeding car, which I’m assuming happens alot in Alaska.

Myth 3: Cabin Fever
Jaime and Adam agree to spend 48 hours alone in isolation in two separate cabins to see if cabin fever is indeed a real thing. Hilarious!!! 

Watch the video below as they test the fetching dog myth.
