I love mythbusters but I agree with Blacksmith Spader.I still wouldn't do it unless it were to save my life.

I thought Mythbusters said to not try this at home!!!

right, but at the same time, we all know that they really mean... "DON'T TRY THE ONES THAT WE KNOW WILL KILL YOU... at home." They just show us what to expect first... I love that show...
