Title: Destroyed in Seconds Post by: Abagadro on December 04, 2008, 06:22:09 PM I really like watching this show. But then I feel like a bad person afterwords. :oh_i_see:

BOOM Title: Re: Destroyed in Seconds Post by: Abagadro on January 03, 2009, 08:49:26 PM Wooooo, DiS marathon on Discovery right now!
Title: Re: Destroyed in Seconds Post by: Ozzu on January 04, 2009, 02:02:49 AM Wooooo, DiS marathon on Discovery right now! I really dug the marathon. That satisfied my apetite for destruction for a while. This show is definitely a guilty pleasure. This and Cops. :oh_i_see: Title: Re: Destroyed in Seconds Post by: Khaldun on January 04, 2009, 12:33:29 PM I also love this show. My daughter and wife indulge a lot of my other more curious TV preferences, but neither one of them seems to find this as compelling.
Title: Re: Destroyed in Seconds Post by: shiznitz on January 05, 2009, 07:12:29 AM I was watching this with my kids (6,4,3) and the wife asked me to turn it off after the C-17 with retro-fitted rockets crashed.
Title: Re: Destroyed in Seconds Post by: Abagadro on January 05, 2009, 09:30:10 PM Ahhhhh. Another highly satisfying episode tonight. I particularly like the natural gas one with the wicked power-pole torch.
It also confirmed my belief that if you are dumb enough to go climb a mountain and get fucked up, it should be too bad, so sad and society shouldn't bust out the 15 million dollar helicopter to come get your ass. Title: Re: Destroyed in Seconds Post by: kaid on January 06, 2009, 10:21:40 AM Yup I was always of the opinion that if you do risky things like climbing a mountain don't expect others to risk their life for you. If you cannot get back under your own power we are not going to waste the time/resources/ other lives to help you.
Title: Re: Destroyed in Seconds Post by: Mr_PeaCH on January 06, 2009, 10:42:31 AM Another great show in this vein is Time Warp where the guys point a super slow-mo camera at stuff, often while it is being destroyed. The best I've seen was dropping the frozen turkey in the deep fryer. :awesome_for_real: Less guilt, lots of pleasure.
Title: Re: Destroyed in Seconds Post by: kaid on January 06, 2009, 11:52:25 AM Yes time warp is very cool. A lot of things look very interesting and impressive when done in super slow mo.
Title: Re: Destroyed in Seconds Post by: Slayerik on January 07, 2009, 08:54:42 PM Another 'yes time warp is cool' vote here. A DVR favorite.
