I really like watching this show. But then I feel like a bad person afterwords.  Ohhhhh, I see.

I really dug the marathon. That satisfied my apetite for destruction for a while. This show is definitely a guilty pleasure. This and Cops.  Ohhhhh, I see.

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.

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.

I have never played WoW.

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.

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.

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.

Yes time warp is very cool. A lot of things look very interesting and impressive when done in super slow mo.

Another 'yes time warp is cool' vote here. A DVR favorite.
