Season 1 Trivia

  • Episode 03 - Goof (factual errors): In the lawn chair balloon myth the narration refers to the "Federal Airport Administration." The actual name of the agency is the Federal Aviation Administration.
  • Episode 13 - Goof (continuity error): In the "Frog Giggin'" myth, the high speed camera footage shows a shot of Buster's leg in the driver's seat of the pickup before Adam and Jamie put him in it.
  • Episode 06 - Goof (errors made by characters, possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): In the Ohm's Law equation, Jamie Hyneman misspells resistance "resistence."
  • Episode 15 - Goof (factual errors): Early in this episode, a group of military men is shown marching in step for a myth where a bridge can supposedly be destroyed by marching soldiers. However, the men shown drilling aren't soldiers - they're marines.
  • Episode 11 - Goof (revealing mistake): In the graphic model of the raincoat raft, the word "pontoon" is misspelled as "pantoon".
