That would be amazing, There robot experince alone is enough for me to wish to meet them. Heck, i want to see Jamies "Life and Death Machine" In person, and they have Grant Imahara as a mythbuster now, He built Deadblow of battelbots fame.

Re: Woodie On Mythbusters!

I could see Adam and Jamie coming to Nationals and giving a presentation about the importance of Science and Technology in our lifetime, as well as how they got started in their field. I'd definitely be interested in this.

Jamie did special effects for a loooooonnnnnnnggggggg time, and both he and Adam built combat robots for a while. Anyways, I'd rather see them bust a myth like, "Can a Poof-Slinky 7" foam Jr. Basketball break a car windshield?" .

Ohhh i want to see that episode! "FIRST Myths"
"Can a Poof-Slinky 7" foam Jr. Basketball break a car windshield?"
"Just how far can you fire a poof ball if you had no limits?"
"How many poofballs you can make into the center goal as fast as possible if you had no limit?"

Honistly, i thought they might be doing something like this when i saw the teaser for the next episode, but alas its dealing with the helium footbal myth

Re: Woodie On Mythbusters!

My suggestion would be try to get their emails, or workshop address, and send them invitations to nationals. Their addresses are probably unregistered or well hidden, but things like that can be found if enough research is done. And just send them as many invitations as we can.

Which is the reasoning behind having a hidden address.

One invitation should be plenty.

Re: Woodie On Mythbusters!

I'd Recommend talking with Team 841. Grant is a close (almost only) mentor on their team, and he'd probably be more than willing to talk the guys into stopping by the Nationals. BTW, he stopped by the Davis Regional with a sprained ankle from the show and spoke to the teams.

(my very first post , forgive any etiquette rules I'm breaking here...)

Not exactly
http://www.m5industries.com/html/contact.htm (Jamie's Company, M5 Industries)
http://www.adamsavage.com/contact.html (Adam Savage's personal website contact info)

Took a Google search for M5 mythbusters (Since i couldn't remember the full title of Jamie's company). If anyone wants to take it to the next level, Find email addresses for the rest of the mythbuster team (its 4am here and i don't really feel like searching more)

One note, please respect there contact requests on their websites, We do not want to make them hate FIRST by not following their contact rules.
