When they did the bit with the exploding toilet, I was sure enjoying it... called up my finacee and explained that this is why you can't let engineers get bored... like when little kids get quiet, you know they're up to no good! OK, so these guys aren't engineers, but they sure have the right temperament! <G>
I do agree about the format, though, way too long...

I also remember reading about the incident that got the "Darwin Award" a few years ago. Car supposedly went airborne and smashed into a cliff - only found some tooth fragments.
So what was the conclusion? Was this story really true or simply another urban legend?

Definitely a legend. Even if you don't believe the story linked to above about the "real" rocket car (and I don't), there's just too much wrong with the darwin award story.
