Funny -- while I was waiting for my account to activate yesterday, my local cable provider was running a Mythbusters marathon, so I actually had a chance to see quite a few episodes (great show, by the way...)

On the shows running yesterday, Adam could be seen wearing two distinct hats, one an Akubra Drover, the other an Akubra Bushman.

Cheers,
Jim

Welcome Jim! :D

I'd never noticed that. I always get a kick out of that show.

After the Mythbusters already busted the myth of the rubber boat scene from Temple of doom I hope they will check some more Indy myths.
So Adam, if you read this, it is your DUTY to do so as an Indyfan! :wink:
How about trying to stop a lorry with your shoes? :lol:

I missed that episode. I'm guessing a rubber raft does NOT make a good parachute, right?

Hey its great to hear we've got such insteresting members :c) I've only been able to catch part of one episode, but I remembered thinking "Cool show and cool hat!" (for me, Indy's bash is the way to go, but I've always had a fondness for teardrop crowns... my first fedora was a teardrop bash...)
