This anti-scientific shit has the tags "scientific" and "educational," which is a real affront to common sense. If you came here to look at interesting processes that can only be seen when using high-speed cameras, then I have bad news for you. Here are the few things you will see in this "wonderful" slow-motion show: chopping up food with lawn mowers, saws, katanas, and other improvised means; exploding a blender filled with lighters; launching a bottle of cola several meters up using a high-tech method of shaking a carbonated drink with mint candy; pinching the tongue with a mousetrap and some other limbs are trapped by bear traps; opening a bottle of beer (strangely, this was not followed by its slow consumption); frying bacon; destroying various objects on human bodies. Interesting or at least good plots can be counted on the fingers of one hand. There will also be free ones. There wasn't a single scientist among the guests-they were all freaks and urban lunatics. The number of freaks and antics has been growing exponentially for two seasons. After watching this show, I stopped respecting Discovery. After all, TV is TV, even on pseudo-educational channels.
