In a redwood forest not so far, far away,
在一个不太远的红木林中
it's Kari, Grant and Tory's turn to get their nerd on.
轮到卡莉格兰特和托里大显身手了
Okay, guys, so this is the "Star Wars" special
本期是星球大战特辑
and we're in a forest.
而我们在一片树林中
Guess where we are?
猜猜我们在哪个场景
So clearly we're on Endor.
显然我们是在恩多星上
So we must be doing Ewok myths.
那一定是有关伊渥克的流言
That's exactly right.
完全正确
We're doing the scene from "Return of the Jedi,"
我们的流言来自于《绝地归来》
where the Ewoks attack the All Terrain Scout Transport
片中伊渥克袭击了全地形侦察机
and smash it with two giant logs.
用两根巨大的原木将其砸烂
We're basically gonna see how much damage
我们要验证单凭
we can do to an armored vehicle
两根原木撞摆的冲击
using nothing but giant swinging logs.
究竟能对一辆装甲车造成多大伤害
Essentially, this is a physics myth about forces.
本质上这是个关于力学的流言
Not the Force?
不用原力吗
No, Grant.
不是的格兰特
Use the science, Grant.
要用科学的力量格兰特
Yep, yep!
对耶对耶
R2, roll the clip.
R2 开始播放
It's a fictional battle scene from a fictional universe,
这是个虚构宇宙中的虚构战斗场景
but the hypothesis still stands.
尽管如此这个题设仍然有意义
Could a primitive log-swing weapon
一个原始的原木撞摆装置
really take out an reinforced, armored vehicle.
能否摧毁一辆坚固的装甲车呢
Should we be in character?
是不是该进入角色呢
Uh, no.
不对
Oh, it's much better. That was totally the wrong Leia.
这下好多了刚刚那版莉娅简直胡闹
It's Endor Leia
这才是恩多上的莉娅
So, it occurs to me that we are gonna need two things for this-
我想这个流言需要两样东西
an AT-ST and a giant swinging log rig.
一台全地形侦察机和一个巨型原木撞摆装置
The builds for this experiment are going to be insane.
这个实验的设备搭建工程将会非常疯狂
That log crushing rig looks gigantic.
因为这个原木撞摆是在是太巨大了
All right, sounds good.
听起来不错
Guess we better get started.
我们该开工了
Back here on Earth,
回到地球上
Let's Put it over there. Yep.
放那边吧对
the team prepares for one of the biggest builds it's ever attempted.
他们开始建造流言史上最浩大的工程之一
Hey R2, who is your favorite Mythbuster?
R2 你最喜欢的流言终结者是谁
You are just saying that.
哄我开心呢吧
They are recreating the massive forest of Endor,
他们要再现恩多星上的茂密树林
Mine.
归我了
and the Ewoks' ingenious giant log swing.
以及伊渥克独创的巨型原木撞摆
Why this abandoned field, you ask?
也许你会问为什么选这么偏僻的地方
Why not something looks more like the forest moon of Endor,
为什么不选一个和恩多的森林卫星
the natural habitat of the Ewoks?
即伊渥克的栖息地更相似的场景呢
Well, we don't actually know
我们还不清楚当原木
what's gonna happen when the logs hit their target.
击中目标时会发生什么
So, we need a safety perimeter, a large wide open space.
所以我们需要一个安全区域即开放空间
And that makes this the ideal location.
因此这里是个理想的场地
The question is,
问题在于
how are we gonna suspend them in midair
我们该如何把它们悬挂在半空中
so that we can actually pull them apart
从而可以拉开它们
and let them crush our Walker?
并且撞击侦察机
Well, we are gonna plant our own trees,
我们需要自己栽树
or telephone poles, at least,
其实是电♥话♥线杆
with the help of industrial power solutions.
当然要借助现代化器械
They're gonna auger some holes.
工人们将先钻些孔
We are gonna lower the pole into it and save a bunch of time.
然后插入木桩这样能节省不少时间
You know what? I don't really care what your script says.
我不管你剧本上是怎么写的
I don't think slave Leia was in the scene.
奴隶版莉娅是不会出场的
No.
不行
From the movie, the team has determined
根据影片终结者们推断出
that the height of the Chicken Walker is 20 feet.
鸡行者高约6米
The log swings from 45 degrees
原木从45度角开始下摆
and what the relative size of those logs are
长3米直径1.5米的原木
at 10 feet long and 5 feet in diameter,
其相对尺寸为何呢
the answer is-
那就是
Woo that is insane!
太疯狂了
Oh, my God!
我的天啊
Big!
硕大
Now in the movie, it looks like the Ewoks use redwood.
电影中伊渥克使用的像是红木
But, since it wasn't planet Earth,
但那不是在地球上
you don't really know what kind of wood it was.
很难说他们用的是什么木头
Oh R2, oh Master Luke is not going to be happy.
R2 卢克主人要不高兴了
So we decided here on Earth,
因此我们决定
we wanted to go with the hardest wood we could find,
选用地球上能找到的最坚硬的木材
which happens to be Eucalyptus.
也就是桉树
Weighing in at 10,000 pounds each,
每根原木重达4.5吨♥
the guys get busy cross-bracing
工人们必须添加交叉支撑
and cable-anchoring the structure to support them.
和固定缆索来支撑其重量
That 45?
是45度吗
I think that's 45-ish.
我看差不多
With that done, it's time to log and roll.
完成之后原木摇滚即将开始
Tory and I are putting the logs into place.
托里和我要将原木就位
Now, how do you move a 10,000-pound log,
怎样才能用一个4吨♥级的铲车
when your forklift only has a 9,000-pound capacity?
去移♥动♥一个重达4.5吨♥的原木呢
Yee, haw, log rodeo.
原木摇滚秀
Carefully.
小心
Out of my way, people.
请让路各位
Next step,
下一步
the mission critical operation of craning the logs into position.
是把原木吊起的关键步骤
Now, it's gonna be very tricky,
这个步骤会有些棘手
because as you can see,
因为正如你所见
the structure has a lot of bracing,
整个结构有很多的支柱
and it's going to be difficult
想要把原木放进去
to actually get the logs inside of it.
其实很困难
That is terrifying.
真恐怖
Now remember these things are 10,000 pounds,
别忘了这玩意有4.5吨♥重
and there is not a lot of room for mistakes.
在操作上容不得半点差错
That is a lot of stretch right there.
已经有很严重的变形了
I mean, if this 10,000 pounds goes crashing
无论这4.5吨♥的庞然大物
to one side or the other,
撞向任何一边
the whole thing could come down.
整个结构都可能垮掉
Okay, well, it's holding the log up.
好原木已吊起
That's good.
不错
Round two...
第二轮开始...
Looking good.
还算顺利
and trunk two...
第二根原木...
Why is that spinning like that?
怎么转得这么厉害
Holy crap.
老天啊
All right.
好了
is nervously...
在不安中...
Keep coming.
继续往上吊
maneuvered into position.
就位完毕
And despite the structure protesting...
尽管支架发出吱嘎的抗♥议♥声...
Can you hear the cracking?
你听到断裂声了吗
once raised and supported...
经过调整加固之后...
Yeah,
好了
it seems to be holding.
它似乎还坚挺
That's pretty gorgeous.
这真棒
Okay, we're good.
好了我们搞定了
As far as stressful workdays go,
就以往的工作压力而言
this is reasonably stressful.
今天的压力强度还可以接受
And with the relief comes the anticipation.
如释重负后是满满的期待
I'm getting excited.
我越来越激动了
This is so cool.
太酷了
Now, the question is, will the rig actually rock?
