I believe that we've shattered that myth.
这条流言被粉碎了
You're a "pane."
是会受"窗伤"的
Let's go.
走吧
Oh, hold on a second.
稍等一下
Nice!
很好
Way to make an exit.
很好的退场(死亡)方式
According to Hollywood,
在好莱坞的电影中
an R.P.G can flip anS.U.V. clear off its wheels.
一发火箭推进榴弹可以把一辆多功能车轻松掀翻
But so far,
但目前看来
that hasn't been the case.
并非如此
In test one, the R.P.G did not flip the S.U.V.
在测试一中火箭推进榴弹没能掀翻多功能车
So in test two, it's gonna be moving.
所以在测试二中车将保持运动
We're going to see if that momentum
我们要测试汽车的动量
helps flip the S.U.V. when it gets hit.
是否会在汽车被击中时帮忙把车掀翻
Now, for this test, it's critically important
本次测试最关键的是要保证
that the S.U.V. be moving in a straight line
多功能车沿直线运动
and not connected to anything
并且不与任何
that might prevent it from flipping.
可能会阻碍其翻转的物体相连接
To keep the S.U.V. going straight,
为了令多功能车保持直线运动
we have a pole in front and a pole in back
我们在车头和车尾分别安装了
that rides in this channel,
用于插入轨道的柱子
And then we have the S.U.V. anchored
然后我们将多功能车用缆绳
at the top of a hill by a cable.
固定在一座山的山顶
When we're ready to start the test,
当准备好开始测试时
we fire a cable cutter that releases it
我们就启用切割器切断缆绳
and lets it start to roll,
让多功能车开始滑行
and gravity does the rest.
剩下的就是重力的工作了
When the S.U.V. reaches the end of the track,
当多功能车到达轨道终点时
we will remotely fire the R.P.G into the front end
我们会对着它的前端遥控发射一枚火箭推进榴弹
to see if we can flip the vehicle.
看看这次能否将车掀翻
And with the S.U.V. poised at the crest of the hill,
随着多功能车在山顶准备就绪
the team hunker in the bunker once again.
小组再次躲到了观测室中
All right. Here we go.
好的开始吧
Like last time, the R.P.G will hit the hood head on,
和上次一样火箭弹将迎头击中发动机罩
but will that flip the S.U.V. Off its wheels?
但这次能否将多功能车掀翻呢
All right --S.U.V. away
好的释放多功能车
In 3, 2, 1, fire!
三二一释放
the S.U.V. is released...
多功能车被释放了...
It's picking up speed.
它正在加速
and gravity propels it to its R.P.G destiny.
重力将它推向了火箭弹的宿命
Wow! Did you see the front end?
你们看到它的前端没有
Looked like it popped up a bit.
看起来似乎是向上弹了一下
Yeah, it popped up, but that's not a flip.
它弹了一下但是没有被掀翻
That means this is busted.
这意味着流言被终结了
It was so cool, but it's busted.
真是太棒了但是还是被终结了
Totally. But that was a nice shot.
是的但还是干得漂亮
Nice shot.
真心不错
Still, no flippin' cigar.
结果仍然是没有掀翻
In fact, the R.P.G didn't even stop the S.U.V.,
实际上火箭弹都没能让多功能车停下来
And the car continued to roll up the bank.
车子继续冲上了斜坡
So, this myth is busted.
流言被终结了
Well, when you think about it, the job of an R.P.G
其实火箭推进榴弹的用途
is not to flip vehicles.
本来就不是炸翻车
It's designed to pierce armor,
它的设计重点是穿透装甲
and that's exactly what it did.
这一点体现得很好
It punched through the condenser, the radiator,
它穿透了冷凝器散热器
all the way into the engine block,
一直进入发动机缸体
but it did not flip the vehicle.
却没有造成车辆翻转
Yep -- there's no doubt that the live action
毫无疑问实际情况跟动作片里的
doesn't match the action film,
情节并不相符
but that's never deterred the mythbusters before.
不过流言终结者以前从未因此止步
This myth is busted, but we're not gonna stop here.
流言被终结了可我们不打算就此收手
No, this is my favorite part of the show,
到了这个节目我最喜欢的部分了
where we're gonna replicate the results.
我们将要重现电影效果
Oh, this is gonna be fun.
一定超有趣
Next up, it's a cinematic solution
接下来的内容是电影式
to traffic jams.
堵车解决方案
So what's our next crash myth?
下一条需要检验的流言是什么
Well, it's a common movie trope.
是一种常见的电影表现手法
First, I need you to picture
首先想象一下这个画面
a couple of lines of cars sitting in traffic
几条车道上堵满了车
when another character in the movie
与此同时有个电影角色
is driving a giant truck at high speed along city streets
开着大卡车沿街高速行驶
when he approaches these cars standing still.
驶向这些停滞的车辆
There's not enough space for him to get through, but no matter.
中间没有通行的空间不过这不是问题
He revs his engine and barrels right up the middle,
他加快速度冲进车辆中间
sending cars flying willy-nilly and continuing on his way.
硬挤开其它车辆继续前进
I don't know whether that would happen or not,
我不知道是不是真能如此
but sounds like it's gonna be fun to test it.
不过检验这个流言应该会很有意思
Yep -- according to the movies,
没错根据电影情节
a tailback is no match for a truck.
车辆长队阻止不了卡车的前进
But could you really keep on truckin' through traffic
可是卡车真的能穿行而过吗
or is this big-rig barge rigged?
还是这只是个噱头
Look, I think we get a bunch of cars,
我觉得我们弄一个车群
put them out on the tarmac, get a giant truck,
把它们停放在路上再找部大卡车
and see if we can't plow right through.
试试看能不能开过去
And I think I've got just the truck.
我想我刚好有一部合适的卡车
Awesome.
太棒了
When it comes to head-on collisions...
谈到正面冲撞
this truck has had its fair share of fender benders.
这辆卡车在交通事故中可是没少露面
And for Jato 3,
至于火箭车三代
it even became a rocket-proof bunker.
它甚至被用作防火箭观测室
So now it's armored, dangerous,
现在它已经全副武装危气逼人
and perfect for ramming into traffic.
准备好横冲直撞了
Well, almost.
还差一点
If our dump truck is going to survive
我们的卡车想要顺利
pushing through two lines of cars,
穿过两排车之间
it's gonna need a super-powerful bumper.
需要一个超强的保险杠
Okay.
好的
So we're putting on a much more powerful bumper.
所以我们要换一个更坚固的保险杠
This steel, these tubes,
这些长二十厘米
6x8 inches, 1/2-inch-thick steel.
宽十五厘米厚一厘米的钢管
They are beefy as...
粗壮得就像...
every word I was thinking of was a curse,
我能想到的比喻都不太文明
so they're just beefy.
所以还是用粗壮来形容吧
Yes, to make sure the truck will survive to drive another day,
为了确保卡车在实验后还能存活
Jamie finishes bolstering the bumper
杰米完成了加固保险杠的工作
while Adam's playing in traffic.
而亚当运车运得正开心
This gives a whole new meaning to driving a car.
一种全新的驾驶感受
If we're gonna drive our truck into a couple of lines of cars,
如果我们要开着卡车穿过几排车
we're gonna need -- you guessed it --
我们会需要你知道的
a couple of lines of cars.
几排车
Did I ever tell you how much I hate traffic?
我说过我有多痛恨堵车吗
Well, now's your chance to even the score.
现在有机会扳回一局了
So, with 10 cars in 2 lines
十辆车停成了两排
and a dump truck ready to rage,
大卡车准备就绪
will there be some fact to the hollywood fiction?
好莱坞的特效场景到底有多少真实性呢
This truck weighs over 30,000 pounds.
这卡车重量超过1.4吨♥
Those 10 cars over there also add up
那边排着的十辆车
to somewhere over 30,000 pounds.
加起来也超过1.4吨♥
But the thing is, the truck's gonna be moving
不同的是卡车将会以
at around 40 miles an hour when it hits them,
每小时6♥4♥公里的速度撞上车子
So it's gonna impart several times its own weight to those cars.
产生的冲击力是卡车自身重量的数倍
And that means the truck is gonna win.
也就是说卡车的力量更胜一筹
But whether it also means that it's gonna be able
但这是否意味着它能
to move completely through the cars and keep going,
像电影里一样撞开所有车
like it does in the movies, or not,
一路前行亦或是不能
that's another thing, and that I'm not so sure about.
这又是另一回事了我就不得而知了
Well, now to find out
现在就来验证吧
by tackling this head-on collision head on.
通过正面碰撞找到问题的答案
