You know, or should know the drill by now.
If you could ask Adam or Jamie a question what would you ask? Try to think of interesting things they probably haven't been asked before, questions that they will actually answer and so on.
Please note if your question is for Adam, Jamie or both.

For either or both.
Outside of Mythbusters, what would be your notion of the ideal job to have.

For both:
Out of the many myths you've tested, some haven't been received as well by the audience as you or the other producers might have hoped.
Out of the less well-received tests you've done, which one(s) were you most surprised people didn't like and why? Also, which one(s) were you yourself most satisfied with doing and why?

Well I already asked this question & had it answered by Jamie at the Mythbusters Down Under Tour Show here in Sydney last year, so this one is all for Adam.
What's your favourite What the Hades are we doing? moment & why?

for either one of them: which myth came the very closest to going EXACTLY how you expected it to?

For either one - You have 24 hours to perfect a device to handle an invading horde (of humans, not zombies). What do you create and why?

For both:
Assuming you're told by the researchers that a myth or a way of testing one came from us here at The Citadel, which of the ones we've provided do you think we did the best job on and why? (I'm not fishing for acknowledgement, just trying to get some feedback on what we're doing right, so we can do more of that for the good of the show)

Either: Is there still a Myth you've always wanted to test, but still haven't had the opportunity to, if so, what is it?

Dear Adam and Jamie, over the years have you ever gotten the impression that there are some strange fans out there that have gotten themselves emotionally over-invested in the show; such that you think they may need to take a break from the Mythbusters? And would you want to tell them in a way similar to how William Shatner got to on SNL season 12, 'Lone Justice' 1986?  |

For both:
What's the best piece of advice either of your parents have ever given you?
For Adam:
What's the one piece of advice you've given your kids (or will give them when they're older) that you hope they'll remember when you're gone?

If you could go back in time & talk to your 18 year old self, what advice would you give yourself?

For either or both:
What is the most scared or worried (due to phobia, chance of disaster, etc) that you have ever been during the taping of a show?
We know that you both have a very strong belief in the power of STEM education for all students, how do we make teachers feel as passionate as you do about this? (Fix the teachers and the students will follow)

For either of them.
We all would like to think we did something notable with our lives....
You did.
In a long list of collectively researched moments,
You proved, for one, that two cars at 30mph do NOT make a 60mph collision force.
You proved that a Motorcycle CAN *drive* across water.
But what was your biggest "I did that" moment, if it was a world changing moment, what would you like to be known for doing the most...?
If it was the headline "Mythbusters, the team that did......"
What would you want that headline to be?.

Question for either.
Was there ever a "Hell no I wont go" moment when you decided that this just was NOT what you signed up for?..
Is it something you both decided you would never ever even think of trying?
Did that ever change.
Is there something you initially refused either on your own or collectively to test, that you ended up doing, and did it go as you expected.
I suppose there is a long list of rejected topics, either for safety or for just stupidity reasons, that you cant ever do.
But is there some that just CANT be tested because we dont have the knowledge or technology to start?...
What I am asking is, is there one you would just LOVE to do that is just impossible to try anyway thats on that list?...
For instance, I have my own goal to hang-glide of Mt Everest, I know it will never happen, mainly because of the suggestion there isnt enough atmosphere at that height to support a hang-glider....
Plus even if you could design one that would fly at that height, how to get it up there anyway?..
But that wouldnt ever stop me wanting to try that.

But that wouldnt ever stop me wanting to try that. note that the current world record for the highest hang-glide was limited by the fact that it was as high as the helicopter could go and required a headwind to take-off. (the helicopter pilot made them jump out from hover, because he didn't trust it to get clear if he landed it) |

There are many light aircraft that would have to go around Everest...
Many because thats above their safe operating ceiling, many because the pilot would need oxygen, because the cabin is not pressurised.
But heck, thats 29,000 ft....
But back to the thread topic.
Do the team have any of their own personal myths they want to try......
And what can we expect in the next series.

Ok, quick post and fly here;
Try to think of interesting questions they are unlikely to have been asked before either in interviews or by fans during their tours. For example they are both involved with tested.com, so you might want to head on over there and see the kind of things they do on there; Adam does more than Jamie, so you'd have to dig around a little more for his stuff.
I have been trying to secure an interview for a while now, well over a year in fact. I have been informed that one of them is open to the idea, I'm not saying who, but no details have been worked out as of writing. I do, however, want to be prepared.
Also note that due to heavy workloads it is unlikely that they would have the time to do a full on 20 questions interview. You might have noticed that Kari's interview was some 17 questions or so,for the same reason. And she of course wasn't a producer. So I'd be looking for the best and most interesting questions to add to my list. As always I would mention screen names if I use a submitted question.
If/hopefully when anything is confirmed I'll update you.
