Tim Shaw demonstrates the incredible truth about the world around us in a series of mind-blowing experiments. The first stop is an improvised firing range where Tim shows us what item can withstand the impact of a high-tension crossbow bolt. Next, Tim uses some modified Rollerblades to see how additional wheels affect speed. Then, find out how whiskey and water interact in a gravity-defying way, and discover how to make lemons taste astonishingly sweet.

5. Crash & Burn

No release date yet

Tim Shaw takes us on an incendiary Las Vegas road trip to find out why things do what they do. First Tim shows us what happens when a truck is driven at just 35 miles an hour beneath a set of falling cinder blocks. Next, Tim demonstrates how water balloons can stop bullets. Then he uses a $25,000 hovercraft to showcase the astonishing power of hurricane-force winds, and shows what happens when two sports balls are dropped together. Finally, Tim tests the explosive potential of four cars.

4. Shooters, Showers, & Shockwaves

No release date yet

Tim Shaw investigates why things do what they do. First, Tim heads to a deserted parking lot with a group of baseball players tasked with firing baseballs at targets from a pitching machine mounted on the back of Tim’s jeep. Then Tim shows us what will happen to two party balloons in a moving van - one filled with helium tethered to the floor, and one filled with air, tethered to the roof. Tim also attempts to blow up diaper bags, and fill a car tire to its bursting point.

3. Master Blaster
