Cannonball incident[edit]

The article stated that "the cannonball did considerable property damage, crashing through the walls of a family's house and landing in their car." From the articles and video given in the citations it's rather clear that the family whose house the cannonball went trough and the family whose car the cannonball landed in are not the same. So I changed it to "in a car." 91.176.175.171 (talk) 07:30, 10 March 2012‎ (UTC)[reply]

Duct Tape Island[edit]

Did they ever say which island they were on? If so, can someone add the coordinates of the island? Woknam66 ^talk _{James Bond} 18:44, 27 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I think they mentioned Hawaii. --AussieLegend (talk) 18:59, 27 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

They did, but I don't think they ever mentioned exactly which Island they were on. Woknam66 ^talk _{James Bond} 21:43, 27 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

In the Aftershow for that episode, I believe they said it was on the island of Oahu, which gels with the overhead map image they used during the course of the episode. —MarsJenkar (talk | contribs) 17:52, 29 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"200th" episode[edit]

An IP recently added a new episode with the claim that it is the 200th episode.[1] However, the reference used says nothing about a 200th episode, so I copyedited that out, fixing some referencing at the same time.[2] The editor, using a different IP in the same subnet (obviously a dynamic address) reverted, claiming "yes it does", but substituted the original Discovery Channel reference with one from tv.com, which is not a reliable source.[3] I've left a note on the IP's talk page,[4] but as he's using a dynamic IP he's unlikely to see it, which is why I've mentioned it here. The 200th episode claim doesn't make a lot of sense, as there have already been 202 episodes, not including the Young Scientists and Busters Cut specials. --AussieLegend (talk) 16:17, 23 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

understandable, i thought the samething about how it was 202 but the source said 200 if tv.com isn't reliable…then ok peace50.128.95.174 (talk) 18:33, 23 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
