Street Genius

In this episode, host Tim Shaw tries some extraordinary and explosive experiments. First, he explores which material will propel a bowling ball out of a cannon. Next, he heads to the Heart Attack Grill - a place that revels in its reputation for rich, fatty foods - and shows diners what happens in their stomachs when they take antacids. At a parkour course, Tim finds out how fast a golf ball needs to fly out of an air-cannon to hit a watermelon as it's dropped to the ground. Then, watch as a volunteer tries to suck up juice through long straws from heights of up to 20 feet. Finally, Tim takes us to the desert to demonstrate what happens when thermite is placed on blocks of ice and ignited.
