They should check the dirtiness of things like “automatic” sinks, paper towel dispensers, toilet flushers, light switches, etc…

Would love to see the rank of dirty places. Like Schools, Airports, automobiles, portable potty, day cares. Could be done statistically by people numbers yet there may be surprises there.

Did you check children’s toys at day care.

In #3, when you said that flooring the gas in the air would change the conclusion is not relevant. the ramp was the real problem.

I completely agree! The launch was entirely dissimilar, and in no way a reasonable test. They need to make contact with the water at an angle and velocity similar to that of the movie scene they’re testing.

Well, to play devil’s advocate, the toilet gets cleaned often. Therefore, the amount of bacteria one will find in a *clean* toilet will obvious be less than the light switch, shopping cart, or other items that do not get cleaned like the toilet. The myth pretty much IMO makes no sense in light of the differences.

I just finished watching this ep and I had the same exact issue. While the 2 cars may weigh the same. Their weight distribution is different due to where the engines are located. Seeing that the lambo’s trunk is in the front and engine is in the back.. It’s definitely not going to dive off the ramp
