Busted, Confirmed or Plausible?
Today, I had the pleasure of attending the the highly anticipated MythBusters-The Explosive Exhibition as the Ontario Science Centre. The exhibition features hands-on, interactive experiences for guests of all ages by combining scientific facts with innovative, family-friendly displays. Lets take a look at the design.
The exhibition includes live demonstrations on topics like flight, friction, gravity, speed and of course explosions! Not only Jamie likes Big Booms, so does Liquid Design Studio.
There is plenty to explore in the exhibition. Begin your journey by exploring the Blueprint Room and discover the real-life operations room of the MythBusters’ iconic set. Filled with gadgets, props, video and, of course, blueprints used by the hosts to explore the myths on the show.
Next up, the Workshop. This is the place where guests turn into the real investigators and use real science to test myths. Does toast really always land buttered-side up? Do you get more wet running versus walking in the rain. Find out by experimenting yourself and taking a walk through the exhibition’s rain chamber!
Last up on your MythBusters journey, is the LIVE MythBusters Demonstration Stage. Here you have the opportunity to view and participate in live science demonstrations and dissect myths with the help of a team of energetic MythBusting facilitators. Want to test your reaction time with a paint ball coming at you full speed? Find out if you need .1 seconds or .7 seconds to dodge the “bullet”. Another fun experiment in that area is the Tablecloth Chaos. Experiment by pulling a tablecloth out from under a set of dishes without spilling anything. Seriously, SO FUN and worth the laughs of people passing by. This exhibit has so much more to offer and if you’re a fan of the show you will definitely enjoy this great design.
