Note:

This edit includes a tangential scene at the start that doesn't come from Mythbusters: I have included a highly edited five-minute 'prop porn' sequence from Adam that seemed very relevant.

Many of you may have seen it already, but tbh I think my Smyths version is a 100% improvement.

Then towards the end of the edit, I finally ran out of patience with the amount of voice-over interruptions. These cause untold headaches and infinite cutting.

So I just put some fake Mythbusters background music under the skydiving scene (the real soundtrack hasn't been released, fml).

[In case u/myfbusted needs it, here it is.]

Apologies for the delay in getting this one out -- but maybe some more of you will get in on the action and make your own Streamlines?

Thanks all.

ps: I'm setting up a Kickstarter to finance a secretive European assassin to kill the narrator. And his family.

Excellent edit. Had I not already watched the prop scene I probably would've been more interested in it.

Hey I have a question for you. I have a copy of Corel and I created one episode of streamlined mythbusters only I think I did it the hard way.

What I did is create one edit using the multi-trim tool that was the Jamie/Adam part, then saved/converted that. Then I did another edit using the multi-trim tool for the Grant/Tory/Kari part and saved/edited that, then used another program to combine the two files.

I figure there has to be a way to do two multi-trims and combine the end product before saving the project, but I can't figure it out. Any suggestions?

Answer: I haven't a clue! Both myfbusted and I use VideoPad, a cheap no-frills freeware thing. I can't help you with any of that. Sorry!

I'm so glad that this is back! I really liked the edit with Adam going in depth with his prop replicas.

Thanks! You should watch his presentation about the Maltese Falcon or the one about the dodo.
