Episode 1Terry's Criminal Minds43 min
A murderer tries to kill his final victim as the car they are in slowly sinks to the bottom of a lake. The only way to save the victim is to rescue her as the car continues to sink. We test fire multiple handguns underwater to see if you can actually penetrate a car windshield and save the victim.
Episode 2Shark Go Boom43 min
In this iconic scene, Chief Brody hangs on to his sinking boat as a giant shark approaches him with a scuba tank lodged in its mouth. We construct a giant shark on a motorized platform to test if you can hit, and explode, the tank with an M1 Garand rifle while perched in a precarious position.
Episode 3The Good, The Bad and Terry43 min
In this classic western, Clint Eastwood - aka Blondie - saves Eli Wallach from the hangman's noose three separate times by shooting and severing the rope that he hangs from. We recreate each scene and test the reality of these shots.

John Rambo's ability to decimate enemies all by himself has created some of the most incredible weapon stunts in Hollywood history. We test the reality surrounding these iconic scenes from this blockbuster franchise.
