Inspired by this post:
If we’re reviving everything then start with Mythbusters
What are some modern channels that do similar stuff? If episodes area available, what are older shows that might work?
Some more general examples that come to mind:
-
SloMoGuys - mostly seeing things in slow motion to see how it works
-
How Ridiculous - For a younger audience, but it fits
-
Mark Rober - Engineered stuff
Not quite related, but maybe:
Cody’s Lab. He has been building a Mars base in the Utah desert for a couple of years now, including not being able to work on stuff without a “space suit” or Robo Cody. He also does a lot of very interesting science experiments involving chemistry, engineering, and geology.
Styropyro. Very hard to describe, seriously just watch one of his videos, your mind may be blown (by lasers or very large battery arrays, who knows!)
