Can you huff, puff and blow a house in? Does toast always tend to land butter-side down? Does running in the rain get you less wet than walking through it? Can you really make a canoe out of duct tape? Spend a day as a MythBuster to uncover the truth behind the myths for yourself. And while you’re at it, watch live demonstrations by COSI's MythBusting facilitators and peruse props and gadgets from the show.
MythBusters: The Explosive Exhibition comes straight from Discovery Channel's Emmy®-nominated series, MythBusters, where wild hypotheses are put to the test in wildly entertaining experiments. MythBuster's Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman, along with co-hosts, Tory Belleci, Grant Imahara and Kari Byron, combine their expertise in special effects to relentlessly test every myth within busting distance.
Sometimes we’re having so much fun, we forget that all this MythBusting is actually SCIENCE! Follow your curiosity this summer for a chance to put the scientific method to work busting myths like: CHANGE LIKE A SUPERHERO, TABLECLOTH CHAOS, RUNNING IN THE RAIN, CLIFF HANGER and so many more!
Go behind the scenes to learn how a myth is tested, busted, or confirmed. What is this scientific method, thing, anyhow?
Bulldozers, dump trucks, and forklifts converge in downtown Columbus again this year for COSI’s annual Science of Big Machines. Get behind the wheel and operate equipment that builds roads and buildings!
Explore the science behind the oohs, aahs, and wows of fireworks, with lots of explosions along the way. Then try your own experiments and help make—and eat!—some liquid nitrogen ice cream.
In typical MythBusters fashion, we’re pushing our experiments as far as we can. In this case, we’re bringing them to your home!
