Since Adam and Jaime appeared on the CSI episode confirming the test made by Nick, I thought the result of testing the myth last night wasn't surprising. I mean, they wouldn't do a cameo role on CSI two years ago and put their reputations on the line if they knew the science on that scene was bogus.*

This episode made me think that the episode is somehow a build-up for CSI - that science is really the foundation of the show and not all are just myths. And also, if MythBusters wants more episodes, they should outlive CSI and test every scene that seems to be just for Hollywood only.

I really want them to test the french-fry foam of NY and the vaporizer of Miami.

The one Miami one I'd love to see them test is if they could actually get usable DNA from the tube that feeds oxygen into a scuba mask. At least I think that's what Delko did. Sadly the only part of that scene that stands out in my memory is Natalia going "Good job Aquaman" with that smile of hers. This is why they need to give Eva La Rue more dramatic scenes on the show; when she's smiling I can't focus on the story. ;-)
