Fun With Gravity



Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and his assistant Beaker of Muppet Labs not only explain gravity, but perform field experiments that mainly consist of dropping things that satisfyingly smash to pieces. And who better to assist with such experiments than Adam Savage? They are recreating Galileo's Leaning Tower of Pisa experiment, more or less, and make their point in the first half of the video. The rest is nonsense, but a lot of fun, as they channel David Letterman and come up with more and more things that are just fun to drop and smash. Savage even tries to hire Beaker away from Honeydew, which sets up more mayhem. Isn't science wonderful?
