Street Genius

- Season 2

(2015)

Tim demonstrates several explosive experiments that answer questions like what happens when you drop liquid oxygen on a burning barbecue, what is the fast way to seal a tire, what happens to a bottle when air is sucked out of it, what happens when you add yeast to hydrogen peroxide and detergent, and what will break safety glass.

The start of episode 2 in downtown Las Vegas NV. The hot dog contest is the highlight of the show, where four hungry eaters go at it :) The host Tim Shaw and features the dynamic talent of Travis Lance Sosa. GET READY FOR SOME HOT DOG EATING.

Tim looks at the power of pressure and examines questions like what makes for the strongest fire extinguisher, how far can a vacuum sealed person walk, how to get a hard boiled egg out of a bottle, what happens to water when you remove air over it, and can a piston create enough kinetic energy to trigger an explosion.

Tim Shaw heads to a deserted parking lot with a group of baseball players tasked with firing baseballs at targets from a pitching machine mounted on the back of Tim's jeep -- which will be speeding past the targets at 35 mph.
