Re: MythBusters and HTF...
I thought they missed a bet on pancaking the compact
without the rocket sled. Several versions of the myth I've run across (including an illustrated version) specified that the car was not in line with the trucks, but at right-angles to them. (Disabled and without lights in the middle of an intersection.) Thus it was flattened in a way that a car being crushed front-to-back. along the strongest part of the structure, would not have been.
But rocket sled was really cool.
