Jamie Hyneman

When I was in school, shop class was where the kids that weren't good in anything to do with books went.

I was a problematic kid, to be sure.

As far as I'm concerned, raising the bar or encouraging kids in large numbers to be interested in science, I can't think of anything I'd rather see happen.

In my case, the only thing to note is if I show up at home at an unusual time, it's cause for raising my wife's blood pressure because it only happens if... usually that involves stitches.

If you get the question right, if you really define it, then the answers are just sitting there waiting for you. And it's something a little different than people usually think.

Occasionally, you know, a myth is specific with a certain model of car, you know, like a Corvette or whatever. And so we end up spending some cash on those.

We are seeing robotics creep into all areas and become accessible, where it used to be something tedious that only the most persistent people could access.

I'm sort of reluctant to celebrity.

Terry Gilliam has directed some of the best examples of what I like to see in a film - one of them being 'Baron Munchausen.'

Neither of us were experienced hosts on television. But the show seemd to moved in the direction of our characters, the way we approached things. It evolved around us and the things we think are interesting.

We got a lot of gay fan mail when the show first started. Something to do with being in San Francisco and being a big, burly guy with a big moustache. But we're both happily married. To women.

I'm like a race horse attached to a freight wagon.
