Default Those idiots on mythbusters...

They are trying to prove whether it is possible to robin hood an arrow. They first tried doing it themselves and then with the help of " professional archers." Finally they built a machine (kinda like a hooter shooter) attempting to prove the robin hood myth.

They should have just called me if they wanted a robin hood. Well, at least before my current bout of target panic.[8D]

I guess so. They're also trying to prove if a tissue box could be fatal in vehicle accident. Needless to say,
