Synopsis
Science of action is described in several different daily routine activities like sports, stunts, adventures, and things that should not be done at home. This series shows videos of people hurting themselves and explains the science behind them.
Episode 20 : Trampoline, Trick Shots and Nose Slides
December. 01,2017
Crashed ice, downhill ice skating is best left to the professionals. Trampoline drop ins can always be relied on to provide humour and humiliation. If you ignore the science, skateboard nose slides, are really going to hurt, and shooting pool trick shots, can also go spectacularly wrong.
Episode 19 : Backflips, Bikes and Burpees
December. 01,2017
Tandem bicycles, whether you are the stoker or the captain, get it wrong and you will both experience pain and humiliation. Playground equipment are always good for laughs and injury. Doing back flips into a pool is never recommended and attempting to do Burpees can be just as dangerous.
Episode 18 : Moped Wheelies, Splashless Dives and Kettlebells
November. 24,2017
Moped wheelie fails, can be just as stupid, painful and humiliating as their full size brothers. Splashless dives are possible if you know the science and agony if you don't. Kettlebells used incorrectly will dish out the same amount of hurt as any other weight.
Episode 17 : GT Sledding, Golf Ball and High Bar
November. 24,2017
A GT sled is a bike with skis for snow, and is about as useful as a bike with wheels on snow. Dismounting from a high bar in a gym with a foam mat is bad enough, why would you try it in a park with no protection. Driving a golf ball, lots of room for pain and humiliation.
Episode 16 : Roof Snow, Skateboards and Vehicles
November. 17,2017
Clearing snow off roofs or roof snow falling, can be both coldly embarrassing and hilariously funny. Stalling a skateboard is just another trick that is going to hurt sooner or later. No matter what the science is, getting out of moving vehicles, is going to go wrong.
Episode 15 : Ricochets, Vehicles and Ski Racing
November. 17,2017
Golf, the gentleman's sport, unless a ricochet teaches you all about pain and humiliation. Giant slalom, even the professionals get it wrong so any amateur is guaranteed to get hurt. Jumping into moving vehicles would seem to be a fun thing to do, until it all does sideways.
Episode 14 : Chairs, Cars and Unicycles
November. 10,2017
Spins on a unicycle is a guaranteed exercise in pain and humiliation, especially when your choice of place and time is a bit suspect. Pushing a car is not always a simple as it seems. Human bowling can be fun but it can also be pain, and standing on a chair is just not a good idea.
Episode 13 : Park Bench, Tandem Pole Dancing and Surfing
November. 10,2017
Knowing the science is important, if you don't want to injure yourself jumping a park bench, engaging in tandem pole dancing or even indulging in a spot of surfing.
Episode 12 : Dive Bombs, Push Ups and Frisbee Golf
November. 03,2017
Stacked push ups will reach a point where gravity causes pain and humiliation. Dive bombs are pretty scientific, get it wrong and it will hurt. Animals and objects are always good for humour. Frisbee golf is great fun, but ignore the science involved and a lot of agony and embarrassment will result.
Episode 11 : Bench Press, Beer Keg and Snow
November. 03,2017
Tapping a beer keg is quite often really hilarious, or humiliating, depending on which side you are on. Walking in snow is often quite painful, but also funny. You will always risk injury and embarrassment if you must bench press another person.
Episode 10 : Blindfolds, Punchbags and Waterslides
October. 27,2017
Just how many ways are there to injure and humiliate yourself with blindfolds ?. Punchbags are usually for serious training, and when used by amateurs results in pain and embarrassment, and riding an inflatable down a water slide, is not a recommended activity.
Episode 9 : Unicycle, Segway and Arm Wrestling
October. 27,2017
Riding a unicycle on flat firm surfaces is hard enough, using one off road and down hill, is a sure recipe for pain and humiliation. The forward flip into water still hurts when it goes wrong. A Hoverboard is a never ending source of embarrassment and injury, and arm wrestling your grandpa and losing is just plain wrong.
Episode 8 : Sand, Wedding Cake and High Fives
October. 20,2017
It is easy to humiliate yourself running or cycling on sand, because it is not a stable surface. Wedding cakes are even less stable, so carrying or cutting them is a recipe for embarrassment and doing high fives just to look cool, can be both painful and humiliating.
Episode 7 : Dance, Snow and Bottles
October. 20,2017
Jumping in the snow will be painful and embarrassing if you do not know the science. Dipping your dance partner in public is not wise, unless you can get it right every time, and bottle flipping is ever so much fun if you know how to get it right.
Episode 6 : Barefoot Skiing, Trays and Jumping Rivers
October. 13,2017
In barefoot water skiing, speed is your friend and waves are not, jumping a river needs momentum, balance and some science so if you lack any it may hurt, and carrying trays, is a lot harder than you would think, but not any less humiliating.
Episode 5 : Water Slides, Wheelies and Hard Hats
October. 13,2017
A hard hat is to be worn and not caught painfully on your head, inflatables on water slides are just humiliating, and trying 12'o'clock wheelies often hurt, mostly for the bike.
Episode 4 : Rally Car, Small Spaces and Hammocks
October. 06,2017
Humiliation in small spaces, real action in rally car racing, and how much does it hurt getting into a hammock.
Episode 3 : Balls, Bungee Jumping and Tether Ball
October. 06,2017
You really need to keep your eye on the Tetherball, bungee jumping can always hurt and how to humiliate yourself whilst heading a ball.
Episode 2 : Canoeing, Nets and Crutches
September. 29,2017
Trying tricks while on crutches is one way to humiliate yourself, or you can hurt yourself jumping over nets, or you can just fail whilst canoeing.
Episode 1 : Big Wheel Trike, Motorbikes and Balancing
September. 29,2017
Riding your big wheel trike is an unstable proposition, balancing stuff can hurt in unexpected ways, and ghost riders on your bicycle or motorbike.

Newton's Apple
Newton's Apple is an American educational television program produced and developed by KTCA, and distributed to PBS stations in the United States that ran from 1983 to 1999. The show's title is based on the rumor of Isaac Newton sitting under a tree and an apple falling near him—or, more popularly, on his head—prompting him to ponder what makes things fall, leading to the development of his theory of gravitation. The show was produced by Twin Cities Public Television. For most of the run, the show's theme song was Ruckzuck by Kraftwerk, later remixed by Absolute Music. Later episodes of the show featured an original song.
NPR science correspondent Ira Flatow was the show's first host, later succeeded by David Heil, then assistant director of the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry. Peggy Knapp was a longtime field reporter and served as co-host in the 14th season. The last season was hosted by the team of David Heil, Dave Huddleston, Actress and Voiceover artist, Eileen Galindo, Brian Hackney and SuChin Pak, now a frequent host and pop culture reporter for MTV. An occasional short feature appeared called "Science of the Rich and Famous" in which celebrities appeared to explain a science principle; as examples, rock star Ted Nugent explained guitar feedback, Olympic Gold Medalist skater Scott Hamilton demonstrated the angular momentum of a skater's spin, Let's Make a Deal host Monty Hall demonstrated the science of probability, and Betty White showed how cats purr.
