How much more can poor old Buster take whenever it comes to testing out a myth in "Mythbusters"?

He's been what...
1. Blown up
2. Dropped with some plywood
3. Burned
4. Flinged
5. Catapulted
6. Crushed
7. Beatened
8. Dropped in an elevator
9. Skyrocketed
The abuse!!!!!!!!!

I think they should strap him to the front of a car, then crash it via RC.

Taken a couple of drops from 2000 feet...wander just how many times that poor dummy can be repaired before its done for good lol

You have to admit, that drop on the aircraft emergency slide looked like fun. Though if it does flip your a dead man

They actually had a whole episode dedicated to Buster, and during it they rebuilt him completely. Now he has breakable wooden bones, stronger joints, and fire resistant skin. I think the only parts they kept from the old busted Buster was the head and hands.
Too bad so far I haven't seen the new Buster in action, other than the 'test' where they dropped him from a crane in a car. That time he worked quite well, especially the breakable bones (one of his arms came right off :o). Oh well, I'm sure we'll get to see him busted over and over in his new life.
Go Mythbusters!

Didn't he get attacked by sharks during the shark week episode?
