Could Walter White's Trunk Machine Gun Actually Work? | MythBusters

MythBusters — S13 E7 "Blow It Out the Water" — Aired July 18, 2015 Two myths with very different origins but an identical level of explosive ambition — first taking the idiom "blow it out of the water" completely literally by detonating 1,000 pounds of ANFO beneath a real boat at a test site to find out whether an underwater explosion of that scale can actually launch a vessel cleanly into the air and back down in one piece the way the phrase and countless action movies have always implied, and then turning to Breaking Bad's series finale where Walter White built a remote-controlled rotating machine gun rig in the trunk of his car designed to fire a full belt of M60 ammunition through the walls of a house in a pre-programmed sweep, with Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan on set to evaluate whether the device his writers dreamed up could actually be constructed and would function the way the finale shows.
