Outrageous Acts of Science: Series 5 Forget everything you thought you knew about science -- ``Outrageous Acts of Science proves that testing the principles of physics, chemistry, biology, and engineering isn't confined to just laboratories anymore. The fast-paced series scours the Web for the best self-appointed scientists whose homegrown research -- mind-boggling experiments, extraordinary inventions and jaw-dropping scientific stunts -- has gone viral. Hour-long episodes count down the best clips, supported by a team of actual scientists who analyze the principles behind the backyard shenanigans.

[edit] Like A Boss

Find out how to do it like a boss. Features a record-breaking butt skipper, a woman restraining four motorcycles, and the fastest downhill bike ride ever. These guys reveal the very best of human ingenuity and perseverance by doing it like a boss.

[edit] Is this for Real

We separate science fact from science fiction. From a woman who walks on water and a man that pumps up inner tubes with his ears, our experts ask "are they for real?," and expose the internet's best tricksters.

[edit] Man vs Nature

We're pitting Man vs. Nature. When a glass-breaking gorilla and a speed-racing sea lion face off against a snowman in the desert and an underwater wheelchair, who comes out on top?

[edit] Epic Skills

We countdown the clips that show off the Internet legends with the most epic skills on the planet: the world's most incredible skin, the world's first tattooing toes, and a speed flier that lands inside a moving cable car.

[edit] Homemade Hotshots

We're counting down the most amazing -- and dangerous -- home experiments! We're mixing electricity with swimming pools, racing supercharged golf carts on the dragway, and setting off homemade gunpowder to finally crown the top homemade hotshot.

[edit] Wild Rides

In this episode it's not the destination that counts, it's how you get there. And the stranger the better. We're snowboarding in the clouds, quad bike riding with a koala, and looping a car in a sphere.

[edit] Brain vs Brawn

In this episode mind and body go head to head as we pit Brain vs Brawn! We're smashing fruit with a 9-inch nail launcher, building and destroying a giant sandcastle, and kissing cobras.

[edit] Killer Builds

We're displaying mechanical marvels and eccentric engineering as we count down the best builds on the web. Showing off a seafaring super car, bees that can 3D print, and the jet powered wings that make man fly.

[edit] Face Palm

We're turning epic fails into epic wins! In our search for the most cringe-worthy clips on the Internet, we witness a close call with a humpback whale, a plane that flies with circular wings, painful ant bites, and a glow stick explosion.

[edit] Shock and Awesome

Prepare to be shocked as we count down the most surprising and unexpected clips on the internet. There's a communicating crow, a super speedy tractor, a silly putty axe, a monster crane lift, and a surfing motorcycle.
