WATCH the BEHIND THE SCENES: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MG3VNLWzJm8&index=2&list=PLiyjwVB09t5yXCYpZkOgxO9dV-XJypmNj Could You Survive The Movies?: Mad Max is a science film that explores the science behind what you see in movies; specifically George Miller’s modern day classic, Mad Max: Fury Road. Host Jake Roper (me) takes you on an immersive ride through the world, blending scientific exploration with narrative storytelling. The episode follows Jake as he attempts to avoid capture by the Immortan and her horde while simultaneously testing the viability of surviving Fury Road and all the challenges it presents. Jake’s experimentation runs the gamut from determining if it’s possible to survive being strapped to the front of a moving car to finding out what would really happen if you got caught in a movie sized explosion. In addition to practical experiments, Jake dives into the science of the world…from how humanity could end up in a post-apocalyptic wasteland, to where to find water, to using live humans as blood bags. It’s equal parts entertainment and education all while celebrating the incredible film Mad Max: Fury Road. 0:00 Could You Survive Mad Max? 1:18 Nuclear War 3:36 Blood Bags 6:19 Gasoline 8:03 Debris 12:17 Movie Explosions 17:28 Extreme Temperatures 23:17 Water ***LINKS TO ADDITIONAL READING*** Global Consequences of Multiple Nuclear Explosions https://atmos.washington.edu/~ackerman/Articles/Turco_Nuclear_Winter_83.pdf Regional Nuclear War https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/2013EF000205 Plasma Separation from Blood https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20565382 Introduction to Fuel and Energy http://eyrie.shef.ac.uk/eee/cpe630/comfun1.html Effects of Horizontal Acceleration https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4306901/ Blast Wave & Fragment Velocities https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1002/prep.201600073 Blast Overpressure http://www.dtic.mil/dtic/tr/fulltext/u2/a347634.pdf Desertification https://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Features/Desertification/desertification2.php BP Fuel Study https://www.bp.com/content/dam/bp/en/corporate/pdf/energy-economics/statistical-review/bp-stats-review-2018-full-report.pdf Groundwater and Surface Water https://pubs.usgs.gov/circ/circ1139/
