Talk:List of MythBusters pilot episodes

First appearance of Kari Byron

I've again removed the "First appearance of Kari Byron" nonsense from the first episode. She may have been seen as a bystander in a walk-through, but this does not constitute a "first appearance" by any normal meaning of the term. If it did, then anyone who also appeared, in fact anyone who has ever been caught on-camera, could be recorded as having a first appearance in this manner. Interestingly, Byron herself has stated on TV, on more than one occasion, that her first appearance was in the second pilot episode, so even she doesn't believe she was in the first pilot. --AussieLegend (✉) 11:19, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

(That was myth tested about the health scare about The Tin Man's early actor who supposedly died or got sick due to the aluminum paint of the costume. Kari Byron was the test subject for this myth, but she turned out all right.)--This needs to be rewritten, because the "Tin Man's early actor" Buddy Ebsen (of The Beverly Hillbillies fame) did in fact get sick from the silver paint, an allergic reaction to the aluminum dust, and had to be replaced by Jack Haley. [1] So it was true that he got sick, not supposedly, if not for the reasons of asphyxia as tested in the myth. --98.252.228.87 (talk) 03:27, 29 January 2015 (UTC)
