Outrageous Acts of Science - Season 5

Season 5

Episodes

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.

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.

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?

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Facepalm
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.

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.

Revival
Revival is set on one miraculous day in rural Wisconsin when the recently deceased suddenly rise from their graves. But this is no zombie story as the "revived" appear and act just like they once were. When local Officer and single mother Dana Cypress is unexpectedly thrown into the center of a brutal murder mystery of her own, she's left to make sense of the chaos amidst a town gripped by fear and confusion where everyone, alive or undead, is a suspect.

The Morning Show
Nominated for three Golden Globes®, this unapologetically candid drama looks at the modern workplace through the lens of the people who help America wake up. Pull back the curtain on early morning TV.

Grantchester
Eavesdropping on the life of Sidney Chambers, a charismatic, charming, crime-fighting clergyman, and his partner in crime Police Inspector Geordie Keating, became a highlight for the audience who revelled in their on screen partnership. Geordie's plain-speaking, down to earth approach to policing complemented Sidney's more gentle technique of coaxing information from witnesses and suspects. Their unlikely pairing became a true friendship as each offered a different insight into the crimes they unravelled.

Mayor of Kingstown
Mayor of Kingstown is set in a small Michigan town where the only industry remaining are federal, state, and private prisons, the story follows the McLusky family, the power brokers between the police, criminals, inmates, prison guards and politicians, in a city completely dependent on prisons and the prisoners they contain. It is a stark and brutal look at the business of incarceration.

The Ark
The Ark takes place 100 years in the future when planetary colonization missions have begun as a necessity to help secure the survival of the human race. The first of these missions on a spacecraft known as Ark One encounters a catastrophic event causing massive destruction and loss of life. With more than a year left to go before reaching their target planet, a lack of life-sustaining supplies and loss of leadership, the remaining crew must become the best versions of themselves to stay on course and survive.
