Looking for a new guilty pleasure tv show? If Tosh.0, Jackass and Mythbusters had a three-way baby, it would be National Geographic UK's new show, The Science of Stupid. Each episode centers around a couple of stunts, like doing backflips, roundhouse kicks, bike jumps or skateboard grinds. Each segment starts with a handful of videos demonstrating people failing at doing the stunts often with hilarious results, and then progresses to a discussion of the physics of the stunt, why the stunt failed and the correct way to do it. The show lets you laugh at stupid youtube videos and is at least somewhat educational at the same time. Throw in a snarky british commentator and the result is more watchable than it has any right to be.
You can see videos on youtube and also there is a version in Spanish
