editGet your facts straight. Skateboarder Rodney Mullen appeared on That's Incredible in November, 1988.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Nominay (talk • contribs)
- Then add/edit that, fool. That's what you do with Wikipedia - instead of bitching and moaning, you do it yourself.--59.121.191.8 06:33, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Retarded
editI liked the one about the retarded kid who made awesome paper mache cars out of grocery bags; give me a break. This show was as phoney as a 3 dollar bill! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.137.245.200 (talk • contribs)
Unlikely
editIt says "one[stunt] involving a man catching a bullet between his teeth (at least six people have lost their lives attempting that stunt)", that needs a reference! Jeffrey.Kleykamp 23:35, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
I just looked at the article about the bullet catch and there where seven people that died. Jeffrey.Kleykamp 23:39, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
The only bullet-catching I recall involved a man who caught a precision-aimed .22 short not in his teeth but in a small metal box inside his mouth. He suffered minor injuries, apparently from the device cutting the upper portion of his mouth upon impact. Prior to the stunt, he commented that the shooter "had missed [before]". A shot to the face with what was probably a very underloaded charge would not likely be fatal, although catching with the teeth seems impossible -- it's just an old parlor trick as far as I know -- although I've heard of a man who supossedly caught bullerts between his thick metal dentures.

Inventions, new technology?
editNot sure if it was this show, but I have a vague memory of an early colour LCD screen, which when flipped played in reverse. They had it hanging on the wall like a picture. I also recall an episode where a gentleman was setting a record for the most cigarettes smoked at once (like two packs in his mouth at the same time), something I doubt would happen today. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.240.207.146 (talk) 12:53, 6 January 2013 (UTC)
