The Myth was:
This was the fist part of the experiment.
This was the second part.
It is obvious that the myth has been proven fake since moulds had started growing on the fries. The smells got stronger each day until few days ago the part-time maid couldnt reisist and threw it away without my notice. Another possible explanation is she doesnt know how to read the word 'DO NOT TOUCH' on top of the container. Unfortunately, no photos of the dreaded mini rain forest were taken. :(
Conclusion: The myth is busted. But this doesnt mean you are encouraged to eat more fries. It is bad for health though :)
However, there are certain factors that may have caused differences between the video and this experiment:
- The surrounding temperature: it might be winter during the recording of the video, or since the experiment was conducted in the guy's office, it might have air-conditioner turned on all the time. The experiment was conducted in a enviroment of approximately 26 degree celcius.
- The humidity of surrounding
- The different preparation method of the fries: i doubt so, but who knows?
- the video might be a fake: im not sure, but this experiment is definitely a real thing.
So, Adam Savage & Jamie Hyneman, whataya guys think??? :)
