Modern Marvels: The Erie Canal (2000)
The canal end.
Why does everyone keep saying that the Erie canal, goes between NYC, and Buffalo, NY? It actually goes between Albany, NY, and the Tonawandas, in NY. This myth needs to stop being taught. In NYC, the Hudson River is between NYC, and Albany. In the western end of the canal, the Niagara River was between, the Tonawandas and Buffalo. Typical Buffalo, NY. They try and take everything from the rest of the area. They claim that Niagara Falls is in Buffalo. When they bring up the history of any aircraft history, they mention Vitally. They also claim that the airport is in Buffalo, when it's in Cheektowaga, NY, and the Buffalo Bills are actually in Orchard Park.
Mayday: Fog of War (2007)
Bad editing.
I was watching this episode, and it showed a Sargent flying the plane. Enlisted personnel don't fly planes in the Air Force. This isn't even the first episode I saw mistakes. Another episode said that a KC-135, didn't reploy its thrust reversers. The A model KC-135, didn't have thrust reversers. Another episode, showed a hydraulic line, claiming it was the fuel line. Fuel lines are atleast 3 inches in diameter. They're research team really needs to step up their game. When I watch a show, I exprequire such a long review?ect accuracy. I've seen many episodes with these kinds of errors. And why does IMDB,
Mayday: Mission Disaster (2021)
Thrust reversers.
I worked on this model of the KC-135A. They didn't have thrust reversers. This isn't the first time if found errors in this show. That's the reason I only gave this episode 6 stars. Also, to manually lower the landing gear, you need to crank the gear down. The nose gear connection is under the cockpit, and the main landing gear connection is under the cargo deck.
MythBusters: Underwater Car (2007)
Pressure on the window.
There was a major flaw in the test. When they tried opening the electric window, the weights were pushing on the door frame. Water wouldn't do that. Water is fluid, so it wouldn't stop the window movement. It would only put pressure into the window.
NCIS: New Orleans: Chaos Theory (2019)
Pressure to one building.
The one thing, that's seriously wrong with this episode is, you can't increase gas pressure to one building, on the line. To do that, you would need to install an actual pump. It would increase pressure in the entire system. There are also mechanical overrides in the system, that can't be bypassed. A blatant error, like this, ruins an episode.
Silver Streak (1976)
Engine access.
When the conductor said that you can't access the engine, from the nose of the engine. I researched, and you can access it from the nose.
Mysteries of the Abandoned: Mystery of the Alien Base (2021)
So much false information.
There is so much wrong information in this episode. The hush house wasn't there to run engines in secret. They use that so the time, to migrate any annoying noise. Also, those mysterious bunkers, weren't mysterious at all. They stored the weapons for the A-10. Also, the A-10 didn't carry nuclear weapons. They really dropped the ball on this episode.😂
Hawaii Five-0 (2010)
Unrealistic.
I was watching the episode about the motorcycle hijackers and it is so unrealistic. They have a motorcycle jumping from one building to another when the first building has a ledge and no ramp. Then they're doing unrealistic stunts on the road while blocking traffic. With what is going on in this country right now somebody would run through them. Also they show a motorcycle lowering the landing skids on a trailer while it's moving which can't be done. You have to hand crank the handle down which takes about 2 or 3 minutes. No reality to this show at all. They also had a part where a motorcycle rode an elevator up to shoot somebody. this is before the motorcycle jumped from from one building to another.
