Mythbusters - Helium Raft
In the new series of Mythbusters, the team continues to investigate the bizarre claims of urban legends and modern misconceptions about all manner of things, by putting them to the test. In tonight's episode, the team investigates the myth that if you fill a raft with helium, you can make it fly. Jamie suggests starting small by using an inflatable dinghy and filling it with helium to see what happens. The next myth investigated is that the reason you can't use a mobile phone on an aeroplane is not because it will interfere with the in-flight instruments, but because it forces you to use the in-flight phone in the back of your seat. The team decide to build a cockpit with the aid of an aerospace engineer, control all the variables and see what happens to the signal. (From the US, in English)
