Check This Out: 'MythBusters' Attempts to Recreate 'Breaking Bad' Machine Gun Trap

Is Walter White's booby trap doable in real life?

The "Breaking Bad" finale back in 2013 scored ultra-high ratings at 10.3 million viewers, which was noted as a record breaking figure. But did the makers of the show suspend reality just to achieve that level of entertainment?

The Discovery Channel's "MythBusters" took it upon itself to figure that out, starting with that machine gun booby trap White concealed in the trunk of his car. He later used the weapon to "take out a house of white supremacists in the series finale," Time recalled.

It can be remembered that the weapon automatically swayed as it blew off bullets out of the car trunk.

"Using supplies that could be found in any small town - and with help from series creator Vince Gilligan - hosts Adam and Jamie proved that the "Breaking Bad" ending is entirely possible," the news source added.

"The duo built the M60 machine gun featured in the scene with the same equipment used on the show," Yahoo! Finance said. "They also used the same material for the wall used in the show to shoot at (with some wooden cutouts behind it representing Walt and the bad guys) to see if the bullets from the gun would actually go through the car, the wall, and hit the cutouts."

After the improvised weapon finished firing, the "MythBusters" hosts discovered that the cutouts were riddled with bullets, while the cutout laid on the ground, representing White, wasn't.

Did the "Breaking Bad" team simulate a similar scene to verify its feasibility before actually shooting it? The stunt apparently was a realistic success.

Vulture previously observed that the machine gun scene "seemed a little ... silly" and even earned "puzzled reactions." After the "MythBusters" test, it appears it actually worked.

This is not the first time "MythBusters" tested a "Breaking Bad" scenario. In fact, it's the third one that the show tested.

The first one tested whether hydrofluoric acid can eat through organic matter and the bathroom containing it (it did not). The second checked whether mercury fulminate can truly be a dangerous and effective explosive. While 5 grams of it did blow up a pumpkin, it took about 250 grams of mercury fulminate to blow up a room, according to Today.

These tests "proved that acid eating through a dead body and disintegrating parts of a bathtub and ceiling don't work out as well in real life," Time observed.
