Irreverant, amusing, and always entertaining, ExperiMental travels the world in search of the craziest experiments ever performed and challenges the scientists responsible to repeat their bizarre experiments in front of the camera. Although the experiments may seem silly, many of them have played an important role in genuine scientific research and some of them have ultimately led to surprising scientific breakthroughs or real world applications. http://www.tv3.co.nz/Programmes/Reality/ExperiMental/tabid/531/Default.aspx?showid=3D15315 Impact (PGR)
