Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and his assistant Beaker of Muppet Labs not only explain gravity, but perform field experiments that mainly consist of dropping things that satisfyingly smash to pieces. And who better to assist with such experiments than Adam Savage? They are trying to recreate Galileo's Leaning Tower of Pisa experiment, more or less, and make their point in the first half of the video. That involves dropping a tugboat on Beaker, but it's an animated sequence, so he wasn't hurt- that time. The rest is nonsense, but a lot of fun, as the three TV scientists channel David Letterman and come up with more and more things that are just fun to drop and smash. What else could you want in a science show? Savage even tries to hire Beaker away from Honeydew, which sets up more mayhem. You might not learn anything about gravity that you didn't already know, but you will enjoy the glorious mess they make.

At first I thought it said The Muppets Explain Gravy. I would like to see that, too!
