一个由澳大利亚电视制作人Peter Rees开创的Discovery Channel电视系列。他发掘了主创的Jamie和Adam二人组。这是一个记录片形式的电视系列剧，大概可以划到"揭密/科学试验/特技"一类。由主持人Jamie和Adam两人为观众揭露/戳穿当代街头巷尾流传的各种“神话”的秘密。每一集的内容包含3个“神话”，内容包括各种互联网上的谣传，一些在社会上广为流传的伪“常识”，历史事件等等，但更多的还是与好莱坞电影上常见的一些镜头有关。比如：在加油站打手机到底会不会引发爆炸；电影里面的人被一群匪徒追杀，跳到水里就不会被子弹打伤，这是否可信；传说中杀人不留痕迹的“冰子弹”到底是否可行；富兰克林的风筝实验是否真实；人的叫声能否击碎玻璃；（像电影上那样）开枪能否把门锁打烂……等等。每期节目的最后会对每个“神话”题目给出“Busted（被揭穿）”、“Plausible（半真半假）”、“Confirmed（被证实）”三种评价。
