Oops, Mythbusters shatters windows

Ah, the joys of a television show that is both beloved and highly flammable. Apparently, Mythbusters was filming a segment on explosives when they used a tad too much ammonium nitrate. When it was set off, it caused panic in a nearby town and shattered windows.

It sounds like in the end no one was hurt, and the show is paying to replace the shattered windows. Still, it is a reminder that even entertainment can be hazardous in our day and age.
