*I don't think I have to tell you how much this conversation meant to me.* Adam is a font of wisdom, and I'm honored and delighted to call him a friend. Make sure to watch the other half of our collab! kzbin.info/www/bejne/aaKye5Shoqpqhs0

[@wonder_platypus8337]

I don't think we have to tell you how much this meant to us. Felt like I was sitting there with a lot of what you said. You asked and discussed pretty much everything I'd have wanted to, and the depth of his responses were amazing.

[@koloblicin9721]

Keep it up Kyle, if nothing else you have the same infectious enthusiasm for learning that Adam has. Do what comes naturally and you're sure to make an impact.

[@yoshiman9521]

i know you dont like hugs normally. how did you feel with THE Adam Savage?

[@daniellore9781]

Mate, I love this so much. I enjoy you both so thoroughly, and to watch you both ruminate on your careers and relationships, and so much more, is such a pleasure and is incredibly insightful. Thank you for sharing your skills, insight, and gifts with us, and for sharing your story. Who am I to say this, but it makes me so happy to see you do so well in this life, and I wish you continued success and joy.

2 of my Science heroes, together once again. Beautiful

[@qpSubZeroqp]

Amazing conversations and I basically feel like Kyle does when he talks about being affected by someone. I also work on my own art (or try to when I have time and the luxury and the space) and feel the same excitement way you say you mentioned about discovering something new when doing project after project. Unfortunately the industry I feel I would love to just do project after project like you do isn't very friendly to accepting requests from unknowns to have remixes of their original music. My first one that I tried to do was rejected and that hit pretty hard, so I did kinda put that passion on the back burner because of it. Regardless, thank you for having this conversation and for your previous recent videos where you mention your excitement for learning new things! You both are my inspiration for always wanting to learn something new even if I won't every get to do it myself

[@jasonpavlich8579]

I thank you for your sharing your sharing with Kyle, you are decidedly different, and yet so much the same... I have a "chicken or egg" question for you both: What comes first... doing or learning?

[@dcypherd]

I had always wondered how Jamie got on television as he is not the traditional television tv personality. He had a shop that was ready to go and that was the reason he got on TV. Fascinating.

[@salt-emoji]

"you should never meet your heros" unless it's Adam Savage because he's a gift to humanity.

[@pr0xZen]

I'm not quite so sure this saying covers such a vast expanse as it once did. These days a lot of "our heroes" engage _a lot_ in bidirectional audience dialog, and with screentime not being so incredibly finite and costly, they engage and tell their stories far more off the cuff. And there's so much more view into their person and mind through reflection and banter. All this to say, there's of course some truth to the idea still - but overall, I think today we usually have a much fuller and neuanced picture of who and what our heroes really are. So meeting them is not nearly as high risk. This is an area in which the age of general public internet access, online /digital publication and social media has truly enabled great changes.

[@SpaceSoups]

Or Mr Hill.

[@boygerboy2286]

My response to this saying these days is as always "Pick better heroes" if that is truly how someone feels. I love both these guys and everything they stand for ❤

As far as impact goes, Adam has had a significant impact on my younger years, but Kyle you had an impact on my choice of switching from a desk job to a science teacher! I am grateful to you for reintroducing purpose into my life 😊

[@kylehill]

Best praise I can possibly get -- I'm sure Adam would agree. Thank you for sharing that with me.

[@miinyoo]

KZbin isn't known for its quality comments but this one is amazing. In fact, Kyle, your comments feeds are remarkably civil and I'd chalk that up to your simply doing good work and attracting the right people. Best of luck Sabine. I'm sure you'll deliver the same great passion to your students.

[@treyreppe4348]

Teaching is one of the most rewarding and difficult things you can do. Bravo man! I dont have the patience for it but both my parents are teachers and I hope to one day get my PhD and teach engineering at the college level after some lab experience (currently just starting my career at a desk 😴)

[@Fosi94]

Wow ❤

[@thejuiceweasel]

Man, what I love about Adam is how very much he is in the moment, for every single person he talks to. He never gives you the same spiel twice, so very time there's an interview with him, it's something new and interesting. Great video Kyle.

[@KickstandOptional]

Grant's passing was a real kick in the butt for Adam.

[@AkaAka_AkaAka]

Dude this... the genuine nature of him as a person not just a pubic figure is awesome.

[@bloodgain]

In a few videos on Tested, he's talked about when and why this changed for him. Basically, though he loved meeting fans, the meet and greets after the Mythbusters tour were completely exhausting. He figured out that by not pulling back and trying to distance himself from the people, if he gave into it, not only did it make the experience better for them, it made it better for him, too. The time flew by, and it stopped being exhausting. So he's just absorbed it into his being now.

[@KeeperElora]

Hey kyle I just wanted to let you know that you help keep pushing forward when I feel like my autism holds me back. You help me remember that despite the issues I can face I wouldn't change a thing. Thank you for the inspiration.☺️

In 2014 a friend of mine called me up and asked me if I could build a catapult. My first thought was "no, if course not." Then she told me that she was hosting a planning party for a cub scout day camp and asked me to come join in to see if there was anything I could do to help them. At the meeting she showed me a blueprint for a small 24" catapult that she wanted the webelos to make and it was such a simple design that I thought "yeah, I can do that." Then she said that she needed 30 of them and i started laughing out of fear because it was a bigger job than I thought I could handle but she assured me that she just needed them measured and cut and that the boys would be doing the assembly with my supervision. I messed up a few of the cuts and I miscalculated the structural integrity and had to replace one of the pieces with a stronger support but after the boys finished assembling then and had their firing competition they were so happy they wanted to skip their pool time and come play with the catapults they built. All the parents came up to me after camp and told me that I was their kids' favorite part of camp and they couldn't wait for next year's camp. I swear I was high for 6 months after that. The next year I was so excited I told her not to even ask if I was helping again, just tell me when the meetings start. We had an avengers themed camp and I built a captain America shield, angry angry hulk hands and secret boxes and never once thought I couldn't do it.

I may have actually been in that audience with you, no joke

[@kirstenb3845]

I grew up watching Mythbusters, and later, as an adult I started watching Kyle's videos. It's really awesome seeing these two meet!

[@dogsfromthecity]

Kyle, one thing that really surprised me on your conversation of how you wanted to make an impact. And I always imagine that 'making an impact' is not something you could measure or be aware of. You have no idea how how much impact you made in MY life, someone you don't know. And you only know NOW because I am telling you. And all I wish for u, is to keep being awesome and curious, and keep cultivating an exploration mindset to people of all ages. :)

[@travisjgood02]

Kyle, what Bill Nye and Adam did for our age group, you are doing for the Kids in my daughter’s age group. Keep it up man, you’re making a difference in the world.

I met Adam once in the pantheon in Rome while on vacation. I didn't talk with him very much because I was scared to bother him but my god he seemed like such a nice guy. His smile is so genuine and you could I could really tell how much he admired the beauty of the building.

[@Lordn_HighMaster]

'I reject your reality and substitute my own'.. one of the greatest quotes of my childhood. Adam Savage influenced the course of my life. Love you man.

[@fluffiestsugar]

One of my favorite things about Adam is some contrast that he has to other famous people. I've heard of so many other people, when talking about the experience that made them famous, they always say how much they hated that thing. They hate that it's the only thing that people want to talk about, they talk about how every day of that experience was miserable, etc. But when Adam talks about MythBusters, it's always about how grateful he is that he had the opportunity, and how even though there were challenges and bad days, he loved every minute of it.

[@rDunfee]

The amount of people Adam has inspired with his craft is simply staggering, me included. I love seeing two of the people that get my brain juices flowing and give me the drive to make my own stuff talk and these 40 minutes FLEW by. What a great and heartwarming video.

[@patrickcollier7090]

To Adam's Coda, the author and KZbinr, John Green, often talks about how a novel is only his until it is released into the world, at that point it becomes a part of a community who will ascribe new and different meanings to the work and will even build off of or transform the work in new ways. That is both the most scary, but also the most wonderful part about releasing your art into the world.

[@TomMinnick]

Adam is truly genuine. It really reminds me that similarly, I recently read Dave Grohl's Auto-Biography. My big take away from it is, it really does seem that the dude just loves everything about all music and making it. He's not making (and never has) made decisions about how to optimize his path to success metric, he just follows his passion and the rest falls in line. I think that quality is what makes the greatest communicators and artists into legends.

[@arioch2004]

I've always liked listening to Adam speak but this shows how great he is. It is awesome to hear his stories, especially how humble he is when he is talking about his impact on other people and how much he wants to see other people succeed. I also think my new favorite quote is "I was not skilled enough to complete this when I started, and I figured out how to complete it while I built it." As a lot of times I don't start a project because I don't know how to finish.

It's amazing how many of the tech/science channels I watch pretty much owe their existence to Adam. The man is an inspiration to so many people in so many fields.

What an amazing conversation! I'm with you Kyle on not having an exact person you are talking to but more of an idea or concept (which may translate to talking to yourself). It's crazy to see two ppl who inspire me and see a lot of myself in your conversation. Thanks to you both and keep doing what you do!

Two of my favorite minds in the world having a long unscripted discussion? Have I died and gone to heaven?! Great watch Kyke & Adam! Keep being amazing!
