Question: What would happen if a guy just removed his HELMET, covered the grenade with it, and held it down with his foot instead of covering the grenade with his body?
Myth: Throwing a grenade in a refrigerator to save your life
In an episode of Monk, the hero throws a grenade into a refrigerator save his life.
They changed the setup on this myth slightly as they positioned the plywood actors around the fridge. The actor in front of the fridge was severed in half and decapitated. The fridge just added more shrapnel to the explosion.
Jamie: "Out of all the options that we had, this was clearly the worst idea."
busted
Im guessing that if throwing a grenade into a fridge wont save your life, neither would your helmet.
