You Can Build a Death Ray Out of a Mirror
Adam and Jamie tried to construct a death ray from mirrors that could harness the energy of the sun. They decided that the mirror would have to be impractically large, and even then, the temperature of their target was only raised a few degrees.
you are saying what we see on tv is not all true???
Carlos Hathcock killed a Vietnamese sniper known as "Cobra" by shooting straight through Cobra's scope. The scope Cobra used (an old Mosin-Nagant as I recall) had fewer lenses than the scope used in the original MythBusters episode.
MythBusters later retested and admitted that it was "plausible".
