9: Hobbs & Shaw-ence, with experts in immunology and medical devices
Does Brixton's heads-up display actually give him helpful information? Can you really hold a helicopter down with a tow truck? Our resident physicist Lisa weighs in on those questions and more. There's plenty of medical jargon in the spin-off movie Hobbs & Shaw, but it turns out the physics holds up for the most part! Melissa and Lisa also interview Joy Phillips and Parag Katira from San Diego State University about the virus, immunology, and biomedical devices that make up a huge part of the plot. Find out what's realistic and what's pure fantasy!
Check out Parag Katira's website and follow him on Twitter.
And contact Joy Phillips if you have more immunology questions!
And if you haven't recently watched Jason Statham dancing in a leopard print speedo while very oily, you should watch it here. Right now.
