"Popular Program Gives Marines/Blue Angels The Chance To Strut Their Stuff

The results of an experiment filmed on a Yuma training range to test whether a sonic boom from a jet would shatter glass is scheduled to air June 10, 2009, at 9 p.m. EST on The Discovery Channel. In February 2009, popular television show “Mythbusters” teamed up with the Blue Angels and the air station to conduct the test in a section of the Barry M. Goldwater Range used for supersonic flights."

“Our role is to represent and promote the Navy and Marine Corps in the best possible way,” said Dunkelberger. “An event like this is a great public relations opportunity. If we can inspire someone watching the show to think about joining the military, then the Blue Angels have done their job.”
"So was the myth busted?
Viewers will have to wait until the episode airs June 10, 2009, at 9 p.m. EST on The Discovery Channel, to find out."
