Science Shack
Science Shack was a BBC television series screened in 2001 and 2002. It was presented by Adam Hart-Davis and produced by Leeds UK-based Screenhouse Productions. The series set out to answer science questions by performing experiments. In the first series, topics included: 'Can you walk on the ceiling?' for which the team held an inverted walking competition, with Australians taking part; 'What will we do when the oil runs out?' with the shack in Cornwall and powered by alternative energy sources; and 'Why did the millennium bridge wobble?', in which the team built a working model of the footbridge near the Tate Modern. The second series included a greater role for Hart-Davis's backup team of Marty Jopson, Jem Stansfield, Sim Oakley, Janet Sumner and Alom Shaha. Challenges this time included: ⁕Tall Buildings - in which the team try to make the world's biggest paper tower, complete with a lift, in the Millennium Dome ⁕Can I walk on water? - in which the team tries to build machines to allow people to walk on water, and for a few seconds hold the Guinness world record ⁕How high can I jump? - which sees Alom Shaha, athletes and others trying to jump over a model of the shack using only human powered devices
