S3 Ep13
10.0
Diet cola and mints! A fun experiment that's even more awesome when maxxed out. Air pressure bubbles through this episode, including marshmallows in a vacuum chamber, pulling an egg into a flask and carbonating pickle juice!
S3 Ep12
10.0
Air is a fluid, just like water. That means you can surf it if you make a tumblewing. Phil explores lots of different methods of flight all while maxxing out the tumblewing.
S3 Ep5
10.0
How do you max out a dome made of gumdrops and toothpicks? Well, how about trying to build one with oranges? Still not good enough? How about pumpkins!? Phil also gets the record in maxxed-out cup stacking.
S3 Ep4
10.0
Making a maxxed out spinning top is just the start. Phil experiments with the Magnus effect, gyroscopic precession, pushing string and Da Vinci's perpetual motion wheel.
S3 Ep3
10.0
Starting with a small, syringe powered hydraulic arm, Phil maxxes things out by learning how to use the mechanical advantage of hydraulics to crush stuff!!! Plus: Filtering water, the Archimedes screw, hydro dipping and more!
S3 Ep1
10.0
Phil builds a maxxed out Rube Goldberg machine and learns a lot about different kinds of forces. Gravity, potential energy, kinetic energy, chemical, electrical you name the force, we've got it in this episode!
S2 Ep13
10.0
Bending light to your will! Phil gets challenged to use light to solve a puzzle that gets more and more difficult.
S2 Ep12
10.0
Building an arched bridge! Starting with sugar and ending with something strong enough to walk across – it’s all in how you build it. Plus: a giant house of cards, glass so strong you can hit it with a hammer and exactly how many eggs will support Phil’s weight!
S2 Ep11
10.0
Static Electricity! That’s what’s behind lightning bolts, whether they come from the sky or are made in the lab using the power of science! Plus: Phil harnesses the power behind lightning to make things stick, float, or make your hair stand on end!
S2 Ep10
10.0
Phil builds a balloon powered car in the lab. Then he tries to make one big enough to ride. Can the Science Max build team find a big enough balloon? Or are balloons the way to go? Plus, Newton’s Cradle out of bowling balls, how Guinea Pigs got their name and Newton’s 3rd Law.
S2 Ep3
8.0
Defying gravity is Phil's mission, but maxing out a hoop glider proves to be harder than it seems. Plus: an egg drop with a pumpkin, hovering helium balloons and more anti-gravity fun!
S1 Ep1

S1 Ep2
10.0
14th Sep 2015
Phil starts with a Popsicle stick catapult. Then he uses everything he knows about elastic energy to build a full-size catapult that hurls pumpkins! Plus, a maxed out paddle wheel boat and a historical re-enactment (sort of) of how catapults were used in medieval days.
S1 Ep3
10.0
21st Sep 2015
Phil starts with a balloon powered hover disc, then tries to make a maxed out version big enough to ride. In fact, why not make two and then race them! Phil also tries to use the power of friction to climb the walls and even to fly.
S1 Ep4
10.0
29th Sep 2015
Ever wanted to build a bridge out of pasta? It's not too hard and works better than you'd think. But what if we were to try to make a pasta bridge big enough for Phil to walk across? Plus, learn how to build a sandcastle you can stand on!
S1 Ep5
10.0
5th Oct 2015
Magnets have poles - when you put opposite ones together, they attract. But when you but the same ones together, they repel. Could we find magnets powerful enough to repel each other and float Phil off the ground? Plus, watch magnets defy gravity all on their own.
S1 Ep6
10.0
12th Oct 2015
What makes boats float? Tinfoil doesn't float, but a boat made of tinfoil does. It's all about how you build it. Watch as Phil builds his human-sized tinfoil boat wrong several times before he figures it out. Plus, Phil gets into a tub full of the main ingredient in diapers. Why would he do such a thing? For Science!
S1 Ep7
10.0
19th Oct 2015
The old 'vinegar and baking soda volcano' needs an overhaul. What happens if we use 60 times as much? What about using 100% acid? What about even more reactive chemicals? Plus, Phil coats his whole outfit in hydrophobic spray and gets in the pool. Will he stay dry? Find out!
S1 Ep8
10.0
26th Oct 2015
Learn how to use air pressure to make your own, home-made rocket out of a plastic water bottle. Phil maxes this out by using stronger bottles and even over-pressurizing them and finally by building a giant rocket out of plastic bottles. Plus, we blow up a bottle with liquid nitrogen and crush a steel drum using nothing but the air pressure around us every day.
S1 Ep9
10.0
2nd Nov 2015
What good is Science if you can't use it to give you super strength? Phil does just that using the power of simple machines to move, lift and roll a machine he could barely budge otherwise. Plus, lift yourself with one finger and watch cavemen discover the wheel.

Solid, Liquid, Gas and all the things in-between. What's in between? Cornstarch mud. Sometimes it's a liquid, but sometimes a solid. Phil fills a giant trough with it to see if it's solid enough to run across. Plus, giant rock candy, giant bubbles and a giant sledgehammer made out of a frozen pumpkin.

16th Nov 2015
Start by learning how to fold the paper airplane that won the long distance record. Then Phil tries to make a giant paper airplane to see if it will still fly. Turns out, its way harder than you'd think. Plus, terminal velocity and indoor tornadoes!

23rd Nov 2015
How can you balance a potato on a stick? And, more importantly, can Phil balance on a tightrope using the same science? What's better for balance, staying put or using something that spins? Phil walks the tightrope then designs a gyroscopic stabilization backpack.

Phil builds a small drag racer in the lab that uses the inertia of its wheels to move. Then he tries to max it out. The final experiment involves a jacked up car and a large frame with Phil riding it. Plus, Newton's laws, pulling a tablecloth without breaking the dishes and a caveman trying to break down a door.
