You're not wrong.

Tory (or however that fuckheads name is spelt) is ESTP
Kari ENFP but not major E.
That other guy who I can't remember the name of is INsomethingP

Yeah, I didn't know their names properly

My tips would be
Tory - ESFP
Kari - hm dunno maybe ISTP
Other guy - ISTJ, or INTP

I think Night's descriptions are pretty accurate, as far as I can tell, but...

Adam Savage - ENTP : Possibly the easiest "celebrity type" I've ever seen - don't get me wrong, I love Adam - he's bright and hilariously wacky - he's also as stereotypical an ENTP as I've seen (at least his TV persona, etc.)

I really do think Adam is an ENTP, but Jamie is totally an S. It's true. I always thought IST, for sure. J or P, I don't know, I slightly lean toward J, given that one of the great dichotomies between the two of them is that Jamie is so much more strict in getting things done.

And I know, being a J doesn't mean being orderly, but it does generally mean wanting things in control.

The ISTP guy is ISTP. The one who wears a stupid hat a lot.

The other guy, I don't know. That show is bad.

Hmm... I still think that Jamie fits in pretty well with INTJ, but he's much harder to fit to a type than Adam is. Jamie could easily be almost any IxTx type, I think (but I lean pretty strongly towards J - but... see below). He's so much quieter and more reserved than Adam is that it's hard to tell... and since he and Adam share almost all of their scenes together, it's difficult (for me) to distinguish if I'm getting a good reading on him, or if I'm just comparing him to the more visible Adam, who's so strongly ENTP.

I'd say that, in terms of likeliness, I'd call INTJ>ISTJ>>INTP=ISTP for Jamie.

Okay, Jamie's the ISTP. Have you ever had an ISTP as a friend, or worked with one? He's exactly that.

Adam's ENTP traits are like 100%, it took me no time to type him, it's amazing. As for Jaime, and contrary to Jack Flak, who is right 99.999% of the time, I think is an INTJ or INTP. He just seems to have an experimental mindset about things..maybe I don't know about ISTPs though..

Well, his job kind of calls for experimentation. But let's just start with a contrast of the two of them. Even if Jamie were an N, you must at least admit that Adam is way more N than him.

Agreed. It's astonishing to find a type that appears nearly 100%, because most people are a little bit of this, a little bit of that. Know what I mean?

Also- Do you think Jaime's Introversion disables us to type him formally? Afterall, we only know as much as the camera man reveales about him. I think this is a very good point, anyone second this?

Yeah, but we are judging from what we see on Mythbusters. None of us really know anything about his personal lifestyle and behavior off camera.
