There's little denying “Breaking Bad” has made television history, probably because it's unlike any other shows that have been released over these past few years.

As trustworthy and reliable as Walter White might seem, something tells me the show's fans cannot help but wonder whether or not some of the “tricks” he performs would actually hold up in real life.

As it turns out, the science behind “Breaking Bad” is surprisingly true to facts.

Check out the video above to learn all about how, at least in theory, Walter White's method to start a dead RV battery is spot on.

PhD Jovana Grbic, the real-life chemist featured in the video, is courteous enough to also explain what the deal with fulminated mercury is, and even makes some comments on Walt's personality.

The video is part of Veronica Belmont's web series “Fact or Fictional.” Here's hoping you'll enjoy it as much as I did.
