It seems like Roald Dahl may have been onto something after all: if you hurt a plant, it screams.

    You misremember it a bit. They saw “activity” when the thing was connected to the plant. Then they moved the plant into a steel container and the readings stopped. They hypothesized that they detected something like vibrations from a busy street etc, not a plant “screaming”.

      It’s been years since I’ve seen it, so yeah that’s probably right

        Mythbusters episodes are all over YouTube free for everyone. Just a little FYI in case you feel nostalgic

              Huh, for me, that link redirects to https://www.youtube.com/MythBusters, which displays this:

              Maybe it’s not available in Canada?

                Could be geoblocked. There’s another channel too somewhere. Cold try googling it. Or setting VPN to somewhere in EU
