Who do you think would win in a fight between Bill Nye and Beakman? Let’s say we give them 10 minutes time with unlimited raw resources to construct something to aid in the fight.
My money’s on Beakman, I think. He’d probably just ask to borrow Lester the Rat’s socks and throw them at Bill so he’d pass out.
Bill Nye is straight up legits… I just saw him in an episode of Numbers a couple of week ago. Beakman lives in box somewhere… seriously, has this guy done anything else?
Bill. Let us not forget that he was the Chief Scientific Advisor for BattleBots Season 1. If Beakman tried a single thing, one kick ass battle bot would swoop down and destroy him.
Beakman was a bit odd, but Bill was the straight up legit. If I was building a nuke, I know that Bill would be the first person I talk to, not Beakman.
Bill Nye in a walkover. In his Seattle days, he was a pretty serious cyclist. I found one cite that he completed the Cannonball twice. That’s Seattle-to-Spokane, 275 miles, crossing the Cascade Mountains and then Eastern-Washington desert, in one day.
Beakman gets tired after the first 20 seconds, and then Nye owns him.
Beakman is portrayed by an actor. Bill Nye is an actual scientist with, like, degrees and stuff.
If he so desired, Bill Nye could ride his A-12 fighter jet and blast that pretender Beakman off the airwaves with his hydraulic pressure resonance suppressor.
…Bill Nye was a local Seattle actor who was a featured player on “Almost Live” a sketch comedy show produced in Seattle for the Northwest market. Bill Nye “Blank” Guy was a long running bit on the show. Bill Nye Single Guy is the one I remember at this moment. He also played characters like Speedwalker a super hero who… ah you get the idea.
That Bill Nye is a real, real real-type real scientist, blows me away. I thought he was maybe a science geek who had used that to base a character on and then it took off from there.
It was a long standing debate with a friend of mine whether or not Bill Nye enhanced his hypnotic package of jumblies during the Speedwalker close-up slo-mo sequences. But dammit, straight or gay, you just couldn’t tear your eyes from the screen!
I don’t know who might win, but I know who I’d root for.
Having met the man, I can say without reservation that Bill Nye is a serious jerk. I’d like to see Beakman…or anyone for that matter…pulverize that asshat.
