From Adam Savage’s Tested.

In 1981, the film Excalibur debuted in theaters, and Whitney Lee Savage took his armor-obsessed son Adam to @metmuseum to see their arms and armor collection. It was the beginning of a lifelong fascination whose fruits Tested fans can still enjoy today! Join Adam as he revisits some of his favorite pieces, and reflects on how that one day shaped his understanding of handcraftsmanship and, frankly, human history itself. What museum influenced you as a child or adult?
