#54: Did We Uncover the Dumbest Bank Robbery in History?
Q: In the 1985 Arnold Schwarzenegger movie Commando, during the final fight, how does Bennett die and what pun does John Matrix say after his death?
Bennett is killed in a stylized way when John Matrix inflates him with a prop (in one retelling, a pipe and an explosive device are involved), followed by the famous line 'let off some steam, Bennett.' The answer provided on-air leaned into the idea of an over-the-top, cartoonish death.
