- "I reject your reality and substitute my own."
- ―Adam Savage
Adam Savage (born July 15, 1967) is an industrial design and special effects designer[3] who worked for ILM building ships[4] and miniature sets for The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones.[2] During the production of Episode II, Savage nearly cameoed in the film itself when a stand-in for Temuera Morrison was needed to portray Jango Fett's hand. Just as the scene was to be shot, however, Savage was called away to build something off the soundstage.[5]
He is most famous for co-hosting the MythBusters show on the Discovery Channel, along with Jamie Hyneman.[3] In 2014, they hosted a MythBusters Star Wars Special episode. Savage voiced a member of the Galactic Empire along with Hyneman on Phineas and Ferb: Star Wars.[6]
