President Obama is slated to make a prime time television appearance in the upcoming weeks. No, not the State of the Union, but the hit Discovery show “Mythbusters,” where a team of explosion-prone pyrophiles test urban legends. The Obama episode will focus on the 'Archimedes death ray.'

The “Archimedes death ray' is the ancient Greek mathematician destroyed an invading Roman fleet by using only mirrors that reflected the sun's rays.

What are some myths that need to be busted? Here are a few we think the president should tackle.
