Re-watching old episodes of mythbusters. S2E1, they test "better to walk or run in the rain"

Their method totally pissed me off.

They had cotton suits on their body and measured the weight difference before and after.

Except the cotton suits DIDN'T GO ON THEIR HEAD.

Where is most of the rain going to fall when walking slowly and the water source is directly above your head? Head and shoulders.

So of course their findings were that you got more wet when running, as some of the water got on their belly instead of their head.

Can't find anyone talking about it online so had to rant about it here. So fucking stupid
