Adam Savage's Tested is a channel hosted mainly by Adam Savage (born: July 15, 1967 (1967-07-15) [age 57]) a special effects expert and television personality most well known for presenting the Australian-American TV show Mythbusters with Jamie Hyneman.

Personal Life:[]

Savage married Julia Ward on September 11, 2004. He has twin sons from a previous relationship. He wears hearing aids in both ears due to congenital otosclerosis.

In the late 1980s, Savage lived at Eighth Avenue and Carroll Street in Park Slope, Brooklyn. He later moved in with his parents for less than a year, working for a graphic design firm in Manhattan. A close friend who was living on Broderick Street in San Francisco asked him to become his roommate, and Savage moved to San Francisco in August 1990. He continues to live in San Francisco.

Savage has publicly stated that he is an atheist. In a YouTube video dated 14 December 2020, Savage stated that he had married 20 to 25 couples over the course of 25 years, and implied that he was an ordained minister with the Universal Life Church, a group whose only belief is "Do that which is right".

Savage has a lifelong interest in costume making and cosplay: "I remember my mom getting me a Jaws costume when Jaws came out… and wearing a Batman costume. Back then, everyone dressed up as hobos." He strives for authenticity with his costumes. While in high school, he and his father made a suit of armor out of aluminum roof flashing that had seven hundred rivets. "I wore it to school and passed out from heat exhaustion in math class. I woke up in the nurse's office and the first thing I said was 'Where's my armor?'" In June 2020, Savage's younger sister, Miranda Pacchiana, filed a lawsuit against him, alleging that Savage repeatedly raped her when they were both children. Savage responded, "While I hope that my sister gets the help she needs to find peace, this needs to end. For many years, she has relentlessly and falsely attacked me and other members of my family to anyone who will listen [...] I will fight this groundless and offensive lawsuit and work to put this to rest once and for all." The siblings' mother came to Adam's defense, stating, "It makes me very sad to say this, but my daughter suffers from severe mental health challenges, and it's devastating that she's putting Adam and our entire family through this. Adam is a good man, and I support him completely." The lawsuit was settled through mediation on May 24, 2021, and dismissed on May 25, 2021. Details of the settlement were not made public. Pacchiana removed her original blog post about Savage, which had precipitated the lawsuit.
