did not perform well on my dive. Ultimately, I walked away from a huge opportunity to film Titanic due to my safety concerns w/ the

platform. There's more to the history and design of Titan that has not been made public - much of it concerning.

! First discovered in 1898, the badly damaged mummy of the so-called “Younger Lady” sits in the Egyptian museum. Through 3D imaging and forensic reconstruction, she lives again.

Of all the weird and wonderful things that have happened to me in my career, perhaps nothing tops this: my inclusion in the Yeti Museum of the Expedition Everest attraction at Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
At the start of the quarantine, I shared my goal to get back in shape. A month later, I’ve lost 23 pounds & counting. Celebrating this morning’s weigh-in w/ a pre-dawn, socially-isolated jog. Anyone else who wants to jump on the

The mummy revealed. What a stunner. The world’s first look at a 2,500 year-old burial of a high-priest of the Egyptian god Thoth. To viewers around the world who joined us tonight LIVE - thanks for being a part of the team.

What Will Smith just did at
#TheOscars
is an absolute embarrassment. I’m so happy my kids weren’t watching, because I’d struggle to explain how a professional meant to be at the top of his craft could interrupt a celebration of filmmaking to physically assault a comedian.
Only 12 men walked on the moon. Only 4 are still with us. What an honor to spend some time with the great Charlie Duke last night at The

Happy 77th birthday to the one and only Indiana Jones himself - Harrison Ford (it’s not the years honey, it’s the mileage). Thanks for a lifetime of inspiration, and here’s to many more adventures to come! Drink up.

Sad to hear about the passing of Alex Trebek. It’s hard to imagine the television landscape without him - a true gentleman host the likes of which we won’t see again.
@Jeopardy
is a nightly reminder that knowledge and facts are worth celebrating; Trebek was a master of the form.
So great hanging with
@TomHolland1996
and
@markwahlberg
. Between the three of us, we have two Oscar nominations, a BAFTA, and a Hertz Gold Plus Reward Membership. It’s not important who has which. The point is, there’s some serious star power in this photo.
Not even sure how to explain this. Crew & I just missed our connecting flight for no apparent reason. Got to the gate early...sat there...then the plane left. Didn’t see it board. Nobody paged us. So. Hopefully we can make an episode of

"Daddy. This makes no sense."
"Why?"
"The glass slippers didn't disappear."
THE GLASS SLIPPERS DIDN'T DISAPPEAR.
To those questioning why people would dive to Titanic: the ship has fascinated the world since the night she sank. It's a time capsule to another era of our history. It takes courage to make a trip like this. Admiration and prayers for the passengers aboard

Matthew Perry was ruthlessly funny. His jokes felt like they sliced off the edge of a knife. To those who grew up with FRIENDS, he was just that: a companion who always filled the room with wit and joy. Thanks for the many laughs - they will echo on.
Just…WOW. Thanks to every single one of you for being a part of this team. Expedition Unknown would not exist without you, and we will continue to keep a seat open so you can ride shotgun with us on every adventure!

@StreamOnMax
I’m about to embark on a challenging, new adventure, and I could use some team members by my side. I’ve put on a lot of weight on over the last year. 200 days on the road brought with it a lot of pre-packaged food and stress-filled eating. Today, I’m making a change. (cont.)
In case you’re wondering if you just saw me changing my pants curbside at JFK before stuffing a mud-stained safari shirt into a trash can…let’s just agree that it was probably somebody else.
China acknowledges balloon but says it's a "civilian airship that blew off course." Nothing to see here, folks. Just an old man and a Boy Scout trying to get to Paradise Falls.
Flooded pyramids, pirate treasure, lost temples, Biblical mysteries, vanished aircraft… On May 24th, the adventure continues!

My condolences to the family, friends, and countless fans of Grant Imahara. His accomplishments as a talented engineer, host, and beloved member of the

“Exhibition Unknown” was a short lived series we did about mysterious museum displays. There was also “Inhibition Unknown” which was too hot for TV, and “Expiration Unknown” in which

The plot of this Wonder Woman movie is like my toddler trying to describe a dream. "And then...there was a magic wishing rock...and a jet behind the museum...and Mom turned into a CAT." Ok buddy. Go back to sleep. Shhhh.
I’m truly bummed to see that many TV guide listings aren’t showing that there’s a new episode of

From my table to yours. Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you’re in the company of people you love and feel the warmth of their love in return. And if you find yourself alone or struggling today, that’s ok, too. Life is hard, so don’t be hard on yourself. I’m raising my glass to YOU!
Starting next Sunday, I’ll be hosting 5 nights of

A broadcasting pioneer has signed off. Larry King brought his boundless curiosity (and suspenders) to more than 50,000 interviews; I'm honored to have been one of them. He was the rarest of talents: a talk show host who loved to listen. Rest In peace, sir.
If there’s one location from
