His breakthrough came as a television personality on the Discovery Channel's MythBusters, where he applied engineering chops to debunk and replicate real-world myths. As an actor and television host, Belleci represents a generation of makers who blurred the line between behind-the-scenes craft and on-camera presence. Scorpio (born October 30), he channels the sign's fixation on truth-seeking and transformation—core to both effects work and myth-busting.
