“Breaking Ordinary” is a docu-reality show that follows people who want to put their skills, vision, and even playfulness to the test. The show is not simply about inventing, it is also about taking something ordinary and breaking it through to new dimensions.

Since the beginning of time, mankind has never stopped evolving. We are constantly challenging ourselves to break limits and reach new levels. Faster, higher, stronger...and sillier?! This show features everyday people, craftsmen, and companies who go above and beyond to create the unthinkable and achieve what was seen as impossible.

Watch what happens when a manufacturer re-invents its pitching machine and tries to make it throw a ball as fast as possible. In another episode, a stone-sculptor and a water pump specialist collaborate to make a 'Manneken Pis' statue that will spray water further than any Manneken Pis ever before. And watch how a company who specializes in manufacturing Velcro tape tests the durability of its tape by seeing how many cars it can pull at one time.

With their pride on the line, they will plan, experiment, fail, get back up and push themselves to achieve their goal. And it's up to their incredible imagination and skilled hands to make it happen.
