Was macgyver that good ?

Just thinking seeing Macgyver is back on free to air
was he that good ,,now we can look back on it

Shit yeah. You just have to stop thinking when you watch it and just be inspired

He did something with some caulking compound that turned into a super glue , Legendary stuff
Oh plus he broke a globe from a lamp and used the fillament to pick a lock on a door to get out.

Nothing is impossible :-)

saw him make a welder out of a coat hanger and a torch battery

How can you even ask the question, of course he was that good.
Who else can make a hand-grenade out of a pine cone and sap.
Everybody still uses the term "Macgyver it" when having to come up with an unusual fix for a problem.

I was thinking the same when i watched it the other week... When i was a young lad he could do no wrong.. I have tried to watch a few episodes but i have to turn it off after 5mins.... It is shocking.

Nah, Mythbusters keep trying his so called solutions and he doesn't cut it.

Ah yes, without macgyver we wouldn't be able to say "magyvered it"!!

In the first episode MacGyver plugs a sulfuric acid leak with chocolate. He states that chocolate contains sucrose and glucose. The acid reacts with the sugars to form elemental carbon and a thick gummy residue.
This was proved to be correct on Mythbusters.

I think Burn Notice was like an updated McGyver, more about improvised explosives & no one ever got hurt.

After reading wine makers' big trip thread I'm thinking he and his push may well be the Khazakstani version of Macguyver.

Wonder if they got the series on the box over there?


Edit:- Kazakhstani sorry wine maker

I think this is meant to be here John.

100mtrs long,,,,,He then hit the throttle as we watched the plane slowly[go with it] make its way
down the clearance towards some trees, ,,,,hold your breathe next time the planes going flat out
and up up and away, amazing, then to land he had them foam up the runway so the wooden front wheel
wouldnt catch fire,,, believe it or not he landed it all safe and sound,,,,,,Macgyver what a guy,,,,,,lol
