This is in reference to of course the original and not the remake. This show really doesn't need an introduction, as it's one of the most iconic tv shows of the 80's.

I was flipping channels and came across a classic repeat of the series and it was good of course. It comes down to the end of the show and Mac is trapped in a room or situation where of course his life is in danger. Most of the time there is someone he's there helping to save, and they are freaking out asking how are we getting out.
A bomb with a countdown timer is usually present as well.

When all hope is lost the music starts playing in the background and that's when Mac finds items(lol, which just happened to be there by the way) he needs to save the day.

After watching and reflecting on said episode it made me question if all the legendary things that Mac did on the show would have been possible. He pulled some crazy shite out of his arse. I mean he accomplished many unbelievable feats with that Swiss Army knife of he's lol. What do you think?

I never watched McGyver much when I was a kid. Not sure why really either, because I feel like it would've been kinda up my alley...I just didn't. I've seen an episode or two at friends' houses I guess though, because I vaguely remember things about the show. But I never watched on my own. Kinda wish I would have.

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 (proved to be correct on Mythbusters).

There was a science teacher at my high school that would give extra credit to students that could either replicate or prove a MacGyver feat. There were a few students that got extra credit for doing it.

They did a Mythbusters- which I never watched after season 1- and they claimed that pretty much everything MacGyver display was feasible- at least in theory.
