MacGyver >> Chuck Norris

Post by Supplanter »

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_pr ... y_MacGyver

MacGyver uses a board and a bunch of light bulbs to simulate the sound of a tire being blown. He uses salt combined with sugar and a small amount of chemical enhanced weed killer to create dynamite with a battery acid trigger. He also creates a magnifying glass from a hairpin and wine to read names of spies off a watch. He creates a traffic jam by jamming the timing mechanism for the traffic lights. He makes all police radios within a one mile radius malfunction by duct taping an ordinary transistor radio to a pick-pocketed police radio and sends it up in the sky using around twenty balloons.

MacGyver uses his belt (which is sewn such that it makes a leather tube) to route water from the drain trap of a sink to a wall plug to short out the electrical system and cause a distraction. He takes all of the springs out of his bed and attach them in lines, making 4 very long springs. Attaching one large spring to each corner of the bed and to the door frame, he effectively has a massive slingshot aimed at the door. When guards come in response to the electrical short, he shoots the bed at them, breaks the door, and knocks them down so that he can escape.

if you've got foxtel, this monday 9.30pm on Discovery
is the 100th episode of mythbusters.... MacGyver Myths
In the 100th episode, special effects experts Jamie Hyneman and Adam Savage
as well as their "Build Team" of Tory Belleci, Kari Byron and Grant Imahara will tackle some
of the MacGyver TV show character’s seemingly impossible escapes to see if they are actually plausible.

Hyneman and Savage will try to blow a hole in a wall using pure sodium metal dropped in a bottle of water,
while Belleci, Byron and Imahara will try to build an ultralight airplane
with raw bamboo, a small engine and a roll of duct tape.

The 100th episode will end with the "Build Team" challenging Hyneman and Savage
to a four-part MacGyver competition —
picking a lock, developing film with common kitchen liquids,
building a compass, and devising an aerial signal for a rescue helicopter
— with just one hour and no Hollywood help to finish each task.
