That Home Depot is now known Cheyenne Mountain. He built the Stargate and explores other planets under the false name "Jack O'Neill". The more you know..
In a 1991 episode I just saw last week, an environmental activist has called for MacGyver's help. The man is living isolated out in a wasteland (destroyed by industrial pollution) and focused on showing that the big suburban development scheme by a local real estate tycoon will inevitably lead to the same kind of doom, destruction of groundwater deposits, turning the soil into a filthy mess and so on. As the guy is waiting for MacGyver to come around and meet him, following an elaborate plan (cassette tapes with instructions left in standby cars etc), he happens to step into a sinkhole in the useless soil, and when McGyver arrives he is at the point of drowning, MacGyver sees the danger and manages to pull both of them out by an autimatic haul-in steel wire attached to the front of his truck. So, when the guy has narrowly escaped being drowned in the oxic mud and they're both safe again, he comes up with this priceless line: "I knew you would come, MacGyver! I knew it when I was stuck in there...You're always on time!" :D
To all of you who have ever repaired something with Duct tape and a coat hanger, if it worked at least temporarily, the spirit of MacGyver is with you.
The original MacGyver, always the best. I love that line from the first episode of season 1 that they always use for the commercials for the show on the H&I cable channel... "Can you make a bomb out of chewing gum and a paper clip?" "Why? You got some?" I saw Richard Dean Anderson on GMA when MacGyver got going good. He said the LA cops liked the show because for a couple of hours every week there was peace on the streets. It turned out the LA gangs LOVED the show, so they'd stop all criminal activity to watch the show and then spend time talking about it. That's also where using the word "MacGyver" became street lingo. It meant doing the impossible thing or getting the impossible girl. It also later came to mean working out the typical MacGyver tricks. In fact, RDA also said that the term just barely missed out on being included in an English dictionary that came out only once every 10 years. I've even seen it used in Marvel comics to refer to ultra-secure prison cells meant to hold scientific geniuses like the Wizard. They were called "MacGyver-proof cells."
@@LOLSKU115 Yes. My mother-in-law was cooking when the pressure cook pot exploded, sending the hot food and the pot lid flying across the kitchen. Luckily I remembered my Yoga lessons and, in a split second, did a Bakasana pose to dodge the murderous contents and instantly get up like a champ. No one was hurt.
One trick I remember is MacGyver blowing up a light bulb with a squeeze water bottle thingy set to stream mode. I was AMAZED as a child and thought he was the coolest ever!
I bust a tire on my bike. Turns out the vent was leaking. Nothing I tried worked, until I thought… what would MacGyver do? So I checked my pockets for everything I had and found a lollipop. The lollipop was covered in plastic, and I put the plastic on top of the vent and screwed the top on. The plastic from the lollipop successfully trapped the air inside the tire and I could roll home on my bike. Thank you MacGyver.
do you know the Outer limits TV series? That was a quite underrated series similar as the X-Files. In the outer limits the intro was quite amazing and they also had good background music like MacGyver.
Cool, it’s young Mundo from American Me. MacGyver (classic ) is and always will be my favorite show. I remember watching Mac in the late 80’s/early 90’s as a kid
I liked this show as a kid because I was that kid that when something broke I would always take it apart to see how it worked and try to fix it with whatever I could find that would be a substitute for the original part I’ve used everything from wire hangers to shoe string to soda cans to fix something and even though what I did was meant to be a temporary fix lasted longer than expected and has never failed
What i love about this show is the creativity and possibility I myself am creative with ideas so this show gives me inspiration and creativity is all that I got.
I have a SpEd student that loves this guy! I love that he turned the class on to it. Such amazing problem solving and calming of the mind in anxiety situations. THANK YOU MacGyver!!!!❤
In regards to the realism, I can't remember if it was the producers, the directors, or Richard himself who said that they may have skipped a few steps to avoid people recreating the stunts.
Macgyver just timed the release of that bomb so it would blow up the car and everyone inside. 🤯 People kinda call that kind of thing "terrorist action" these days Mac! But... but... he doesn't use guns! And he's still my hero... 😍
I feel a bit McGyverish in a householdy way when I've used ingenuity to fix a household issue, when I made a pivot for an electric typewriter with a toothpick, a giant fabric door sausage filled with bin bags to block a cold gap under the sofa, and used a magnet glued on a broom handle to retrieve keys hanging perilously on an outside ledge, stuff like that lol. Not spectacular stuff like he does though, but just when you channel that vibe.
Richard could have made a ton of money today if he had came out with a line of multi tools and pocket knives designed by him I would love to get my hands on a macguyver edition Swiss Army knife lol
One of my favorite series when i was a kid. Along with the Knight Rider and Street Hawk :D An interesting thing though: Im a nostalgy freak so I sometimes watch these. The point of MacGyver was that he was supposed to be very rightgeous (spelling?), always for justice etc. However, name an 80s series that would be more prejudicial towards russians or east germans? It seems like half of the actors only went to acting school to learn the "evil voice", you know, where if they order a coffee its in a russian accent that just lets you know from the get--go they are going to try to blow up the town.
True but honestly, the whole world was portrayed in an unflattering way :south americans were always depicted as some corrupt revolutionary Zapatas, and asians as vicious vietcongs. I even remember an episode where French police were practicing torture in a vineyard..ahahah... you know, that was the world seen from Middle America... generally a local cute and selfless girl was there to keep the balance.
Except that most of us will not be zip tied in a factory near the docks with a bomb set to go off in 8 minutes. Only thing I learned from this video: even blonde mullets look terrible.
Sal Omon Well... you must really have a very relaxed life. I have seen myself in life or death situatios and it was the fact of using that thing we call brain that saved my life. I remember one time when I was working in a big beer factory, in which my sweatshirt got stuck in a very strong hidraulic machine, and it was a matter of seconds before it would smash and split my body in two, I had to think and react very quickly, and the solution was using random stuff that was around me to overload the machine so that it would activate the emergency and shut it down. Many other things happened similar to this, in other jobs I had. All jobs I had were in factory and warehouses, lots of dangerous machines, chainsaws and stuff, and being young and careless can lead to serious disasters... People lose fingers and sometimes entire body members, I have one uncle that lost 3 fingers because he was sleepy working with a table chainsaw...
Can you Imagine MacGyver at Home Depot ?
He'll turn it into a super advanced military base...
That Home Depot is now known Cheyenne Mountain. He built the Stargate and explores other planets under the false name "Jack O'Neill".
The more you know..
If MacGyver could see a Home Depot today he'd think our society was absolutely CRAZY for letting ordinary citizens stockpile WEAPONS OF WAR!
he starts building a 4th dimension
Lol 😂😂😂
Necessity is the mother of all inventions... and MacGyver is the father.
That would SO be the subtitle if they made a modern MacGyver movie!
🤣🤣🤣🤣

não conseguem hoje fazer serrado tão bom como Magaiver
what i always liked about MacGyver is the realism.
Ikr the car didnt explode which was realistic only the bomb
@@divine308 I also like how that same bomb was supposedly going to level the whole building.
@@applejuice5635 you missed where he mentioned that when the bomb explodes, the barrel with the chemicals would level the building.
@@plain7605 Ah damn, you're right.
actually there was a lot of hollywood in macgyver mixed in with realism. But still my childhood will never forget you mac.
To all of you who have ever repaired something with Duct tape and a coat hanger, if it worked at least temporarily, the spirit of MacGyver is with you.
well what I learned was if it moves but it shouldn't...duck tape
if it's supposed to move but it doesn't...WD-40
And May it also be with you
Yeah but the hard part is getting the duct tape😷🤭
MacGyver definitely inspired me as a child.
Duct tape is OP
The 80s was the best time to watch TV.
The original MacGyver, always the best.
I love that line from the first episode of season 1 that they always use for the commercials for the show on the H&I cable channel...
"Can you make a bomb out of chewing gum and a paper clip?"
"Why? You got some?"

You can always trust in MacGyver :)
No show can beat MacGyver and i still watch it ! :)
I'll remember all these stunts next time I'm in a near death situation. MacGyver is so inspiring 😂😂
Next time..?
@@LOLSKU115 Yeah. Next time, not this time. Understand the difference?
@@timsummers870 so u were in a near death situation

@@timsummers870 oh wow no wonder why my school always has yoga as a class, maybe I’ll use that next time I’m in a near death situation
I once heard he built an atomic bomb out of some chewing gum and duct tape
That's nothing, I once made some chewing gum and some duct tape out of an atom bomb
U need to chill
+Patrick O'Ryan Oh man, that made me laugh!
I got all chewing gum, duct tape and an atomic bomb here. What can i make?
The moons gravitational pull
I heard he once made a whole entire pizza out of dough, tomato sauce, and cheese
That's brilliant!
That’s just a rumor. I confirmed it wasn’t on any episode list.
@@Maxfli82 woosh?
@@planktontimberhill7177 Likely towards you.
actually he used a loaf of white bread, a mysterious red tropical fruit, pickle juice, fresh milk and just the right amount of heat
Damn, very nostalgic. I used to watch MacGyver during my childhood. It was big in Indonesia back then.
One trick I remember is MacGyver blowing up a light bulb with a squeeze water bottle thingy set to stream mode. I was AMAZED as a child and thought he was the coolest ever!
I was locked in my room and used my penknife to get out, thanks to using some of Macgyver's ideas.
I still do think he's the coolest
I remember that one hahaha
You were right. He was the coolest man to have ever existed.
This series is my childhood series, I used to watch and admire MacGver series back then, taking time from homework to watch the series.
I miss this guy with his tricks... He's wise and clever...
The principle of the show was very good, it was entertaining and teached kids the diy principle. It basically led me to study chemistry, no joke.
What I always liked about mac is he always had everything laying around to do his tricks lol
Right?
What a crafty and fortunate feller
Are you assuming that it was intentionally there for his benefit? How dare you 😂
The one and only Macgyver ❤❤❤ I was in grade school when I got so addicted watching this.
2:50 they walked funnily in sync for a second like some NES game characters.
lol, now i can't unsee it
All was needed was health bars with their names on top.
lmao
Lmao!
You made my day with that, so true!
Macgyver one time actually plays a NES : D Think it was the game Blades of Steel which is an ice hockey game
Thank god this building is so badly built with so much random crap lying around.
CONVENIENT random crap lying around (especially that tube slide which he used to throw the bomb directly to those guys).
He could've easily thrown it out the window too.
Wasn't that a garbage shoot?
Thank the shitty carpenters, not some fantasy figure.
Isn’t that one of those chutes they have at construction sites to throw rubble in?
The building looks like it’s renovating
I used to watch this show every week as a kid with my dad in the 80's. It's 2022 and the old man is still alive.
Buy the box set. Make it a Sunday night tradition.
Enjoy time with your Pops.
You’ll be glad you did
Death is knocking on Dads door
Always liked this TV series. Grew up in New Zealand in the 80s watching this 👍
Good
Man, I love the reverb on the drums! The 80's Rule!!!
He is very good actor thank you for sharing your beautiful video love your video thanks
I bust a tire on my bike. Turns out the vent was leaking. Nothing I tried worked, until I thought… what would MacGyver do? So I checked my pockets for everything I had and found a lollipop. The lollipop was covered in plastic, and I put the plastic on top of the vent and screwed the top on. The plastic from the lollipop successfully trapped the air inside the tire and I could roll home on my bike. Thank you MacGyver.
That's exactly how Heisenberg frees himself in an episode of breaking bad
not exacly the same way. Macgyver user heated matal
Heisenberg used electricity. way more dangerous
He was a Macgyver fan
#HeisengyverConfirmed
That was most likely an hommage to macgyver
McG stole it
Wow, Carter would be proud.
And Daniel
There should really be a MacGyver videogame!!!
Hitman
richard dean anderson has away's been one of my favourite actors.
“That’s what the president said.”
MacGyver was THE BEST! Thanks for the reminder.
MacGyver was a big hit here in Malaysia.
aus cent agreed
aus cent ฟ_ๆ
Was a big hit all over the world
MacGyver is a legend in Taiwan
In Poland too.
when i was watching this in my childhood i was like a..
"woah!! is this god??" then *jawdrops*
haha, i sneaked out of bed at night to watch the series, it was aired around 4am :(. xD
Every week, same here. Still the best show, in my opinion.
Those years were the best days on earth...
I just love the songs they used to play in the background of the movies and series from the 90's, man
do you know the Outer limits TV series? That was a quite underrated series similar as the X-Files. In the outer limits the intro was quite amazing and they also had good background music like MacGyver.
totally realistic
SoGladUCame 😂
Well, it kind of is!
Especially the bit where the police always turn up after criminal has gone or is lying unconscious on the floor.
I love how in grade 10 science class I got to watch this all the time and use science to prove or disprove these tricks
Damn, that's a good idea
“Thank you Senior Macgyver!”
“Don't thank me, thank the moons gravitational pull.”
Cool, it’s young Mundo from American Me.
MacGyver (classic ) is and always will be my favorite show. I remember watching Mac in the late 80’s/early 90’s as a kid
Stand back, that Roomba’s rigged to blow!
The absurdity of ‘80s crime oriented tv shows makes me happy 😊
I'm here because when I was a kid this was my Mom's favorite and I just stumbles upon the Macgyver TV series now lol
dead-ass!,one of my favorite 80s show cause I was 10years old and would say WHOA!,HE did that,2 thumbs up 4 MacGyver 😜
*for
AWESOME! NEVER GETS OLD!
Ah MacGyver... Legend
I used to stay up late for this beautiful series when I was a kid
Oh oh @ 0:18 that metal clothes Hanger 💡💡💡💡💡
So nice of those villains to leave them tied up by a handy vent.
Also for driving slowly and giving him time to throw a time bomb in their path.
Dang..
Dang?!
Aah broadcast TV and its use of inappropriately mild language.
As O'Neill, it would be, "Aww crap!"
McKey: Crap !
Hermiöd: What have you done ?
McKey: Passed the virus code to the translator. It's wraith!
Hermiöd: Crap indeed!
Dang!!!!
Luv the remastered sound fx
Obadiah Stane: Tony Stark built this in a cave, with a box of scraps!
MacGyver: Hold my Duct Tape...:D
I liked this show as a kid because I was that kid that when something broke I would always take it apart to see how it worked and try to fix it with whatever I could find that would be a substitute for the original part I’ve used everything from wire hangers to shoe string to soda cans to fix something and even though what I did was meant to be a temporary fix lasted longer than expected and has never failed
As I child in the 80's it was Mac and the A-Team. LIVED FOR THIS SHIT, SON!
MacGyver and The A-Team is the greatest TV crossover that never happened.
40 years later and McGrubber's still got it !!
First time I've ever seen it. I'm hooked. X
This is what i like about Macgyver. Not the new.
The guy's a freaking genius!
Always up to your tricks mcgyver
You could still watch MacGyver primetime on some parts of the world.
*الله يرحمك يا خويا عُمار وشحال كنت تحب هذا المسلسل و شخال كنت ذكي كيفه .. ان شاء تكون في الجنه و نتلاقاو مره اخرى فيها 🌝*
My husband loved macgyver growing up.now he's tryin to build a submarine
I need some toothpaste, some salt, and a lil string
The car flipped over from the explosion, but didn't take any floor damage. 😆
What i love about this show is the creativity and possibility I myself am creative with ideas so this show gives me inspiration and creativity is all that I got.
Excellent timing!
The bad guys always left enough things lying around for him to use to escape.
Nice one😊
Classic all time favourite
My favorite English mega serial MacGyver. when l was 16 Yrs old.Now I am in 53 yrs.2024
When I was kid I love macgyver till now
I have a SpEd student that loves this guy! I love that he turned the class on to it. Such amazing problem solving and calming of the mind in anxiety situations.
THANK YOU MacGyver!!!!❤
❤️❤️❤️❤️🇧🇩🇧🇩
A screwdriver and a paper towel. No problem! Mac to the rescue.
Oh, yeah, you are right, MacGyver....
Everything is fucking logic...
It's so cool that McPixel was so popular they made MacGyver as a spin-off
"THEY'RE GETTING AWAY!"
_shouts towards the bad guys_
MacGyver: Guns, Bad. Bombs, Okay.
#MACGYVERED
Awesome memories, love watching this with me Oldman! MacGyver Fk yeah!
I love this scene 💯🥰🔥👍🏽👌🏽👏🏽💪🏽
You could tell just before the mouse wheel would start spinning in his head by the music. 😂
In regards to the realism, I can't remember if it was the producers, the directors, or Richard himself who said that they may have skipped a few steps to avoid people recreating the stunts.
the new series got me interested in the old one... lol!!
The best serie of all time
Yup back then TV props were real. Real bombs, real bullets and real zip ties.
and with this trick my 5-year-old became his fan
This was so magical when I was like 8
Macgyver and A-team paved the way for Walter White.
Macgyver just timed the release of that bomb so it would blow up the car and everyone inside. 🤯 People kinda call that kind of thing "terrorist action" these days Mac!
But... but... he doesn't use guns! And he's still my hero... 😍
I feel a bit McGyverish in a householdy way when I've used ingenuity to fix a household issue, when I made a pivot for an electric typewriter with a toothpick, a giant fabric door sausage filled with bin bags to block a cold gap under the sofa, and used a magnet glued on a broom handle to retrieve keys hanging perilously on an outside ledge, stuff like that lol. Not spectacular stuff like he does though, but just when you channel that vibe.
General O Neill had a vivid youth
He had to start his military career from somewhere.
it will blow the whole biulding appart...
2 minutes later, a car upside down...
Richard could have made a ton of money today if he had came out with a line of multi tools and pocket knives designed by him I would love to get my hands on a macguyver edition Swiss Army knife lol
Can you imagine MacGyver making a domino set?! Omg it would be amazing lol 😆
I heard a rumor that Macgyver wasn't born. He built himself out of duct tape, coat hangers, and paper clips.
That's my guy! He could definitely beat a full strength Batman with prep time...

wow it looks like hes actually doing the stuff captured in real life like wow they really are breaking a ziptie with a metal heater coil
And he was doing in own stunts
we make fun with the macgyver stuff, but the truth is that some of those crazy ideas actualy can help you in extreme situations
Except that most of us will not be zip tied in a factory near the docks with a bomb set to go off in 8 minutes. Only thing I learned from this video: even blonde mullets look terrible.

I used this comment to distract a bad guy and put him to sleep while I escaped.
Hugo Santos Stop lying dude, the whole meeting girls online thing is a scam.
If Einstein was alive and see Macgyver, he would salute him with both hands and ask him to make something to meet Alien.
It's awesome that he can get out of any situation... but he really sucks at not getting captured in the first place.
Mac "make a dollar out of 15 cents" Guyver
There were really a lot of elements in that room that made it worth a try cutting the cable ties lol
