And now .. the TRUTH [Posted on 2007-01-13]
... geez, you wonder what people are up to when they write their reviews. This is the skinny of the book: it is NOT a how-to manual, but rather a "This happened in one episode ... could it work it real life?" book. Mostly, no. Some, yes ... sort of. That is IT. Anyone who bought the book expecting to become the "real" MacGyver after reading this book is a fool. This is nothing more than a homage to the series ... really, more of a "mythbusters" type book. Read it with this perspective, and it was a funny and interesting read.

OK, but not great [Posted on 2007-05-13]
Good review of Mac's adventures and the tricks he used. For the tricks that actually work, a very basic explaination and method of performing such a trick is not described very well. Its a nice light fast read for anyone who likes macgyver. All the information found in this book can be found onine very easy with a better explaination of how it is actually done.

I should have spent my money on a pocket knife... [Posted on 2007-05-26]
Needless to say, I was Extremely disappointed when I received this "book" in the mail. It's relatively small (about 6" x 4"), and the type often appears to be 14 font double-spaced. This alone made me worry that I had perhaps accidentally purchased a "children's version," and my worries only increased when I actually began reading it. The writing is simple and full of grammatical errors (I quote page 47, "most mechanics probably doesn't get into many high-speed car chases"), which makes me wonder if the author(s) ever passed high school english class, and the illustrations are at an equal level of professionalism that resemble doodles I made back when I was twelve. Furthermore, the information presented in the book is either incredibly simple, incredibly dumb, or both at the same time.
As an avid MacGyver fan, I find myself somewhat offended by this middle-school level attempt at paying homage to one of the greatest television shows of all time, and I greatly regret having wasted my hard-earned money on it.
So please, only consider purchasing this publication if you run out of toilet paper and you desparately need to "MacGyver" yourself some out of pages from a horrible book.

Fun book [Posted on 2007-12-26]
This book is very funny and informative. Although, some things are said very sarcastically towards dear MacGyver (and his mullet). Most things you would never need to know or you would not have the things to do them with (i.e. meatlocker, straight jacket, etc.), but it's fun to read about them anyway. Great gift for MacGyver lovers or guys that like to do experiments.

Not for little kids!!! dangerous experiments!!! [Posted on 2008-02-13]
I bought this for my 12 1/2 yo son a few months ago. While recently waiting in the car for a train, I looked through it again and was really shocked. There are items that are dangerous to be in a book geared toward kids and some things that are just offensive. One experiment or MacGyver how-to gives instructions on mixing ammonia and another chemical- but oh, by the way it is dangerous. Another details how to unzip womans dress to make it fall off. Yet another involves pictures or videos (sorry, its not in front of me) and says if you get any good naked pics of females to post it to the internet.
This is BEYOND irresponsible and way beyond inappropriate for young readers.
