Product Description:

Don't you wish you could do all the cool tricks that MacGyver did? Now you can. The Unofficial MacGyver How-to Handbook: Revised 2nd Edition provides step-by-step instructions to MacGyver's most inventive tricks.

As viewers of the show, we had always assumed that MacGyver's tricks were fiction, the kind of stuff that only works on TV. Inspired by a rerun in which MacGyver seals an acid leak with a chocolate bar, we decided to dig up our old high school science books and find out if this stuff really works. The result of our investigation is The Unofficial MacGyver How-to Handbook: Revised 2nd Edition, an illustrated primer to MacGyver's tricks complete with scientific explanations.

We provide step-by-step, how-to instructions that unlock the scientific secrets and spy genius of MacGyver's many tricks, including: How to pick a lock with a pocket knife; How to develop film with orange juice; How to create homemade fog; How to use a paperclip to undress a woman AND disarm a missile!

Each entry includes: A description of the materials you need to perform the trick; Step-by-step instructions on how to accomplish the trick; The scientific explanation of why the trick works.

In depicting these tricks, The Unofficial MacGyver How-to Handbook: Revised 2nd Edition, offers a mix of extreme scenarios and practical applications. So while you'll probably never have the thrill of breaking into a high security laboratory, you can feel like a secret agent while you develop photos in the kitchen sink with orange juice.

Review:

I should have spent my money on a pocket knife...

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.
