One of the most powerful men who has even been alive. He does not kill people, either does he smoke, which is a technique to show hidden messages about non-using of violence, smoking, and other stuff that MacGyver rejects doing. Also, since he is not using weapons, his enemies always gets incapacitated a lot longer when he hits them in the neck, but actually he hits on the shoulder, with an attempt to add some effects, making it look like it was on the neck, but it really wasn't.
If you watch MacGyver, you will early realize that he has a girl in every town, and is impossible to kill, even though he never uses weapons. Also, there is often a 8-12 year old child, that later becomes saved by MacGyver. And the episodes always depends on the tricks, that is used by MacGyver.
The graphics and animations, are what I call: Chuck Norris material. On other words, poor and old school. Even though the few explosions of MacGyvers home made bombs (which he create in 2 seconds) are pretty bad animated, it makes you feel good. I recommend you guys to have a MacGyver night, and watch MacGyver all night. You will thank me...

In the episode "To be a man", in season 1, he makes some kind of mustard rocket, that flies on an Soviet soldier's stomach, making the soldier fly 5 meters out through the door, and somehow pointing the gun to himself, and pressing it. He instantly gets killed, by wearing a weapon - with other words, he killed himself. This is a typical MacGyver action, showing that weapons are bad.

To jimmy or rig something up so it works-ish. Not a real fix.
From the series, which follows the story of MacGyver, a laid-back, extremely resourceful secret agent , played by Richard Dean Anderson, who prefers non-violent conflict resolution wherever possible & refuses to carry or use a gun, but usually just uses his Swiss Army knife. He is a problem solver for the fictional Phoenix Foundation in LA.

Like hitting the TV (CRT) when it goes flicky. It works for awhile but not too long.
You: Oh man you got your crappy old TV working again! The picture was so crappy last time!
Me: Yeah I Macgyver'd it with a piece of wood and a good whack.

An fairytale world where the hero performs magic with everyday junk. Those of us who actually work in the real world and know what really happens when you try his tricks either laugh our asses off or shake our heads.
Did you see MacGyver wrap gum foil around that 100 amp 440 volt fuse to use the elevator, I'll bet it made quite a flash when it vaporized.

The ability to solve or fix complex problems with brains and simple items such as duck tape, empty pen tubes, chewing gum and paper clips, all in the face of danger. Reference is from the show ‘MacGyver’. (Can also be used as a noun or verb)
The fisherman MacGyvered his broken pole five minutes before he caught a monster sturgeon using only duck tape and dental floss.
