Do you remember MacGyver ? (played by Richard Dean Anderson) He was my hero when I was a child. I guess it influenced me a lot, I still like to open every device and often use what I find around to fix stuff. His attitude not to panic and there is always a solution to every problem is still inspiring for me. I know that most of his creations in the show, wouldn’t work in real life what was sometimes proved in Mythbusters and ridiculed in many jokes and graphics.
I recently watched 2 episodes on Youtube . When I was in primary school, I had every episode recorded on tapes, yes tapes, for younger readers, check VHS on wiki 🙂
Here is the photo of this one of the kind figure with custom made box, red like swiss army knife 😉
