The top mistakes in MacGyver http://www.moviemistakes.com/tv4451 en Sat, 04 Feb 2012 06:58:00 +0000 103400 A 250-year-old sea chest recovered from the ocean floor is opened, and all its paper items are perfectly dry: the log book can be opened and read, and the letters can easily be unrolled. Highly unlikely. The chest's wood and pitch would deteriorate (salt water is extremely corrosive), and the paper should be damp and crumbly, at the very least. Even more likely, it would have become a lump of unreadable sludge. 105767 During the car chase through the desert, the rear view mirrors on both cars disappear and reappear repeatedly. 88703 When the Golden Eagle is shot with the crossbow by the man, It goes through it's wing. Later when MacGyver comes to try and take it out, it is in a different position on the bird. It is not through the wing anymore. 105769 The bullet hole fired into the red Cadillac by the bad guy later disappears. 137626 When Mac and the ambulance are running through the checkpoint at the hospital exit, when you first see the shot the stop bar is already broken off on his side of the road, in the next shot they are driving through the bar breaking it off.
