What would MacGuyver do?

[gonefishie]

"He made a tourniquet from the shirt he was wearing. At first, he used a hacksaw blade, and then a larger blade, The Associated Press said. He was almost done but couldn't make it through a bundle of nerves, and he remained trapped."

Did anybody see this? http://www.aolnews.com/nation/artic...-do-before-trying-to-cut-off-his-arm/19518866

I'd try to cut the damn furnace first. This dude has lot of guts but he's no MacGuyver material.

Not what that guy did, that's for sure.
But this guy is stong willed for sure. He just might get his own show.

I think MacGuyver would have destroyed the boiler to get his arm out. Sure this wasn't a scene out of one of the "Saw" movies?

If I read right I believe this guy noticed his arm was infected, and by hacking his arm, slowed the infection from entering his bloodstream.

It stinks though that it took 3 days for anyone to check up on him in his house.

If it were MacGuyver, I'm sure there would have been a bomb in the boiler.

A life-threatening infection in that short amount of time? Hardly seems likely.

In addition; it was not like he was in the wilderness where no one knew where he was. The house looked to be in a suburban setting. Mailman, other people would surely be coming by.

I don't mean to be cruel, but it sounds like the guy is a few fries short of a happy meal to have done what he did.

Re: What would MacGuyver do?

I agree.^^^^ I think I could have held out hope for rescue a good bit longer than he did.
