These operate at a wavelength of approximately 10 micrometers (infrared) and are thus invisible no matter how much smoke is in the air. As a side note, the episode states that the laser is a carbon dioxide laser. After seeing the smoke, he smashes a pair of binoculars, removing a prism to deflect a laser beam back to the emitter and destroys it.

MacGyver uses a pack of cigarettes and smokes several of them to generate smoke and blows the smoke to the lasers.However, if MacGyver had rigged it so that it shot out but shot something with it or shot against something and pushed back along with him, this could work. This is kind of iffy as the bent tip could close off all the airflow of the flare gun, causing it to explode when it is shot. MacGyver makes a 'Rocket Thruster' by hitting a flare gun with a rock, launching him and a man he rescues off of a mountain where he later releases a parachute and makes a swift getaway.MacGyver rigs a machine gun with a cord, string, stick, and matches so that when the string burns through the machine gun falls and is triggered by the stick and begins firing (while still being held by the cord).

MacGyver shorts out a missile timer with a bent paper clip causing the timer to stop, thus keeping the missile from detonating.

Season 1 Pilot (1x01) His ingenuity is normally put to the test under dire circumstances with little time or specialized resources with which to work. Demonstrating resourcefulness, he employs his knowledge of science, technology and outdoorsmanship to resolve what are often life or death crises. This is a list of problems that have been solved by Angus MacGyver.
