MacGyver-Worthy Moments of DIY Genius

Life hack this. Life hack that. We're sick of seeing YouTubers display shows of completely unnecessary life hacks and crafts that nobody will use. Some examples include how to make fake braces with or a legitimately dangerous hack for making grilled cheese without a stove. These videos are straight up dumb. Instead of celebrating videos from people who really just want the clicks, why not show some incredibly crafty real-life hacks some love? These photos document the efforts of people who actually used their brains to find their own special ways of fixing shit, improving it, or simply making their lives more fun or easier. We may not know who they are, and they may not be recording their genius, but they definitely deserve respect.
