[Spoiler alert: Do not read on if you haven’t seen “Captain Marvel.”]
“Captain Marvel” is full of references to the ’80s and ’90s, and even Samuel L. Jackson’s Nick Fury throws it way back with an amateur tape trick to get himself out of trouble.

TheWrap spoke to Valerie Castillo and Elijah Horland from the Science Channel’s “MythBusters Jr.” to get to the bottom of it. Castillo is 15 years old and is skilled in robotics, Cad drawing and 3D printing. Horland is 13 years old and is a self-taught maker, programmer and circuit wiz.
In “Captain Marvel,” Carol Danvers (Brie Larson) and Nick Fury (Jackson) are locked in a security room when Fury takes a piece of tape and lifts a fingerprint off his badge that the security guard had touched. He then uses that piece of tape on a fingerprint scanner… and the door magically opens.
