      In South America too! In Argentina, 2 kids brother and sister, jumped of the roof to prove their friends they were bionic... they broke their legs but survived.

    Now looking back may be I might have tought I was the bionic man .look where we are now with technology we can now rebuild you when you crash into things

    I always thought the Six Million Dollar Man was Rubbish BUT Good Rubbish. shallow characters, predictable plots, but very watchable. The 1970s TV seemed to be full of "Good rubbish" TV shows. Starsky & Hutch, Charlies Angels, and many many more. All kind of crap but so watchable even though the characters and the stories were pretty poor. People say Steve McQueen was the king of cool but I reckon the real king of cool was/is Lee Majors. Of all the good rubbish TV shows, I reckon the Six Million Dollar Man was the best one. I loved it as a kid and still enjoy watching it now. Me and my wife still say: "We have the technology" when considering how to repair something in our house.

    the upper arm has no hardware beyond the metal structural "studs" but in 1973 who gives a damn, right ;) They have such arms now, but not nuclear powered as fission is fickle. demonstrated many times in both Steve Austin's and The Bionic Woman's plight in certain stories. Now if we had fusion... We coudl do it in real life and safe as a grandmother playing checkers in her wheelchair(or out of it)...

    • @bcbock
      @bcbock 3 месяца назад +1

      Also, when Rudy Welles shows Steve Austin the arm, it’s not finished. I think this is the model from the first pilot. But yeah, it was just foreign enough to most people to show it was an electro-mechanical device. The actual logic of it didn’t matter that much, such as how could he run that fast without his bionic legs flying off of whatever they were mounted to. Or how could he lift heavy weights when the weight from the arm would be transferred to his shoulder, spine, hips, which weren’t bionic.
