The first bionic man... walks and talks

The Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum houses the first bionic man, who wears prosthetic limbs and artificial organs and goes by the name Frank.

Frank is 1.83 m tall and weighs 77 kg and is the protagonist of the documentary made by the Smithsonian about prosthetic limbs and artificial organs.

Frank's construction cost a million dollars and consists of 28 artificial limbs – donated by a biomedical company.

British Robert Warburton, designer for the company that built Frank, jokingly stated: "Don't expect him to have the best behavior, since he was designed to have the character of a 13-year-old Ukrainian.".
