learn to raise just one eyebrow
Better, faster, stronger...

When I was seven, Steve Austin (Lee Majors) was my inspiration. I yearned to be special, just like the Six Million Dollar Man. I realised sadly that no-one was going to let me crash an experimental aircraft (“we can rebuild him”; how I wanted to be rebuilt…) No one was going to give me two shiny new bionic legs that would go tink-tink-tink as I leapt from tall buildings. Then one summer’s evening, just after bathtime, as the opening credits rolled, I saw my chance! Steve Austin could raise one eyebrow, and so could I! I was special too! Mr. Austin, if you’re reading this, your bionic eyebrow changed my life!
