In this episode, Steve Austin is sent on a mission to recover a stolen that has fallen into the hands of a group of terrorists. The device is hidden within a "moving mountain"—actually a massive, disguised mobile transport vehicle. Steve must infiltrate the heavily guarded mountain to prevent the terrorists from using the technology to trigger a global conflict. Critical Review & Highlights
The episode (Season 5, Episode 12) of The Six Million Dollar Man (known in Spanish as El Hombre Nuclear ) is a classic example of the show's blend of Cold War espionage and high-stakes bionic action. It originally aired on January 29, 1978. Plot Summary
By Season 5, the series had firmly established its formula. While this episode delivers the expected slow-motion running and "na-na-na-na" sound effects, it also leans heavily into the espionage elements that made the character of Steve Austin more than just a superhero.
If you enjoy the of the late 70s, this episode is a treat. It captures the transition from the grounded sci-fi of the early seasons toward the more "out-there" plots that defined the series' end. It’s a solid, middle-of-the-road entry that showcases the OSI's reach and the versatility of Austin's bionic upgrades. AI responses may include mistakes. Learn more
