In 1504, a cannonball shattered the right arm of Imperial Knight Götz von Berlichingen. By all medical standards of the 16th century, his career—and likely his life—should have ended right there in the mud.

Instead, he did something impossible. He became the first "Cyborg" in history.

But this isn't just a story about cool armor. I am a Rehabilitation Specialist with 8 years of experience, and in this documentary, we are going to dismantle the myth. We look past the engineering to see the gruesome medical reality: the torture of battlefield surgery, the phantom pain, and the brutal biomechanics of wearing an iron machine on human flesh.

Was the Iron Hand a miracle of technology or a device of chronic torture? Let’s find out.
