He offered to leave the hand behind but the pilot would still not allow him aboard. The Sydney Morning Herald.

Your picture reminds me of the old "Get Smart" Chinese villain with a metal hand called the Claw, except he pronounced it "craw". So Maxwell Smart pronounced it that way too, causing the villain to say, "Not the craw, the Craw!".


Guess the Craw couldn't fly either.
