A Piece Of History



Yesterday I visited with a friend of mine, artist and strongman Tom Hermansader. Tom's father was also an artist, in fact his father painted a famous portrait of the Mighty Atom. It is always great to hear more first hand accounts of the Atom from those who knew him. Tom shared some great old stories and showed me a few pieces bent by Atom from his personal collection. In the photo is a very stout looking horseshoe that the Atom bent with his teeth! That's right, with his TEETH!
