For The Scouts

Here I am getting ready to roll up a frying pan for the scouts at day camp.

He Broke A What?

This morning I performed for a local community center. The crowd was great and we had a lot of fun. My presentation was a combination of the feats of olde such as horseshoe bending and even breaking a shoe, as well as some modern classics - which included wrench bending and pan rolling. I would like to say thank you to Deb for scheduling my appearance.

Are you looking for entertainment that your guests will never forget? If so, you can contact me at chris@strongmanchrisrider.com to schedule an appearance and witness first hand the art of the oldetime strongmen.

Rolling A Frying Pan

In the mid 1990's, Grand Master Strongman Dennis Rogers introduced the feat of rolling up a frying pan. Now I mean REAL frying pans, not bargain store junk - and I mean ROLLING.

To accomplish this, it not only requires very strong wrists to initiate the roll, it also takes a powerful grip to hold on to the slick non-stick surface.

Notice how tightly the 10" name brand pan pictured is rolled. This is one of the many feats I have learned from the Grand Master himself.
