lifesnotfair Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 That looked SOOOO casual to you.... my goodness. I see your underhand arm has a bend in the elbow... does this not risk a bicep tear? Just curious! Would hate to see you get injured! You are truly awe-inspiring!!!

lifesnotfair Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 How this thread has not gotten hundreds of replies and thousands of views is just beyond me. This is an epic video. Just EPIC. I cannot even fathom the strength required to do this. With Mr. James overall body strength and, mainly, his middle finger strength, I have no doubts if he ever goes to Austria and competes in this sport, he could perhaps do quite well.... http://www.tz-online.de/bilder/2012/08/12/2456529/751054303-fingerhakeln-3W09.jpg http://www1.wdr.de/fernsehen/aks/fingerhakeln100_v-ARDFotogalerie.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisJames Posted September 17, 2013 Author Share Posted September 17, 2013 Hello Arturo, Thanks for the kind words . I can't lock my right arm out , an old Judo injury , that's why it's bent looking ! Tromp van Digglen the manager of two of the strongest men of all time , herman Goerner and Maxick , recalled that Maxick even at a body weight of only 140 lbs was confident he would beat anyone at finger pulling , even Herman Goerner !! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Roussin Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 I read that Maxick even challenged Goerner to an armwrestling match, but the event never materialized. Both were unbeaten in the sport during their careers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
