How to Magically Bend a Horseshoe With Your Bare Hands!

Thursday, February 12th, 2009 – running time 08:10
Watch Brian make you think he can use his bare hands to bend a horseshoe and to roll a frying pan!

Welcome to your Junior year of Strength School, our third special episode, designed to teach you how to FAKE your way into (almost) duplicating the feats of the world's strongest men. As before, your guest co-host and teacher is a former world-champion arm wrestler and 100% genuine strongman: Dennis Rogers. Dennis has appeared on dozens of TV shows, holds numerous world records, and has been called "Pound for pound, the world's strongest man".

...and lucky for us, he gets ticked off be all the strong-man fakers out there. Ticked off enough to share the secrets used by cheaters to fake authentic strongman feats.

In today's episode, we'll not only see new feats from Dennis, but use nefarious means to show how YOU can (almost) duplicate his feats!

Oh, and if you actually want to BE strong, make sure to check out Dennis' instructional DVD's at dennisrogers.net. He has trained thousands of people to develop phenomenal grip strength, and (probably) can do the same for you as well!

Episode 48 - Bend a horse shoe with your bare hands! [Discussion]

Watch Brian make you think he can use his bare hands to bend a horseshoe and to roll a frying pan!

Watch and get scammed.

This videos are cool, but it's kind of like watching professional wrestling. Some of it's impressive, but you know the whole thing is a sham. What would make these segments even better is a way to use them in real life situations.

So, anyone figure out a way to work this into a conversation?

Easy. You just approach someone you don't know, whip out your frying pan, and ask, "Hey, wanna see something cool?"

I don't know if you had added this on to the other strength school episodes, but I liked the special twist added to the intro.

Those frying pans are thin and flexible. I knew that when he he picked up the lighter one. Notice he didn't bang that one on the floor? Learn to see the gimmicky parts. Brushwood teaches that all of the time. Plus, I had learned from comedians all the time how to use misdirection, only with words.

Back to the frying pans. I used to get hit in the head with those all the time. They did bend and all, but the guy hitting me would step on it to flatten it.....then hit me again. Didn't hurt too bad and made a great, loud noise with little damage done. Lotta great memories. Well I am told. I don't remember much. I am beginning to understand why.
