Feats of strength eh. Well I have punched a metal drainpipe till it was flat, punched through a cupboard door, and managed to crack (not shatter) tempered glass. Yes, I was an angry little youth. I have also survived the 50 rounds black-belt sparring needed for a brown belt karate grading, after 2 hours of kata and other kumitae. Never did the black though, big respect for those that made it through that shit (100 rounds).
Recently, well I haven't done a lot, but last week I just did a pretty damn steep 30km hike over 2 days up into the forests and villages of West Java. That was quite insane, got the nasty blisters to prove it too. Life changing stuff, I'd like to do some more of it, still seems like chicken feed compared to those Racing the Planet or Ironman fellas.

High five ************ you are part of the club here is your customary t-shirt.OrenjiJusu said:
It is a fake t-shirt you must dream about.
Man this club sucks.
Earlier this month I had to be up early in the morning and since I wasn't able to sleep decided to hit the gym. 6 hours later and having thrown up twice I felt more alive than I ever have in my life... I was also unable to move for a couple days after but it was still fun.
While I never wear shorts (Like ever), I always wear short sleaves, even in the winter. Although, that might change this winter just because I found some long sleeved clothes I really liked, but I have plenty of tolerance for the cold. I prefer colder temperatures.Meatramen said:Feats of strength... I was so ready to post my entire list from WoW.
Okey, but to be serious, I got nothing special, which is what I like... However among my friends they usually keep calling me immortal since during the winter, I still keep wearing shorts and T-shirts because I am more tolerant to and that I love cold. So, that and being the computer guard during Dreamhack since I am the only one among my friends who do not sleep when we are there...
That is about the best I can do. And I like not being special.
I don't really have any feats of strength. Like at all, I suck...
I think the biggest accomplishment of strength I ever did was...
well I am a 115lb girl, and after a lot of training, I was able to push almost 400lbs on the leg press at my gym.
I was pretty proud of that

I completed a similar challenge in which I chugged a two liter of Mountain Dew in less than 5 minutes. There was a video of it, but it got deleted before it could makes it's way to youtube sadly...
I'm a breakdancer. Not a great one but a decent one. I am also rather heavy set.
One day our group had an outdoor perfomance thing, make up our own routines and come and try not to make an ass of yourself or end up in a body cast by the end of the day.
It was raining, The huge mat we were using was slippery.
I messed up the beginning of my set so I tried to improvise into an elbow freeze(That's when you use your right forearm and left hand to do a handstand)
Slipped and endded up doing a trick where I'm supporting all of my weight on just my right elbow.
I hold this move for 10 seconds, How? I don't know, I just felt in equilibrium, then did a front flip from there in beat with the song.
Honestly, I had no idea how I managed to pull that off, especially considering how bad my set started out, but people have been asking me to pull that off again

That sounds vaguely familiar from my life years ago. You wouldn't be military would you?questionnairebot said:
On topic I haven't really done anything that impressed myself, but I did recently get shown up by my fiance's sister's boyfriend, the guy picked up a clothes washing machine and carted it into my new house like it was a box of packing peanuts.
After a full day of birthday fun for my eldest son, I held our 8-man tent together from 11pm - 6am on a coastal hillside during gale-force winds and driving rain on Monday allowing my wife and kids to sleep. That involved creating ad-hoc windbreaks using cars, double-pegging guy-ropes, hourly patrols to re-peg, standing in personally as the third main strut for three hours at the peak of the storm to stop the other two struts collapsing - and then a 4 hour drive to get the family home the next day. Still tired now. I'm not so young anymore.
