Celing too low can't see airplanes

Siegmund colpuck was born in Poland into an Orthodox Jewish family of blacksmiths. Facing continuing challenges from other strongmen and relentless anti-Semites, he was determined not to defame his people. This inspired him and made his astonishing acts of strength even more sensational. His feats included, bending iron bars around his arm in floral patterns, biting through iron chains or pulling them apart, and lifting a baby elephant while climbing a ladder. Unfortunately, while on his last tour of Europe, Siegmund was hammering a railroad spike with his bare hands through a 5 inch oak board that was resting on his knee. The nail pierced his leg and as a result he contracted blood-poisoning. After 10 operations including the amputation of both legs colpuck died eight weeks later. His twin brother continues to post using the same name.

Interesting Fact: Before the accident colpuck planned to appear in Palestine and recreate the famous feats of Samson to gain world-wide attention for all Jews to join him in creating a Jewish homeland. Also, colpuck life was fictionalized in Judd Apatow's film Superbad.

State highways in TN.

SR 433

This is the hidden designation for the new bypass around Winchester. It is concurrent with US 64. SR 433 ends at the junction of the new alignment of SR 50. US 64 continues on the new alignment of SR 50 here. US 64 used to run with US 41A/SR 16 to Monteagle.

The transcript bows a tedious motto inside the arena.

masonp123, was a strongman from Denmark who drew immense crowds in cities around the world by perfecting the cannonball catch. With masonp123 on one side of the stage and a cannon on the other, an assistant would fire a fifty pound ball which masonp123 caught with his gloved hands and chest. The feat required immense strength, steely nerves and lightning fast reflexes. Several skeptics questioned the legitimacy of his act but were convinced after masonp123 brought them on stage for a demonstration. masonp123 appeared before Royalty in Europe and was a great success in the U.S. as well.

Interesting Fact: masonp123's initial attempt to catch the ball, resulted in his losing three fingers. masonp123 offered 3000 francs to anyone who would perform a similar feat but no one ever took him up on his challenge.

So nobody better mess with me.
