The Coney Island Strongman Spectacular Kicks Off 8/29

The strongmen are back for one day only at the Olde Time Coney Island Strongman Spectacular!
A display of such magnitude has not been seen in Coney Island for over 60 years. Chris Rider, one of the strongest men on the planet and Adam the First Real Man, premier sideshow attraction have collaborated on what can only be described as a colossal event.

They have gathered the strongest men on the East Coast for a showcase of unusual acts and super human feats the likes of which your eyes have never seen.
Not since Coney Island's golden years have giants such as these performed at the legendary amusement mecca.

Each of these performers has several unique feats that they have mastered, as well as the classic strongman standards that no strongman cavalcade should be without.
Gary "The Brickman" Brown (VA) Gary is the world record holder in the brick lift.

Tommy Heslep (VA) Weighing in at 170 pounds, Tommy has got one of the strongest crushing grips in the world...certified.
Sonny Barry (NJ) Sonny is in his mid 60's and is the best at turning bottle caps inside out with his thumb, and if that doesn't get you, he has the ability to break up to 3 pieces of stacked 2 by 12 construction lumber with NO spacers using only his fist.

Chris "Wonder" Schoeck (NY) Pound for pound he is bending some of the toughest bars in the 26-30" range. Chris made his performing debut earlier this summer at Coney Island USA's Sideshows by the Seashore where he was a featured guest performer.

Chris Rider (PA) Chris has been declared "one of the strongest men on this planet" by strength historians. He is a master of hair feats. You'll be amazed as he bends steel using the hairs on his head!

Steve Wiener (NY) Steve is a master of combination feats such as holding a fire hydrant from his head while levering two sledge hammers crucifix style.
Stanley "Stanless Steel" Pleskun (NJ) Stan is the only man that can bend a US quarter with his fingers. Most recently, he was featured in a full length documentary about his life as a strongman.

Adam the First Real Man (NY) Adam is a mainstay at Sideshows by the Seashore producing his highly successful monthly variety show as well as a featured performer at many of Coney Island USA's special events. Adam will serve as master of ceremonies for this event.
If you don't think it can be bent, twisted, smashed, broken, torn, shredded, or demolished by a human being...you're in for a surprise, because it's all real, it's all alive, and it's only at the Coney Island Strongman Spectacular!
