Charles Vansittart | In the late 1800s, Charles Vansittart ventured to the Klondike to dig for gold, but instead found his calling as a performing strongman. His prospecting skills were a bit lacking but fortunately his strength skills were not. In exchange for food, he began giving strength demonstrations in the Yukon saloons. His act caught on and eventually took him around the world where he was known as the "Man with The Iron Grip." |
