Slim The Hammer Man's Gym

Slim The Hammer Man's Gym
A unique look into part of Slim the Hammer Man's "dungeon" gym. Slim has been performing for over 50 years and there's a lot of history on those walls - event posters, pictures of The Mighty Atom, memorabilia, famous strongmen and friends, bent horseshoes and nails, chains, and, of course, his famous sledge hammers.

...That's the Mighty Atom's coat on the chair in the foreground.

Yes, it's even more amazing to see it in real life but if you can't make it to Pottstown, PA, you can still check it out for yourself here.

And, like I said, this is only part of Slim's place.

The Hammerman's Hammers

If those hammers could talk I bet they could tell some stories...
