Facing off with 100 IronMind® Red Nails™ last night, Greg Amidon and Dave Morton jumped in and never looked back.

Dave reported, "We got to 100, and I'll say I'll never do that again!!!"

"It took almost 3 hours; we set them out in ten groups of ten, and took a 5 minute or so breather after each group."

"Both our hands got mangled naturally, but Greg caught the bad end of that early and fought his way through. That was more impressive than anything I've seen. Goes to show pain is a lot in the mind."

"Had a lot of fun doing this and I'm sure this will show there is no limit to things if you put your mind to it."
