National Geographic Special: Super Strength

"We call them Super Human. And they can do the impossible . . . ." That's how BASE Productions and the National Geographic Channel introduce SUPER STRENGTH, which is set to air next Monday, October 22.

We call him "The Face of Strength," and it's Mark Philippi, pulling out another huge deadlift at the Arnold Strongman contest. Mark, who runs the Philippi Sports Institute in Las Vegas, is among the people featured in this upcoming National Georgraphic Special. IronMind® | Randall J. Strossen, Ph.D. photo.

"SUPER STRENGTH takes seemingly impossible feats of human strength and breaks them down into their vital components; revealing the extraordinary ability of some of the strongest men on the planet.

Leading physiologists, bio-mechanists, and engineers join SUPER STRENGTH to determine the secrets of their ability and answer the most basic question about super strength: "How is it possible for a man to do this, and what does this mean for the rest of us?"

"Dennis Rogers, Mark Philippi are on the this show . . . and footage from Arnold's and WSM Super Series . . . I think it will be very interesting," Odd Haugen told IronMind®. Odd will also be on the show.
