Dennis Rogers on the Tom Green Show

[gohan53t]

so there are chuck norris jokes but not "Dennis Roger" jokes? c'mon!

[frunlakiso2]

I CAN BREAK THESE CUVS! no you can't break these cuvs

[AceofDlamonds]

I didn't think this could be pulled off. damn

I wish I was strong enough to close even the weakest gripper.

[thefanaticx]

I wonder why he doesn't try out those Captains of crush grippers... especially the #4...

[GNick42]

How much could he benchpress?

[SageRai]

Truly amazing. The reason he is able to do that was explain in the science channel. He is not fake is just the he can exploit more muscle fiber than a average weight lifter can. A well know facts is that the average human being use up a 1/3 of their muscle only. So athlete and weight lifter also to. Geneticly he was born withe the ability to use a bit more.

[rich1051414]

@SageRai he was born without the 'governor' everyone else has to prevent hurting yourself by tearing muscle fibers. He also has a very high number of the fast response muscle fibers(fast twitch fiber) usually found in these numbers in Olympic quality sprinters, this combined with his lack of muscle use limitation allows him to generate ALOT of force in small amounts of time. Different than true 'strength' as we measure it, but not any less amazing :D

[josef2038]

Can anybody tell me please what is the dennis roger's height?

[zyrabqwerty]

I know only in metres or santimetres. 170sm

I know that 182sm about 6 foot (or feet)

[johnsexDm]

Excellent!!!!

[maxximumforce]

You have no idea. For one thing I am a strongman and can rip phonebooks pretty much in my sleep. I have seen Dennis take a cold steel chisel out of the package from the store and bend it.....I was there. Extreme feats of strength is not a new concept.

[rockbodyfitness]

i've witnessed him doing it too. i have a wrench that he bent right out of the package and gave it to me to use as a pen holder. unbelievable how much strength are in those hands of his

[okzoia]

But he brought in his OWN locks and chains!! Come on, the production manager should have surprised him with the shows own paraphernalia. That would be fair and believable. This was a setup!

[johnblaster]

no dude, you need to watch this:

watch?v=obJ_00PnOpc

[maxximumforce]

what are you kidding me? I have seen him up close and personal bend stuff you wouldn't believe. A setup? Is it a setup that I take phonebooks wrapped in duct tape and rip them. Wake up dude its 2009, there are some freaky strong people out there.

[EinZweiDrei]

@okzoia If this were something with no possible physical explanation, I'd support your skepticism. But there are people as strong as Dennis Rogers in this world, and there's no magic about it.

[Zodomir]

@okzoia dude that is real chromed steel!!! he is trained to do it

[fatsmut]

@okzoia well c'mon....you try try it ya wimp!LOL

[ExistentialExistent]

wow

[geniusjas87]

he shouldv been in the hulk movie, they wouldnt need any special effects lol

[werewulff7]

he used to be my youth pastor at christian tabernacle thats called strength from GOD the Holy spirit almost the same strength as samson just a lower degree its weird cause hes short and small and he has never lifted a weight in his life

[JerrimeWilliams30]

Move over Scott Meldenson and Bill Kazmier, Dennis Rodgers--ounce for ounce--is the strongest man in history!

[terminat1]

@JerrimeWilliams30 What about Louis Cyr?

[RAYDENMORTALKOMBAT]

its a different strenght , he never needed to do weight training to "destroy" the eteel f example

[RAYDENMORTALKOMBAT]

he makes some things that no one couldnt do them even anothers strongman

[RAYDENMORTALKOMBAT]

dennis is amaizing, i wanna be like him (but not look like him XD)

[regelemihai]

strongman in a different way. He bends things that are not meant to be bent, but that doesn't necessarily make him the strongest man in the world. Those guys who compete in the strongest man titles can lift enormous amounts of weight. I doubt Dennis can do that.

So, it's all relative.

[maxximumforce]

Dennis is different than the usual guys who bend things. He does have serious lift strength. He has hel T-34 trainer jet airplanes while they pulled in opposite directions. He has held 2 and 4 Haqrle Davidson 1400 as the pulled in opposite directions.

He has lifted a refrigerator while it was suspended from his finger. He also did a squat with a harness lifting a lion and a tiger ina an iron cage with a total weight of 1200 lbs.

[regelemihai]

Yes, quite amaizing, no doubt. I was just pointing out to the fact that being "the strongest" is a relative term.

But I'm just curious, since you're a prof' strongman yourself, what can he do that you can't?

[maxximumforce]

If this were a martial art, I would be a brown or low black belt, He would be a grand master like a 7th or 8th degree black belt. My grip is a child's compared to his. I have met and talked to him. He's a great guy...really friendly. But I watched him bend a chisel.

[regelemihai]

Wow...

I'm impressed with his frying pan folding. That is just amaizing.

[maxximumforce]

I have seen him, up close, open packages with chisels from the hardware store and bend them. I know this guy personally, he is a mentor of mine. Its real. There are a lot of people who do this type of stuff. Put grip strength in a google and you will find a whole hand strength subculture.

[loveupskirts]

before i beleive id have 2 seeit up close because a good magician could fake this.

[YahwehBenYahweh]

I tell ya.. If ya disbelive Rogers strength.. Then why belive at anything.

[loveupskirts]

yeah but it coduld still be faked though, a good magician could fake it. im not saying he cant do it , but that a good magician cd fake it. i wd have to see him do it up close and handle the metal 1st.

[DRAY3760]

its real, he came to my church and i was up close.

[UGKisback]

Do you go to mclean bible church?

cuz i was one of the kids that went on stage w/ him and tried to rip the cards

[DRAY3760]

no, he was at powerhouse... he comes fairly often.

[DRAY3760]

Katy, TX

[UGKisback]

o ok

[maxximumforce]

WOW! That's wild. I have seen people get some freaky injuries doing strength feats. Its like martial arts....you don't know why you do it....you just know you love it.

[elmansaguapo]

the guy's 50 and one time tried driving a screw through a frying pan and a 4 by 4 and ended up having the screw go through his hand. the x-rays were insane lol

[maxximumforce]

Okay guys here's the deal. Dennis was a world armwresting champion in 80's. He is about 48 years old. I know this guy and I have seen him do stuff that is just plain scary. One time I saw him take a chisel out of a sealed package and bend it. I still have the chisel here somewhere. His son has the same freaky gift. I have seen Dennis rip decks of cards behind his back. I felt his forearm once while he flexed it. It was dense like steel. This guy is freaky strong.

[fatsmut]

hey seth!!you're the fake!!!

[maxximumforce]

As a strongman myself I rip phone books, bend nails, and bend steel. But I have nothing on Dennis Rogers. I have seen this guy work up close and personal. Its downright scary.

[SethP666]

he is as fake as tom greens interest in him

[2driftmate]

whatever fuckhead. he'd break you in 2

[SethP666]

get real! there is no physique??!? Ive seen strongmen competitors bend iron, and he is a pussywillow compared. so... go fuck yourself

[2driftmate]

it isnt all about physique and muscles pencil dick...

[TYKKETYKKE]

Are you fucking stupid? This guy bends everything from nails to frying pans, so i believe that you sir, better go hang yourself in disgrace.

[Gripmaster3000]

You dont need to be big to be strong.... shows you dont know much about strongman

[ORTprod]

you know nothing about strength.

[Gripmaster3000]

No he's the real deal look him up

[NiXPredator]

It's all about your mental muscle control, your belief in the feats you perform and your muscle densitiy and length. you dont have to be big and muscular to be strong.

[xtrafinesugar]

This is my Pop!!! I LOVE this little bald man ;)

[GripEmpire]

good footage thanks TOm!!!
