Here's a video of Samson Shimshon, the strong. His power was given to him by God, and his hair was the symbol of his strength. If he cut his hair, he would lose all strength.
Unfortunately, he had his hair cut off (not from his consent, of course), and then he was captured, and he has his eyes burned out. Ouch.
Here in the picture, he's in the temple of the Philistines, his enemy. The Philistines had gathered in the temple to watch him become humiliated. He prayed to God for final strength to destroy the Philistines. When strength was given to him again, he pulled the temple pillars together(even though it looks like he's pushing them), thus destroying the temple and killing the Philistines, but it also destroyed him as a sacrifice.
