Louis Cyr is considered by many to be “The strongest man who ever lived”. From a young age he demonstrated legendary feats of strength that mimic those of biblical legend Samson. Louis’s career had started early in his life, and only grew as he got older. Though he died at a relatively young age, he was still able to best all the strongmen of the time in various feats of strength, and was the undisputed strong man of the 19th and 20th century.
