Bill "Kaz" Kazmaier came to the Northshore YMCA last Friday. StarTrac, the exercise equipment company that sponsors Kaz's tour, hired me to photograph some of his "strong man" activities.

Talking to a small volunteer.

Lifting a child with one finger. The event was open to the public and my family (well, the boys) decided they had to go see the World's Strongest Man. And my daughter made herself useful by holding an umbrella during the bus pull!

Here Kaz is rolling a frying pan up with his hands! Um...I don't think I can do that.

Pulling a bus full of kids in the pouring rain with the "help" of the YMCA's COO.

Signing a rubber duck for my youngest!
