Join me on my Strength Quest! I have dedicated my life to the great challenges that lay before me.
I am willing to travel to the far corners of the world to test my full intellect, strength, courage and determination in attaining what was previously thought impossible.
This page is a compilation of my endeavours. My hope as always is both to entertain and inspire . . .
