Eugen Sandow
Eugen Sandow (birth name: Friederich Wilhelm Mueller) was an Eastern European strongman performer. He had been performing strongman stunts in carnival side shows since he was 19. Sandow's resemblance to the physiques found on classic Greek and Roman sculpture was no accident. He had been a great admirer of Greek and Roman statues of gladiators and mythical heroes when his father took him to Italy as a boy. He died prematurely in 1925 at age 58 of a stroke shortly after pushing his car out of the mud.

This film is in the public domain meaning it has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights. You can copy, modify, distribute and perform the work, even for commercial purposes, all without asking permission. Corporations lobbied Congress to get U.S. copyright laws extended by 20 years, twice! Because of that, it allows published works to be under copyright for almost a century and corporations to squeeze every last ounce of profit from them even long after the profitability has past. It keeps people from enjoying art, which is the purpose of art.
