Stanley Pleskun, strongman extraordinaire says his toughest feat was stopping two single-engine planes from taking off by holding onto ropes tied to their tail sections!
"I had one on either side of me and I held them for a full minute while they were at full throttle."
Said Naomi Nierenberg, co-owner of the Princeton Airport where Stanley accomplished his plane feat: "Both planes were at full throttle. They could have torn him apart. But he held them and prevented them from taking off. If I hadn't witnessed it, I would never have believed it was possible!"
