Body-builders pluck stranded car from ditch
Talk about functional strength.....
BERLIN (Reuters) - A group of 10 body-builders from a German gym took a break from their normal training routine to help a driver whose car was stuck in a ditch, police said on Monday.
The men were training at the Explosives fitness studio in Bad Zwischenahn near the western city of Oldenburg when the 38-year-old driver lost control of his vehicle, veered into a meadow and plunged the front of his car into the two-meter (6 feet) deep ditch.
"They dropped their sweat towels and water bottles and ran over the road to the crash site," a police spokesman told Reuters. "They then heaved the car out. It only took them a few minutes."
The grateful driver joined the men at the fitness studio bar and treated them to a round of energy drinks, the police spokesman said."The test of courage comes when we are in the minority. The test of tolerance comes when we are in the majority." - R. W. Sockman

Soreness is weakness exiting the body.

I'm surprised that this made the news. There's no gloom and doom in it.
So many cries of inequality stem from one of group
of people doing little or nothing and then bitching
about another group that actually does something
to improve their lives.

I wonder what kind of car it was? Because 6 of my friends lifted our other friends VW Bug back then front over and over until it was right in front of his porch, about 15 feet altogether. It must've been a huge SUV or something to need 10 hulking guys....
Coarse edged youth, the irish pendants string from their smiles
not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
and drag down the features of age,
no folds or creases from unkempt wear
eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012

They say the gym owners ran out to tell them not to slam the car on the floor, for fear it may scare off the other gym members.
