10 Insane Vince McMahon Stories Everybody Believes

5. Out-lifting Mark Henry

Fitness fanatic Vince McMahon told Muscle & Fitness Magazine a couple of years ago that he once "decimated" World's Strongest Man Mark Henry during a WWE work-out session.

According to Vince, having waited until Henry was feeling the burn, he turned up in the gym and challenged him to a lifting competition, which ended - after Vince had taunted his employee with the accusation that he was being outstripped by a 60-year-old - in victory for the chairman of the board.

Normally, we'd dismiss this as fantasy, but Henry himself has corroborated the story, admitting that he quit the session before his boss (although that probably had less to do with tiredness than it did him trying to stay in the WWE head honcho's good books).

Whatever the case, you have to give Vince some props here. Few men are still hitting the gym at 60, and even fewer can claim to have given the World's Strongest Man the runaround in a weight-lifting contest. He is as strong as he is insane.
