Sunday's New York Times had an interesting article
on Mike Greenstein, The Mighty Atom's son.
I've met Mike many times at the AOBS...
I never realized that he still performs
as "The Mighty Atom Jr."

Article: "A Truck Is No Match for His Teeth"
"New York" section ...NYT July 1, 2012.

Kim,

Thanks for the heads up.

I also found this link to a video of him in action!

I was about to say 'what's the big deal?' then I saw his age. 91!! Wow!! If I can do half of that if I make it to that age I'd be happy.

I didn't realize Mike still did demonstrations either.
A humble guy, he never brought it up at any AOBS I've been to, and he attends the SAT afternoon "historical meetings" each year.
Good for Mike, a nice guy..

I like that this shows that fitness is not just the game of the young. This is most inspirational.
