Driving a Nail through a License Plate and Wooden Board – Feats of Strength Friday

In addition to having a personal training studio on Main Street in Boonton I also have a business as a modern day performing strongman. I had started a youtube series called Feats of Strength Friday where each Friday I perform a different feat of strength like you might catch in one of my live shows and put it onto youtube.

In this episode, I have an attempt at driving a nail through both a license plate and a wooden board.

Normally my training studio is not this messy, still in shambles from filming one of my virtual shows a couple days ago (yesterday was my birthday and even though I trained my personal training clients…I wasn’t about to tidy up beyond disinfecting the place)

Have an excellent weekend everyone!


Eric Moss is a world-record-holding modern-day professional performing strongman, author, motivational speaker, and personal trainer. In the tradition of the strongmen more common during the turn of the century, he performs feats of strength such as bending steel and breaking chains as part of a show and speaks on goal achievement for corporations, nonprofits, government as well as for schools and universities. His exclusive personal training studio is located on Main Street in Boonton New Jersey, is close to Mountain Lakes, Denville, Montville and Parsippany New Jersey.
