The local bar was so sure that its bartender was the strongest man around
that they offered a Rs 10,000 bet. The bartender would squeeze a lemon until
all the juice ran into a glass, and hand the lemon to a patron. Anyone who
could squeeze one more drop of juice out would win the money. Many people
like weightlifters, wrestlers, body builders, etc had tried over time, but
nobody could do it.
One day this scrawny little man came in, wearing thick glasses and a safari
suit, and said in a tiny, squeaky voice, "I'd like to try the bet." After the
laughter had died down, the bartender said OK, grabbed a lemon, and squeezed
away. Then he handed the wrinkled remains of the rind to the little man.
But the crowd's laughter turned to total silence as the man clenched his fist
around the lemon and 5-6 drops fell into the glass. As the crowd cheered, the
bartender paid the Rs 10,000, and asked the little man, "What do you do for a
living? Are you a lumberjack, a weightlifter, or what?"
"No," replied the man.
