Challenging Impossibility in Zurich
Recently, a special display of Sri Chinmoy's lifting equipment were made available for public viewing in the prominent main station in Zurich.
Thousands of people passed the stand which was part of an exhibition on promoting good health. Within the display were 3 TV screens that featured weight-lifting videos and the famous documentary "Challenging Impossibility". The exhibition is a travelling museum and has visited many cities around US and Europe. The exhibition shows the weightlifting machines that Sri Chinmoy used for hoisting immense weights with his arms, legs and shoulders. This includes a staggering 2,600 lb standing calf raise, a unique apparatus for lifting individuals overhead, and a 800 lb bench press. A gallery of photos and short films documenting these extraordinary feats of strength completes the display.
