One of the all time great "strong men" dead at 104. Amazing story as the man was a picture of health, but died from unnatural causes.
NEW YORK (AP) -- A famed strongman who once lifted 3,200 pounds at Coney Island during its heyday and was still bending quarters with his fingers at age 104 died Monday after he was hit by a minivan.
Joe Rollino was struck as he crossed Bay Ridge Parkway in Brooklyn, and suffered a broken pelvis, head trauma and broken ribs. He died a few hours later at an area hospital.
