Mike Greenstein
Morris "Mike" Greenstein, also known as the Mighty Atom, Jr., (born December 6, 1920) is an American strength athlete.
==Early life==
Mike Greenstein was born in Wichita Falls, Texas on December 6, 1920 〔http://www.nyharbor.va.gov/features/TheEntertainer.asp〕 at a time when his father, legendary strongman Joe Greenstein, was working in the oil fields in Texas. The family later moved to Brownsville, Brooklyn where the senior Greenstein began his shows as a miniature Samson in vaudeville and Yiddish theaters.
The senior Greenstein soon earned the nickname the Mighty Atom. Around that time, the junior began training with his father and his three brothers at a young age.
During World War II, he joined the Army Air Corps as mechanic MOS. During that time, his father was touring the country entertaining troops and did shows to raise money for war bonds. Inspired his father, the younger Greenstein decided to start an act of his own to entertain the troops at the various bases he was stationed in by bending bars, breaking chains, and pulling passenger-filled cars with his hair or his teeth. He also performed shows at theaters in the towns near the bases where he was stationed at during his off duty liberty.〔http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2168907/Strongman-Mike-Greenstein-91-pull-car-teeth.html Meet the 91-year-old WWII veteran who can pull a car with his TEETH (and his dad was The Mighty Atom)〕 He later attended aviation school in Manhattan, and subsequently worked at Trans World Airlines for 19 years. He also worked at local Waldbaum’s and photographed weddings.〔(A Truck Is No Match for His Teeth )〕
