Go see! #repost @tulliehousemuseum __________________ IT’S #FAIRGROUNDFRIDAY 🎉 & we’re paying tribute to a #fairground favourite - the #STRONGMAN 🎪💪 . Did you know that Pierre Gasnier, otherwise know as the ‘French Hercules’, was only 5ft 3ins tall, but could rip a deck of cards in half, break chains over his chest & lift a dumbbell nearly twice as heavy as himself? 🏋️♂️ . If you love all things strongman you’ll simply adore the ‘Power of Love’ automata in our #FantasticFairground Factory exhibition by @kazu_automata ❤️ . Visit our website at www.tulliehouse.co.uk to find out more about our wonderful #Summer #exhibition & programme of events! . @cabmech #museum #Carlisle #automata #Fridayfacts #mechanical #poweroflove #Cumbria #testyourstrength
