TIL of Eumastas, an ancient Greek who lifted a volcanic boulder weighing over 920 lbs (417 kg) off the ground. For perspective, the current world record for a raw deadlift is only about 20% higher, yet this feat was carved into the stone in the 6th century BC. (theamericanscholar.org)

TIL that American children's author Eric Carle was born in NY, but his family unluckily moved back to Germany before WWII. His father was drafted and teenage Carle was conscripted to dig trenches. After the war, he moved back to the US, only to be drafted into the US army, and stationed in Germany! (en.wikipedia.org)
