maybe 3/4 of inch think not a full big yellow pages....but i did it all at once when i go to my mates who has a digi cam i will get him to take periodic photos of my doing it and i will post it up here.
Strongman feats can be real ego boosters.
My wife can clean and press one handed a 65lb dumbbell for reps. You should see how the guys at the gyms almost kill themselves trying this after seeing her do it. LOL
Try crushing a raw potato with your grip. The first time you do it you will be on top of the world.
Oh yeah, congrats on teh phone books, now try a new york one. LOL
Cheers!

you need to rip them in half and then recycle them...i wonder if the recycle place would like that even more...i have ripped all of the ones in my house in half now..apart from the newest one i am going to make a trip to some my friends houses today and get some old ones off of them...i also found out i can ring the yellowpages and get some delivered to my house...i had to wipe up the pool of drool that had accumulated on the floor after i read that on the net.

After we switch to the metal covers yeah. LOL (naw staying with our current covers)
Originally I wanted to use leather covers for our manuals then after getting a quote I stepped back and said.... "Carboard it is!" LOL
Yeah strength stuff is fun. I tran my grip still but haven't played with those old tricks in agaes. Coin bending, deck of cards ripping ect. Fun stuff.

ill let you in on a secret...go to australia post and ask for some...they are free, just tear it down the binding so it is half the thickness and then off you go.....
Oh and it sounds impressive tearing a phonebook in half but its not that impressive when you get the right technique down pat.
lol....you can show your mates how strong you all are now...woot woot.
bet i cant either...ripping a phone book is all in the technique anyway.
RegimenX said:once you have the strength that is
just look at the website i posted..in the first page of the thread...it required a little bit of grip strength but..not that much.
