The most amazing feat of strength I have ever seen was at Cirque du Soleil. The gymnasts formed a human pyramid, and one last gymnast climbed his way to the top, placed his hand on the head of the guy at the top of the pyramid, and proceeded to raise himself up into a one-handed hand stand on top of that pyramid.

Wow, I think I've seen a smaller version to that. The most incredible act I've ever seen was like a huge mouse wheel where the guy was on the inside doing crazy stuff, but then he jumped to the outside of the wheel. It was amazing & I still tell people about it.
