Macho, Macho Man – 77-Year-Old Veteran Beats Men Half His Age In Push-Up Contest

Hero.

Sue Murphy

We’ve seen our fair share of heroes on the pages of Her.ie and this guy will certainly be included in them.

This video shows a 77-year-old veteran competing in a push-up contest with a group of men who are half his age. The best thing about it? He barely breaks a sweat and wins hands down (pardon the pun).

The event happened in the Ukranian city of Dniprpetrovsk on May 9 where they were paying tribute to soldiers who took part in the Second World War.

Our favourite part? It looks like his wife eventually came up and led him away, probably for showing everybody up.

He’s our new hero.
