Your story about Mickey Mantle reminded me of a man I worked with years ago who claimed he knew Mantle quite well. He said he once saw Mantle grasp an overhead ceiling beam in a barn with both hands and do several pullups. Not with his hands over the top of the beam, but just by "pinching" it with his grasp from the bottom. I always doubted that story, but your story would suggest he may actually have been able to do it.
