- As the daughter of German circus performers, Katie Sandwina (born Kathi Brumbach in 1884) was raised in a world uniquely encouraging of female athleticism and physicality. At a young age, she could routinely defeat her male counterparts in various strength challenges, and by the 1910s, she was arguably America’s first true celebrity strongwoman; known as "Lady Hercules" and "The Great Sandwina." The latter nickname was likely adapted from "Sandow," in reference to the great German bodybuilder Eugen Sandow, whom Katie had supposedly once outperformed in a weightlifting exhibition. Across a 50-year career under the Big Top, Sandwina’s combination of grace, beauty, and power (she could famously lift her own husband over her head with one arm) amazed audiences, opened minds, and helped set the stage for the redefinition of female strength-and strength in general-in the 20th century. The documentary film Sandwina is the fourth chapter in the Rogue Legends Series.

Very nice movie. She was a relative of mine- Katie Sandwina was married to Max Heymann, brother of my great great grandmother. Thanks for doing such a nice job getting most of the facts right. She WAS born in Essen. However, she was not Jewish, at least by birth, but came from a large catholic family. Her husband Max was Jewish. Max and Katie had another son Alfred Sandor, who was a stage and TV actor and was only briefly a boxer; Ted died in 1991. Katie and max have one living grandson. I’d love to touch base with some of the researchers on this film.
Do you know where was her restaurant?
Of all of the series so far, this is perhaps my favorite. I think it's Jan's reverence and the relationship between Max and Katie and Jan and Terry. Very emotional.
Beautiful job! She was a wonderment.
A deserving tribute to this pioneer.
So cool you produce content like this. Thk you Rogue🤘🏽⚔️
That's my great great Grandma

Another great one, Rogue! Keep up the great videos.
Just wonderful. Thank you for making this series. I have a daughter so that really resonates with me.
31:43 Beautiful. She died without knowing that one day her image would become the statue for the Pro Strongwoman prize at the Arnold Sports Festival, as a tribute to her talent.
7:50 her father was a handsome man.
She was a real-life Amazon. Legendary!

If Rogue expanded its legends series, they should focus on the greatest Special Olympics Powerlifters of all time, including Louis Maxwell, PG Griffin, Hyeongrak Kim, Wonho Kang, Julian Jeffery, Jackie Barrett, Chrystal Bradley, and Frances Skiftesvik.
Jackie Barrett, also known as "The Newfoundland Moose", a former Special Olympics Powerlifter originally from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, would be a main focus as his strength and brilliance made him a strong and revered competitor.
The average man can't do 286 overhead. Very respectable weight
Impressive she was doing this without drugs
Athleta Van Huffelen is another interesting strong woman from the Victorian era. Perhaps covered in your "Strongwomen" video?
Hi @Rogue - who was the sculptor of this amazing statue?
The sculptor is Michael Deming and he lives in Ohio. He also made the statue of Donald Dinnie that we give as the prize at the Arnold Pro Highland Games.
