Scrolling

This is a method of bending where you design long peices of steel from 3ft to say 20ft or longer. This in my opinion is the most fun out of all the bending feats that usually end in a "U" shape. You can do that if its pretty thick steel say 5/8ths of an inch thick and it won't scroll. This is also where strength/endurance pays off in a huge manner wherein the tendons and ligements need to be crazy strong to keep going on the design and it is a full body workout whether you want it to be or not. If I had to pick 4 of the best scrollers in the world at this feat here they are:

Erik Vining

Alexander Zass

Mighty Atom

Slim The Hammer Man

These men without question are the strongest men at this feat and most iron game specialists would agree. To make a shape out of long rebar or flat steel takes insane strength endurance and a mind/body connection thats just off the charts. The true secret to this exercise is isometrics. If you don't believe it try it.
