Milo of Croton was a wrestler with several ancient Olympic titles under his belt. He is most widely known for his incredible feats of strength
People believe that Milo died one day while he was cutting a tree in half and his hand got caught on the tree.Hours later a pack of wolves found Milo and killed him and ate him.
Milo wrestled animals like bulls and other big animals.
Great facts, Jeremiah! Milo of Croton certainly sounds like a very strong and capable athlete. It is very sad to read that he died when a pack of wolves devoured him - yikes.
ReplyDeleteWould you consider yourself to be a strong person? I think that I am reasonably strong but I certainly couldn't cut a tree in half with my bare hands like Milo!
Keep up the great work with your blogging :)
