About Arthur Saxon
- Arthur Saxon (April 28, 1878 – August 6, 1921), born Arthur Hennig and nicknamed "The Iron-Master", was a German strongman and circus performer from the late 19th century into the early 20th century.
- Saxon is best known for the bent press, a lift in which he was far superior to any other strongman, setting a world record of 168 kg (370 lbs) which remains unbroken to this day.
- He also lifted 175 kg (385 lbs) informally in a gym, as well as making a "two hands anyhow" lift of 203 kg (448 lbs).
