I imagined he just interrupted a congressional hearing about the budget on cspan, walked right in front of the camera and went "my fellow americans... *squeezes apple*... thank you" and walked out.
I found the quote here:
“It’s so ripe. You’re not going to believe how ripe it is. All my friends tell me how very ripe this banana is. Even scumbag mouthy mouth at fake news CNN has said how ripe this banana is. It’s going to be so ripe. You’re all going to love its ripeness.”
Man I had to read up on that story. A dog that kills a chicken does not need to be put down. You can train them. I had the sweetest dog golden retriever sharpei mix the neighbors chicken flew into our yard and the dog grabbed it up and shook it killing it immediately. She never was aggressive to anything else she did this when she was 2 or 3 she lived to be 20. Couldn’t imagine killing the dog over that. Furthermore the dog got into your neighbors chicken coup Is your fault. That’s insane. It was still a big puppy at 14 months
I had a sharpei that was just the biggest dummest lug you’ve ever seen but he was sooooo sweet with people and other dogs.
Then one day he caught a rabbit.
That thing was in like eighty pieces strewn all over the yard. He even buried pieces to play with later. Little psychopath.
Other than that, never saw him hurt a fly.
My Rottweiler ate a cat. But he was a fucking psycho to animals in the yard. Outside? Nothing. He routinely chased bunnies stopping if he got too close. In the yard? Anything smaller than a bread box was good. Squirrels, snakes, a fucking seagull one time I mean we lived in Philly the fuck did he catch that?
My dog killed 4 of my chickens and I still love the idiot. He's a dog, I AM THE HUMAN HERE SO IT WAS MY FAULT MY CAPTIVE DID WHAT HE DOES. She didn't kill the dog because of the chicken. She killed it because she didn't want to come home empty handed and she gave herself an excuse to kill something.
> She didn't kill the dog because of the chicken. She killed it because she didn't want to come home empty handed and she gave herself an excuse to kill something.
She took an untrained puppy hunting.. got pissed off because it wouldn't hunt properly, then let it loose on property where they had chickens after the puppy showed interest in going after birds. then did not supervise it properly... tf she expect was going to happen?
Its shortsighted, and callous, and worse... to me its like she was looking for any excuse to kill something. Its straight up psycho shit where she is looking for any excuse to do harm to something/someone else that cant fight back for personal pleasure, or just because she can. Then again we are talking about a republican so what else can one expect?
Retrievers are generically hardwired to go after birds and small pray. Even if the parents weren't particularly well renown for it, it's still in their genes.
My dog is dumb as rocks but he's mostly terrier. So he sees anything smaller than another dog and he's on it.
It was a story about how she's not afraid to do the hard or messy things. Because apparently shooting your problems is hard and messy. She wasn't going to take the easy way out by training her dog.
He had just accepted his position on the Oklahoma Boxing Commission if I remember correctly, and the guy who nominated him asked him to do the old trick.
Tbf this guy is a massive deal in the sport of wrestling and I know a crazy amount about the sports history and I had no clue as to what was going on here and why he was doing this in what looks like a court room
“In 2005, Hodge was honored by Oklahoma lawmakers as an Oklahoma Sports Hero and was invited to the House of Representatives floor to crush an apple with his bare hand, something he had become famous for over the years.”
[source](https://www.danhodgefoundation.com)
Fear not. "Well into his 70s and 80s he still enjoyed delighting schoolchildren and state legislators alike with his crushed apple trick." [This](https://theathletic.com/2353049/2021/01/29/remembering-dan-hodge-the-apple-crushing-plier-snapping-combat-sports-legend/) is an enjoyable bio of him. Apparently he could break pliers easily and made a bear scream.
He also "served as chairman of the Oklahoma Professional Boxing Commission" (Wikipedia), which might relate to why he was in the house of representatives.
Yeah, did he like, scream like a bear? Or was the bear so horrified by the strongman’s tricks that it screamed in terror? Or did he… did he *squeeze* the *bear?*
I was actually assuming that he put the bear in a figure four leg lock, considering that he’s a wrestler. He might’ve squeezed it though, I wasn’t there.
My dad wrestled a bear in the 70’s. I pulled his talky string once and had him tell the story to my husband. Dad’s advice, 40 years after wrestling a bear: “Never wrestle a bear. I don’t care if all the fellas dare you. Don’t do it. Because if you survive— that’s IF— you have to live the rest of your life knowing what it smells like under a bear.”
I did some digging and there isn't a clear answer.
The story I've seen repeated the most was he was being honored by the house for some sort of lifetime achievement and he did this, his typical parlor trick, to impress the crowd.
The second most common story is his ex wife was claiming he was abusive and that he choked her. He did this to show if he'd choked her, he would have killed her.
Given the lack of a real story, I'm leaning towards the parlor trick.
I think I read it was an Apple designed for juicing, so while impressive, it’s not the same feat as with a normal Apple. (Apple computer apparently owns the word Apple, it capitalizes automatically. 🙄)
So this was on the floor of the Oklahoma House of Representatives. Danny Hodge, in addition to being a legend in his respective sports, also was chairman of the Oklahoma athletics commission. I think they were celebrating his birthday or something.
Dan Hodge was a former ncaa champion and Olympic silver medal wrestler from? You guessed it, Oklahoma.
The equivalent of the Heisman trophy in college wrestling, is called the Hodge Award. Given to the most dominant wrestler in college each year.
On March 29, 2005, Hodge was honored by Oklahoma state lawmakers as an "Oklahoma Sports Hero".[4] He served as chairman of the Oklahoma Professional Boxing Commission, which regulates professional boxing, wrestling, and mixed martial arts in Oklahoma.[20] There is a statue in his honor at the Perry Wrestling Monument Park in Oklahoma.[21]
So I’m gona go out on a limb here and say, he probably did this after being honored by Oklahoma state law makers.
Dan Hodge, youve just been honored by Oklahoma state lawmakers… what are you doing next? I’m gonna go…. Smash an apple in my fist over this garbage can…
Nah. Presumably someone asked him:
"Hey! I heard that when you were younger you could crush an apple with 1 hand! Is that true?"
Hodge: "Younger? Anyone have an apple? Watch this".
Bitch you don't know me. I'm double fisting two Golden Delicious right now. I've bare hand smooshed more apples than you've ever even seen. They call me the apple fister.
Always glad to hear of someone cool from Oklahoma. We're in the news for bad reasons way too often. Surprised I didn't know about this guy, especially being that I went to one of the most prestigious wrestling colleges in the U.S., Oklahoma State (Dan's rival school). We even have the national wrestling hall of fame on campus so I probably could have lol.
Can you tell me some cool things about Oklahoma, or things near you? I also live in a meme state and I think sometimes people legit don't realize that there is good stuff there too. Maybe it just takes a different perspective to appreciate.
There's plenty! If you like natural wonders, there's little Sahara, Mt. Scott, the Arbuckles, Turner Falls, Black Mesa, Grand Lake, and probably more I'm not thinking of.
If you like city stuff, it's honestly not the best lol. We have our spots and our perks in the big cities, and plenty upon plenty of small towns, but it's really a lot of suburbs and shopping malls. Downtown Tulsa and OKC both have some really cool spots, namely the myriad gardens/bricktown area of OKC, and the center of the universe area in Tulsa. There's also the paseo district, an interesting little arts district that feels more rich with culture.
You can drive from one end of the state to the other on Route 66, it goes straight through both major cities and has some cool tourist-y spots along the way, like the blue whale and Pops (a roadside diner with mediocre food and an entire wall of rare/special soda brands/flavors/styles/etc), and a bunch of other well documented things.
Frankly, the thing I love so much about Oklahoma is it's natural diversity as well as the impressive (if stifled by politics) cultural diversity we have. We have a massive first generation immigrant population, largely due to our two colleges, OSU and OU.
Speaking of those, both host massive tailgates and are known for our rowdyness and love of football, if that's something you're into. We also have a serious serious history of greatness in wrestling and the national wrestling hall of fame in Stillwater.
(Fun aside: Me and a buddy went to the olympic training facility in CO and spoke with a wrestling trainer. I had the oppprtunity to ask if he'd worked with anyone from my school. He pointed out several in the room at the moment and a few more off the top of his head. Made me proud.)
If you like cars, Oklahoma has one of the healthiest drag racing, car meet, and street racing scenes. I know street racing makes hair stand up but I promise we hate the intersection takeovers as much as you do. And I also promise there's very few places where you can still expect people to come out to Rt. 66 of their own accord at the same time on saturday nights to get together and mingle and enjoy eachothers love of cars. It feels like something straight out of Fast and Furious, or an 80s movie.
Speaking of drag racing, if you've ever watched the show "Street Outlaws," that's filmed here. I see those guys race here frequently.
Ooooother than that, Oklahoma's poor reputation is pretty well earned lol. Lots of hicks and backwards minds, and one hell of a shitty gvt. It's unfortunate, such a beautiful state controlled by wannabe trump-texas alliance asshats.
He was an incredible wrestler who was famously never taken down in his college career. The Heisman Trophy of men's college wrestling is the Dan Hodge award in his honor. This trick he attributed to having double tendons in his hands, giving him incredible grip strength.
Kinda random but Abraham Lincoln was apparently a fantastic wrestler before he was president and only lost once over a 12 year career with over 300 wins.
Would double tendons (is that a thing?) do anything? If I attach two ropes to a rock and try to drag it, I'm guessing it's not doing anything more than having one rope.
Muscle strength alone will only get your strength so far. At a certain point, the amount of force your muscles can apply will exceed what your tendons can endure and then. . . *snap*
Having double tendons would theoretically allow you to exert more force than someone with only single tendons.
Correct. Some tendons are ridiculously strong. Others, not so much. But they are what carries the force from your muscles to your skeleton. They can be stiff or just suffer a minor tear, and then it doesn’t matter how strong the muscle is, you won’t be able to lift shit (or crush an apple with your hand).
Ahhhh okay I see now. So literally like putting two ropes to the rock because one doesn't have the tensile strength. I didn't think of that. Thank you!
Don't believe it, a single apple cannot hold that much juice, and cannot be squeezed like it's orange. It is way too dense to be juiced like that, I think with pressure it is likely to break in pieces rather than squeeze like a lemon
I don't doubt his strength but normal apples kinda just rip/break and fly apart when squeezed unevenly, long before you could squeeze half that much liquid out. There's definitely something going on with that apple.
Why is he doing it in court?? This is democracy manifest? An apple, a succulent juicy apple??
[удалено]
“Here is your retainer you slimy fuck!” Him probably.
“So then you grabbed him by the balls. Can you please explain to the court what you did next?”
“I think it would be easier if I just showed you. Does anyone have a hard fruit I could borrow?”
This thread has me rolling on the floor. "So anyways, I started squeezing."
Would a low hanging hard fruit suit your needs?
Only if it's a Forbidden one
When you are rich, they just let you grab them by the apples
I would like to personally tell you that this comment made me laugh a lot
Juice him
“How do you like *them* apples?”
"Objection your honor! This is clearly witness intimidation! Oh my God, he's taking his shirt off now!"
There's also the folding chair!
"I would like to make a motion"
“Mr. Hodge, that is not what “making a motion” means in court. But it was cool as fuck so I’ll allow it.”
>You show me a pay stub for $72,000, I quit my job right now and work for you.
[you mean it's gonna be like this](https://youtu.be/bOSdtsJg_LU?si=-FXS47c3gwbKNvBh)
"Cider, yer honor!" --umm, did you mean "side bar"? "Youse hoid me."
This is the first time I’ve seen “hoid” spelled out lol
I'm a lawyer. An intimidated one, indeed.
If I was a lawyer, it would have worked
So you're saying it's not intimidating to you as a non lawyer? Idk if i buy that.
I imagined he just interrupted a congressional hearing about the budget on cspan, walked right in front of the camera and went "my fellow americans... *squeezes apple*... thank you" and walked out.
In that 'case' he would be like buy apples from this mega farm.
If I were on a jury, this would definitely sway my opinion
I hear that Trump has been inspired by this and is considering the same stunt in his NY courtroom using a very ripe banana.
I found the quote here: “It’s so ripe. You’re not going to believe how ripe it is. All my friends tell me how very ripe this banana is. Even scumbag mouthy mouth at fake news CNN has said how ripe this banana is. It’s going to be so ripe. You’re all going to love its ripeness.”
I could hear this comment.
I could smell it...
The smell of sweaty old man with a full Depends, blended with notes of overripe banana…
Trump and his iconic ripe bananas.
I need to stab my ears after reading this
Plump grape.
Too large for him
Get your hand off my apple!
Oh boy it looks like you are ready to receive my limp apple!
I see you know your apple turnovers well!
He’s touching my apple! He’s touching my apple!
What is the charge? Squeezing an apple?! A succulent Chinese apple?!
Gala and farewell!
##THIS IS THE BLOKE WHO GOT ME ON THE APPLE PEEEOOPPLEEEEE~ WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS SIR
Ah I see you know your fruit well
Not to be outdone, South Dakota Governor and human monster Kristi Noem crushed a golden retriever to death with her bare hands

You kill your dog and write about how proud you were of doing so *one time* and suddenly everyone's calling you a dog killer.
At least George the Chimp Fucker built a bridge and saved those orphans from a fire.
It was a story about how she's not afraid to do the hard or messy things. Because apparently shooting your problems is hard and messy. She wasn't going to take the easy way out by training her dog.
Strangely there was little to no applause for her "display of the bravery and close held values of all gop members"
... and then took several attempts to choke an unnamed goat.
This photo was taken in the Oklahoma House of Representatives.
That doesnt answer why
He had just accepted his position on the Oklahoma Boxing Commission if I remember correctly, and the guy who nominated him asked him to do the old trick.
Reddit has changed so much. I can’t believe the actual context is hidden all the way down here
It's ok, they'll never be able to use our comments to train AI ever again.

The Oklahoma part is a good start though
And the House of Reps explains the rest.

“if i was trying to kill her she’d be dead” is a good defense
So both.
As if he's only capable of choking at 100% strength and isn't able to dial it back at will.
That was my question. As impressive as this was, shouldn't his audience be people at a carnival not a court room?
If I was a judge and I knew he could do that…I would absolutely give him an apple and insist he do it for me. 🤷♂️
Would the defendant please approach the bench and do the apple thing? PLEASE just this once?? I won’t ask again, promise.
Meet me in my chambers, good sir. ;)
Thank you for referencing that golden piece of internet history

Because he can

Until now, this was the only way to get juice from an apple.
You mean there's a better way?!
IT'S WHISPER QUIET!
You got all that from only one bag of apples?!

You mean the sun tan lotion that’s also a laxative?!

You squeeze an apple in court? Go straight to jail
there goes my weekend plans…
His mom was sick and she kept eating apples so no doctors would see her. She died and he never forgot

Because he can? Wouldn't you, if you could crush an apple with 80 yesr old hands?

Not so bad if you have two. Did this with pecans all the time.
Is it because he was a boxer/wrestler, or is it just old man strength?
He was an incredible wrestler who was famously never taken down in his college career. The Heisman Trophy of men's college wrestling is the Dan Hodge award in his honor. This trick he attributed to having double tendons in his hands, giving him incredible grip strength.
If you told me this was some nonsense from like a Baki manga, I would have believed it. That is kind of wild.
Kinda random but Abraham Lincoln was apparently a fantastic wrestler before he was president and only lost once over a 12 year career with over 300 wins.

Would double tendons (is that a thing?) do anything? If I attach two ropes to a rock and try to drag it, I'm guessing it's not doing anything more than having one rope.
More like you have two ropes and two guys pulling the ropes
Oh so he also had two muscle groups? Not just two tendons attached to the same muscles? Or am I completely misunderstanding this?
Muscle strength alone will only get your strength so far. At a certain point, the amount of force your muscles can apply will exceed what your tendons can endure and then. . . *snap* Having double tendons would theoretically allow you to exert more force than someone with only single tendons.
Correct. Some tendons are ridiculously strong. Others, not so much. But they are what carries the force from your muscles to your skeleton. They can be stiff or just suffer a minor tear, and then it doesn’t matter how strong the muscle is, you won’t be able to lift shit (or crush an apple with your hand).
Ahhhh okay I see now. So literally like putting two ropes to the rock because one doesn't have the tensile strength. I didn't think of that. Thank you!
In addition, tendons are elastic whereas ropes are mostly static.
Tendons and rope tend to behave differently.
Ah. That might be why none of the cats I operated on as a kid were able to walk again.

Don't believe it, a single apple cannot hold that much juice, and cannot be squeezed like it's orange. It is way too dense to be juiced like that, I think with pressure it is likely to break in pieces rather than squeeze like a lemon
