Strong I Th' Arm Eve! (1926)

Nineteen year old French girl Jeanne claims to be the strongest woman in the world.



We see Jeanne parking her car, she then applies some face powder using a compact. Jeanne is a pupil of Cadine, an Olympic Champion of Strength - we are told in an intertitle. Jeanne juggles some heavy weights. Jeanne lifts bar bells and weights above her head. She then performs an exercise routine including touching her toes.
