    They tore a 700-page phonebook in half, flipped a 900-pound tire and even pulled a double-decker bus down Seventh Avenue using brute strength alone [PHOTOS] .

    Oh yeah, and they hefted Hawaiian Tropics gals aloft.


    The world's strongest men are in town and their sole mission is to show off their huge muscles with terrific feats of strength.

    We got a freebie show today outside Madison Square Garden, starring the reigning champ, America's Strongest Man Derek Poundstone, Europe's Strongest Man Jarek Dymek and the 2006 U.S. strongman champ, Phil Pfister -- who pulled the bus and imparted this wise credo that we call words to live by:

    "You don't know if you can pull a bus until you try."

    Phil and the rest of the beefcake clan are on hand for Saturday's "World's Strongest Man Super Series" at Madison Square Garden. Tickets don't come cheap, they range $50 to $150. But then, how often to you have the biggest guns in the world assembled under one roof?

    Check out this morning's show here:
