This powerlifting 82-year-old grandma made an intruder regret breaking into her home

Quote
Murphy told WHAM she called the police but wouldn't let the man in her house. Then, she said, he became angry and broke through the door.

"It's kind of semi-dark and I'm alone, and I'm old. But guess what, I'm tough," she said, bearing her muscular arms. "He picked the wrong house to break into."

Murphy is an award-winning bodybuilder who said she works out at her local YMCA almost every day.

"I took that table and I went to working on him," she said. "And guess what? The table broke."

Unphased, Murphy said, she used the metal legs of the table to keep hitting him.

After jumping on him a couple times, Murphy ran to the kitchen, grabbed a bottle of baby shampoo and squirted it on the man's face as he tried to get up.

It didn't end there. Next, she said, she took a broom and whacked him some more.

By that time, the intruder was ready to leave. Though Murphy said she can deadlift 225 pounds, she struggled to drag the man out of the house.
"He wants to get the heck out of there. And I'm trying to help him get out of the house, but he's too heavy. I can't move him. He's dead weight."

Maybe this is too "inside baseball" but she is a competitive powerlifter. The great thing - besides the fact she's able at age 82 to do that - is that she evidently does have competition (females, her age bracket, her weight bracket).

"I think he was happy when he went in the ambulance because I sent him in the ambulance. Yes, I did."

She should have selected some kitchen ware and done some creative work on parts of him so he would really have wanted to leave.

But then the girls club at the prison would have been less satisfied.

A$$ handed to you by a great-grandma?

Time for that greeter job at Wal Mart.

The one thing about getting your a$$ handed to you. Your
friends will remind you about it.  Forever.

I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

Murphy works out almost daily at Rochester’s Maplewood YMCA and said she can deadlift 225 pounds — more than twice her weight. She can do one-handed pullups and one-handed pushups.

She won the World Natural Powerlifting Federation Lifter of the Year award in 2014.
