Roman legionary feats of fitness

[Tarbicus]

During the Judean revolt, the one in the 60s C.E., a legionary named Rufus who, iirc, was originally from Egypt, suddenly broke out of his file and charged over to the Jewish lines and picked up one of their leaders by the ankle and physically carried him back to his own lines as a prisoner. Incredible.

ROFL Sounds like modern police "snatching" during riots.
