ABSTRACT:
A game based on guessing whether a simulated weightlifter can lift a given weight, comprising a figure in the form of a simulated weightlifter movable from a rest or bent-over position to a lift position by means of the tensioning of a cord or strand, tension limiting means associated with said cord whereby if a pre-set tension level is not exceeded, winding of the cord will cause the figure to move to lift position, while if the pre-set level is exceeded, the cord loses its tension and the figure collapses to its rest position. The placing of weights on the figure varies the tension required to reach lift position, and means are provided for randomly varying the pre-set tension level.
