So, I think my cat is a super hero.

This is probably what you would call a tall tale of sorts, but it's been stuck in my mind since I heard it. First I have to set it up; my uncle who's been in & out of the hospital for blood-clots, ulcers, & other problems resulting from years of "hard living" has been staying with my family to get back on his feet. I left for a two week long tour & my parents went camping for a week, leaving him home alone; just him & our cat AKA "The Cat".
I remember being in Portland when my mom called & told me about the ordeal which was later retold by my uncle Jack. Apparently around 8:30 one morning, "The Cat" was attracting attention from neighbor dogs in two neighboring backyards. They kept barking at him, which I guess stirred him up. This is where it gets good.
Stirred up by the barking, "The Cat" supposedly started sprinting towards our fence & dove right into a fence-post, breaking it down the middle, sending pieces of wood flying several feet into my neighbor's yard. "The Cat" was then said by the only witness : Jack, to have not only busted through the fence but then began "slapping the sh*t" out of the dog. He then walked back through the fence & sat down on our side, as if he were to look up & ask "Who's next?"
Supposedly my neighbor Mario ran out in his underwear into his backyard confused & still denies that any of that was possible. My dad had to put in a new fence post & we have the accounts of an ex substance abuser to dwell on for years now.
"The Cat" does have a alpha-male side to him, constantly leaping out of dark corners to scratch calves & ankles. But this seems way too far fetched, as cool as it sounds.
Has anyone ever seen a cat display a crazy amount of strength? Theories? Ideas?
