Save A Canterbury University student going by the name "Mad Dog" has won an armwrestle showdown with one of Prime Minister John Key's bodyguards.
Students challenged Mr Key to pit his best security guard against their best armwrestler during his visit to their campus this afternoon.
The battle between "Mad Dog"
and the unidentified guard lasted about 20 seconds.
In TVNZ footage, Mr Key could be heard saying "Mad Dog's obviously very strong".
He later said he would have given the winning student a knighthood if he had been nominated for the New Year's honours list.
