Strong? Depends on what kind of spear, right? Doesn't matter, it's just a story.
Came from the story “尉遲恭戰單雄信，「單鞭奪槊」救駕唐王李世民。” i.e., “Wei Cigong defeating Dan Xiongxin to rescue Tang Emperor Li Siwen with the move Single Whip while Capturing Spear”
The Wei was fighting Dan on horseback, when he suddenly let go of his long weapon, grabbed onto Dan’s spear with one hand, pulled out his short Iron Whip and smashed Dan in the middle of his chest and killed him.

This is the way! Human beings just learn better through play. I always like to keep the majority of the training 'light' and playful with added dashes of intensity.
