John Henry / Steel-Driving Man
Old Man Henry was named from a folktale of the legendary John Henry. However, in the story he did not survive the contest of man vs. machine, but he did win. If he had survived, I imagine him always working as a steel-driving man into his older years as so many laborers will do.
