When Hercules, son of Zeus, saves Princess Omphale from drowning, her mother, Queen Nemea, sees an opportunity and plots to have the pair wed. Omphale, however, is in love with Inor and has no intention of marrying Hercules. Hercules is tricked into believing that in order to win Omphale's hand he must first defeat legendary strongman Samson, while two other challengers for the strongest man title, Ursus and Maciste, are also drawn into the competition.
