Hey Dr Funk MD - you think lifting a 400lb stone might increase his blood pressure??? Way to pass judgement on a guys health from one pic.

But of course, you could lift that weight without turning a little red!

I have seen an interview (cannot remember the name) he was the CEO from the world strongest man or so.
He was raging on how unbelievable succesful this would be if the companies would see how open this sport is to advertisment, he said look at the masses of people here watching this strongman event - and the camera swung around and there were hardly 100 people there all tourists.
I love watching them but you have to be a realist and see that compared to baseball tennis soccer even snooker this will probably never really hit big time - unfortunatly - and I think I know why, back inthe days when the circus were going from town to town they always had some freak show on (you know kid with no arms lizard lady and so forth) the strongman were not considered freaks but they weren't far of, and thats the same today.

thats what his fucking job is to do to promote the potential to "the companies"  ::)

      i'm not disrespecting oaf i'm just gennunily concerned for the guys health, and curious to what his blood pressure is i've deadlifted 565 i know it's nothing like lifting a 400 lb awkward stone. how many guys doing strongman i've heard of 1 or 2 dropping dead after there events.

On Derek's hands and arms? That is the sticky stuff some strongmen use instead of chalk. One guy on the WSM competition that just aired on espn had duct tape on both forearms.
