Kaz or The Viking...who is your favourite

[Balloon]

Do u like the Brute strength and intensity of Kaz,
or the Showmanship and Charisma or Jon Pall Sigmarsson 

[QuakerOats]

pure strength wise Kaz destroyed Jon Pall.

[Ursus]

I am kinda dorky and one of my gifts i get each year for xmas in a guinness book of records. Been getting them 12 years now.

Have a good 2 page spread on WSM...first time i ever seen it in a magazine.

But Kaz kills JP in strength. I kinda hate how the bigger stronger guys lose on running 75yards with 300lb stone by smaller guys who couldnt finish 30yards with a 400lbs stone when the big guy could

So did O.D Wilson, but we all saw what happened 

[spinnis]

the only thing that worse for you then BB, Strongman 

[QuakerOats]

So does O.D Wilson, but we all saw what happened 

yes, he lost in a stupid foot race that had nothing to do with being strong.

[Ursus]

by half a point in 1984...smallest margin of loss ever.

When kaz won by 23.5 points one year

[Boost]

yes, he lost in a stupid foot race that had nothing to do with being strong.

Well the WSM has never been about "just pure strength".
You have to have all the tools, fitness, speed, athleticism.

O.D should have stuck to powerlifting...

because the WSM competition is what it is.

yes, WSM is the Running With Weights Federation.

[bigmc]

they are both legends

chalk and cheese

Kaz was alot stronger though

[Boost]

yes, WSM is the Running With Weights Federation.

Sure, the Arnold classic Strongman comp is a much better rest of "pure brute strength"

But the WSM has a great history, a great legacy

Mariusz is known internationally by average people

Savickas is known in strongman/powerlifting circles

[Ursus]

They used to have sumo wrestling.

irongame.com before it closed was awesome.

Had vids of Kaz tossing about a 290lb Jon Gamble liek a rag doll. Was riudiculous TBH

He ended up beating Bill Waddington who was reknowned for his leg strength

[spinnis]

I watched teh UK strongest man on Bravo for a while yesterday, run by glenn ross. He competed also. Was ok also though production of it was a bit shit. I think its on more this week.

[Swedish Viking]

Jon Pall is a legend is Iceland.  Unfortunately, no one talks about my favorite Magnus Ver Magnusson.  Although, I got the inside scoop while I was in Reykjavik last, apparently Maggi has taken to thumb breaking to make ends meet these days.

[hazbin]

i met Kaz a few years ago. still massive.
