Hi to all who are fans of the Strongmen competitions. This year it was held in Malta and was apparently a really really good venue and set of events. From what i've read the Brits really seem to have done well and in the top ten we had 2 people. So a good day for the Brits. For those who want to know the standing. Just highlight below: Savickas (Lithuania) - 58 Pudzianowski (Poland) - 53 Shaw (USA) - 49 Poundstone (USA) - 46 Ortmayer (USA) - 45.5 Hollands (UK) - 41 Pfister (USA) - 29.5 Ostlund (USA) - 25 Shahlei (UK) - 24.5 LPJ - 13.5 Should be an interesting event to watch this Christmas.
While i partly agree, he's a fantastic deadlifter. Im just gutted Jimmy Marku wasn't there would have probably given us a little better placing (Brits). I've been following it from the qualifiers and Big Z was apparently one of the expected to win guys then! 385 monster he was. Not bad considering his injury a few years back everyone thought he'd never lift again! I personally wanted Pudzianowski to win, he's the "look" of the Worlds Strongest Man imo
Oh no denying he's unbelievably good - but there' just something about his persona that I just don't like. I agree about Marku, I'd have loved to have seen him there. Pudz has won it enough times to still be around for a few years yet - though I agree he is absolutely collosal.
