world strongest man

leglock · 30-10-2006, 01:47 PM

watched the british strongest man on telly yesterday...seems we got a few lads through to the worlds...anyone know if theres a website about the world strongest man event...and when and where it is this year...
my guess is most of the old faces will be gone this year to be replaced by a bunch of mental case looking eastern europeans...but what else is new

It's over. It was in Sanya, China - Phil Phister won.

What channel was BSM on?

sky 1
you could of just said its over instead of spoiling the anticipation

thought he would win it sooner or later...wont hear the last of it from the yanks now...where did pudzia whatever his name is come

XXLTank · 30-10-2006, 05:04 PM

He came 2nd. Marunde placed low - injury, I think.

leglock · 30-10-2006, 07:27 PM

just as well....2 yanks on the podium would just be too much to take

XXLTank · 31-10-2006, 09:15 AM

Yeah, sorry for spoiling it. I was hoping Marunde would win - well anyone but Mariusz I suppose.

just out of interest...why do you say that mate ? seems a pretty decent chap...did our ollie thompson get in the final do you know ?

Just interested to see someone else win it for a change!

Oli didn't compete - I think the only guys from the UK were Darren Sadler and Terry Hollands.

he must have been injured then as he won the british...also the coloured fella i cant remember his name...he looked a decent prospect

whats happened to glenn ross nowadays dont he compete ?

I'm not sure why Glen doesn't compete. He won UK's Strongest Man. I'm not sure how qualifications for WSM work.
