Unofficial Results Spreadsheets (Finals Tab at Bottom)
Atlas Stones: Shaw vs. Savickas
Truck Pull:
Yoke:
Deadlift: Shaw vs Bjornsson 8:6
Bjornsson seriously injured there in the deadlift video, or just super friggin tired?
I guess only tired. He did truck pull afterwards and got 2nd place
Looks like his grip gave out and the momentum carried him over.
While not among the top three or even five, it’s really impressive to see Mark Felix getting eighth place at 49 years of age.
Thanks for the spoiler alert……. :/
Yeehaw for Brian Shaw!
Gotta love all the competitors but it’s awesome to see two Americans in the top five. Not sure that’s happened before but it’s gotta be rare, so many amazing strongman competitors from Scandinavia and Europe.
Has anyone been able to locate any not-yet-removed recordings for this? According to the TV schedule it should’ve aired already, but I can’t seem to find anything.
