I new it would be stoltman and flowers on the podium but congratulations to Flynn Amazing performance by all the Athletes but Flynn showing his growth in the last year Another Britain strongest from Scotland 💪🏼
Luke looked a forlorn character during this, perhaps understandably... Maybe the extra focus helped? Maybe it was just the way the video was edited but he looked like he kept himself to himself...
Thought the live stream had a rather flat atmosphere whenever Luke Stoltman was around. I sensed discomfort at times and it wasn't a good watch, leaving aside the technical issues. Clearly a new normal for "I'm just doing my job" Luke Stoltman, although perhaps more authentic than his past over-the-top assertions that it was all for his family which I found tiresome. Most people don't need to shove their family in other people's faces when they are content. He seems a very conflicted man.
@@HBTeamaker we were there and there definitely wasn’t a lot of interaction on the floor between him and the other guys. The crowd was very much on side with him though
Not surprising though. Giving speeches for years on family values and resilience doesn't really go hand in hand with cheating on your wife who's just given birth.
@@douglasnisbet1189 I agree I just didn't hear it on the stream, I could only tell his cheers were not so loud like normal. I know people will say separate the athlete from the man but for me I enjoy backing people whose character I like, not just who performs the best in competition.
@@NicBianchi-1 not in this case.... your acts have to follow your mouth. Luke prayed "family, family, family" and then this. never the less.... his problems seems to let him bring his head back in the game. his performance was amazing.
No matter what Luke accomplishes as a strong man from here out. It is all dwarfed by the fact that he left his wife and child in the worst way possible. The true measure of a man is not his physical strength only. It's also his ability to endure for his family. And obviously, Luke wasn't able to endure for his family. He just wanted what he wanted. To put sexual desire above your own wife and child is the weakest form of a man.
Probably keeping his head down and getting on with it. If you played a character of the nice guy family man and it turns out not to be true, it might be hard to know how to act around people when you see them again.
Shane turned on him so fast on insta, I would not want to talk to him either, and it was mostly shanes cronies competing as well , glad he won and stuck a middle finger up them all
@@Gndlf_TheOrange that sounds like a blood pressure thing, I had the same thing smashed my head to bits, done a lot of hill walking to improve fitness and never happened again, and funny enough I'm stronger than ever at 57 fit
Well...Luke Stoltman with the victory. I don't think anyone predicted that. He's undeniably still an elite strongman, and this win adds a lot to his legacy. Kudos to Shane Flowers for winning silver and thereby making a definitive statement upon his return from injury. He should be a favorite in his WSM heat to make the final. Very sad for Luke Richardson and Adam...they should still get WSM invites...
Luke will I'm hoping Adam does but he hasn't shown much as injured most of this year, all depends on his recovery I guess, certainly hope so as always like watching him compete and feel he's had a lot of bad luck with some outstanding performances thrown in
YES, Luke Stoltman 👍👍👍 Go hold your head up high, you WON, and it is OK to be proud 👍👍☀️☀️👍👍. You were in hiding long enough, now come back and be the skilled strongman, and genuinely nice man, that you are! Your name in Danish means "proud man", and no matter what unfortunate things may have occurred in your private life, you have the right to a good life with great achievements in both your sport and your general life. Congratulations with the title.
Apart from Tom Stoltman, the standard & consistency of British strongmen is really poor at the moment, judged by international standards, at least compared to the past, whereas the women are doing great!
As a brit, I agree. If you look at the top 10 to 12 American's right now which includes names like Trey, Lucas, Evan, Austin, the standard in the UK is significantly lower. I'm not convinced half of this line-up would have made top 10 at OSG.
I think maybe it's more changing of the guards. Big names have retired in British Strongman, Hicks and Bishop aren't the athletes they once were, Luke is good at this level but no better than 7th at wsm, Luke Richardson struggles with injury.
@@baronvonfizten7117 Nope, time heels all wounds, he'll bounce back. I think he's hitting the gym hard atm, probably be a good year of strong man for him if he avoids injury.
@baronvonfizten7117 you ask that like he got drunk and had a 1 night stand.lol there is a difference between making a mistake, or even making a couple mistakes and pretending to be someone you're not.
Luke, it's good to see you back in the contest. I am still a fan of you, head up. Everybody makes something wrong in his life and nobody knows what happened before. Again: head up!
Thanks for saying that. I wouldn‘t even use the word „wrong“. There are always two sides to the story, and as I understand, we basically have only heard his wife‘s side, who is very hurt and emotional. We don’t know what really happened and it’s none of our business.
He cheated with at least one woman and who knows when he started. Before Kushi was pregnant, during? All while bragging about his great home life. There is no other side of the story. He is scum.
People’s choice to live with regular sickness is beginning to show in all sports. But the denial is still as solid as ever so I’m sure this comment won’t be appreciated….by the regularly sick. Which is almost all of you. Choices eh. Choices. I reckon Neil could shorten those intros by half yknow. 😂
Luke stuck it to his haters he looked a different man angry focused no friends needed ill do it alone , all them strongmen that hit him when he was low ,he just shoved it to them
You say haters as if it's not deserved. He's not the victim here. He's morally all over the place when he's pretended to be the husband and family man.
@Gndlf_TheOrange yes deserved but his so called friends didn't have to hit him when he was down publicly , infront of the world they publicly attacked him.
it was a great show, unfortunatelly the live stream did suck. the last stone run was not even shown. stream collspsed and then it told me (5 seconds later) "event has ended". even though, Luke has not even started. the rest of the event.... 240p 15 frames. 🫤 and NO it was not my internet connection.... when I checked with other videos in the event breaks I have had the usual viewing quality. at the end, good show, shitty viewing expirience. 😢 thx for the BTS 👍
Exactly the same for me sadly. Had to constantly refresh the whole stream because I got the message saying "player error" and then it was yeah 240p 15 fps the whole stream and lagged and stopped every 15 seconds for roughly 5-10 seconds. Don't know how I powered through until the end where in the stone run event it just stopped when it hadnt even finished. Kind of regret spending my saturday on this sadly :/ but good show tho. Hope it will be better next time 🙌
Yep, streamed off xbox series x with ethernet connection, exactly the same experience - i pay every month for official strongman to help grow the sport, but very much considering doing away with that now
IF only Paddy had got 1 on the log. He was soo close. Still much, much better than last year.
If my strongman point math is correct, Paddy with 1 rep on the log would've got him on the podium.
1 rep on log would have put him in second afaik@@zackriti464
Aunti Liz’s chair is brilliant😭
Highlight of my night 😂
I new it would be stoltman and flowers on the podium but congratulations to Flynn Amazing performance by all the Athletes but Flynn showing his growth in the last year Another Britain strongest from Scotland 💪🏼
Amazing competition this year, glad the competitors gave it their all!
So happy for Shane 🥹 and great to see the new up and coming talent performing so well. Andy, Paddy and Ben all so exciting to watch 🙌🏻
Shane is a rat turning on Luke so fast on social media, complete weirdo
@@baronvonfizten7117 Sorry??? Shane's the rat?? You deserve a gold medal for the mental gymnastics it must have taken to reach that conclusion
@@baronvonfizten7117give your head a serious wobble
@@baronvonfizten7117 dude, EVERYONE turned on Luke.
Luke's a POS and deserves all the hate he gets.

Brilliant commentary Great show Well done Luke and Shane n Andy
Any idea who the Red haired Scottish woman is that was commentating is she a strong woman.
@Bigdawg4plates-e1x Nicole Buchan
2:20 coach Loz even on the tash 😂
13:23 great moment, Shane coaches Ben so even though he didn't get the rep nice that they got to go together
Great show, Paddy Haynes performance was extremely impressive, i could have done without Gav giving me such a fright though!
4:10 Kane's far too comfortable with that glove 😳
Great video thanks. Interesting to hear the boo's for Luke before the atlas stones.

@@NicBianchi-1 I can relate to that 👍
Loved it❤
The Mohawk beard guy in the beginning totally looks like thor from side profile. Very impressed with Luke.
11:45 I'm more impressed with how fast Bishop was able to put the wraps on than his deadlift speed!
Anyone know what happened to bish was he injured
@@JohnDuffy-bq8wg Colin said that he wasn’t feeling well. No mention of an injury
An amazing level and they seem a great bunch of young men.

Congratulations to the highland oak! Luke stulman. What a powerhouse still.
Oops stoltman
Magnus bagging Liz's chair, lol.
Well done LUKE S 🌶🌶
Wow! What a roller-coaster of an show! This may have been one of the hardest shows to try and predict beforehand. Amazing performances 👏
I wonder if Luke's come across any cold shoulders 🤔
10:34 dudes left delt
Looks like an injection gone bad 😅
what was the 13:04 about?
Colin looks like a cast member from Newsies
OOOOOHHHH! Loz and Rebecca on the table! C'mon Rebecca! Chase Barbora!
Well done Luke
Congrats Luke! Well done mate👍
Great comp. Hope Luke, Andy & Adam are OK. Shame about the livestream ☹ Well done Luke🌶🌶🌶
😊
Never in doubt😤
Luke getting better with age
Great show but the stream was shit
Didn’t pay to watch a loading screen most of the time
Doesnt Luke s want to speak te anybody?
Probably keeping his head down and getting on with it. If you played a character of the nice guy family man and it turns out not to be true, it might be hard to know how to act around people when you see them again.

What a comeback for Luke, you can never count him out. Great athlete!
Shame about him as a person though.
Great athlete and garbage husband father and human being? Who cares what he ever does
Calling it now next year paddy haynes is destroying this comp 2 event wins and a zero in the log and to only miss podium by 1 point says everything
The way Gavin fainted on the deadlift was crazy
I think gav could still lose another 10 or 20 kg, the extra speed would offset the small power loss, he is really affected by heat apparently
Went down like a redwood😂 luckily didn't hit his head, I don't think.
@@Gndlf_TheOrange that sounds like a blood pressure thing, I had the same thing smashed my head to bits, done a lot of hill walking to improve fitness and never happened again, and funny enough I'm stronger than ever at 57 fit
@JohnDuffy-bq8wg yeah it would be. Blood pressure drops after a heavy valsalva. Good for you that's wicked.
Luke 'The Shagger' Stoltman
Good one, I call him Puke Stoltman, the Highland Joke.
Is Luke going to get a ganja leaf next to his current chest tatoo?
Too soon?

Luke already has invites any as he podiumed his last two comps
Luke will I'm hoping Adam does but he hasn't shown much as injured most of this year, all depends on his recovery I guess, certainly hope so as always like watching him compete and feel he's had a lot of bad luck with some outstanding performances thrown in
Well done Luke 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
All the guys who are staple invites to worlds performing poorly, Graham, Luke R and Adam all extremely fragile athletes, it’s a shame
When is Gav going to accept that he needs better body composition. Passes out and faints in every show..
What a shame Luke won. I was cheering for anyone else to podium except him. What a slimeball.
!!!
Goodjob Luke!
Well done Luke still my favourite strongman
❤ 🏴
i am britain's strongest man. i will not reveal myself though
Luke done great here, His personal business is his own business, but don't bullshit your fans.
@@YARROWS9 the comment he made about being the past, present and future had us howling where were sat in the arena 😂😂😂
@@Sanquharwarrior682what did he say?
@ can’t remember exactly, it was in his IG stories responding to questions about it

Sorry but will never root for Luke again after what he did.
YES, Luke Stoltman 👍👍👍
Go hold your head up high, you WON, and it is OK to be proud 👍👍☀️☀️👍👍.

Luke Stoltman to podium at his next WSM calling it now
Seriously?
Nope
Not a chance
Come on Luke! Mon i fish. 2025, year of the Stoltmans.
First comment? Thanks for all you guys are doing for Strongman. Congrats to the contestants.
Apart from Tom Stoltman, the standard & consistency of British strongmen is really poor at the moment, judged by international standards, at least compared to the past, whereas the women are doing great!
Big disagree, on there day luke stoltman, Graham hicks, luke Richardson and bish are all world class
Luke Richardson is made of quavers. Hicks is not anywhere near world class.
Worst comment I've ever seen on here, the talent is deep, young and progressive
As a brit, I agree. If you look at the top 10 to 12 American's right now which includes names like Trey, Lucas, Evan, Austin, the standard in the UK is significantly lower. I'm not convinced half of this line-up would have made top 10 at OSG.

Speak for yourself ya wet lettuce XD

have you led a perfect life ?
@@baronvonfizten7117 Nope, time heels all wounds, he'll bounce back. I think he's hitting the gym hard atm, probably be a good year of strong man for him if he avoids injury.
