Twas fun!
IS THE NOTIFICATIONS ALLOWED FOR ANYONE ON THIS CHANNEL??? help
No thanks
Martins!!!! I just fucking found your channel! You are an inspiration!
it is clear you have never chopped wood in your life... why did you have to stop???? it was only 10 min.... bro people chop wood for days straight so they do not freeze in the winter.. you could not make 10 min....
I love the "she only beat us due to superior skill and capability."
You are really setting up a gold standard for strength sport documentaries. Keep this up!
Thank you! Make sure to tell your friends! :D
Couldn't agree more!
The Bearded Guy if memory serves me is “Hacksaw Jim Dugan” formerly of the WWF!
@@markduncan6690 Never put those two together. Now, I'll think of Hacksaw, whenever I see ML.
I work for a basque company and know a little about the culture. The way you present the country, the people and the sport is so beautiful and well done, love it. Folks gonna be proud over there
Thank you so much! Spread the word :D
they should be. European cultures dont get any recignition anymore, not at a per-nation basis. Outside of stereotypes of le pizza and baguette, its radio silence on the mainstream
This should be a Netflix series, love your voiceover and the respect that you put in every sentence. Beautiful! thank you
Omar Isuf was on History Channel. Anything is possible
Thank you! Pass it on! Show some people :D We love what we do.
nah netcrack will kill it somehow, someway. disrespect the history or something.
Romark definitely doesn't get enough credit for this editing. This is world class production
“She cheated and only beat us due to skill and superiority” 😂😂😂
XD
I am Basque, living outside with my family, And this made me cry. Thanks, very very good quality work
The only bad thing about these are that I wish they were longer. Incredible work you guys do
They do small serialized videos. I like the short length. Easily digestible content.
Thank you! We may compile it all into one documentary along the lines... until then, enjoy! And spread the word!
They get paid off this so gotta spread all the material that was recorded. Smart idea.
I came here expecting a normal vlog and I was so taken away by this documentary that it felt like 1 minute has passed when the video ended. I live in Spain and I've been to the basque country many times but I didnt know about this sport. Thank you for shedding a light on it.
Thank you for watching! Show your friends :D We love what we do and want to do more of it!
I, too live in Spain and didn't know this existed. It is SO compelling! Beautiful sport, beautiful tradition.
La pelota mano en todas sus modalidades son yamada pelota vasca y todo este deporte sale del campo en desafíos también es cierto ke los deportistas vascos de todas las modalidades de deporte rural fue la jeneraciones pasadas la última hornada más de 35 años pero ay muchas pruebas con animales buelles vacas caballos burros carneros ectra antaño gallos carneros ectra
@@MartinsLicis i miss your old intro with the pop music, shades, and your entire team goofing around....
As a Basque American and former Basque cultural dancer who danced in the first Jialdi in Boise, this brings me great joy to see. I have wonderful memories of the stone lifting and splitting competitions.
As a basque, this makes me so proud
Es un ejemplo de cómo presentar nuestra cultura al mundo. A veces se necesita de la mirada nueva de alguien de fuera para celebrar aquello nuestro que damos por supuesto. Qué gran vídeo/documental.
Me too!
fml. I'm from Barcelona but my wife's mother was from the Basque Country,,, she passed away due to cancer a month ago at the age of 61 years of age. I cant help but cry throughout the whole video. She always wanted to travel the three of us there to show us where she grew up. Thank you for the trip Martins.
This is such a superb insight into the Basque culture. Martins you've shown such respect and love for it and it shows. I love how Maite Perurena says that 'this is not just sport, it's a family, a culture, a tradition', very moving words. Despite my name I was born and grew up in Donostia, Gipuzkoa, and I can tell this video is true celebration of one of the most idiosyncratic and defining aspects of Basque culture. Much love strongman, well done.
❤ Netflix…sign this up!!!
This is a series I could binge watch ❤❤❤
I loved this so much, but wish it was longer ❤❤❤
Yes please, Netflix, do sign us up! :D ... please share with your friends, and maybe one day it will!
I find strength unknown so moving. Every episode gives me goosebumps. It touches something primal. Theres a purity to it. A pure expression of humanity, untouched by technology or politics. Just people, coming together, to celebrate what they can do.
Holy cow, should I comment on how beautiful Basque country is? How interesting and lively their history is? Their sports history? How well this documentary was made? Choices, choices...
I love Martins humbleness - he has won worlds strongest man and other top comps, but he acts as though he has lots to learn during these documentaries. That's a sign of wisdom and humbleness right there.
As most have stated you guys rock with your storytelling and cinematography. I spent 17 years in the US Army and haven't worked out in about 10 years. My youngest son and I recently started in the gym and it's so motivating. @17ish minutes I got emotional and it goes to show what strength means to me and how much you guys get it! Thank you
That's beautiful... reminds me why we do what we do! Please share the video!
Thank you Licis for understanding and loving our sport the way we love it ourselves. And thank you for taking it and making it known far from our borders. Here you will always be welcome. "Gure etxera datorrena, bere etxean dago", "Whoever comes to our house, is in his house".
This Basque series have been amazing, as a spanish person living in Australia, really enjoyed discovering more about my own country and strength sports, thank you!
Un comentario que dice mucho de tu persona Guillermo, muchas gracias!! Y que sepas que falta gente como tú en este pais ❤
I can't tell how many times your videos got me tears of joy in my eyes. You are sharing culture here, pure sportsmenship and joy of sharing experiences. Thank you really really much!
The production quality my man... Props to everyone involved you are doing an amazing job!
Wow. You guys are doing something that supercedes anything else out there. We have a Basque Center where I live in Boise, ID. But the strength heritage in their culture is something new and fascinating to me. Thank you for bringing these beautiful people and their sports to light.
My pleasure! Please share the video! We want to keep doing this. :D
Mira todos los vídeos Demetrius y modalidades en pelota con animales ectra en el país vasco francés cambian algunas cosas pero el fondo es el mismo yo soy Vasco y participe en sokatira ya Ace más de 44 años y carreras de burros o en Vasco asto lasterketa en euskera pero ay decenas de deportes del campo la Malloria ke falta personal para hacerlo y darle vida muchas veces a nivel internacional
Keep leaning hard into the Strength Unknown series. You guys really have something here. Monetize it well and grow this thing. Excellent content 👍
Deffo something more to this than short youtube videos.
Thank you for showing the beauty of Basque rural sport. I think eventually these will be the videos that people return to, again and again.
"But there is GOATS!..."
I love this guy
This is some of the best content I've seen from anyone in a long time! Thank you so much for bringing this kind of content to us 💕
Guys, this series is amazing!! Fascinating and so professionally done! Really awesome!
I’m really loving this content. Thank you for introducing many of us to this beautiful place and culture!
The protection is soooo good congratulations. Its been a while since a TH-cam series got me excited as much as this one
Production quality is insane. Phenomenal job Martins and Romark!
Wow! What a beautiful place and the fact that the entire area breaths original strongman makes it even more amazing.
Love this series! Keep up the good work.
Amazing job Martins and Romark!! Keep the content coming, Strength Unknown is awesome
The moment "we are man, we were born for this" and then Martin chops like my 4 years old niece. But ye, its scarry tool if one has no experience with it.
Also seems like this is the kind of sport made for women, Nerea looks amazing.
Such a nice people.
Overall amazing video, thank you for it.
Stumbled on this series and OMG the quality is insane and Martin's willingness to learn new things and cultures is amazing, I have always been your fan Martin. Keep making these series and I will share as much as I can.
Thanks Martins! This was beautiful and interesting. I told you and Romark at OSG we love this series. I'm glad you are still killing it!
Getting to meet so many incredibly unique types of strength athletes from throughout the world is incredible to watch. Love the series and great video again Martins / Romark!
Right!? We want to keep going, meet more unique athletes and make so many more videos like this. Please share with your friends. :D
Another golden episode, thanks for your work this is amazing !
I'm in awe of the video. The subject, but also the video quality in itself is right where I want it. Sublime
I'm loving this series, great job Martins and Romark!
Love the videos you and Romark are putting out. Keep it up!!
Romark is such a fantastic videographer and artist.
Like many others have said, the production quality on these videos is incredible.
But it's also fantastic that you constantly go out of your way to shed light on some of the most under-appreciated sports and athletes. These stone lifters are some of the strongest athletes in the world and i would never have even heard of them without a video like this one 👏👏👏
Fascinating! Such an interesting culture that I’d probably never heard of if it wasn’t for this series. Thank you.
This was entertaining and the production value of this is O M G.
Great video, romark your skills in production are amazing. I’m so excited for the next episode
Incredible work Martins and Romark. Thank you for this.
Incredible work Martins and Romark. I cannot wait to see what other amazing strength sports you'll unearth for us in the future!!!
Man, this was an absolute joy to watch! Loved every damn second of it. Beautifully narrated, awesome video editing and nice to have learned something interesting today!
The production quality from you guys are only getting better as is your your contents, great work team!
Storytelling, editing, music/sound.. wow! Now this is a Documentary boys 👏👏 Well done
Oh yeah you just struck gold. We definitely need more unique strength sports videos like this from all over the world
absolute first-class video!! i just wish it was longer. Fantastic work!!
The production quality on this video is insane. Keep this shit up Martins!
This was an amazing video! Story telling, education and genuine atmosphere. Thank you.
This is awesome I love the whole series.
Love the production of your videos! Very professional. 💪
I really enjoy your strength unknown episodes and I’m excited to see more this year! Good luck with your recovery, but I just hope you find what makes you guys happy!
The production quality is ridiculous. Romark is just as world class in his field of expertise as Martins is in his. Fantastic piece of content, thank you.
Quality is insane ! Thanks for the video
Maybe not in Martins’ wheelhouse, but the Basques also crank out endurance athletes like nobody’s business. (5 time TdF champion Indurain, among a multitude of pro cyclists, distance runners and alpinists). A lot of these events, especially this woodchopping modality has a hella endurance component as well.
I think this series gives us a window into the culture that produces so many great athletes in a multitude of sports.
These people are incredible athletes. . . blows my mind... it's all the hills... gotta be the hills.
@@MartinsLicis I think so too, but it’s deeper than that. My father is from Galicia, which is on the western end of Spain. The hills, their connection to the land, but also - the Basque way is also hyper disciplined, organized and industrious as hell with an emphasis on doing things well - work hard, play hard, eat well. You apply that to sports, it’s gonna produce some ringers. 😉
They are famous for it amongst their fellow Spaniards, because in many respects they lived amongst yet apart from the rest of Spain - basically because the Basque existed in that region before the Romans who laid the foundation for what Spain became, arrived - like their own little planet nestled in the northern frontier between Spain and France. Its really cool you got to see that live. It’s a very special place.
I do hope your hosts took you to see Athletic Bilbao play at San Mames. Mind blowing soccer experience. 👍
Soy fan de Atletico de Bilbao!!
@@feliciacoffey6832 Yo soy Madridista pero tengo un gran respeto por los Leones y el futbol vasco.
Best strength channel by a huge margin. Wildly entertaining and informative!
Thanks again. Really love the series.
I hope you both continue to do stuff like this well into the future. Awesome stuff!
Nice production quality and narration man! Some of the highest quality videos on these topics. Keep up the great work.
What a well-made, extremely informative documentary! Keep up the great work!
Exploring some old culture, beautiful scenery, and heavy lifting. Amazing!
Your awesome Martins! I’m really enjoying the new content
Serious production quality man, keep it up and enjoy the time there!!!
Another beautiful piece, guys!
I could legitimately watch these all day keep it up man you're doing something special here
Fantastic stuff. Love seeing this and the different strength sports around the world.
Man love your channel! Beautiful work!
Another great episode. Keep em coming!
This is sick! Loved it. Will watch the series
Dude not only are you the worlds strongest man, you have an amazing narration voice! WOW. This video was stunning and the passion these people have for the sport is so infectious and fun to watch.
My only complaint is that it's too short, I'm here for a documentary, I'm happy to take everything in! Awesome series thought loving it all!
Impressive, but gave me anxiety, was waiting for the axe to split the feet haha! Full metal boots and chin coverage would maybe get me to try this 😅
I was even more nervous trying it! Crazy scary. Please pass the video along :D We want to make more content like this.
I really like this vídeo such the context and quality truly good guys nice work
The production is insanely good. 11/10 Romark work is insanely good. Exceptional.
Incredible place! Loving these videos I hope one day these will be shown on tv around the world.
These series are so incredible!
I hope you enjoyed your stay in Spain! awesome series, excited to see the rest.
Production of this is just insane. Love it
Beautiful landscape, food, people and stones. Love these strength unknown.
What an incredible documentary! Can't wait for the next one!
Amazing video, cant wait for the next part
The lifting "flow" of those cylindrical stones is really slick. Seems like a phenomenal total-body workout. Great stuff, love the series!
To echo, other comments. Outstanding production, would love to see a full documentary. Used to love your early videos from the training hall, but this is next level.
Fantastically done video. Really professional and classy
Amazing video! The culture, the history in this sport blows me away! Your gracious commentary is a cut above imo. Well done all the way around!
Yet again you've pulled off a very professional short documentary! Your material keeps getting better. I can say with 100% honesty,you have the best strongman channel! Keep up the great work and always look forward to watching your videos! 💪💪💪
Comments like this warm my heart! Thank you! Please share with your friends 💪
These documentaries are one the best idea on TH-cam I ever saw
The story of the shop had me choked up man, beautiful stuff! All of the love fellas
This was def very interesting, she not only has the technique down but her endurance is nuts.
She's a machine!
So happy I stumbled upon this series..!!
That you guys are never afraid to make fun of yourselves is really endearing and fun
Wow this video is really inspiring! I just watched you achieve your goals and overcome obstacles to success and I was blown away by your determination and perseverance. You really inspired me to work towards my own goals and not stop half way. Thanks for this video, it really made an impact on me !
Really enjoyed this one too. Great work guys, hope you get tons and tons of views.
This was awesome. Thanks Martins.
