I really think one reason why hooper is so good is that he is so stable mentally.. hes powerful but very thoughtful guy.. very strong combination. It was like at wsm where he but stoltman at the carry.. stoltman was almost to casual and he just waited and dug deep as tom kinda went 'yeah thats enough'
The confidence it takes to actually pull a "I didnt come here to get 2nd" comment..and then back that up and kill the field...kudos to the dude...that is legit hardcore..that is a modern day Ricky Bobby alright
Feel bad for novakov , he was such a beast and hes still good but really dropped.. tough situation to keep training right to. I hope he can get back that crazy explosive power he used to have.. im wondering if hes almost carring too much weight on his frame, some guys its great to bulk up but it doesn't seem to be doing him any favours.. like u would want it to make your classic static lifts better, but it doesnt seem to have even done that for him. Such a great competitor to watch when hes in form.
I think he needs to take long time off and heal all injuries first before competing again. He is just making it all worse and for nothing. Not like he will win if he keeps going this way. He is still super young and can heal properly and come back better than ever before.
So is there an approved competition carry method? I was under the impression that there are multiple ways to carry them. Original included some sort of sumo stance and carrying heavy stone in front and lighter behind you. Then came the modern method of carrying it on both sides which allegedly is a harder method to carry.
@@tonybarfridge4369 Nah even if he won the elephant bar deadlift event, he would still be no.2. Not to mention he would have to improve his PB by like 160lbs if he wants to beat Thor at Deadlift, which will never happen at this stage of his career.
Strongman already has plenty of "racing" events like farmers, yoke or the loading race. This one is about enduring pain, total body control and mental toughness
The stare at the crowd

I'm just stupidly impressed by Big Mama at 8:53 and 9:08. This was the most impressive thing at the whole show.
Thank you Rogue!
Great video!
I love how strong the women are. Crazy
How are there only 10 comments.

lol no, the split stance is strictly for picking them and standing still for time. Trying to move like that would blow your knees out if not your back
In 99% Canadian …. I’m voting for him . #thenewbeast2024
where did this talent come from? now kieliskowzki will have it harder getting his first wsm gold medal.

This is all just training to bring in groceries for mom lol
Brawo 👏👏dla Kieliszkowski i Ziółkowski 💪💪💪🇵🇱🇵🇱.
Mateusz ❤ Polska
Where’s thor
Kkieliskowski still no2😢
If he could improve his deadlift he'd be no1 perhaps
@@tonybarfridge4369 it will be near impossible

@@haitianxu Being number 2 would be an honour I believe. Most of them can't attain that.
They should let them tape their thumbs.
pain
Leave this in the Highland Games.
Hell no
what’s a more popular sport?
That was so lame! Lower the weight that we can have a real race and not stumbling giants!
It's worlds strongest man not worlds most graceful sprinter

I disagree. These are the dinnie stones, those stones are legendary.
