@@aeis3007 no sweat. I'm all for belts as I use one to lift one daily to lift. most people don't use suits, slingshots, briefs or figure 8s to lift. I like regular straps but eeking the bar to fingertips using figure 8s kinda suck. I like the Arnold method, but the inclusion of briefs sucked
Pa's a good character, brings some light entertainment to the strongman world, and that is really his only ticket to WSM. I think his banter badgering got him picked ahead of Tom Evens, and lets be honest, that was very questionable. It does irk me the way he uses his banter to badger Brian for a spot at the Shaw Classic. I really like to see spots earned on the contest floor.
I don't see him making it this year. just hope it won't be a similar year with him making videos begging Brian to be invited for shaw classic again....do good in shows and improve and not constantly keep asking for invites 😮💨
Hey Loz don’t know if u or Liz will see this but question what ever happened too lot of wsm guys like Mike Burke an others Who were extremely great athletes but seem too disappear! What happened too em! Or like Mike Jenkins, Johannes Arsjo! Too name a few be a really interesting video too see where there all at theses days
@@kostkaguitar I heard that as well but it would be better if it was told in a story format too actually know what happened Loz has contacts I’m sure in the world of strength an strongman too make a very informative video where the normal person wouldn’t be able too achieve
@@kostkaguitar Coincidentally I just mentioned him in a comment on Brian Shaw's video about almost losing his leg. Keri was married to him just over a year when he died.
@Scott K last year they were in Estonia and met up with Belsak. There's a video on their channel and he said he will compete at local shows but not anything big like Arnold's or WSM
@@ilc20 Nah, it's just that I see this person all over various strongman comment sections and they're always complaining or putting negative comments. Probably just a troll but its kinda tragic that they have nothing better to say
Evan Singleton is a proper contender for WSM and has actually won giants live plud a WSM event so not really a comparison with Pa. I like them both but they're not comparable.
@@25johnlowe I agree on a competition success level I moreso meant with the amount of goofy showmanship and even tho PA has not seen anywhere near the same success as Evan they have similer styles of lifting (being very explosive and quick athletes)
Pa is great, but not a top tier competitor yet, which is probably why he leans into his goofball showman gimmick so much to balance it out. Like T Rex man, he understands that strongmen are performers, and building a character for yourself is part of what gets you over.
It's good to hear confirmation that figure-8 straps will no longer be allowed in deadlift for reps. Thanks!
now we just need no suits briefs or assisting junk
@@WeTryMotorsports belts help prevent injury and increase weight
@@aeis3007 I didn't mention belts for a reason, those are widely accepted across federations
@@WeTryMotorsports sorry, you said assisting junk so I assumed you were including belts too, glad you clarified.

I love the fact Pa would have got more of kick out loz getting it wrong than right 😂
Unfortunately I don't see him as a serious competitor at least at wsm I'll root for the fella since I've seen some improvements
He's fun and has been improving. However, he is one of those guys that need a few years to tell
The best Pa we saw was last year at 2022 Britain's. He was something else at that show. If that Pa turns out, he's going to be a problem for anybody.
As long as there's no slippy matts, Pa will do OK.
Loz/Liz excellent content as always 👍
So with Robert Oberst retired, does this make Pa the World's Strongest Mouth?
U can argue he does have some trophies OB has done
yes and also wears dildo's on his head and do tik tok videos.
@@easteuropeanviking fair enough
@@easteuropeanviking Britain's is an international Podium😂 Ireland isn't a part of Britain so it's an international comp for Pa
@@easteuropeanviking Who does he insult?
So long as there are no patapillers ( Miches eyebrows ) for instance , Pa should do well. Hypnotism may come to his rescue.
Question:
If Thor was invited to WSM right now, would he make the final?
I kind of think he would haha
I'd bet on it
He needs to get his head in the game. He’s shown he can do it. 💪🏼
Both my parents were born in Ireland, so I’m a automatic fan of his always
no
Pa is no joke str8 beast
1st Irishman ever nice idea
The audacity of Big Loz questioning Aunty Liz stats 😮😮😮😮 brave man (love you both)
👍👍

He's basically the new oberst
😊
Hopefully he won't make the final and Giants Live stop crow-barring him into competitions that are WSM qualifiers.
Pa will definitely make it to the final if a lot of other contestants pull out or get diarrhea.
Uh oh, short video
Solid strongman, but don't see Pa in the final this year.
I feel like Pa hasn't been great lately.
love me some pa
Don’t see him making the finals or stone off
More talk and No walk. Definitely no.
I don't see him making it this year.
just hope it won't be a similar year with him making videos begging Brian to be invited for shaw classic again....do good in shows and improve and not constantly keep asking for invites 😮💨
That begging was so cringe 😅
6 days out, he can still hurt himself...again
Waste of a spot. The Irish Oberst.
Biggest waste of a spot in this comp.
He's been to world's more than once, but just the other times he's gone he's never made it to the start line
Last year for one

Mike Jenkins unfortunately passed away in 2013….
Matjaz belsak also, I believe he had to have some work done on his hip

The Worst Strongman Ever in my opinion.
I mean to even get to that level you gotta be better than the worst
you only ever have negative things to say don't you?

Pa is basicly the uks version of Evan singleton.
Oberst*
Except for the fact he's not even from the UK
Evan Singleton is a proper contender for WSM and has actually won giants live plud a WSM event so not really a comparison with Pa. I like them both but they're not comparable.

True but Evan is a legitimate strongman with giants live wins and podiums. Pa is working his way up atm.
