Tore one of his brachialis. Dude normally has a world class gripHe placed 5th, but I heard was injured.
Because Rogue pours in good money for the prize and production, worlds strongest man has the benefit of owning the Name, but arguably the Arnold is a better test of strength and is better run.yea the Arnold was great on youtube but WSM is always so late

During the overhead medley I believeWhat event did he tear it on?
If we're talking about hand/grip strength your brachialis has little to do with it. It's primary function is elbow flexion when your hand/wrist is pronated.
The 1st winner Bruce Wilhelm is 73 and still alive . 320lbs in his prime, back in 1978 and 79 . He helped organize powerlifting and other events afterwards and pretty much walked away from the sport.What's the average life span of these guys?

He finished it fine though some of these injuries will add up when moving there ridiculous weights plus he has replaced Big Z as the most experienced guy in the Finals.Brutal
i thought it was during the atlas stones (which would mean it had no real impact on the result) at least in his last video thats when he mentioned hearing it popDuring the overhead medley I believe
Why they all got to be white?
LeBron would be the GOAT strongman confirmedIn this case. Brian Shaw and Thor both over 6'6 packed on muscle over long careers and have incredible form on their deadlifts and squats with their strength, you are right it's weird you would think the distance they would have to lift and the angles would pose issues but they have adjusted their stances and maximized their flexibility to get optimal results. Also helps they were athletes before they rolled into strongman, both played basketball.
