[Applause] welcome back to the SPD World’s Strongest Man and the athletes are poised to take on their fourth event it’s a strongman classic the Conan’s wheel yes 440 in the arms and with this event it just doesn’t end until you end until you can take no more furthest
Athlete to carry it wins well two athletes have already competed with the Georgian janasia the current leader carrying the basket 633 de around the circle four athletes remain and here’s par oire one of the silliest Personalities in strongman though I’d never said that to his face let’s see
His SPD Power profile power wire 37 300 6’2 representing Lim Ireland I just do this for fun this is something to do the weekends it’s easy lifting heavy I love lifting weights and having a short lifespan I enjoy ripping my skin off I enjoy parting my back pulling my
Tendons 10 years is a line or 100 years as a sheep I love my crew my crew are big dudes just having fun over here in America with my friends going to try and beat some of my friends up that’s how we celebrate our friendship in Ireland you show your love by
Punching them in the face hey bro what’s up everyone talks about camaraderie between strongman there’s no fraternity there’s no Brotherhood we all hate each other I can’t wait to get out there and beat them my best friends Tom stallman’s in my group I can’t wait to crush him think
Scottish ring Tom no ring the big a lot of people would think of me as a blackard which means a a mischievous person but I’m not mischievous in any way shape or form I am innocent pow wire physically I’m the smallest mentally I’m the strongest representing Ireland even when
He’s being funny he’s being slightly terrifying d That’s it’s a good way of summing him up here we go then we’ve got two men go over 600° 360 of course one revolution 720 you get to that second revolution with this weight you’ll be doing incredibly well someone like Paul owire who doesn’t
Have the big Power Bell should do well here he’s fit he’s fast and he’s going fast well he is Ian is he in control or is he his legs just unwilling to give up I mean he’s trying to gulp in the air as best he can he’s coming towards the second
Revolution every inch counts oh it’s down 7 22 and it’s not looking good for pwi just having a little sleep I think he’s okay Darren Sadler gives him a pat ladies and gentlemen this is what it does to you it’s a brutal event it absolutely drains you of everything
Well look at this determination from par o that puts him into the lead first man to do two revolutions representing the United States Bobby Thomson well that’s said something of a challenge didn’t it for Bobby Thompson Bobby 2.0 when you’re ready the new lean Bobby yeah on the whistle let’s
See how much that Fitness work he’s been doing under his coach Lawrence Charley puts him in good stead here it’s should do so a fast start from Bobby but already needs a lot of air he’s really trying to suck the air in that’s a good plan he’s holding it right on his
Diaphragm though it’s quite a high pick well past one revolution now 722 from par OD to be I don’t think he’s going to do it Colin oh he’s certainly changing different colors in his face right now he’s fighting on though he could do oh just starting to flag now from
Thompson it’s down 649 puts him in second place but again what this must do to the body is extraordinary ladies and gentlemen put your hands together for Bobby Thomson That’s a good showing from Bobby Thompson 649 de puts him into second just ahead of Eddie Williams
There for collapse came on and again he I think he had a little sleep there for a second now the continuation of the Conan’s wheel when we return well welcome back to the SBD World’s Strongest Man well we are continuing with the Conan’s wheel two athletes remain to compete up next this
Guy from Ukraine cordak and this is a brutal event very very brutal but caka holds the world record at this set that at Europe’s strongest man he actually beat Darren Sadler’s world record a referee standing off to the side there who’s keeping an eye on him and he knows how brutal this
Is so Kaka you know much lighter man how does this work for him well you know he doesn’t have the power B and that’s key here Danny you can see it’s just sitting on his stomach it’s not crushing his diaphragm so much and he’s done one and
A half Revolution so far if he gets past the second one he’ll go ahead of P wire and take the lead well only showing the faintest signs of slowing having to just grind now he’s done it and that’s enough for him 742 that’s a great result well he he
Looks disappointed he’s shaking his head Tom stman of course won the last event he’ll be going in a minute but that is our leader at the moment Danny and uh it’ll be fast fascinating to see whether big Tom can get anywhere near this man who’s so lean and it helps so much
Representing Great Britain Tom stman well just the might the sheer power of Tom stman will be causing kodaka some concern big Tom can do extraordinary things as we saw on the log coming from behind there to take the victory hence he gets the honor of coming out last
Here and he’s going very slow my goodness it’s almost up his chin he’s picked this up way too high surely he’s not even going to get any air into his upper lungs here it’s worth pointing out as well the weather in South Carolina very different
From what he’s used to in Inon yeah no kidding he he’s almost bending himself backwards here oh my goodness that’s a just a terrible place to pick it up causing undue stress on his lower back as well Stan’s going to struggle to get and but lost here well he fights on
Doesn’t he but that’s that for Tom stalman goodness me that was a battle 598 de that’s put him in last place what a battler the winner of the will in group one so Kaka representing Ukraine Pablo caka he did enough not as much as he wanted but he takes a second
Much needed event win 742 de around that Circle the defending champ stalman really struggled last place only 598 de and that result springboards caka back into first place he’s got 19 points that’s one ahead of the American Thompson in second but two and a half points over stalman just a brutal result for
Him
