This is my favorite year for WSM. The personalities, the location, the production, and the competition are unrivaled. I'd say the golden years of WSM were 95-01.

Completely agree. I remember when they showed the marathons of these back in the day and I couldn't stop watching!

1:18:26 I think this is still one of The Daddy's proudest achievements, despite coming last in his group. Lifting the heaviest weight of anyone in the whole competition, in the searing heat of Zambia, proving that in the purest sense of the word, he truly was the world's strongest man.

But it hurts as well. Seeing that other contestant being left alone hanging there with his hand. Lol

if Magnus did just 1 squat. He would have tied Karlsen and won based on count back.

Its was a shame Jouko Ahola didnt take part of that years competition!

And he didn't take part in 2000 competition because he did have a little movie career before becoming an brand representative for met-rx

So cool to know Phil Pfister did go on to win in 2006 after that amazing display

That cheeky bastard using a ring he should have been disqualified

2:31:43 It was Zijlstra who got the false start, not Samuelsson!

You need consistency, how Rob Dixon can win 3 events and not get to the final proves it, such a disappointment for him, great strongman for his size.💪

While Girard can get to the final without winning any.

Damn skating the Elfstedentocht and being this strong, what a legend. Bijzondere jongens die Friezen!

Amazing

Great content!

Andrew raynes looks like if jarek dymek and v lalas had a baby 😅😅😅😅😅.

I'll be WSM one day and I'll win for America. I'll keep coming back and I'll be there. 5 years later: YEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!

3:19:14 Karlsen only had to do 1 stone in less than 23.75! 7th place would have been enough to win.

Crazy that deadlift is a warmup now a days.

Not cheating if it's an even field. They all on some stuff. So really, who cares.

Hahah, so many insecure ass dudes shitting on Raynes; yet no one has acknowledged how impressive it is for a 5’3 man to make it to the WSM finals, and to be able to put on so much mass. As a short dude myself, he’s a damn inspiration.

Insecure? How so? Just pointing out he was cheating. He's not 5.3, he's 5.6. I'm sure everyone that commented surely know Raynes is a great Strongman considering he reached the Final.
