This is the one that I remember the most. I was watching it as it aired. I believe Shaw broke the world record time which is why it was such a big deal as it was the shortest held record in history! It was such a shame to see his sheer anguish. Alas, such is the nature of competition.

Bouncing his balls. Big red rocket. Nice play Loz.
Great stuff Loz. One of the funniest moments for me was with Jimmy Pollock in 1990 or 91. His athlete liked to be slapped in the face before a big lift, and Pollock accidentally slapped the wrong competitor before an overhead stone lift. It did seem to help him though! :D

Do more like this That video was phenomenal great job uncle loz
Rpe one million got me 🤣🤣🤣
OD Wilson had some weird shit done to him in his day.
I lost it when u said “zydrunas drowning in the background”
Oh the champagne hold😂 That was impressive as well as hilarious
Growing up for me was all about Mariusz Pudzianowski, Biz Z and Brian Shaw. Glad I got to see these legendary athletes in their prime throwing around big weight!
Magnus is #1 imo. You are literally an equipment tester , no expectations and you won the title ! And 3 more for great measure proving you’re no fluke

I completely forgot about Kaz knocking that barrel from MVM's shoulder and nearly killing OD. If ever the back elbow to break a nose was warranted and then an ass-whooping from your own teammate expected, this was it. Awesome content as usual and much easier to watch than the injuries again. :)
That was one hell of a trip. Loved it 👏🏼
I watched a video Thor and Rob Kearney log pressing at WSM 2019 recently and I thought it was so impressive that Thor strict pressed (due to his foot injury) 9 reps to tie Luke and Rob

Some of those old events are kind of great. Would love to see them again.
Some of the old strongman events were crazy dangerous
The funniest thing is they seem like maneating monsters in the competition, but in their personal life, the majority of them are the sweetest, kindest and most positive people around.

Lets go! A new video from the man himself 👌
So many great videos in one place. Really liked this format.
Greatest video yet!!! Well done!! Sharing
This the best video ever, gave me chills with memories. Thank you for making this Big Loz
Epic video! Thank you so much to you and Liz for the work you put into your videos. Making lockdown 3.0 so much easier to deal with
Brain Shaw, Robert Oberst, Eddie Hall, and Nick Best are LEGENDARY!
Outstanding video Loz. Thanks so much for upload
I'm so glad you included Kieliszkowski's 4 stone lift to shoulder... I remember watching that live and I was busy picking my jaw up off the floor for the next 15 minutes. Must have re-wound and watched that 15-20 times, couldn't believe what I had seen.
They just mailed out the phonebook that covered my little town and the four surrounding it...it used to be huge, but everyone has cellphones instead of landlines these days...it was basically a pamphlet!
12:40 pro-gamer move from OD.
Thank you for amazing content ! Much love big man
Thanks for the great content well done
Shaw vs Thor on the keg toss was an awesome moment. Brian is generally so modest - picked the wrong time to make an exception!
Mateusz has always been one of my favs, he always seems to have a great attitude and is smaller than the other guys but lifts just as heavy. But watching him do those stones with a torn bicep was incredible and made me respect him on a whole other level
Top notch compilation there, Loz, thanks.

The best video you ever put out Big Loz🔥
Thanks for that Loz. Really enjoyed watching.
I have gotta say Kieliszkowski has had some of my most open mouth moments! His overhead medley in the WSM 2019 final 🤯🔥 the Cyr record at The Arnold, the stone to shoulder (as in your countdown) was nuts, the Viper pressing of the log :.. but equally his overall abilities with vehicle pulls etc. Mikhail’s deadlifts - inspirational..... Truly the moment that I always remember and smile though has to be the Brian / Thor keg toss - even if Brian hadn’t said what he said, Thor’s throwing was phenomenal. Great countdown Loz 🤘🏻
It’s difficult to for those who never saw him compete back then to understand just how mainstream famous Geoff Capes was in the early 1980s, probably much more so than Eddie is these days - absolutely everyone knew who Capes was. To watch him compete with JPS was the stuff of legend!!

The most impressive thing about Kieliszowski's stone to shoulder lift was how everyone else failed so badly at this including Thor
The crazy thing about Thor's deadlift to me is that without those straps it could have passed in a powerlifting meet
You made a good video, Loz. REAL GOOD ONE!
