Mike Jenkins, of the USA in the 2012 WSM final, pushed Zydrunus near his limit by just barely missing out on a 220 kg max overhead log press. Mike Jenkins also won the Arnold strongman classic that year over competitors such as, Derek Poundstone, Zydrunus Savickas, and Brian Shaw... Give that man some credit.

Unfortunately Mike was gone too soon. Incredible talent.

Some insider information, just in case you didn't already know... Brian Shaw's wife, Keri Shaw.... she was actually Mike Jenkins girlfriend which is how Brian Shaw initially met Keri. Mike passed away, a few weeks after the competition of the world's strongest man final in 2013... eventually Brian and Keri got together, and the rest is history... I feel kind of bad for the family of Mike Jenkins, and his legacy.... I've never once heard Brian or Keri speak on, or reminisce about Mike. They definitely don't go out of their way to advertise this information.

Love the videos, keep it up!

I think at 43 he should not risk his shoulders too much. What do you guys think?

He has had plenty of injuries, I'm sure that he will know to stop when the signs are there. He is doing it just for fun.
