If it wasn't for these two and World's Strongest Fan, I would honestly have no idea what was going on. I honestly have no idea where GL or WSM posts their stuff because I probably unfollowed them at some point during one of their mass spamming of one athlete. And even when I do see stuff from either of them, it's sparse or late to the party.

I bet even WSM is watching this to find out who is competing

Thanks for covering

It's amazing to see how many well known, top level athletes have been at WSM multiple times yet never made the final. Really goes to show how much of an accomplishment that alone is even if you end up bottom 3.

Great content as always. No word of Graham Hicks? Looks like he’s still training well

I’ll be there, VIP tickets!! Last yr was fun.

Cant wait for this show.

Great video as always a few surprises in athlete pick like no Maxime boudreault unless his lat is still not good to go

Is WSM going to attempt another live stream to announce the groups on Tuesday? Or should we just watch Hoopers live stream and wait for the text message?

Are there any changes to viewing possibilities or we are dependent on the spreadsheet as always?

So excited to see how Kane Francis does at WSM 💪🏼

7:07 glad to see my coach Nathan Goltry competing this year 💪

I believe in Bobby

So besides Thor, major absentees are Kieliszkowski, Licis and Novikov. Wide Pavlo too.

As someone who is about lozs size I'd like to see a video about what kind of weights should someone be lifting raw to be somewhat competitive in the strongman and how people get into it.

What a lineup. I know Mitch Hooper and Tom Stoltman are favorites, but let’s not Forget Trey Mitchell has won the Shaw classic repeatedly, and he can definitely win WSM. I want Luke Stoltman up there in podium too. Why is the podium only for 3 ???😂

@@thomasrosendahl2783 Trey maybe, but I seriously believe Tom could take first place. There are always surprises in competition.

Honestly, strongest man on earth is the more prestigious competition and a true test to see who really is the strongest man on the planet. Has the dynamism of wsm but only a heavier competition

I can't make my predictions until the groups have been announced.

I would really Love to see both Tom and Luke on the podium this year, 🌶🫶🏻

I’m glad they called up Adam Roszkowski!

So two years ago, Mitch beat Brian in the heats. Then he won the following year. Jaco beat Brian in the heats last year. Jaco to win WSM2024?

Tom vs Mitch is the battle for 1st place. Most people agree with that, I think! Luke Stoltman vs Matt Ragg for the bronze trophy might be more contraversial, but that's my hot take!

Just wondering now if Maxime was not invited or turned down his invite? His lat seems to be doing a lot better. Other than that, since Hatton declined his invite I believe this is the best possible list.

I believe Mitch Hooper is about to be 2x World’s Strongest Man! And then go on to become Strongest Man on Earth later this year! MOOOOOOSE!!!

Can’t wait for Uncle Loz and Liz’s updates like a kid in the 80s, as WSM is also pretending they’re in that decade too, as they don’t think live streaming is possible or something 😂

Any chance of a video profiling a few of the guys that were talked of as contenders for call ups to worlds but didn’t make it.. or guys that have been a round a few years, but haven’t gotten asked this year? 😁

Big Tommy for the win! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Hoping to see Luke and Trey Mitchell do well! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

I attended WSM last year, didnt pay for tickets, and it was a truly bad experience. I attended the Arnold this year, with $300 tickets, and it was an excellent experience. Myrtel Beach is a 5.5 h drive and columbus a 10 h drive. I won't attend another WSM but I'll gladly pay and drive twice as far for the Arnold.

Awesome line up for WSM!...Cant wait to see the results and the show later down the road!

It'll be interesting to see all these new guys and what they can do. I think 1. Hooper 2. T. Stoltman 3. Singleton 4. Ragg 5. L. Stoltman That's as far as I'm guessing 😂

With osg always being in USA so alot of athlete's not having the money to go over there to compete should they rely so much on osg as qualifier for wsm especially with giants live having so many athlete's compete at their events having already qualified? I'm not saying giants live shouldn't have who they have compete either btw

Now we all know the competitors, how should the groups line up? 😳

These latest add ons due to all the injuries is really unfair to the fill ins since they aren’t prepared enough. WSM isn’t gonna be a great show this year. 1st Mitch, 2nd Tom, and third is up for grabs between Trey, Evan, Luke possible, or one of the new faces like Nana.
