I will say I'm enjoying the final much more than I thought-- I figured it'd just be a runaway for Mitch since he's been so dominant recently, but it's nice that it doesn't feel like a foregone conclusion. Competitions started to remind me of being an F1 fan in 2017 when Lewis was winning everything to the point that there didn't seem to be any point in actually watching the races.

And on the Atlas Stones Tom is the best in the world, let's be honest. So realistically, Mitch would want to go into the Atlas Stones with a lead of 2 points or more, which I think will be hard because he's 3 points behind after the first day and Tom is in really good shape.

@@jtf2danofcourse but knowing when to stop is a huge advantage though, tom is a tremendously strong man after all hes won twice and could potentially be up for a 3rd. He can do the conans well enough. But the advantage of knowing how long you need to last allows you to go all in enough just to win and conserve energy which is the biggest overall advantage. Even if he dosnt come first he can attempt 2nd or 3rd given how confident he maybe for the next events. Being able to dictate your energy level and earn point is massive.

Great Canadian representation....big ups to Hoath being a full time police officer too!!!

Thanks. Great recap.

Toms size always leaves more in the tank he’s gonna be hard to beat he just has to do his best and make no mistakes and it’s all his.

These videos are so amazing, and keeps getting better every year!🙏🏻

So excited for day 2!

Appreciate the comprehensive coverage guys, hope you get some decent sleep in before tomorrow

Great to see the top 3 being so close. Should be an exciting day 2!

If one thing concerns me about the final 3 events for Tom, it is the Conan’s Wheel. Tom needs a strong performance to maintain his lead going into the final two events. However, he does have the advantage of going last which affords him the ability to see where the other competitors finish which could provide that extra bit of motivation to go a little further opposed to not going last. I don’t know how or if Hooper’s injury will effect the deadlift for reps but I expect him and Tom to finish within one place of each other setting up a potential winner take all in the Atlas Stones.

All still up for grabs. Interesting day ahead tomorrow.

Evan is no walkover on stones. He was neck and neck with Tom at GL World Tour Finals in Glasgow 2019 until they both fumbled.

Um. Day 2 is going to be great. You two are the best. See you tomorrow.

Thanks

I remember watching the year I believe they were somewhere in Africa and they had to do a vehicle/train pull type event using a horizontal steel ladder of some sort and everyone was burning the skin off of their hands because it was so hot

That first event was perfectly done like they’ve done the Shaw theory of thirds

3 man race!

Yes, Evan 💪🏼

How about Andrade! Solid performance from some of these new bloods. Could not be happier for Tom Stoltman being out in front, but Mitch Hooper is still very dangerous and I wouldn't count out a focused Evan Singleton. I'm glad he's got his shit in order for WSM. I had Mitch winning the Yoke, so that absolutely threw a wrench in things. I'm elated that it put some daylight between Tom and Mitch. Not much mind you, but something and that makes my day. I knew this year would be the three horse race but it shaping up nicely with some solid performances. Honestly, I can't wait to watch the Heats, let alone the Final. Come on Tommy! Slay Day 2! 🏆🏆🏆🥇🥇🥇🏆🏆🏆

I feel like this could be enough for Tom. Mitch has to pull back at least 5 points in the next two events.

Come on big Tommy boi 💪

My predictions on paper were definitely wrong. Still the same top 3, but not quite how I thought.

👍

Every year tom improves on something they we fans consider a slight weakness for him.... at one point it was his deadlift, then shoulder pressing, mental fortitude on holding events... now hes going to prove conans is a great event for him... this year hes been training on an actual conans wheel plus he will be going last .... i see him top 2 Deadlift will have a flex in bar... will suit tom ..he will match hooper or just be 2nd to him.. if tom is tided or just 1 point behind hooper going into stones then hes 3 times wsm

No one who split jerks is worthy of the title of World's Strongest Man. I hope Tom (or anyone else for that matter) wins

3 points isn't that big a gap. Big Z used to make up more points in the Big Z vs. Shaw days. I don't know why people think the comp is over. Do I think Tom is a favorite, yes? But he was a favorite coming in. 3 points can turn anytime. Also, everyone is overlooking Evan - and I think he can surprise people with the events today.

It's not surprising that Evan won if you've ever met him in person! I am six two and a half and half large hands. He should not be called the t-rex! He has the hands of a sasquatch!

The only one who can beat tom is Tom. He is dialed in and killing it.

Go take a nap!!!!

Tom is in great postion he's a lock for the atlas stones just has to keep it close with Mitch in the other event and he will win

I don't think it's possible for mitch to win at this point. He basically needs to gain 5 points on Tom. If he doesn't go into the stones with at least 2 points ahead then he is going to lose. The only way that will happen is if Tom messes up on the Conans wheel and some people get in between them on the deadlift

Tom came last on the conan's wheel in his group last year and Hooper, Ragg, Kordiyaka and Singleton all did further distances in their respective groups. Tom also dropped 5 points in the deadlift for reps while Hooper took max points, so this is probably going to be closer than people realise.

Amazing start for Tom. But the Conans wheel will be the decider. Based on past results, Hooper could gain 3 or 4 points potentially. Or Tom continues to impress and improve, limit the damage/over achieve and clinch his 3rd WSM

tom has a habit of honing in on his weaknesses, deadlift used to be one of his weakest aswell as pressing but hes turned them into advantages. Given the gap he has over Hooper he can afford to loose a few point in a few of the events, becuase unless Hooper became godlier at stones over the last year stones is going to be toms event, given its the last event usually most atheletes struggle becuase of fatigue meanwhile tom has stones down to a literal T.
