8.5 TONNE TRUCK PULL | Giants Live Strongman Open 2024

[@hannibalb8276]

I love how Mitch breaks down his winning strategy so effortlessly in the post event interview, and he's so casual about it.

[@VoidOperator]

Yeah... bring a better truck next time lol

[@gearinreview4865]

Singleton is looking bigger than I've ever seen him. The guy is an absolute monster.

[@BrandonBigB956]

He does look huge. Fell for him had to compete against the likes of Shaw and now the Moose. Had Mitch Hooper not tore his hands up so bad he likely would have taken all 6 titles he entered this year.

[@sippachu9721]

It's light because it's not competing for a big title, just a 'basic' giants live show where they don't want to kill the athletes for no reason. Also a lot of them are going to want to be ready for the bigger shows coming up. Just a nice entertaining Giants Live show, so stop complaining about it being too light.

[@Micheldied]

Agreed. I don't think every single contest needs to have maximal everything. I'm pretty sure they know a lot of the guys are coming from SMOE.

[@pablotorres4342]

100% no need to tear down the athletes is just a regular show no need for the super heavyweights

[@vojtechkorhon4159]

I'm glad that arm over arm pulls are added to the competitions now, but I think it would be better if it was heavier and more difficult next time. Then we'd better see the actual differences in strength between all the athletes.

[@lonestar2495]

I belive it will be next year

[@AlejandroSanchez-pl6jw]

It shouldn’t. It’s not a big competition that should be heavy

[@AlejandroSanchez-pl6jw]

I don’t believe all events should be heavy. I don’t mind a GL show being a speed or lighter weight show. I do believe athletes should start picking their own maxes for axel

[@keyvankazemi9205]

Wow hooper

Always feel bad for noviokov..

[@boostedchicken001]

Not me ukraine is a pile of shit and there athletes too

[@petershortland478]

Right now I used to but more he keeps competing he going to hurt himself more he has yet to recover from a past injury at this rate he will struggle at all big comps and maybe not get through groups of WSM

[@SookarStrong]

The speed these guys move is ridiculous when you think about the level of strength and power.

[@austinreid2555]

1:55 Magnus totally screwed up on that call. That race was tight of course but that call was an eternity late.

[@McWhatevs]

The down signal from Magnus isn't the time, that's to tell the guy in the truck to hit the brakes so it doesn't keep rolling

[@bringmemyflail1321]

Moose-tache

[@AgentSmith911]

Kinda weird how the weight of the competitors is listed in metric but their height is in imperial, how does that make any sense?

[@Drivewaybuilt]

Its a UK thing I believe - they don't use lbs, it is kgs or stone but distances are still imperial - last I knew

[@gotzvonunentberlichingen1452]

Imperial does seem to be better for human heights though. An inch can be a visible height difference throughout the day, a cm on the other hand is so minuscule it’s hard to notice.

[@GregoryFlack]

Moose crushed it!

[@RDK-2292]

Rather see what the SMOE did and have a heavy weight that athletes can't finish. Then it's not a speed race but more of a strength event 💪

[@hannibalb8276]

Yeah but Mitch is going to win either way so

[@Nicknoone1936]

Way to light.

[@magnitorfasson9238]

As usual when its a moving event

[@petershortland478]

Tbf it's a tester

[@magnitorfasson9238]

@@Nicknoone1936 when they do moving events like loading race or steeple chase its always a race, the set of atlas stone up to 180 kg is always a race, the carry and drag the same, bag over bar is about not making mistakes in order to have a fast time and the same with the car yoke. They need to go heavier on all the moving events, i really like about the SMOE that not all athletes completes the event but in giants live they always finish pretty fast

[@CankleCankle]

Way to light what?

[@Klepzeiker1984]

You do it, i diot

[@ToeTheFoe]

💪🙂🎉

[@Fortress333]

Perfect event for WSM. They could even make it a bit lighter, to really make things tight... :)

[@artiegray8195]

Who did the testing for that truck, that was ridiculously easy and way too light for athletes of this caliber, maybe worse than the one at worlds strongest man a couple of years ago. you think they would’ve learned from that

[@joemama226]

It’s a minor show immediately after SMOE, they went light on purpose

[@petershortland478]

They done it to see if event worked properly and also because of athletes who SMOE they don't want to hurt athletes

[@polarbear4612]

They needed a slight incline to kill the momentum.

[@CleanfieldArvid]

Or let more air out of the tyres to increase the restiance, easier than building an incline inside a stadium ;)

[@polarbear4612]

@@CleanfieldArvid Good idea. I’ve only seen the inclines on outdoor events.

[@alexw.8999]

You guys do the worst promoting in the history of sports. The hell is wrong with you? I learn of your events hours or weeks after they wrap up. You guys have a great product and keep strongman alive but your promotion is hot drizzling garbage.

[@petershortland478]

They been promoting all through instagram and also Facebook they all on there even Big Loz KZbin channel even I been having them advertised i

[@joeoehm4341]

Gavin Bilton was severely penalised. The rope was always slack, the helper didn't keep the rope well taut. Yes for everyone else, but the helper probably didn't like Gavin?

[@AlejandroSanchez-pl6jw]

No Gavin just isn’t that good. The entire comp he been struggling
