It's crazy how different Tom has changed in the face throughout the years

[@NSD-fp9qj]

GH face is crazy

[@gurjot1729]

the stones were not fair that year in heats

[@gotzvonunentberlichingen1452]

It’s a lot better than the stupid stone-off where only 2nd 3rd face each other. Shiv and Novikov had massive leads over third place but lost because of the stone-off. At least this way, the more consistently amazing competitor gets an advantage and not the best stone lifter.

[@PieProductionsOfficial]

This group is so loaded

[@guanjun1178]

Back when Brian still had an amazing deadlift. Also forgot how huge he was back then.

[@NSD-fp9qj]

210kg 😳

[@NSD-fp9qj]

Also should have been 2nd, thor should have been disallowed 3 more reps but Magnus felt intimidated by thors presence so he gave him “ThE bEnEfIt Of ThE dOuBt” and only disallowed 1, documented fact..

[@ericstafford105]

This is awesome but I wish we had ALL the WSM heats and finals on here.

[@ornei2615]

I bet they'll be posting the rest in the next week or so, like the did with WSM 2020 recently.

Jeez 19 lifts on the stones should have given Belsak a honor in the finals

[@dylanjones4621]

Can we all take a moment to realise how far Tom Stoltmen has come on 💪

[@NolanFriedline]

I can't believe they made Belsak go against JF after he beat Woulfe.

[@OzzieAznRefugeez]

Brian Shaw with the Veteran move to just tie up the top rep to conserve energy... Whatta Beast 💪

[@captainobscurity491]

Damn Tom really went from rookie to champ in 4 years.

[@lewis9454]

Same as Brian, took second one year and first the next year now if he tears his bicep next year he really is the next Brian

And the guy next to you, while competing, calls you on it....

[@MsStevo2000]

I just watched Kyriakos Grizzly pull a 700kg sled. the first event with the cart pull is one of the closest strongman events I could find to it. sure there are a few differences in the implement and surface but if he had competed in this I think he could have done very well.

[@kristerwikman3433]

the guys behind the fingal ' s fingers should have hard hats

[@dalewilson9602]

Tom stoltman looked super young here

[@elliottengstrand5988]

Tom listed as 22yo 6'6" I wonder if they had him measured wrong or if he actually grew another 2"

[@melancholy348]

Edited events with commentary instead of showing the performances. Show, don't tell.

[@coloradomountainman8659]

Good video except for the screeching woman introducing the athletes.

[@belasstrongestwarrior]

The world would truly end if Eddie Hall ever locked out a Deadlift. Scary

[@refugio1593]

In my opinion this was the toughest line up in strongman history.

[@gotzvonunentberlichingen1452]

It’s only getting harder. Currently there is no Hafthor, Zydrunas, Brian, Bill, Magnus, Jon Pall or Mariusz that is heads and shoulders above all others. You have a bunch of guys that are awfully close. Novikov, Singleton, the Stoltmans, Shaw, Mitchel, Caron, Janashia , Boudreaux,… Perhaps the return of Kieliszkowski will stir things around.

[@rubenrabacal269]

There is no Brian, but there is Shaw 🤔

[@Blk9698]

Ah yes. The year prime Thor lost to prime eddie
