These comps were so professionally produced back then

[@jasveenpal]

Thank you for this. Gerlof Holkema. Appreciate it

[@user-hr6gf4gn4e]

The shows are boring nowadays. The competition is better though. They rely on the mic too much to keep people entertained

[@keganramsey4843]

Sucks that Svend Karlsen got injured he had a damn good shot at winning it this year to

[@filipgrasberg9333]

Flemming was like Samuelsson on Diesel fuel.

[@johnnyvain544]

Ahola is a g’damn BOSS.

[@thegoons3415]

the intros in the old worlds strongest man are always cool

[@darylkanofski9327]

Flemming being done in on the log lift and his mistake on the car flip cost him valuable points

[@pelimies1818]

These competitions were great fun to watch.

[@rotortilttt]

105kg log and 1 minute :/ I remember big Z did 160kg for 10 reps at wsm 2011 and he still had more in the tank, says a lot of how far the sport has come :)

[@jaket2274]

Wow, didn’t know the Space Cowboy actually competed in a WSM ever

[@annematthews1837]

Theres something about Phillipa .... there are many more pretty women on TV every day but Phillipa has some kind of sparkle just makes her so more attractive.

[@brucebanner9911]

Doug edmunds, had a personal issue with Flemming.

[@Klinkerklunk]

Who knows if Fleming was awarded the 13th log press and won the event alone if that would have changed the outcome.

[@joeschmoe3665]

Jouko Ahola is a goddamn finnish packet of meat come to life!!

[@hugotopping]

Why didn’t Magnus or the other 3 make it to the finals???

[@daig1984]

Doggie Edmund’s the worst judge I’ve ever seen!!! Iron bear Colin’s didn’t lock out on the log lift at least 3 times but was given all of them. Fleming was robbed

[@Muniswaran4549]
