MARIUSZ PUDZIANOWSKI

[@King-O-Hell]

It's hilarious, in hindsight, to hear the commentator questioning if Zydrunas Savickas will be any good at lifting overhead.

To be fair, he was pretty poor at the Viking Press in the Euros that same year. But yeah, he went on to be okay I suppose 😆

[@King-O-Hell]

@@HoistusMaximus Yeah, that's why I was saying hindsight. At the time, the questioning of his pressing ability was reasonable:)

Love seeing the heats and learning about the competitors. Thank you

[@Saskatchetooner]

I’m impressed with their tolerance of the heat and humidity. I lived in a similar climate for 10 years.🇨🇦 It’s brutal 😩

[@simenandersen3262]

That heat is not good for Svend's viking genes 😂 I think he was by far the strongest man in the World in 2001, but he only won by 2 and 3.5 points against 2nd and 3rd place. Maybe because the heat and humidity gassed him out

[@mako5996]

1:54:00 Pudzianowski, the only strongman who put up 6 stones and got only 2 counted.

[@Altern8One]

Sadly he put them in the wrong order...

[@TheVanillatech]

@@Altern8One Nah he shook the 3rd stone loose when the 4th stone banged too hard on the pillars. In all honesty, its an equipment failure, and he should have been allowed to continue. Not that in mattered with regards to qualifying. Mariusz the GOAT.

[@markovasil1608]

Love watching these classic strongman flashbacks

[@anibaldk]

Big Z was quite slim back then =D

"Will Zavickas be any good at log lifting?" Hmm...

[@cabellp]

This is so sad disturbing to watch. Johnny Perry Jr died 6 weeks after this. More have passed away since Johnny. Very Sincerely, Mrs Johnny Perry Jr

[@Grisha_Goryachev]

Very sorry for your loss. This sport along with bodybuilding has taken many lives. It is truly sad.

[@mateuszg6042]

1:32:20 I can't stop laughing. Pudz finished basically runiing no problems and casually walks away while all the other guys laying on the ground fighting with that chain XDDDDDD

[@TheKessi1000]

Nobody moved weight like Mariusz, NOBODY. The guy is without question the greatest of all time @ WSM.

[@robertdemon3550]

⁠@@TheKessi1000in 2005 all the top competitors besides Pudzianowski were competing in IFSA and Pudzianowski was the only competitor who competed the year before in WSM all the others were new to Worlds. I wonder how dominant Pudzianowski would have been if this split didn’t happen, not having to compete against Savickas and other top strong men from 2005-2008 until they returned to WSM in 2009.

[@johnnyvain544]

Always wished Karlson had won at least 2 WSM, seems like a cool dude

[@TheVanillatech]

Thor is near! ODIN IS NEAR! YEEEESSSSSSsssss! :D

[@robertborich4404]

2:42:05.....two legends in the making.

[@dennisvansant1279]

I honestly thought Pudzianowski was going to put the shield back in the slot at 150 meters. He didn't even look winded when he dropped it.

[@twright1983]

Surprising how much better girard looked in the heats than mariusz yet in the final it was the complete reverse

[@roybatty-]

Pudz's IQ was off the charts.

[@TheVanillatech]

Girard ... one of the strongest men to NEVER win a WSM title. Alongside Badenhorst and Manfred Hobel.

[@pfeffer5234]

@@TheVanillatech Girard - strongest man to never reach a podium.

[@TheVanillatech]

@@pfeffer5234 Yeah those WSM's never suited Hugos stamina, but he dominated Super Series. Also prone to injury.

[@robertdemon3550]

⁠@@TheVanillatech I would say the strongest competitors to never win Worlds were Riku Kiri and Gerrit Badenhorst.

[@GenocideLv]

Pudz - all time best debut of strongmen. Everyone was just speechless from opening event domination ( 1:31:30: )Everyone is falling and stumbling, almost dead and unable to finish, meanwhile he looked like he had done his warmup and was ready for the actual event.

[@willh1655]

He began strongman in 1999 and was in 2000 wsm final.

[@Jacksonboe21]

Alright Big Zs little getup he did on the Viking press 2:21:09 was almost the most impressive thing he did this whole contest. What an athletic specimen this man was.

[@StFidjnr]

1:01:55 this one is the most unique intro of the 30 competitors

[@thepeckhampoet1909]

They come once every 200 years, gifted by God Pudzianowski. Defying the laws of gravity and physics with sheer determination. Probably the pound for pound toughest man that ever lived. I'm not even a fan I'm just telling it like it is.

[@caspos1987]

The good old days when the BBC employed dwarves at Christmas

[@derekporter66]

i miss these days :(

[@markovasil1608]

These videos are incredible ❤️💪

[@maciejguzek3442]

I thought Johnny Perry was done with the squats after like 3 reps. He did 9. I googled him and learned that he died just a few months after this WSM Finals, at just 30 yo.

[@EVO6-]

Two guys in this died soon after, both Americans. Jesse Verunde as well. Come to think of it, so did Mike Jenkins a few years later.

[@maciejguzek3442]

@@EVO6- yes, jenkins and marunde were in really narrow strongman elite. The risk is huge. It didnt materialize in recent years, but sadly, sooner or later ,it will.

Johnny Perry unfortunately passed away later in 2002 due to heart complications as a result of steroid abuse. Always liked Pfister a lot - seemed like a great guy.
