This is my favorite year for WSM. The personalities, the location, the production, and the competition are unrivaled. I'd say the golden years of WSM were 95-01.
1:18:26 I think this is still one of The Daddy's proudest achievements, despite coming last in his group. Lifting the heaviest weight of anyone in the whole competition, in the searing heat of Zambia, proving that in the purest sense of the word, he truly was the world's strongest man.

Hahah, so many insecure ass dudes shitting on Raynes; yet no one has acknowledged how impressive it is for a 5’3 man to make it to the WSM finals, and to be able to put on so much mass. As a short dude myself, he’s a damn inspiration.
Insecure? How so? Just pointing out he was cheating. He's not 5.3, he's 5.6. I'm sure everyone that commented surely know Raynes is a great Strongman considering he reached the Final.

Completely agree. I remember when they showed the marathons of these back in the day and I couldn't stop watching!

But it hurts as well. Seeing that other contestant being left alone hanging there with his hand. Lol
if Magnus did just 1 squat. He would have tied Karlsen and won based on count back.
Its was a shame Jouko Ahola didnt take part of that years competition!
And he didn't take part in 2000 competition because he did have a little movie career before becoming an brand representative for met-rx
That cheeky bastard using a ring he should have been disqualified
So cool to know Phil Pfister did go on to win in 2006 after that amazing display
Amazing
You need consistency, how Rob Dixon can win 3 events and not get to the final proves it, such a disappointment for him, great strongman for his size.💪
While Girard can get to the final without winning any.
2:31:43 It was Zijlstra who got the false start, not Samuelsson!
2:17:09 Phil Pfister Hercules Hold
I'll be WSM one day and I'll win for America. I'll keep coming back and I'll be there.
5 years later: YEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!
Great content!
Damn skating the Elfstedentocht and being this strong, what a legend. Bijzondere jongens die Friezen!
Andrew raynes looks like if jarek dymek and v lalas had a baby 😅😅😅😅😅.
3:19:14 Karlsen only had to do 1 stone in less than 23.75! 7th place would have been enough to win.
Crazy that deadlift is a warmup now a days.
We had no warm up area, pulling in the sun at 35⁰C..we all were about 20/30kg below our pb's
But yes, its rediculous were the guys are now!
@@brucebanner9911 Are you one of the contestants?
He’s the alter ego of the Incredible Hulk. He should know!
@@brucebanner9911 I had no clue they didn't warm up. That's sketchy AF
1:40:00 Andrew Raynes controversy.

Impressive hercules hold by van heerden
2:20:36 legendary scene
Lmao, thanks for that timestamp

Was never a karlsen fan. Wanted Magnus to win
Travis Lyndon was insufferable lol
58:31 the UNofficial sequel to the dirty dozen
Holy cow Raynes is legit short even for a normal person how tf the dude make the final (i mean except the cheating)
If he was cheating, he wouldn’t have gone through or would have been disqualified. Calm your tits mate.

Not cheating if it's an even field. They all on some stuff. So really, who cares.
Was Rayne's rubber band trick in the Africa Stone event not illegal?
It has always been considered very controversial, not sure exactly what the rules were but it seemed suspicious to me
@@strongmanclassics I noticed after the event Rayne's tucked it away very quickly, lol.
@@speedy692 yep! Very naughty boy!!
Was wondering that also!

and to be able to put on so much mass....--- thats the least impressive thing you couldve said
these heats are so imbalanced.
That Andrew Raines really sucks
