You must include a 'should' somewhere there 😂😂,cause power usually corrupts.

Well you dont really have a choice, they know you can kill them if you are angry and violently so you become calm and collected, you allso dont really have anything to fear so its easy to be calm
Dude, I bet these big dudes’ moms are super proud. Like, they say “my son is a giant” at any opportunity given. Moms are proud like that.

@@paulwhat322
I don‘t know what you mean by „consuming that amount of calories“ did i miss a part of the video?? This is about pulling ropes right? 😅
If you mean generally: Of course they‘ll nee more calories than the average person. Muscles work all day long and have a way higher need for energy than fat, so the more muscles you have, the more you need to eat.
Bodybuilding itself isn‘t unhealthy, the use of drugs however is.
I don‘t know if they use drugs, i‘m no expert at that and honestly i don‘t care either.
They live for their sport, they love their sport, and they seemed like chill and intelligent dudes, so they’ll know what‘s best for them.
There‘s no reason not to be proud of them.
@@blacky_Ninja Yes. I agree. It's also cool how they hang out together. 4 monsters 😂
I REALLY admire these strong men! While they are MASSIVELY powerful, they also seem humble and cool!
Omar Abdul-Malik DHEd, MPAS, PA-C strongmen are all seemingly awesome people
@Richard Casterly probably has to do with the fact that nobody ever messes with them or disrespects them. Lol. Plus all the training is good for mental health as well.
@Richard Casterly lol i bet u neva watch WWE
because they don't have to prove anything, they are chill like that. inferiority complex makes people douchey.
Strongman is my favorite sport I've ever done because of how humble, kind, and supportive everyone is. Even if you're beating someone, they will cheer you on.

I really wanna see the video of Brian vs 50 kids
@I am the King of the Poo People he said he outright lost fair and square.
50 little kids just 50lbs avg weight would be 2,500 pounds and 100 feet on the ground.
If each kid could deadlift 25lbs that easily beats the WR deadlift. They won’t win in a fight but combined strength numbers usually win.
Pshhh I’m 5’4 and 435lb I could easily beat 50 lil kids with probably 1 arm

Scotmen: not a single word, try their hardest.
Strongmen: (casually) just lean, just lean
@Bilal well yeah but the other guys didnt have those either :D
@@mercetajs The scotss had better footwear. Brian Shaw described it well as not being able to dig in.
Well, with twice the weight of the other team leaning is all they had to do. As soon as the weight was more balanced, they got wrecked.
Austin Berner lol nah they literally had basketball shoes on while the other dudes consisted mostly of hiking boots and such, if the strongman had the same shoes they would have easily won
Bigg Papa so what
Rope pulling commences.
"Lean back!"
"So you'll ge' a peek up me kilt?!"
6:20 Brian smoothly gliding is the best thing ever
Xdddd
I like how the little guy is all " oh our skill and technique will win....." like he thinks they can win 4v4 lol
Mike Brown he did also mention weight and 4 of the smaller dudes are literally half the weight of the strong men
Mike Brown they are not little they just next to giants
He never said they would win 4 v 4 they beat them with only 8 so he was right.

We really need season 2 of this show

@@earms2949 that is if he makes ammends with brian and eddie
Agree'd, when they first announced it amazon had the first season for $.99 and I picked it up, totally worth it! I hope they have more seasons of this show, but I can see it being harder to film with Brian and Robert still active in Strongman while Nick and Eddie have both retired
Ok
@Bigg Papa Brian uses a mouthpiece too. Dont want to break your teeth. Eddie is a wuss though. ;)
I think after maybe an hour or so of teaching them technique, and then giving them similar shoes to the other team with better traction, Strongmen can definitely beat 7.
Even 8
@@waryemezez3369 somewhere between 8 nd 12 is their limit with proper shoed
With how strongmen are almost always competing against each other it's cool to have the opportunity to see them joining forces to see what they're capable of.
Give the strongmen proper shoes and they take on 8..
Alpha-Male Gaming yeah seriously. The strongmen were sliding around like they were on ice skates. They couldn’t use their weight against the other side. We all know they would decimate a group like that if they were prepared.
I know right Eddie had on the lebrons soldiers and they have good traction on the basketball court but terrible traction on grass and wet grass
It was basically in door basketball shoes taking on hiking shoes on grass
Give them some spikes they'll easily pull 9
I think Shaw was not 100% back then because of that leg injury. With Shaw being fit they probably would have won 4 vs 7. The last one at the rope is the most important so it pretty much lies on the legs on the last person...
Hydrated Eddie would've beaten 100 scotsmen.
Play games there’s not much in this world that could withstand a fully hydrated Eddie Hall

Nope all fake testo. It's the roids their body doesn't even produce testotrone at this point.

Go play with his pickle
@@fendertremolo9793 haha. It wasn't 'a bunch of lil kids' it was 50! That's a big difference.
When you've got muscles like that, you have pride to spare.
I dunno if it has anything to do with morality but hes a humble dude that's for sure.
I feel like you shouldn't feel shamed by getting beat by a school of children. Numbers count.
I just got into strongman a few days ago and i must say I love this. Grinning from cheek to cheek.

Legend says it takes 50 second graders to kill one Brian Shaw
Bfortay i think like 1000
@Preston Ruttan dead either way
If they all bum rushed him and could get him to bend down to 4 feet, a single high kick to the jaw can knock him out. Our skulls are the same no matter how strong you are. Neck width can stop the snap a bit but a child's leg is as strong as a man's punch. In 2nd grade, I was stomping 3 cement slabs together and breaking them.

Was surprised by Eddies understanding of the technicals that go into it. I always assumed this was just strength but it seems more like crew after watching this.
Imagine this guys join the squid game
Hahaha yeah
Maybe the majority would reconsider continuing the game....
@Clawbytes LOL, that would be fantastic
If the strongmen had boots they’d have beat the whole 8 lol
True if they had the proper shoes or heavy duty boots/ footwear they definitely would've won . But i agree .
They might have beaten 7 but 8, at which point the team outweighs the strongmen, is surely impossible especially with the experience and training advantage.
When you are overpowered by opponents you slip .. PEOPLE WITH NO IDEA .. they are still humans you fanboys . 6 vs 4 itself is great .These strongmens are actually dummies if left in an island to survive They will die in a minute or 2 .😃😃
@x XGeneric420X x Lol , 😄 but i said truth though.
x XGeneric420X x ok, boomer
With proper shoes they probably would have matched the 7 guys.
I agree, If they used technique rather than just strength they could have beat all 8.
So just cleets
@Bigg Papa So aggressive
@Bigg Papa reported for Spam lol
@@moki2093 done lmao
Pretty sure after watching this with the massive testosterone boost, the width of my shoulders, thighs, biceps and lats grew my 2 inches apiece. Not to mention an inch of girth to my third leg. Tysm Brian, Eddie, Nick and Obe!
Love this. It's not about the competition, but the friendships made! And if you would, give a smile to my Smokey, My best friend of 11 1/2 years died 15DEC2020. So it was nice to see you guys playing together.
6:16 the front 3 kid look like he wasn’t even trying
He wasn't lol

It's called only using 0.0000000000001 percent of your strength, and that 0.0000000000001 helped alot.

UNBELIEVABLEY STRONG 💪 BIG MAN.
5:36 everyone picks the rope up with their hands intensively, while a guy picks it up with a foot intensively 😂
Imagine if everyone there wore cleats. I feel like they can take around 10 by then.
Dxran · nah, they would still slide like crazy. We are talking surface area. This really has little to do about strength and more to do about weight and how many feet/surface area you have. I think 7 is the max they would get to even with cleats. At 7 they can’t lean them out of position anymore with their weight so they have to lift one leg up at a time to step back. At 7 it would be too many feet against them, so everytime they went to pull they would get yanked out of position. Try doing this with even 4-5 little kids. You’d be so surprised how them all pulling affects you at the time you try to pull.
Perhaps ten no, but eight surely!
OPPONENT: WHATS YOUR SPEACIALITY?
EDDIE: I CAN DEADLIFT WITH ALL OF YOU GUYS SITTING ON THE BARBELL!!
😂😂😂😂😂
@@mcbobadilla8363 😀😀✌
I mean so can Brian Shaw.
I love the guy whose clearly from the Eastern side of the Atlantic; I'm glad they had him because he knew what he was doing.
Best show I've watched in ages
Curious to see how this would've went if everyone used the same cleats to get more traction.
KuKoKaNuKo I think at 7 no matter what they were done. Eventually it gets to the point where you can’t pull them back, it’s too many feet, so everytime you go to pull them back something pulls you out of position because it’s more feet. You also will slide simply because they have more traction, they could have the best shoes and still won’t have as much traction as 7 people. When I was a teenager with 4 buddies, we beat two 300+ pound dudes and it was because they couldn’t lean us out of position, they had to lift their feet to step back, and that’s when we could win.
The Scotts didn't have cleats either
@@smefour yes they did
@@jimjohnson6404 I think they were just wearing hiking shoes

If the strongman’s knows how to do Scotsman’s technique then I think they would’ve won
True but if the Scotmen were strong as them they would also win
tututuims ieijebdo He’s saying that the original comment defeats the purpose as well
AstonishX yT nope, that wouldn’t have made a difference. Had the strongmen worn cleats, they would’ve won. At 7 Scotsman, the strongmen didn’t have enough traction to pull
if halfthor and licis was in there i bet they could take 10peps
If Stolmen brothers were there 4 or 5 of them would be max
Yep watching 400 lbs men bully 180 lbs men at their sport that is exactly what I came for

Great video
Once we 6 big lads tried to pick on our hostelmate girls by saying 6v12 and the girls just humiliated us. It shows that 4v7 is enough even when personally each one of these meatpacks are 3 times more heavy than normal people.
Well, they are actually twice as heavy. Their total weight was 1496lbs, if you do do the math that works out at 170 kg on average for each one of them, about double what a normal man would weigh.
History channel is doing good work with this show!
Zachary Smith yhh
In the southern Indian state of Kerala, they have these events where an elephant takes on 100 men, and believe it or not, sometimes the men win
Mainly broo our technique is far better then them ❤️....
Indian/Asian elephants aren't that big or strong. A bout against an African Elephant would be more exciting.
Unnecessarily troubling docile creatures as a show of strength
I like how these guys didn't just assume that they would easily win because of their combined strength and weight. Right from the get-go, they understood that a little more went into it.
Brain was saying how his shoes weren’t dinging into the ground well that’s because he’s has Jordan’s on basketballs shoe if he had boots on like the other team he could of taken 7
Laughed really hard when the weigh ins happened wasn’t expecting that close of a weigh in
Most polite herculeans I have ever seen
they are all polite, you can look in their own videos.
If only they had watched Squid Game first, then they would've been able to handle like 4v10

I like that these strongmen are all competitors yet such good friends too.
In various examples, when one of them is set to break world record, their competitors cheer them. The game remains bigger than all of them.
Now compare that to football..
