    This placing is underrated, Thor literally transformed his body from WSM to a lean fighting machine to box Eddie, then suffered an injury, and in the past 8 months transformed his body back to WSM level. This is absolutely insane to witness, and I can only look forward to what's instored from The Mountain!

      Matt Rhodes call it, last event, though exciting was not thought through for atlehes to score points. Last trial by stone you would get points on picking the stone and then picking on finishing the lift, also you could jump a stone.

    It would've been 2nd place if it wasn't for the 2 pressing events in a row. I think once you get closer to your prime you'll be battling it out with Mitch Hooper for 1st place, and also set some juicy new deadlift world records! 🔥

      ​@@BuffPomsky I was happy he skipped his 3rd deadlift instead of going for breaking his elephant bar record. I was worried it could be a repeat of his over eager bench press weight jump and we would see him get another unnecessary injury.

    The RPE7 1000+ pound raw deadlift was unreal. The frame was great, you did better than anytime before. The dinnies went great. The axle wasn't bad. There is nothing to be angry about, sure it's not the place you wanted to be but going back with this kind of performance and (looks like) injury free is a huge win. The strongman is the most competetive it has ever been.
    Looking forward to see 500kg raw deadlift (sure it's doable!) and you apperance at Shaw Classic, I see no reason to not make it happen!

    I can only imagine trying that stone press after a pec tear. That would be so tough.
    It was awesome getting to watch you live for the first time though! Congratulations on your comeback!

    Well done on the come back Thor. The deadlift in particular was astonishing - listening to Loz and Liz today, Loz said he'd never seen a 1000lb pull look so light. Best of luck in all your upcoming comps, but don't forget that we're all eagerly awaiting the 505kg pull. It doesn't look like it's far off at all! 😁

    it was a pleasure seeing your return. Can't wait to see you break the world deadlift record at the shaw classic 🔥
