and only 22 years old is that correct yes correct where'd you get, where'd you get this power from,
from the Gym
¿from where? the Gym ¡Oh! from the gym, ¡Yeah! of course!
I though being called Thor maybe it came from the gods and also, sorry, of course!
when a little town Suja in Poland for the 3rd Giants live of the season and what a way to get underway
this massive truck weighs seven tons, now if you think they're gonna pull it with their
backs and legs, well they are in a way but they have to do it from behind this board
and they have to do it with their arms, it's like the hardest rowing machine in the world
well our referee will get us underway and we have Thor Bjornsson to come
six foot ten and a half, two meters five, he should in theory eat this event up
this should be a great event for him, but this being a lighter truck it just might not
work to his favor, you need the fast arms you can see he's tried that of fluffs it
up there at the end and that cost one tiny mistake he loses a second and a half 1691
but here's the results it's the local boy Kowal who wins 10 points Krzysztof Radzikowski in
second Akos Nagy in third, well it's a little forced break for the obvious before the next event,
singing in the rain might be fun but I tell you I doing Super Yolk and I medley sure
isn't the athletes now have to pick this 380 kilo Super Yolk up and run it 20 meters down
the course, 20 meters that is very difficult if it wasn't like this and they're certainly not
gonna be running what they were gonna be doing afterwards was doing six flips of this tire but
look at this now it would just be dangerous
so it just comes down to a Super Yolk in the end
no tire flip far too dangerous for that Martin Forsmark one of Sweden's top strength athletes
and Hafthor Bjornsson both might have to pick those yolks up an awful long way they're giants
but the Giant Steps might just help - ¡Oh! a little wobble from Bjornsson but it's a good
time he's outside Baron 11 seconds Forsmark thirteen point seven two gets in front of Kowal
Bjornsson just over 11 seconds, I think we have a new star in Strongman Mike Jenkins dominated
that just over nine seconds, Rats get second and Terry Holland's third overall then Radzikowski
key leads by four points ahead of Kowal and Hollands equals second Jenkins down in fifth
Martin Forsmark of Sweden then up against Hafthor Bjornsson of
Iceland, Bjornsson just 21, cannot get my head around how big this guy is for 21
laughs it overhead as well as great static strength for a 6 foot 10 man
two years ago he was playing in the Icelandic basketball team but then hurt his knee believer
not he only weighed 110 kilos then, up goes that no the third was not given to Bjornsson he staggered
forward then did not hold it properly and I'm afraid old Martin Forsmark on the left is out
fully, he's given up Bjornsson`s third chasing that mark of seven by Kowal and I think he's
gonna get anywhere near that, number four good effort, now he's a little bit angry, I guess he's
upset he lost that rep but you can't really blame the tire up those number five
gets it just in time Mark Forsmark zero Bjornsson five all right let's have a look at that one
he just missed again the referee took it away from him that he didn't quite hold his feet at
all, he was moving forward and indeed drops it before he actually managed to hold it, good call
well it's Beauty and the Beast here in Poland so Mike Jenkins and Krzysztof RAdzikowski both
guys 9 reps come all down in 3rd Hollands Baron and Bjornsson equal 4th overall then
leading this contest at the moment it is Krzysztof Radzikowski, Kowal 2nd Jenkins in
third, our next event you have to lift these enormous blocks of iron up weighing 190 kilos
and then carried up and down the course 25 meters there, 25 back, but you just keep going there is no time limit it's to the death
while Terry Hollands came out and did fifty
eight point nine five meters, Hafthor Bjornsson fifty eight fifty
victory then for the USA, sixty four point four five meters that gives Jenkins the maximum 10 points
Radzikowski second, Hollands in third so Rats in the lead by five points Jenkins in second
Kowal and Holland's equal third,
Thor Bjørnsson now
a big fighting ¡oh! well that first platform
is about six foot too high and his sister you've really is head and shoulders above it
number four with ease, I think it could be under 30 seconds here if he keeps this
rhythm up, no mistakes on the sick, that is a comfortable lead
well twenty eight point eight four, we're here the Viking roar now with his confirmation Radszikowski wins
2672 Bjornsson in second on twenty eight Jenkins indeed just gets in ahead of Gardner
31 to 35 seconds Radszikowski leaves then ahead of Mike Jenkins, Hollands in
third but it's tight third fourth and fifth the last event will be crucial
Bjornsson still in the mix as well if he pulls out a massive number here a
huge total of reps, you never know he could get leap up into third place,
Radszikowski looks good for the win this really is about just finishing off and star for
the fans Krszyztof Radszikowski on the left-hand side of picture
Bjornsson that's six foot ten it's an awful long way to go up with a deadlift of anything Radszikowski
five reps Bjornsson three now for, ¡wow! 15 reps is what we're chasing by Mateos Baron I doubt anyone
will get close to that I don't think Radszikowski will really have the heart to chase it
he's already won the contest now he needs to do no more Bjornsson still chasing a possible third
that's six reps, but time is up and ¡wow! where do the cards lie that's the question as Baron snuck
in at the last, so I said the deadlifts over and the Giants are still alive, Terry are you still in
third then what's happening here I'm not really so sure we've just been trying to work it out I
think well but unlike maybe third fourth fifth it could be any of those free positions I think,
I'll have to go to the statisticians but you know I'm amazed somebody of your height can do so many
deadlifts now that was for naught and only 22 years old ¿Is that correct?, yes, correct, where'd
you get ¿where'd you get this power from? from the Gym, from where? Gym, from the gym, yes off course, I thought
being cold Thor me that maybe it came from the gods and also sorry, of course hey well done that's
a great job and we'll find out now, who's, who's in third you were Terry, I don't know, well it's
Mateus Baron who definitely wins with 15 reps in the deadlift Radzikowski in second look
at Holland's all the way down in 8th position overall and Rats winds Mike Jenkins second and
Mateus Baron by a point ahead of Bjornsson third with Kowal and Holland's fifth equal so
Krzysztoff it's been a great day ¡huh! congratulations you're the winner, yes I'm very happy to be, I mean
in front of your home crowd ¿Did you expect to win? I don't know because everything Strong man, he's
very, very, very strong I compete from Mike first time, he's second from Arnold I don't know what
you do it, so first time a World Strongest Man a lot of people say you like the new marriage
Pudzianowski can you win well Strongest man I do it everything for a winner, good luck all right
I'll see you in South Carolina, well done, okay, thank you very much,
well Krysztoff Radzikowsky has been outstanding from the very first event through till the end he didn't have a weakness today
we all have heard about how great his shoulder power is but we got a taste of his his Atlas stones his
deadlift and steed his running ability with the Super Yoke tremendous stuff Mike Jenkins two, what
a find he is for the sport of Strongman and indeed Mateus Baron down in third, two new
guys to the world Strongest Man, two guys that could really do some damage, I think the party
will continue into the night here in Poland well that's it for me Colin Bryce I hope you've
enjoyed this round 3 of the World's Strongest Man qualifying tour till next time in Finland goodbye
