World's Strongest Man

Heat Three includes Lithuania's Zydrunas Savickas, or 'Big Z' who has graced the podium a massive ten times, with four victories to his name. Now 42 years old, he has to look after his body more than ever. But write Big Z off at your peril.

Heat Four sees Martins Licis make his 3rd appearance at the Finals. Briton Mark Felix is another perennial favourite looking for a path to the Final. Making his 13th appearance, the 52 year old plasterer from Blackburn seems to improve with age.

Heat Five is 'The Group of Death'. British hopes are on the broad shoulders of Terry Hollands. But he faces stiff competition from a field of immense athletes including Konstantine 'The Georgian Bull' Janashia, and Polish star Mateusz Kieliszkowski.

The Final features the ten most powerful men to have battled through the qualifying Heats. Tests include the 360kg Frame Carry, the 380kg Jeepney Deadlift, and a 28-ton Bus Pull. Finally, the mighty Atlas Stones will decide who is this year's champion.
