Default World strongest man.

I was watching it on Virgin the other day and it said they are doing a few events in London on 28 - 30th May 2010.

Does anyone know were its at?

I would like to go to this but cant find any info on it, the WSM Website is no help either.

I reckon you'd do great in the car pushing event mate.

As a matter of fact I might apply myself.

What channel was that? must have been a repeat because theres no strongman competitions on now.

And what event is supposed to be on in london anyway? could be Britains strongest man but surely its not until the back end of the year

It was Virgin 1 on Friday last week, apparently its the London heat of WSM, Im sure the presenter said London Arena on 28th to 30th May 2010.

The WSM website says they have not released any info for the 2010 tour dates yet.

Big - Dan - Just because I work for Citroen, they are getting better honest

25 squid, not bad for a day out to see that, would love to go and see it instead of on tv, it must be even more unreal seeing how big they are in person and seeing them lift cars etc

Link to the official site:

I was thinking of going but it looks like its just a demo and not a competition.

I always watch WSM and notice that the crowds are not that big at all. What other world standard sporting events can you go to where you are guaranteed a front row view? Shame really.

Kieron - I know what you mean, the crowds always look small, these guys are still proffesional athletes and should have the same recognition as others. Cheers for the link too
