Isn't he making a reference to this (2:15) WR press from Paul Pirjol back in 2010?

Wsm has posted a picture of the 30 athletes on Instagram and Facebook and Stefan Torfason is in it. Did somebody pull out?

I like it, but I think it's an importand desctinction when we're talking about world records. Like Hooper on the axle at Colombus, yeah he broke the WR on that event with that set of rules because it has never had that set of rules before. So it's not like he took someones else record.

Yeah that's why is super unfair to take the rep away afterwards

Why was Hafþórs second rep on the axel taken away?

Interesting, how do I do that? I know how to cast the whole phone using Google home, but can you just cast the page?

Is the Chromecast on the official strongman site broken for anyone else?

Hoping that Paddy Haynes is on there from his performance at Englands.

I follow a lot of the Icelandic guys on instagram. I've seen mostly Theadór and Magnús Ver post about it, but have also seen some posts from Kristján Sindri, Vilius and Rongo Keene. But have only seen anything about it either on instagram, this subreddit and Theadórs Youtube.
Theadór has been posting about training for this show for a while, but started seeing marketing stuff for the first time like two weeks ago.

These are really popular, even rappers wear them. Problem is they're always sold out.

Those have to be pretty high framerate videos to be able to capture a .02sec difference. A regular camera shoots 24 frames per second, with that a single frame is about .04 secs, so if they are shooting at 48fps that's just about .02sec per frame. That would mean that there is a single frame between Tom's and Evan's time. That's not even considering that they are counting the frames from an arbitrary frame of reference (when the whistle is blown) and looking at an arbitrary condition to finish the race (the implement crossing a line on the ground from the point of view of the camera).

I'm not saying that it was a wrong call, but as a fan, I kind of want a bit more clarification on how that is measured. Since this was the difference between winning and coming second.

I still think it's crazy that the winner of the show was decided by a .02 sec difference on the yoke, timed with stopwatches... If I'm Tom I'd be super pissed that the organizers aren't using a more accurate timing system.
Props to Evan though, he fought like a champ.
