That has physically hurt me Pagan.
I wouldn't be against a bench event.
Its not something I train but would for a comp.
Have benched 175 and tbh would like to nail a 400 lb'er. A comp with it it would be a good motivation to hit that target.

There's nothing more natural in fairness.

Ooh great, we're doing spelling mistakes now. Expect lots more input from me...
Just needed someone to egg me on, I guess. Can we do punctuation too, please? 
I'm thinking it was 1997 superseries?

Maybe 2007, Poundcake was only about 15 in 1997
IMO keep deadlifting in but in the fassion of deadlifting on a frame using a car or a cage, but as for squats IMO nots as imperssive in Strongman events that a deadlift type event.
in the shetland comp next year we're thinking of having some old school and new events. like the arm over arm with bales of sheeps wool on a hoist, fingals fingers, atlas stones, fleid stone press medley, bar bending might be there, farmers yoke and chain drag medley, deadlift for max on a frame with a car and pins of loading plates.
car roll, tire carry(like frame carry except with a tyre with handles)
kind of want to use things that the spectators can relate to rather than doing a bench, or squat or deadlift as unless you are training or have a little interest most of the spectators we get dont really know much about the weight training world.
if anyone else has any strnge ideas for event please give me a shout the more ideas we have the more interesting we and the guys up here can make the comp.
LEAVE Bench out of Strongman
