Giant Dumbbell for Reps (100kg with 75 Seconds) Loading Meadley (100 kg Tyre, 120kg Shield and 140kg Atlas Stone) 10 Atlas Stone from 100-225kg I have 1 Caron, 2 Novikov and 3 Luke. Successfully loading the axel could really decide it. https://i2-prod.birminghammail.co.uk/incoming/article17788722.ece/ALTERNATES/s810/0_love_island_sr6_logo_01.jpg Will there be love on the island this season | ||

Member 3757, 1746 posts SQ 202.5, BP 110, DL 255567.5 kgs @ 82kgs UnEq | Maybe Caron drops too many points on dumbbell? Tom has 2-3 good events there for sure. Heinla/Novikov? Guessing they’ll be top 4 but some of these guys I haven’t heard of and some of them are coming back from injuries. | ||

Guessing they’ll be top 4 but some of these guys I haven’t heard of and some of them are coming back from injuries. I think Caron will smash the 15" deadlift and a few might night make it through the Atlas Stones in the Middle East heat. Nivikov isn't so great on Deadlift at that height, but if its a yoke carry in the mystery event he should win that and the loading medley. I'd Tom or Luke. Maybe Tom with the long stone run with 225kg at the end. That seems grueling in the sun. Tom is looking very strong on log now, possible mystery event, but will the extra size to move hamper him in 30+ degrees: https://www.instagram.com/p/CLpnQ12AyVC/?igshid=1t1vv84s1jb9e Luke isn't as square and the events aren't super heavy so I had him with the edge. | ||

Hey mate, my name is Paul Dudley Member 632, 3628 posts SQ 200, BP 155, DL 282.5637.5 kgs @ 77kgs UnEq | 1: Tom "The Albatross" Stoltman 2: Oleksii Novikov 3: JF Caron Tom wins stones, Novikov wins DB, Tom beats Novikov at Deadlift....? It’s a tough one to call. But JF is solid all round so I think he’s definitely top 3. Would really like to see Luke S, Bish & Terry all battling for top spots too of course. | ||

An event never seen or done before to bring out the raw element of strongman, inspired by Feats of Strength Athlete Trey Mitchell who lifted and loaded 400kg for reps in our FOS Season 2. No loaders , no spotters just the athletes , some heavy weights and an axle bar . Let the DEATH lift begin!" #LoveIsland | ||

Member 3757, 1746 posts SQ 202.5, BP 110, DL 255567.5 kgs @ 82kgs UnEq | Not being funny but who the f**k is gonna load 440kg onto an axle and then lift it in any sort of reasonable time, let alone do all the other lifts first?! | ||

I assume it means ‘load’ as in, onto a small platform as opposed to actually loading the weight on the bar? | ||

woefully weak Member 4748, 1506 posts SQ 157, BP 133, DL 260550.0 kgs @ 104kgs UnEq | I think Bishop could do pretty well. Tom Novi Bish | ||

Very true. Heinla is the only one I can see completing this event. But even he will probably struggle given his finger. Can’t imagine him doing well enough on anything else to place though | ||

It will be loading plates on to the bar, that's what Mitchell did during the feats of strength series. As it's from 15" and not the floor loading the plates won't be so hard, just constantly strapping and unstrapping will take the time. | ||

Plate loading onto a bar... not a test of strength as much as a test of gym etiquette? | ||
