Mikeneto said:Never understand the thinking with strongman presenters wanting to interview 5 secs after they've competed...Ed was rambling incoherently after 500kg with blood down his face...Benni just blanked after he did 460kg. Why not wait until they've settled down and then do an interview...

You don't see a marathon runner cross the line and get a microphone shoved in their face, they continue to show the rest of the race....In strongmen they could continue with the rest of the comp and allow athletes to do the lifts fully warmed up.

I like Colin Bryce but he is a bit of a cheese-ball.


Strongman is still a sport run by a mix of lovely amateurs, and money grubbing douchebaggery merchants.

Mikeneto said:Pritchett said at the deadlift champs he felt really good after lifting 465kg...But after Ed lifted 500kg Colin Bryce ignored the other strongmen...Put a victory parade on and he had to wait 40+ mins before he could lift again...Which meant his hamstring went cold and he tore it.

Looks to be fully healed now, so will hopefully see what he is capable of at the deadlift champs this year.


I attended this event and I do not recall it being as long as 40 mins. 25 mins max IMO

Only what he said in the interview...Are you counting the time he had to wait between his 465kg and Ed's 500kg on top of the time after.

I'm pretty sure what Pritchett says is correct to a point but you know how these things get exaggerated in a persons head. Happens to all of us when we feel we have suffered an injustice lol

Id say it was a lot longer than that between the final 465 and the 2nd 500.

On the practical side do you think Jerry having to wait 25 mins to pull is reasonable?
