9x WSM finalist! Member 662, 3372 posts | I honestly can't believe the front of some people! Our titles are already seriously watered down by the amount of national champs etc without people claiming to have titles they don't. Anything for a tiny slice of fame for some people! | ||

9x WSM finalist! Member 662, 3372 posts | Thing said: is that not a kind of side note terry as the guys has had his Kit Stolen. As terrible as it is I think the whole fact he is making such claims is very disrespectful to the probably 30-50 guys that are ahead of him in this country I know the article is about his kit being stolen but I feel less sympathetic when someone bulls**ts so much | ||

the UK's leading expert in bio mechanics Member 1973, 7379 posts | I would imagine the headline 'Half decent open level strongman has kit nicked' might not make the national press... Or 'mediocre open level strongman has one farmers walk handle nicked' in my case Whether it is him or the journalists that have embellished a little is anyones guess... | ||

Chris 'The Magician' Melling Member 1443, 978 posts SQ 270, BP 180, DL 320770.0 kgs @ 135kgs UnEq | I do wonder how much of this article has actually come from the guy in question mind? Hes only quoted as saying a couple of things and we all know what the press is like in this country for building a non story , could well be a local reporter trying to make a name for himself and "guiding" this guy with questions that can be interpreted as the reporter likes | ||

403 forbidden message Member 160, 5121 posts SQ 190, BP 137.5, DL 225552.5 kgs @ 86kgs UnEq | Surely the daily mail should use a quotation mark instead of an apostrophe, as well as close quotes they've opened? It's probably used by people into strongman as selling custom, one of equipment would stick out like a sore thumb. | ||

Member 1966, 348 posts SQ 160, BP 70, DL 200430.0 kgs @ 83kgs UnEq | If you actually read the article it does say he was a one tine holder of Englands strongest man, and he is in training for the upcoming worlds strongestman challenge in september.. Somebodys telling porkies as unless the reporter is into the strongman scene I cant see where else he would have got his story from.. Bad s**t that he got kit nicked... | ||

Most arrogant and rude man ive met in my life I have, he rang up the gym that was holding a comp we were both competing in to make a big thing of how he will beat me, 4 events in I had won every event and he was a way back then tore his bicep, this was in 2007 when he apparently won esm. Deluded is an understatement! | ||
