Pound for pound Magnus was a beast
Many of the events of these older wsms seemed to be very exhausting... They had to run, drag heavy stuff and carry several objects long distances... Nowadays this sport is very dramatic and the loads to move are colossal. At the turn of the Millennium we were somewhere in the middle... It has been very fascinating to see how this sport evolves 🇫🇮💜
Idk if im biased but I definitely think classic WSM is better than modern WSM as a competition. Modern competitors are stronger and can move more weight but the classic events were just more entertaining
@@PacmanLickThisGuysAs I agree. Also the competitors somehow had 'deeper personality' - especially guys like Jon Pal Sigmarsson.
O.D. Wilson, what a nice guy. He was like Shaq but with more charisma! "I don't know what them Icelanders be eating, but I want some of that!" 😆🤣
I found out he died two weeks after this contest
Great competition! Thank you very much for the upload! Cool to see Magnus on Instagram still easy benchnig 160kg in 2023 with 60 years😅
Even tho Jon Pall is my favorite strongman, its so impressive how Magnusson came in at his first event and just smoked everybody, truly a WSM successor to jon pall. Those icelandics are really something else
RIP O.D WILSON
BIG OD! 💜🇺🇸
@@vanguard4065 yes, a super Brother
The true WSM champion of 1990 due to a fixed final event
@@herrickmaster77 yehhhhhhhhh
You know how awesome Magnus Ver Magnusson must be when a massive guy like O.D. Wilson is blown away by his strength!
You will also notice in the Deadlift -- no strapping to the bar, just raw grip strength. also -- the bar was pretty standard on it's flex...not too much whip. That was close to an IPF style deadlift, just from a few inches higher off the ground.
Magnus was a BEAST. I personally think that Magnus Ver Mangusson was significantly stronger than Marius Pujanalski.
I feel so bad for manfred hobearl. He used synthol way before they realized it turns to tumors over time. There a reason you never heard of him past the late 90s. He was one of the early users when they still thought it gave strength gains.
Wasn't he in a car accident or something? I'm sure you're right about synthol though.
@@johnsterizer yeah he was in a nasty motorcycle accident I think but was still able to close a coc gripper number 3 in the mid 90s. But over time the tumors he created took their toll. But you'll notice in the events he did compete in, his arms were average at best and he mostly dominated with his legs and core strength.
This is awesome !
The good old days! But only 6000 quid for all that blood, sweat and tears? Seems almost obscene... The effort Magnus put in there to win that has to be equivalent to 25 years worth for the average government office worker!
O.D. Wilson passed away two weeks after this event
Pure gold!
OD was in alot of pain.
It is slightly weird not seeing them squat down with the stones and use their hips. Shows you how much technique has progressed (and how much more prominent stones have become as an event).
The last stone in the 1991 cometition was 140KG, in modern ( 2017 ) WSMs the stones start at 150KG and go to 210KG. They're much heavier and they also don't have to carry them as far, the technique hasn't changed much, the event has.
@@frankb5728 and one more thing that is the super sticky glue kinda thing that todays athletes use all over their palms to forearms for better grip which allowed them to lift efficiently without losing more strength throughout the lift. So anyone thinking past athletes were no good try doing the things the way as they did. Sweat on forearms in such hot condition too might be a tough challenge for them as today's athletes wraps up their hand with something first and then apply that glue for firm grip. So picking that 140kg stone in past under the given situation is still impressive to me
@@gunjanyadav5639 Tacky is what they use. It's made from Pine resin. Apples to apples I do wonder how much stronger today's lifters are. I think Loz may have a video on that but equipment accounts for a lot of improvements in strongman as well as other sports like sprinting.
van der parre is huge
Помница лет 30 назад любил смотреть эти турниры по телеканалу "Eurosport", сам тогда занимался железом. Приятно вспомнить и посмотреть старые записи.
33:05 the easiset 420kg ever lifted
Where do I get one of those Dollie’s used to carry the 900 kg?
OD Wolson as by far as static strength was superior to any contestents there but his lack of endurance with 420 pounds on that massive frame hurt him.
Sadly he died a coupke of years later at a young age during a radio interview from complete heart failure.
Wilson you mean ?
OD puling sumo and nobody whining about it? A simpler time.
How about a truck push? That could be cool to see
13:40 - 14:24 LOL damn that's rough
Worst 45 seconds of his life!
💪💪💪💪
Magnus 🐐
14:30 😍
14:29 holy attractive.
MAGNUS MER MAGNASON AKA MEGA MAN....HOW MANY MANGNUS'S DO U NEED IN ONE NAME??? HES MEGA MAN
