    Ich habe mal gelesen, dass die Schotten früher von ihren Gegnern respektvoll die "Frauen der Hölle" genannt wurden. Wegen der Röcke.....und weil sie wohl äußerst hervorragende Kämpfer waren - die Gegner hatten Angst vor ihnen. 🙂👍 Sehr beeindruckend... Die Schotten können Stolz sein....😁👍

    Oh, what fun this is! Could this be an international event with competitors the world over participating? Imagine zumo guys throwing those weights around, they’d win! And then the United Kingdom, Queen Elizabeth ll, with all those subjects present, her own subjects, what honor! Great video.
