That's a great lineup of competitors AND events! It will be exciting to see if someone breaks the deadlift record for that load of cash.

Would be fun to see Hafthor win the Arnold, and then walk over and take this as well. : )

Can Hafthor Bjornsson Win the 2019 Arnold Classic AND World's Strongest Man?

Yes, and he probably will.

I was gunning for Mateusz, but he was very unlucky on events, and you could see how mad he was for not doing at all his best. Must have held the stone to high, and did not breath right, as no way his strength went that fast, as I think he could have carried it several yards further than the other, but he just went so fast, like he was going to pass out. And on the log, I think he should have waited another 10 seconds and he would have had the third up and won.
