Clash of the Titans

i've got every intention to catch the movie soon as it hits the big screen but no, not talking about that now.

This is what i'm talking about

As with the past 4 years, i've been attending this annual event to provide some moral support to my kid brother Frank...though he prefers to be known simply as Chaar.

First event of the afternoon...what does it look like?

That's right...it's the

Next, what they call the Farmer's Walk...

...that's a 90 kg "shin-breaker" in each hand

Needless to say, these events take a little time to set up in between...

...but i'll spare you the boring stuff

After the 260kg Tyre Flip, they organizers where kind enough to let the contenders take a little breather while we spectators got more than an eye full of...

Sorry ladies, enough eye candy.

This is a new event...think it's called the Wheelbarrow. There's alledgedly 500kg of weight in those things... but who's counting anyways?

Unlike last year, Frank did not win this time. But who did?

Nope...

...it wasn't mister FancyPants. He's in 3rd place.

The anticipation was tough on everyone...

...would it be Jen #2, or Samuel #9?

That face says it all.

Here's the key to the city...

...and a nice little paper weight...

...now go hug some body...

Must feel good to let it out

But seriously folks...

Never mind that the competition seemed to be dominated by the guys in orange (SG.Titans)

What counts is this...

The title stays with ALLSTRENGTH!

Oh well...for another year anyway. :)
