en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Húsafell_Stone

>The Húsafell Stone is a legendary lifting stone located in Húsafell, Iceland.[1] The stone weighs 186 kg (409 lbs)[2] and is kept near a goat pen built by pastor Snorri Björnsson over two hundred years ago.[1][unreliable source?]

The stone has been used as a test of strength by either simply lifting the stone, or by lifting and carrying the stone around the goat pen where it is located. The Húsafell Stone is also named Kviahellan ("pen slab") by pastor Snorri, who used the stone as a door to his sheep pen. The test to achieve fullsterkur ("full-strong") status is to lift the stone up and carry it the 50 metres around the perimeter of the goat pen.[3] Successfully walking the full distance around the pen is considered a widely recognized feat of strength in the field of stone carrying, and is referred to as achieving fullsterkur status.[1]

Fullsterkur status refers to the weight of the actual stone; for this status the stone must weigh a minimum of 155 kg (341 lbs). Hálfsterkur ("half strength") stones weigh up to 104 kg (228.8 lbs), hálfdrættingur ("weakling") stone up to 49 kg (107.8 lbs), and amlóði ("useless") stone up to 23 kg (50.6 lbs).

Men have lifted the Húsafell Stone to different heights and attempted to carry the stone as a test of strength for hundreds of years.[4] When the event was featured at the 1992 World's Strongest Man competition held in Iceland and using the actual Húsafell Stone, it proved to be a very popular and influential event in the sport of strongman.[4] Canadian strongman Gregg Ernst set a world record at the 1992 WSM by carrying the Húsafell Stone 70 metres.[5] The record was broken during Icelands strongest man 2017, where the 2018 World's Strongest Man[6] Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson carried the stone for 90 metres.[7]

Mark Henry is one of the strongest men to grace the planet, he worked his ass off and made lifts similar to what guys do today with a decade of way more training knowledge available. Shut your mouth and know your place.

The elephant bar already claimed 2 victims

why what happened, hes doing so poorly
i just tuned in too

Rip audio

He couldnt beat thors ele bar deadlift which is reasonable, and he failed the stone walk which is understandable as its an odd event.

poor shaw :(

is his record "protected" in some way? or is there just not much interest in raw lifting? i'm certain pritchett and shaw could beat his 903 from way back in 1995
