The Giant Lift

Swedish strongmen battled it out in the traditional Giant Lift in Gamleby, Sweden over the weekend.

Although everyone likes to be the best, it is also great to share the glory and this year's competition ended with a three-way tie for first place: Hakan Petschler, Ulf Gunarsson and Benny Wenberg all succeeded in loading the 400-pound stone (1.2 meter height).

Benny cracked the 420-pound stone off the ground, Ulf got it in his lap, and Hakan touched the edge of the loading platform, but then dropped the stone.
