the Mountain lifts and carries a 1433 pound log

submitted by lv_hunter

9 years 9 months 3 weeks ago

The record is based on the 1000-year-old legend of Orm Storulfsson, an Icelander that carried a 1433 pounds and 33 feet (10 meters) long Monster Wooden Log. It took 50 men to place it on his back. Right after he took the third step his back couldn't hold the weight and broke. The legend says Orm Storulfsson wasn't the same after that.

Adding video to channels (Ftw) - requested by Zawash.

Not to be a dick, but the amount of separation between the log and the safety frame was sketchy at times. The frame kept him from overbalancing at least twice; which would seem to me to be the hardest part of this challenge, as you take each step trying to not only lift this incredible weight, but to prevent the unwieldy length from shifting said weight to the point of no control.

Yo, did you see what this guy did to that guy on TV? Shhhhhhhhhh
