Immortality

Of a sort.
Mariusz Pudzianowski has now won World's Strongest Man 5 count them 5 times.
Unparalleled, and won't be for a goodly while - if ever.
And he did it with a damaged calf muscle.
The man's amazing.
And now he's retired. I think perhaps he could see the day he'd be beaten looming - this last one came down to the final event - the Atlas Stones

Ortmayer looks good for, say, 2010 or 2011, though.

Shame about LaurenceShahlaei but he's only 23 and has years of competition ahead of him. I rank him best of the Brits, I think.
