Mitch is selling worlds better than world's is 😂

Ive never been more excited to look at a spreadsheet for two days.

Can't wait for the day shaw classic replaces WSM as the top strong man event in the world. Worlds doesn't promote, doesn't stream, and we constantly hear former athletes saying its run like crap. Pulling for mitch and glad its helping your family,but as someone else mentioned you're promoting worlds better than worlds is

Rooting for you man. Praying for no injuries

Tristain Hoath is for sure a sleeper too. I know he's capable of nearly all events and weights you listed! I assume this was recorded before him and Adam Roszkowski accepted their invites!

I will be surprised if you don't win. Go Moose!

Jaco schoonwinkle. The greatest south American

Go get em Moose! #LHBK

Super excited to watch. I went back and watched the videos from 2020-2023 and it was great to see everyone pushing themselves and each other so hard. The camaraderie is by far my favorite part.

"DO BUTT STUFF AT THE GYM"

Excited to be there in person again! Best of luck Mitch!

Good luck, Mitch. Rooting for you, Matt, Evan, Bobby, and Trey.

Wish you success brother 💪 And also wish good health to all, that nobody gets injured, and all the best.

Moose, I was at WSM last year, and will be there next week to watch you repeat...you set the standard for great human being!

Stay healthy mate! Rooting for you!!

Keep up the positive energy. Enjoy the moment. Cheers

It is going to be a battle, can’t wait to watch the spreadsheets!!

Good luck my man! Rooting for you but would love to see you and Tom battle it out on a close battle. Best thing to see, by far! Let's crush it!!

HAHAHAHAHA "I only do butt stuff at the gym" 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I think you and Tom are both legends, so would be happy to see you take out the top spots 💪💪

Good luck mitch!

I’ve been waiting for this video !!! 👏🏻👏🏻

Great hype up video. I'm predicting that like last year, you won't need to put up the last stone to win it. But you will, just because you can. Good luck!

Good luck Mitch at WSM!!

I would Pay good money to watch Live.

Let’s goooompoosooose LHBK🔥🔥🔥

Can't watch to see what we can while you're competing. Just remember to show up wanting it more than those other top guys!

Nice work.

Rooting for You as Number 1 again =) Big Respect from Sweden! 🦾

Good luck Mitch, we all know your going to dominate. Just a shame none of us will be able to watch it, gotta wait til xmas in the UK so will be relying on your daily updates

I'll see you there bro

Good luck Mitch!

Good luck brother

Imagine wanting to use the horizontal row machine and Mitch is just filming an entire KZfaq video sitting there lol 🤣

Definitely depends a lot on who gets to the final with you and Tom. Who takes points away from the two of you will be the deciding factor

I am waiting world record for Deadlift for Reps,Axle Press,Knaack Medley this 3 events from you Mitchell. You are better than all but never lost your confidence and push hard.

Top 5: 1st Mitchell Hooper 2nd Tom Stoltman 3rd Matt Ragg 4th Evan Singleton 5th Trey Mitchell (Personal guess on how everyone is looking)

Massive fan of the sport, and I can't put a finger on a favorite you and Tom are both great representatives of what the sport should be. I'm just stoked to see you and Tom get after it. Good luck!

You know the axle record is in the bag moose or youd havd said. Am not hotting them numbers good lock from the uk cant waitto see you i think youll win by 8 points or more big up from the uk🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

As a fellow Canadian, do us proud! It’s amazing seeing our country at the top of the strong man stage.

This is another win for you Moose

GOOD LUCK AT WORLD'S STRONGEST MAN! YOU GOT THIS!!!

I just hope you all have fun, go sports!

Gotta say I'm not a fan of WSM's structure. Get second in heats, and you have you tire yourself out in a stone off. Oh, then there's another stone off. And oh yeah, don't forget the Atlas stones to finish it all up. Why don't they just call it the infinity stone(s) off and be done with it.

good info

Best strongman and best content

I think it'll be very tight between you and tom. But I think you will take it 💪

Glad you have plans to go to iceland train with the mountain

I like that Mitch is a fan as much as a competitor. He gives his competition their due

all cards for moose. and maybe wake up your people with that win too

Mitch. Jaco Schoonwinkel is from South Africa bud. Not South America.

I think in most WSM you could put down viking press, its just hard to get it back going after that and looses a lot of time. But I've seen people drop it down and pick it back up for some more reps. Famously Eddie Hall vs Thor in 2017

YOU GOT THIS MOOSE!

I think it is yours this time.Realy wish we could watch it live.

Looking forward to the axle

Bilton and Heinla will be hungry for big showing at deadlift ladder too. If they make it through...both are good at stone offs

Good luck

Go Big Tom!!! 🌶🌶🌶

Best of luck Mitchell #lhbk

Good luck and have fun.

My prediction is the moose..Canada ❤

Marcus Crowder will be making the final this year. Look at OSG events and than look at heats events, he will go through.

Tom Stoltman will win his 3rd WSM 2024 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

You’re right about Andrade…group and finals if he gets there. His stone run at Shaw open last year would’ve been good for about 4th place in the final pro show…and that was a year ago.

Where can we watch worlds? Here in the UK it is on the TV but only at christmas. 6 months has passed by then

Brian's stone off last year was beyond epic

Adam Bishop is such a good strongman but nobody seems to be talking about him. Definitely someone to watch out for

Depending on how the heats line up, it’s going to be Mitch, Tom and Evan.

We are witnessing this Era's greatest rivalry between hooper & stoltman!

As a proud Scotsman I really want Tom to win but damn dude you are doing so much for this sport! Lift heavy be kind is such an amazing message! I hope the best for you at worlds! Good luck!

I really want to see Gav do well. He seemed to be knackered before even getting to the Arnolds UK.

I won't wish you luck like everyone else is because you don't need luck.. You've trained hard and your dedication will yield victory!

I think you win every event this year heats and final

Luke Stoltman, currently Europe's Strongest Man, may do very well given he seems fit, quick, and his deadlift has come up so much.

To all those who keep calling strongman fans consodering the Rogue Invitational, Arnold's, or the Shaw Classic as better shows 'childish' - maybe you can consider more facts than simply state that WSM is the oldest comp. WSM may not have to sell anything now - but if they keep going as is - they will fall behind other shows Why - here are some big reasons: The other shows (Rouge, Arnold, Shaw Classic) will attract the top athletes more - because these shows are fair to the athletes, they'll get more money, more sponsorships etc. The growing core strongman fan base wants these top athleetes to be treated well and will pay in tickets and other ways for this reason as well as for the bigger entertainment value (like any other sport). If you think this is childish thinking - you are not accounting for many variables like (1) the amount of money and effort that's going into strongman now that wasn't the case when WSM was the only 'big' show. (2) There's more interest in strongman now than ever before and most of that is being created by institutions like Rogue or athlete-influencers like Shaw, Hooper, and definitely Big Loz. (3) Many core strongman fans have for a long time thought of ASC as a better strongman comp than WSM, it's just that WSM had more viewership. While it is true that WSM has the biggest reach in general population - the strongman fan base is rapidly growing and comps like Rogue, ASC, and the Shaw Classic are catering to these actual strongman fans who are willing to pay for live stream and top fan experience - this is a big factor driving the change because at the end of the day financial objectives tops other considerations.

is the event televised or streamed anywhere?

I think it's going to come down to who gets between you and Tom on certain events

Good luck buddy!

Good luck Mitch. I think the 🫎 is gonna tear it up.

Nice bideo

Waiting for Tristan Hoath to make a splash. Late addition who's going to make some waves. I'm just glad it pulls him out of my July competition 🤣

You and tom gotta hangout a bit after the comp

Adam Bishop, deadlifts for reps

Really enjoy watching you & the way you go about your business Mitch but as a Brit my allegiance has to be with Tom & I have been a fan of his since he first came on the science. That said I wish you a great tournament.

Groups will play an important role in who makes the finals. Tom, Mitch, Trey, Evan, Matt. Will win their groups I think, 2/3 will be a battle.

I look forward to watching WSM in 2026 when the show and episodes eventually air... (This is the reality of WSM...)

Is it gonna be televised?

Markus Crawler looks like Jeff Nippard after a few bulks

Jaco schoonwinkel is Southafrica

Hey Mitch, or anyone reading this with some expertise in strength training. I noticed I can do 3 times more reps on a bar than a sandbag. If I use a sandbag to press for 5 reps instead of an equivalent weight bar for 15, what would be the benefits? Is it better for increasing strength?

Theres going to be fewer points between the top competitors on their mediocre lifts, so one bad event is going to be really hard to come back from

The top 4 guys are going to be really tight on points, I think when it comes to the Axle Press, Keg Toss, and Stones there's probably know one who's going to get inbetween Tom and Mitch. Knaack Medley however I could see Evan sneaking in there for 2nd just behind Mitch, and Conans Wheel I could see Matt Ragg winning if he's really willing to push himself but Mitch and Tom will be right behind him. Deadloft for Reps could be very interesting, after the Arnolds Im now looking at Evan Singleton to do some serious damage here, he could actually sneak ahead of Tom here, Mitch is probably the man to beat on this event and Matt Ragg could be right up there aswell. Could be a lot of tied points on this event. I think if Tom wins the Axle, the Keg Toss and Stones and keeps in 2nd for atleast 2 of the other events I think he can win overall. If he ties on points he can win based on his time on the stones. If Tom doesnt win the Axle he could be in trouble

Can’t rule out Adam Bishop. He’s been quietly grafting I’m sure

Go get 'em Mitchell .

We're guaranteed to have a new athlete on the podium this year, no matter what. I have a feeling it's Singleton's turn. Top 2 is obvious. 😁

I hate the stone off. It’s terrible. Just have the number 2 go through.

Moose is gonna win

I think all the competitors are going to get moose droppings

Why does the sign behind you read "Do butt stuff gym"?

Love to see Adam Bishop on the podium
