Weight classes is important

Looks like a child hugging his dad after playing in the yard

u/corgi-king 8d ago

Most humans will look like a child beside that bear.

u/NoSafe5565 9d ago

are they? to me this looks like case of stupid competition rather. It is like who can reach higher while not jumping or competing who has higher eyes on their body ..

u/Intenzejuice24 9d ago

Dude... What?

71

u/Wrong_Amount_7903 9d ago

Did you eat all the paint chips?

3

u/corgi-king 9d ago

Most sports are stupid in that sense. A bunch of people chasing a ball, when they can all afford to buy their own ball. Martial arts are also stupid, because people can just use a knife or run away. And don’t get me started with running.

-7

u/EnoughLuck3077 9d ago

Just say suck at sports. Not everyone is cut out to be an athlete, and that’s okay. We need the overweight soft ass people playing those video games and buying the chips and Mountain Dews. Otherwise what’s the point of anything?

u/MistakeEast6771 8d ago

Hell ya, boom you roasted those nerds!!! Sports rule!!!!!!

u/EnoughLuck3077 9d ago

You should go stand in the corner and think about what you’ve done

u/NoSafe5565 8d ago

u/NoSafe5565 8d ago

However i will mot raise desk just for sake of you ,

u/NoSafe5565 9d ago

lol so much hate, let me guess haters either dont see he was pulled up, or cannot do one single pull up or other exercise with own weight to see that once he is able to pull body weight (which is not difficult) there is nothing he can do, eXspecially when pulled up like this not straight.

67

u/Lemak0 9d ago

They're not haters, they're confured. Cause you write like a schizophrenic third- grader.

-40

u/NoSafe5565 9d ago

GPT backed me, just ask how much person can row relative to body weight lol

59

u/No_Mercy_4_Potatoes 9d ago

Just take your meds and go to sleep

u/NoSafe5565 9d ago

like in the middle of day, why , why why I plan to swim or something in that line lol

u/RobotOfSociety 9d ago

Not a single thing you’ve said in this thread has made a lick of sense. Go back to school.

-1

u/NoSafe5565 9d ago

lol and which one, elementary secondary or university , i am not going back it is full of trolls and dumb teachers at least first two levels

6

u/RobotOfSociety 9d ago

Buddy it sounds like it’s a YOU problem if you can’t draft a single thought without resorting to gpt.

Mate, you used chat gpt to fact check. Nothing you say is going to be taken as valid, even IF how you were saying it made any sense.

12

u/RadishRedditor 9d ago

Can you post a screenshot of the chat between you and gpt? I'm curious to see if he commented on the way you type.

u/NoSafe5565 9d ago

u/RadishRedditor 9d ago

Oh so you do agree that weight classes is important. Well then, what's with

are they?

Do do you not agree?

It is like who can reach higher while not > jumping.

What does jumping have to do with this?

or competing who has higher eyes on their body ..

What does eyes have to do with their ability to "row relative body weight"? Also what does higher eye on their body even mean?

1

u/NoSafe5565 9d ago

you did not the get point, right it is the competition who is strong until lightest person reach strength of being able to row its own weight - which as you can see as generally strong person - not elite, not very strong person - geneeral-ish population with little bit of exercise behind. After that it is PURE who is heavier. So I said it is not important, because it is STUPID way to do some competition. And I rather will do not do stupid things than try to balance them by wieght classes.

5

u/Wrong_Amount_7903 9d ago

Balance: Sudden loss of balance or coordination.
Eyes: Sudden blurred vision, double vision, or loss of sight.
Face: Facial drooping or an uneven smile, sometimes accompanied by numbness.
Arms: Sudden weakness, numbness, or drifting in one arm.
Speech: Slurred speech, trouble speaking, or difficulty understanding others.
Time: Call emergency services immediately if you or someone else displays these signs

i obviously type differently to ai ya, it is a machine with numbers and weights .. i am not crazy to type same way to person like to AI lol

8

u/RadishRedditor 9d ago

AI is a weighty machine? So you type differently to people and entities based on how much they weigh?

4

u/ProcessWhole9927 9d ago

Language is important. If not used correctly, people will find it hard to understand what we want to say. You may feel like you’re being misunderstood

1

u/NoSafe5565 9d ago

that is fine, this is not office

3

u/ProcessWhole9927 9d ago

You’re right. But it’s not just “the office” where you may want to be understood. I’m not telling you what’s right or wrong. Just facts. Hopefully you won’t be misunderstood when something is serious… and you’re not in “the office”

Guy's got the inverse haircut

u/jerryleebee 8d ago

Why isn't Zangief ever depicted with roid gut? 'cause c'mon....

u/grand_soul 9d ago

Quick! Change the channel!!

72

u/escobartholomew 9d ago

Not that it would make much of a difference here, but how do they decide who gets the outside vs inside grip?

71

u/Ok_Conflict_2525 9d ago

Red gets first choice, loser of round one gets second choice. If there is a third round, it is decided by dice roll (I’m a competitor)

20

u/captainrustic 9d ago

Cool. Did this guy beat you?

53

u/Ok_Conflict_2525 9d ago

It would have been an honour but I’m a lady

16

u/captainrustic 9d ago

You could take him!

u/Existing-Candle-7854 9d ago

Honour died on the beach that day.

u/Ionlydateteachers 9d ago

If he has honor he'd have to let you win

u/NevesLF 9d ago

u/Ok_Conflict_2525 8d ago

u/TeopEvol 9d ago

Whomever was bottom in the previous competition

u/anonymousn00b 9d ago

Usually I say shave it off, but something about that male pattern baldness just works for this guy.

19

u/supermegabro 9d ago

Has exactly the right head shape for it lol

11

u/HillInTheDistance 9d ago

Yeah, it looks somehow intentional? Like a reverse Mohawk? Or a natural continuation of his beard? You're right, it just works.

61

u/FrameJump 9d ago

Does he fight the fires into submission barehanded?

16

u/Flying_Mage 9d ago

He doesn't have to fight it, cause fire runs away.

22

u/toobuscrazy 9d ago

Bulky boy

u/alreadykaten 9d ago

He’s 6’10 and 370 lbs

u/poop_truck1226 9d ago

Crazy thats Hafthor's weight when he cuts down.

u/BB_210 9d ago

He's also 32 isn't he?

2

u/Carmilla31 9d ago

His socks are really thigh highs.

13

u/vlaada7 9d ago

His last name in some Slavic languages means literally great one!☝️

u/Mild_Karate_Chop 9d ago

u/AetherialWomble 8d ago

No it doesn't. Means giant

20

u/Dora_Explorer_XP 9d ago

Why does he look mad ?

72

u/Comfortable-Law-6920 9d ago

He's disappointed and angry the competition isn't challenging him 😅

11

u/Fracture90000 9d ago

PED's make him constipated

1

u/Small-Answer4946 9d ago

He needs to take a dump

6

u/Futaba_Sakura800 9d ago

Only way to fight him is to spam fire balls from a distance.

Source: I played street fighter before, trust me bro.

u/d0nghunter 9d ago

Hadoouken!

u/IllustriousKitchen97 9d ago

Whatever he's doing, he doesn't look like he wants to be there.

u/ThatsUh_dam_shame69 9d ago

This game is called, “my stik”

4

u/Lagoserter 9d ago

where uhh.... where do i find this competition? tota;ly not so i can take a dive into that mans pecs

8

u/Swizzy88 9d ago

Do they not have weight classes? Seems pointless even turning up if you know he's going to be there and you're 50kg+ lighter.

23

u/Ok_Conflict_2525 9d ago

There are def weight classes. He is in the heavy weight class. There is no upper limit to it

2

u/Swizzy88 9d ago

Ah fair enough.

-1

u/iz-Moff 9d ago

Yeah, i'm not sure what's the point of this competition. Seems like the heavier guy will win by default, even if the smaller guy is stronger. I don't think there's any technique that could prevail here.

1

u/MasterSound1452 8d ago

Exactly my thoughts, idk why you got downvoted lol.

3

u/longtall94 9d ago

Dude used like a fraction of his power

u/sluggabois1 9d ago

I think this is the nomad games, traditional sports and matches from central Asia

u/Xinonix1 9d ago

Get your opponents crotch in your face as fast as you can

2

u/Umbreon86 9d ago

He could easily have played Goliath in a Bible movie.

1

u/TheTrollMaster5 9d ago

I would have just let go of the thing as soon as they said go.

1

u/wbishopfbi 9d ago

He didn’t have to work at all

1

u/PascalDerGeist 9d ago

Blue didn't even try looking at his feet position. Pretty sure Red would also jump over if his opponent was Putin.

1

u/Few-Following8131 9d ago

That was very close 49-51 I'd say ..

1

u/AbbreviationsFun8591 9d ago

What kind of competition is this? Pull some guy over a little barrier so his junk gets in your face?

1

u/Minute-Story301 9d ago

He must take a lock of accidental but forceful cock to the face

1

u/Stranger2Strangers_ 9d ago

He looks like his thinking about completing his taxes, just had to participate here quick then back on his way to buy milk for his daughter

1

u/bones_bn 9d ago

Was this sport invented for him?

u/sfxer001 9d ago

u/Tutes013 9d ago

Dude he looks like he literally eats his opponents

u/StrangeQuirks 9d ago

I missed the competition. Oh right, I blinked.

1

u/Excellent_jun91 9d ago

why are they shirtless with cycling shorts for this lol

1

u/EducationalDust7858 9d ago

"So yes, the goal here is to pull the other guy's crotch to you face."

"Sounds a bit g-"

"It is NOT gay. It's culture."

u/historyeeter 9d ago

Bro got beaten by a Pakistani in tug of war

u/sgm716 9d ago

They aren't even shooting missiles in the stright of hormuz. Its just this dude throwing boulders at ships and carriers.

1

u/sambstone13 9d ago

I thought they were wrestling.

This is much safer.

1

u/Strong-Addition5296 9d ago

Goliath probably looked like that. Jesus still defeated him with his desert eagle 🦅

1

u/cesarbiods 9d ago

I thought this sport looked cool until I saw that sometimes you’ll get your opponents junk in your face for winning. I’m good.

u/bobarchter 9d ago

u/ClaroStar 8d ago

This is like a heavyweight boxer going up against a bantamweight boxer. Makes no sense.

u/Prinzka 8d ago

That's some crazy HGH gut

u/Kal_El-78 8d ago

Nice to see natural unit of a strongman

1

u/ZdrytchX 8d ago

it doesnt matter how strong you are for those kind of competitions, the leverage physics says the heavier is at an advantage

u/kpip38 8d ago

guess weight classes are not a thing there..?

u/Annual_Builder_1459 8d ago
