It came down to the final event - the power stairs - and it matched up Hugo Girard and Dominic Filiou.

At this point, Girard lead Filiou by one-half point, so this was it . . . Girard reportedly gave it everything he had in the last two events, but he could not complete the power stairs . . . Filiou did, and that gave him the title and the World's Strongest Man invitation.

Here are the final places and points for the top four:

1. Dominic Filiou 78.5 points
2. Jessen Paulin 78
3. Hugo Girard 77
4. Louis-Philippe Jean 71.5
