World's Strongest Man competitor Mark Felix jumped in with a big splash, immediately posting huge training lifts on the Rolling Thunder® and he only seems to be gaining steam: He just pulled approximately 282-1/2 pounds in his most recent workout.

O.K., so it wasn't an official contest and we don't know if the plates are certified or whether everything was weighed on an accurate scale, but there is one thing that is beyond doubt: The Rolling Thunder® has a new world-class competitor and his name is Mark Felix.

Stay tuned - we have a feeling more is on the way.
