by Randall J. Strossen, IronMind Enterprises, Inc. © 2003

Mariusz Pudzianowski, Geoff Dolan, Zydrunas Savickas, Magnus Samuelsson, Raimunds Bergmanis, Jarek Dymek, Hugo Girard, Vasyl Virastyuk, Svend Karlsen, and Jessen Paulin made it to the World's Strongest Man finals today.

Mark Philippi and Phil Pfister still had a chance to make the finals today, but things just didn't work out. "For me it was just an inconsistent effort," said Mark Philippi. "I got in a hole and never climbed out."
