I understand that many people who've taken a life, even justly, don't like to relish the thought.

But if that man took that thought out and savored every moment, warming his heart with the memory, I wouldn't think him strange at all.



I admire the space shuttle program so much, NASA made it seem almost routine to get a craft reliably into space and land like a plane, but no flight was ever routine. Every single one had so many factors that differentiated it from others it's nothing short of a miracle they made anything happen at all to me.

Japan's Risako Kawai won gold at the Olympics and celebrated by throwing her coach around like a rag doll. Here's a Facebook link to the video because Olympics stuff gets scrubbed from youtube pretty much immediately:

He's 400lbs, so the bench is supporting 840lbs.

how much money is there in being a strong man if you're not winning/placing? seems like all the travel/steroids/massive amounts of meat would cost a lot considering how often you probably need to work out

Yeah, the prize money for the top events is less than $75,000, but there is big money in sponsorship from supplement and equipment companies. 2016 champ Brian Shaw has six different sponsors listed on his website.

I wish I could find the story about how he saved someone who was contemplating suicide. (this is from my memory so may not be totally accurate) He was driving and saw someone standing on the wrong side of the rails on a bridge about to jump, he stopped the car and lifted them back over and told them not to do it. I'd imagine being strong-armed from death by one of the world's strongest men would make you reassess your outlook on life, hopefully for the better.

edit- it was easier to find than the last time I looked for it-

quote:

I drove over a bridge tonight and saw a woman the other side of the barriers...
Pulled over' no talking just ragged her onto the safe side of the bridge, pinned her down....
Police turned up 30 seconds later' off I went.
Sorry if I was a bit harsh but all I could think was if that was my mum, my sister, my daughter even my friend, I'd of hoped someone would have done the same!
It actually quite upset me driving home to see someone in that situation with so many people driving past just not giving a gently caress!
Just slowing down to see what's going on....
If you ever, EVER come to the point where you've just had enough' think of everyone else you effect. Iv lost some friends through suicide and even family members and the effects are life changing for so many!
Sometimes a shoulder to cry on is all that's needed...
Just talk to someone! Seek help! Your not alone iv been down that road many years ago and look at me now. It's nothing to be ashamed of.
Hope this status make a small difference to some sufferers out there because one life taken makes a huge difference to everyone else's life around you.
