WSM 1992 - Thor's Hammer (Part 5/7)

The World Strongest Man competition 1992 in Iceland. It was a great battle and probably the tightest competition for the World Strongest Man. Magnús Ver Magnússon won in 1991 and was the favourite in his homeland. Jón Páll Sigmarsson is an expert for the television this year, but he died in January 1993.

Here you can see the fifth part, the Thor's Hammer.

About the event:
Here you can see the competitors throwing the Thor's Hammer. This event demands a tactical strong man because it's not enough to just throw the Hammer up in the air, you have to get it up and over the bar. You can see some hot springs in the area. The most famous is Geysir and also there is Strokkur.

Competitors:
Ted Van Der Parre (Netherlands), Magnús Ver Magnússon (Iceland), Jamie Reeves (Britian), Gerrit Badenhorst (South Africa), Gary Taylor (Britain), Henning Thorsen (Denmark), Gregg Ernst (Canada), Ilkka Nummisto (Finland), James Perry (USA) and Ilkka Kinnunen (Finland)

Just like to add that Ilkka Nummisto is 48 years old in this competition!
