Scottish Highland Games Heavy events, including hammer throw, shot put, weight over the bar, tug o' war and Caber Toss.

The caber toss is a traditional Scottish athletic event in which competitors toss a large tapered wooden pole called a "caber". The caber is usually made from a Larch tree and is typically 19 feet 6 inches tall and weighs 12.5 stone, but there are bigger and longer versions at some games, including at Aboyne and the Braemar Gathering.
