World's Strongest Man VS Wood Chopping Champion (Basque Country Ep 2) - Strength Unknown 

Twas fun!

IS THE NOTIFICATIONS ALLOWED FOR ANYONE ON THIS CHANNEL??? help

No thanks

Martins!!!! I just fucking found your channel! You are an inspiration!

it is clear you have never chopped wood in your life... why did you have to stop???? it was only 10 min.... bro people chop wood for days straight so they do not freeze in the winter.. you could not make 10 min....

Thank you! Make sure to tell your friends! :D

Couldn't agree more!

The Bearded Guy if memory serves me is “Hacksaw Jim Dugan” formerly of the WWF!

@@markduncan6690 Never put those two together. Now, I'll think of Hacksaw, whenever I see ML.

These people are incredible athletes. . . blows my mind... it's all the hills... gotta be the hills.

@@MartinsLicis I think so too, but it’s deeper than that. My father is from Galicia, which is on the western end of Spain. The hills, their connection to the land, but also - the Basque way is also hyper disciplined, organized and industrious as hell with an emphasis on doing things well - work hard, play hard, eat well. You apply that to sports, it’s gonna produce some ringers. 😉 They are famous for it amongst their fellow Spaniards, because in many respects they lived amongst yet apart from the rest of Spain - basically because the Basque existed in that region before the Romans who laid the foundation for what Spain became, arrived - like their own little planet nestled in the northern frontier between Spain and France. Its really cool you got to see that live. It’s a very special place. I do hope your hosts took you to see Athletic Bilbao play at San Mames. Mind blowing soccer experience. 👍

Soy fan de Atletico de Bilbao!!

@@feliciacoffey6832 Yo soy Madridista pero tengo un gran respeto por los Leones y el futbol vasco.

Thank you for watching! Check out our Strength Unknown playlist! We have a Norway episode. We recently did a video in Scotland called “worlds strongest cousins” and will be returning there in a few months for another video 💪

Well, different animals, but true anyways The aizkolaris go through thicker trunks, from 36" to 108" (!)... not 12" to 32", like in the Stihl competitions you refer to And more importantly, they chop through non-dryed beech, not dry white pine... which has more than 3x the hardness

Thank you so much! Spread the word :D

they should be. European cultures dont get any recignition anymore, not at a per-nation basis. Outside of stereotypes of le pizza and baguette, its radio silence on the mainstream

Spanish.

​@@GenocideLvThey shouldn't. They have little economic or cultural sway in the world. Not every tiny little minority needs forced adulation from everyone else.

Omar Isuf was on History Channel. Anything is possible

Thank you! Pass it on! Show some people :D We love what we do.

nah netcrack will kill it somehow, someway. disrespect the history or something.

Cardio athlete vs strength athlete in a cardio event.

XD

They do small serialized videos. I like the short length. Easily digestible content.

Thank you! We may compile it all into one documentary along the lines... until then, enjoy! And spread the word!

Thank you for watching! Show your friends :D We love what we do and want to do more of it!

I, too live in Spain and didn't know this existed. It is SO compelling! Beautiful sport, beautiful tradition.

La pelota mano en todas sus modalidades son yamada pelota vasca y todo este deporte sale del campo en desafíos también es cierto ke los deportistas vascos de todas las modalidades de deporte rural fue la jeneraciones pasadas la última hornada más de 35 años pero ay muchas pruebas con animales buelles vacas caballos burros carneros ectra antaño gallos carneros ectra

@@MartinsLicis i miss your old intro with the pop music, shades, and your entire team goofing around....

We spaniards know well how amazing is Basque culture, greetings from Andalucia

Es un ejemplo de cómo presentar nuestra cultura al mundo. A veces se necesita de la mirada nueva de alguien de fuera para celebrar aquello nuestro que damos por supuesto. Qué gran vídeo/documental.

Me too!

Hagan festivales, metan marketing, vendan como espectaculo, acá en Argentina se cansan de ganar plata los festivales autóctonos de destrezas gauchas.

Son la ultima esperanza de europa occidental, no dejen morir esta cultura increible

I was even more nervous trying it! Crazy scary. Please pass the video along :D We want to make more content like this.

Deffo something more to this than short youtube videos.

Yes please, Netflix, do sign us up! :D ... please share with your friends, and maybe one day it will!

My pleasure! Please share the video! We want to keep doing this. :D

Mira todos los vídeos Demetrius y modalidades en pelota con animales ectra en el país vasco francés cambian algunas cosas pero el fondo es el mismo yo soy Vasco y participe en sokatira ya Ace más de 44 años y carreras de burros o en Vasco asto lasterketa en euskera pero ay decenas de deportes del campo la Malloria ke falta personal para hacerlo y darle vida muchas veces a nivel internacional

I'm planning a trip to Getxo just to see this stuff!

Me too! I’m from Getxo too.

That's beautiful... reminds me why we do what we do! Please share the video!

She's a machine!

Romark is such a fantastic videographer and artist.

Un comentario que dice mucho de tu persona Guillermo, muchas gracias!! Y que sepas que falta gente como tú en este pais ❤

I think Martins realized that when he had that steak. 🤣🤣

So, so true. Basque chefs famous the world over.

Right!? We want to keep going, meet more unique athletes and make so many more videos like this. Please share with your friends. :D

Ha ha! YES!!😂
