Featuring 13 of the best strongmen in the world, competing over two grueling days, Fortissimus was set under le chapiteau (a huge tent--the Big Top) pitched in a field outside the small town of Notre Dame du Rosaire, Quebec. Quebec is the home of the great Louis Cyr, and Fortissimus honored his memory by putting modern strongmen to tests of strength with historic ties. Fortissimus had strongman fans riveted to their seats, and it all came down to the last competitor on the last stone on the last event of the last day . . . .
This DVD highlights many of the superb performances in ten demanding events, and features Arild Haugen, Zydrunas Savickas, Andrus Murumets, Ervin Katona, Mark Felix, Travis Ortmayer, Louis-Philippe Jean, Dominic Filiou, Christian Savoie, Sebastian Wenta, Mikhail Koklyaev, Derek Poundstone, and Stefan Solvi Petursson. 1-3/4 hr.
