2022 World’s Strongest Man: Day Two Qualifier Results
The second day of qualifiers featured two events — the car walk and log lift. This is the second day of three qualifiers where competitors will earn points in hopes of making it through to the finals over the weekend.
Before the second day of competition began, Evan Singleton announced that he will be returning to action. He went into anaphylactic shock prior to the start of day one and was unable to breathe. The reaction has subsided and Singleton will return to the field.
Car Walk
The car all led off day two in Sacramento. Competitors were asked to lift a hollowed out car and walk it down a 25-meter course. This is an event that tests speed and strength together. All parts of the body are engaged while the car is in the air because strongmen must keep it balanced while making sure the tires do not touch the ground.
