After the toss
Yet another from The Highland Games. This extremely strong and well co-ordinated man had just competed in the caber toss. No wonder he was massaging his hands … the caber is around 6m long and weighs 79kg!

I remember seeing this guy last year carrying the heavy weights. I can't remember what they were called. These blokes are very strong. Great shot.
