Catch a bus - no pull a bus STRONGMAN EVENT 13TH October


Museum, Muscle and buses STOP in Rotherham.

This Sunday a special event takes places in Rotherham. Instead of catching a bus strongmen and strongwomen athletes from across the country will take on the challenge of pulling buses using a harness and rope as fast as they can to win the title of ‘Man Beast Bus Pulling Championships 2019.

This will take place in a museum – this is certainly an unusual competition venue that houses some of the country’s finest nostalgic vehicles from a by gone era.



Paul Smith (former World’s strongest junior, 2019 Peak District Highland Games Champion and England’s strongest man 2016), Joe Bromiley Liverpool’s strongest man, Simon Knowles Yorkshire’s strongest man 2017 and Doncaster’s strongest man are amongst some of the big names taking part.

The competition, run by Man Beast strongman events of Doncaster will be referee’d by two times Guinness World Record holder Mark Anglesea and will take place at the South Yorkshire Transport Museum on Aldwarke Way, Rotherham, 9 Waddington way S65 3SH on Sunday 13th October from 11am.



Andrew Picken founder of Man Beast strongman events ‘ This is our most unusual venue to host such a competition. It is always a favourite event in World’s strongest man that’s dons our TV sets over Christmas so why not see it live here in Rotherham.

There will be 4 categories including Novice, women’s, inters and opens and the aim of the competition is to pull the bus the fastest time over 20 metres using strength and fitness alone. We have 8 tonne, 12 tonne and then a massive 22 tonne 2 vehicle for the big boys.



Philip Morton from the museum commented ‘ to have such a unique event at our open day will certainly be exciting and different and will help showcase our amazing vehicles and museum. We are looking forward to a great event.

Normal museum prices apply.

On a weekend of unpredictable weather at Clifton Park Rotherham Show the rain didn't manage to stop Yorkshire's strongest man under 105 kg and opens competition where the title did indeed swap hands. With a series of strength events designed to test mental and physical strength the crowd were treated to some classic World strongman events including the atlas stones for repetitions to end the competition with. Judged by England's strongest man Phil Roberts and the World's NEW strongest Junior Paul Smith both from Sheffield, the competitors knew they were being watched by some of the best in THE sport - raising their game with some personal bests and heavy lifts.
