Huffing, puffing and screaming, Bronson Tiwanak already had a stranglehold on victory when he trudged across the red line. However, the 16,000-plus pound semi-trailer tractor cab that he was pulling had not.
After a brief rest on the ground, Tiwanak trucked on himself and finished.
There was lots of gain and, as it turns out, little pain Saturday for Tiwanak, who easily repeated as champion at a strongman competition at the Big Island Substance Abuse Council’s Summer Jam at Waiakea High.
“My legs didn’t hurt,” Tiwanak said.
