It's a tree chopping smaller treea
Lampmonster
I can't imagine how tough this dude's hands must be. Dude probably opens bottles that aren't twist offs without noticing.
MrFox999
Peak performance
StephenDaniels
So if trees had nightmares they'd star him?
Illneedaname
When he falls from grace whe changes his name and moves to NJ and ends up living next to talking fast food. Shenanigans ensue
Elroydb
He looks like he doesn't need the axe but uses it only because the rules require him to do so

I couldn't help myself.

r/gifsthatendtoosoon Great post though!

Booksellers--they hold 1000s of titles.
SEAW1NG
Good to see Carl, from AuquaTeam got work.
robotobophil
So he’s a good feller?
tred1975
No wonder with a well trained body like this.
ThinkThisOut
I bet his house is consistently over 100 degrees. As an avid wood splitter myself, it somehow taps a primal session to stoke the burner

Who set this thing on Head Games?
australind
One of the nicest blokes you could meet.
luluraeven
I've seen him at the Royal Easter Show. His daughter also competes. Build just like dad ?
Taltos111
His secret? Low low center of gravity.
ragazzino
I'd still wear steeltoes.
thricebakedxyz
And eye protection?
0ldGregg
This guy chops.
nosushi4me
Pork chops
gtollie
Yeah … but can he chop in tbe kitchen ? /s
Archeron
So, everyone else who shows up knows they're competing for 2nd?
ChristopherHallett
Basically, yeah.
Americanski
I’m pretty sure he lives next door to Frylock, Master Shake and Meatwad.
silentwolf1999
In awe of the size of this lad.

How much wood could a world champ chop? If a world champ would chop wood....
mccar7hy
I'll bet he buys chopped wood from the store though. Don't make your work your play
Fyreworx
Woodchopping and sheep dog trials. The only reason to go to the show when it comes around.
andymurd
Dippy dogs are a highlight, and if you really work hard you can lose your child
Idontevenwanttosignupjustletmelurk
The CWA would like a word with you mate. You will eat your lamington and make your nan happy or else!
corvandus
Hey be careful, the CWA are Wu Tang af. Don't fuck with them.
ChristopherHallett
Their cookbook is a household ESSENTIAL.
Toothpastetesticleburn
Do not fuck with the CWA they are ruthless
theoriginalandbestddps
Sheepdog trials get weird when they're found guilty.
OmEqualsMC2
Guilty…of what, exactly? Sheepdog cheating? I’m confused (my default setting, but there you have it).
likerice
This is what peak performance looks like
fbutt09
Streuuutttth…..that’s an Alpha male.

He sticks to a strict diet of eating whatever the fuck he wants to.

Neat read. Thank.
Ikwilstroopwaffels
It is. This is a guy who wrestles bears on a mountain, not a guy who poses in a speedo for Sports Illustrated.
practicallyperfect
While we have mountains over here in Australia, sadly we don’t have bears. And koalas don’t count. Maybe he wrestles cassowaries? ?
bluntforcedrama
I'd rather wrestle a bear.
Ikwilstroopwaffels
Uhhh, crocodiles or spiders or something. Eep.
practicallyperfect
Haha crocs are a better example. People have to Google cassowaries ?
marthafarquar
He won his 1000th title in 1998, he now has over 1800 including 186 World Titles, 168 Australian Titles and has won Tasmanian of the Year
CrazyMuffins
As a Tasmanian, I can say for sure he's a champ! ?
WeaponizedJerk
I had no fucking idea we had this many woodcutting competitions.
undungubungu
Has he been introduced to the technological marvel that is the chainsaw?
BL4UPUNKT
Chainsaws have limits, the way they split a block is likely to bind on the bar of a chainsaw.
AVaguelyFamiliarUsername
Legend says when he enters the woods, he parts the trees like Moses the sea.
htapoicoS
Man, Tasmanian of the Year! Even Brady couldn't win this one!
tg2222222
I'm surprised there's that many titles to win. How often are the competitions?!
AVaguelyFamiliarUsername
Every monday and ever 3rd friday of the month.
MrPositivePotato
would i be likely to see him at the Woodchop at the Easter Show (sydney) ?
marthafarquar
He retired in 2015 when he finally regained his double-handed sawing championship after coming second for four years.
MrPositivePotato
if he is retired let him be he has earned it i will watch others instead when my feet need a rest and im tired of the crafts/cake
dudetrustme
He’s 64yo now, so it’s unlikely he will compete. But his son, Stephan, will likely be there.
MrPositivePotato
cheers for the heads up :)
BallsDeepinaDragonscloaca
How many has Stephen won?
smirnovovich
Three
LLavaLLord
He just hosts the late show now
