The 12 Champions : 2- Sebastian WENTA, the Strongman

All the spectators of the Bressuire Highland Games in 2013 do remember Sebastian WENTA.

And all of them are really delighted to see him again at the château for the IHGF Worlds in June.

A Strongman and a Thrower

Everybody was impressed by his performances on June 8, 9 2013,  both as a Highland Games thrower and as a strongman.

Just click on his WENTA tag to remember his exceptionnal Games two years ago (articles in English and in French).

At that time he had impressed everybody.

Specially during the truck-pulling event where it was an exceptionnal show of pure strength!

" Master of the World Highland Games"

With his achievements and his performances, Seb is ambitious for the 2015 Worlds.

His latest mail to the blogger proves it:

"My ambition for the Worlds is to be the Master of the World Highland Games"
 
For the last IHGF Worlds in the US, he had finished third behind the two Americans.

This time in Bressuire, he wants to do better.

The wonderful setting at the château might be inspiring for the Strongman who finds "Bressuire very beautiful with a lot of interesting and historical places"

Twelve o'clock for caber-toss
 
For the Worlds, he will be one of the favorites.

And if  he doesn't become the 2015 World Champion, he will get a second chance in Bressuire.

A second title will be up for grabs after the combined events:the caber-toss world Championship.

And for this event, he always tries to be on time: at twelve o'clock, of course!

Sebastian WENTA has already won it three times: why not once more?
