Don't, um, make yourself fall short.

You know, it's it's so easy toe toe.

Except but nothing is gonna happen for you.

You know that You're just gonna be another number.

That's the easiest way to get a job.

95.

And that's easy.

It's it's except that something can happen.

But you have to put the work and it's just don't be scared off hard work and, you know, let the fire that you've gotten your Bailey, you know, translate into something good if you've got that passion and that Dr So I'm Tom Stoltmann.

I'm a professional strongman on one half of the world's strongest brothers.

My name's Luke Stoltmann, 35 years old.

I'm a professional strongman being the strongest brothers.

That's cool, but it's not.

Sell yourself short of the two strongest man in the world and to be Highlanders from Scotland, I will be epic, you know, finding someone something you love to do.

And I was never kind of the guy that want to go out on weekends and drinks.

So I thought I'd put all my time into the gym and get fit and just build myself up.

It was just more for me to meet my self confidence, confident around people meet new people and, yeah, kind of excel quickly from there for Tom and I strongest brothers in history First Brothers in history to ever meet the world's strongest man final.

That's never ending.

I just wanna make this name of legacy I wanna be I don't want to Just one world's strongest man once I just wanna win a multiple times I wanna break as many records as I can.

I just want this name to be like as soon as someone says Stroman, Remember this name?

Stoltmann.

They're making a legacy.

We've being the strongest brothers to ever live, which is mind boggling.

Like I said, coming from a small town in regard, doing something easy, you get a lot of reward from it doing something hard and succeeded in doing a marathon climbing Mount Everest left in 500 kg, put in 230 kg above your head.

Those are extremely hard things to do, but the reward is never end.

You need to do the hard path.

You can't just have it easy.

And if it was easy, everyone would do it to myself, improving love pushing my body to limits That's never been before.

And I just love that buzz When you do something like no other human congileo to kind of be the best in the world, you kind of have to, you know, go places where no one's gonna go and take your body to places No one's gonna go to be the strongest brothers ever loved.

If we said that 10 15 years ago, people would laugh at me, I've said to the promoters and stuff Tom and I are gonna be the strongest brothers that ever lived and they laughed at me.

The Highland Warrior aspect, you know, that's when I started kind of doing strongman and strength.

That's what you know.

I envisioned myself to be.

It's like almost like a modern day kind of Highland warrior.

You know, we're going to battle with the strongest man in the world, and that's what we wanna do.

We want a shore, Scotland for what it is.

It's ah, strong nation for the strong man.

And that's what has Bean historically, a teacher said, or you're not gonna do nothing on that kind of stuck with people have additional needs.

You know if this if someone says that, they'll believe it, and I believe that for a long, long time.

It doesn't matter where you're from.

It's really about how much you want toe succeed in something.

And I think wanting to be successful, you shouldn't have any of these excuses.

Yeah, whatever you want to do, whatever go you want to set?

What if it's the biggest goal?

Smallest goes.

Just go out and smash it because, you know, I'm kind of hoping example off it.

You know, I've moved hundreds and hundreds of people wrong, and that's what kind of I'm wanting a lot of other people to do.

And that's what I'm trying to show people, that just cause I've got Asperger's doesn't mean I'm going to sit back and not achieve goals.

You know, I'm gonna be the best in the world and I'm gonna be the best in the world.

So I just think positive, have a positive attitude, everything you do and just be around positive people.

You'll get fire in life for those two things you wanna get one life, don't don't throw it away by being in something that you hate doing it Z.

I think our mom passed passing away.

That really kind of install that kind of thinking.

It's like your life is just so fragile.

My mom was my biggest fun, you know, she came to every single competition I've done.

The last words she said to me was, Achieve, achieve what you want to do and that start with me And that's what she said.

Go for your dreams And my dream was to be world strides, man.

So that's kind of driven.

I have driven myself a look big time because she's still there in spirit, like I always have her on the back of my head like, what would One thing?

What would One thing It's a massive drive like that's given me since she's gone.

That's giving me an extra 2030% on every lift, like when you're watching someone good, but, uh, mhm the soil with mama for concert.

You're watching her, someone that's like that put me off everything, um, go through that much pin.

That's like I've pain not sworn in.

No, I've got sore knees.

That's not paying, man.

She inspired me Norway, and they're like, pushed through that.

Whatever limit that I thought I had.

I'm just pushing through, breaking through.

That's one of the reasons that was thinking about Mom.

Mom, you know, would want for me or what you want me to take a chance on.

Go out and get my passion.

But I'm I'm done offshore.

15 years in the publishing.

Well, I could have done that.

I could have done this.

I could have a strong man is kind of made me believe I'm more than just another number working for someone else.

You're just a number to that company.

But because of strong man, I'm I'm more than a number.

I'm I'm Luke Stoltmann professional, strong on one of the strongest man in the world for Tom and I to be putting assortment name in the history books, the first brothers in history to ever reach the world's strongest man final so effectively the strongest brothers, as everyone wants, a legacy I'm trying to create for my family, and that's a Z.

Everything at the moment in yourself, in situations that you never thought you could handle is a great feeling as well, you know, because, like I've been in a situation struggle where looks not be No, you know, I have to get out of it myself.

Don't make excuses on.

Just have some prayed what you dio just thio be the next big fingers because I want that title more than anything right now.

For me, it's most colossal title in the world, you know, like world's strongest man.

Just I know that it's possible.

Don't ever let anyone say that you can't do Tom and I are literally the living proof that you can't achieve it.

I won't stop until I get that title.

No.

One, nothing will get in my way.

And world's strongest man is what I see every day.

And when I'm in the gym and have the down days, that's world's strongest man goes through my head, and that's what keeps me going and keeps me in that next meal and easy path, hard path, hard path.

Every time, every time I'm gonna do a sport that I love it when the day I follow a love of it with the day I stop, I'm already planning a 3 53 69 stone list, so, like I want that started to be like no one can touch it like I doubt myself going in a competition.

I thought to myself, You know, it's like these guys have got so much more than I ever will have And there's so much stronger than the day I would love It will be the day I stop.

But if that means 15 strong with man Tate was gonna do.

But we're strong and you're away from family.

You have to kind of sacrifice a lot of things, and, you know, you have to be mentally and physically strong.

I think it's one of the toughest sports you can do.

And for me having our stereos, you know, on autism.

And, you know, telling put out there that, like people with disability, can't do stuff, you know, it's just a label on.

Yeah, Strongman's my life.

I left but even die the sport and I do because I love it, you know, Just take the plunge on 100%.

Just if you wanna do it, just go for it.

You know, that's two brothers.

They're not just national national stage, but unlike the world stage and kinda I proving to people that, like, you know, there's something in Scotland were gonna dominate the world.

I got into you that there's gonna be a one and to stop the world's strongest man in the next few years.

And we're both gonna win World's strongest man before he finished his career.

For us to be able to say that we are strongest brother ever loved on the two strongest men on the planet, that's a big drop, right?
