The Strongest Man in the World Page #8

is a little bit out of shape, but don't let that fool you. Remember, the cardinal

rule of any sport. It's not the muscle you have,

but how you use it. (CHUCKLING) (DRUM ROLL) Higgins, what's he doing now?

This is embarrassing. (DRUM ROLL CONTINUES) (DRUM ROLL CONTINUES) (CROWD GASPING) (ALL LAUGHING) (LAUGHTER CONTINUES) Atta boy, Porky, take it easy. It's okay, Porky.

Everything's gonna be all right. (COUGHS) (MEN CLAMORING) (SOBBING) Gone. Everything's gone. I'm sorry, Aunt Harriet.

I just don't know what happened. ANNOUNCER: For State,

attempting 275 pounds... Oh, leave me alone! ...will be Sam Nicoletti. (CROWD CHEERING) - Professor Quigley?

- Uh, yeah, Hector? Well, you know,

since the cereal thing didn't work, we were just wondering

if maybe you might be interested in, uh, an honorable surrender. Sit down, Hector. Now, look, you guys, let's get one thing straight. This meet is not over yet. - It isn't?

- I've never seen anything more over. ANNOUNCER: So then Yablonski

of State pressed 350 pounds. Then it was Medfield's turn again. (BIKE HORN HONKS) (CAR HORN HONKING) (SIREN WAILING) Hey, kid, we appreciate

you keepin' the speed down, but don't you think

this is being a little bit ridiculous? Uh, I'm sorry, but I can't go any faster. The next contestant for Medfield

is Slither Roth, who will lift... (CHUCKLES)

That is try to lift 100 pounds. It looks like they've

changed their strategy. They're going

down in weight instead of up. (CROWD CHEERING) Well, ladies and gentlemen,

once again we have a Medfield contestant who

doesn't look overly strong, but he does look

like he has a lot of confidence. I admire that. Don't you? (CHUCKLING) (CROWD MURMURING) (DRUM ROLL) (DRUM ROLL CONTINUES) (CROWD MURMURING) (DRUM ROLL CONTINUES) - (WHISTLE BLOWS)

- He did it! (CROWD CHEERING) (CROWD GASPING) (WHISTLE BLOWS) His muscles seem to have frozen.

He can't let go of the barbell. (ALL LAUGHING) (WHISTLE BLOWS) Let go of it! Ooh! Ohhh! (YELLING) (ALL LAUGHING) (BAND PLAYS FANFARE) - That's the acid taste.

- (DOOR OPENS) AJ Arno. What are you... Okay, Dexter, we'll take that formula. Uh, why? It doesn't even work. (GRUNTS) See? Oh, that's all right.

We'll take it anyway. Go get it, boys. (MEN YELLING) - Ah!

- It's you. You leave me alone, young man. You were behind this

all the time, weren't ya? I'm warning you, young man.

Now, you let me go. DEXTER: Hey, fellas! Here's your captain! Strike! (DRUM ROLL) Yaah! - (WHISTLE BLOWS)

- (CROWD CHEERING) Yaaaah! And now for Medfield's

last contestant and last hope, Dexter Riley. (LAUGHS) In order for Medfield to win, Dexter will have to lift over 1100 pounds. What do you mean,

he's out for equipment repair? He's gonna need more

than equipment repair to lift that thing. ANNOUNCER: The referee is allowing

Dexter Riley exactly four minutes. Four minutes?

How can I get there in four minutes? (ENGINE RUMBLING) (ALL COUGHING) (SIREN BLARING) (SIREN BLARING) (SCREECHING) I don't know what's

happened with you kids, but you sure change

your drivin' habits fast. Let me have your operator's license. Uh, I'm afraid I left it

in my clothes back at the gym. That just makes it worse, kid. Hope you got license

plates on this thing. - Well...

- Charley, wipe that off, will you? ANNOUNCER: Now I see

we're down to our final two minutes. Now, if Dexter Riley doesn't appear

and perform by that time, it will be all over. Two minutes? (BELL DINGS) I'm sorry. I gotta go! - Where is that kid?

- Don't yell at me! I told you, he's out for,

uh, uh, equipment repair. Why don't you call this whole farce off? That kid's not out for equipment repairs,

and you know it. - Let's face it. He's run out on you.

- How dare you! If Dean Wiggins says the boy is

out for equipment repairs, the boy is out for equipment repairs. Right, Wiggins? - Higgins, not wiggins! Higgins!

- Higgins! (TIRES SCREECHING) - My car.

- DEXTER:
Don't worry about it, Dean. It's just a question

of replacing a few parts. The only thing left is Annabelle. ANNOUNCER: Dexter Riley,

attempting 1111 pounds. (CROWD CHEERING) (DRUM ROLL) (GRUNTS) (DRUM ROLL CONTINUES) (GRUNTS) Oh, no. It's going! I gotta get some more cereal, ref. (ALL MURMURING) Hurry up, kid.

You haven't got much time! - I'm all set now, ref.

- What was that? That's Dexter Riley. He's a member

of our weight lifting team. (MURMURING CONTINUES) (DRUM ROLL) It's working, Dexter. Come on! Ooh! Come on! (APPLAUSE, CHEERING) (WHISTLE BLOWS) He did it! He did it!

Medfield's won the meet! Dexter Riley is

the strongest man in the world! TEAM: We are number one!

Hey! We are number one! Hey! We are number one! Hey!

We are number one! Hey! We are number one! Hey!

We are number one! Hey! We are number one! Hey!

We are number one! Hey! We are number one! Hey!

We are number one! Hey! (COUGHING) We are number one! Hey!

We are number one! Hey! We are number one! Hey!

We are number one! Hey! (CHANTING CONTINUES)
