World's Strongest Team is an annual strongman contest organized by Ultimate Strongman that consists of two men teams (occasionally even three or four) from various countries all over the world. The teams are named according to their ancestral traits and geographical locations.
The contest was first held in 1995. Some of the famous annual events include team deadlifts, team deadlift static holds, super yokes, rock lifts, Atlas stones, four-man pole push, tug of war, medley, railway track farmers walk, Basque circle and arm over arm vehicle pull. In recent years it has been organised by Strongmen Glenn Ross and Eddie Hall in Stoke-on-Trent.
