Watch some of the United States strongest athletes compete in sporting events dating back to the 11th century, when King Malcolm III summoned his countrymen to compete in a foot race that would determine who would become his royal messenger.

The United States Caber Toss Championship is part of a traditional Scottish athletic
event in which competitors throw a large tapered pole called a
"caber". Those with the best technique and Strength will prosper and win. 

With a prize pot of $1,500 this is going to be a battle! All over Scotland are remnants of ancient tests of strength — lifting stones, formed over the centuries by nature, each has its own history and local lore. A relative few still know about and seek out these ancient stones.
