    Hmm... I thought they would be heavier than that. If it wasn't for my gimpy leg, I could probably do real well caber tossing...

    I base this on the fact that I can pick up and throw 150ish pound people, and toss them around like toys. Not that I'd do that any more mind you.

    I had always thought that the telephone poles being thrown were 300 pounds or something.

    I hear you talking, my days of any heavy lifting are over. Last year I suffered bilateral rotator cuff tears, my right shoulder was completely torn and the left was 95% torn through. The surgery sucked and I'm still recovering from it. Now, if I could just get my wife to stop poking the injury...Ouch, stop it! Ouch, stop it.! Ouch, stop it!
