Show of strength at the Armouries
Visitors to the museum in Clarence Dock, Leeds, experienced the battle of the Celts against the Saxons in the show, as four of the UK's strongest men went head to head.
There were competitions throughout the day, featuring four strongmen including the current UK champion Jimmy Marku and Scotland's strongest man, Louis MacLean. They will also be at the museum again today.
