On June 1st, at the Qiandao Lake Tanwan Festival in Hangzhou, War Horse Energy Beverage initiated a groundbreaking strongman ultimate challenge. The event featured China’s Strongest champion, Mr. Wu Jinsong, who took on an extreme test of human strength and mechanical engineering.
Strongman is a modern competitive sport with deep historical roots, whose core appeal lies in pushing the absolute limits of human strength. Common events include deadlifting giant tires, shouldering massive stone pillars, farmer's walks, and log lifts. This upcoming challenge—a combined loading of heavy-duty trucks and helicopters—marks its groundbreaking debut in China.
This challenge innovatively combined a 12-meter-long container truck and a Bell 505 helicopter into an 18-ton composite load, creating a dual test of aviation precision and raw strength. The first stage was executed by Reignwood Aviation’s Chief Pilot, Mr. Cao Wei, who demonstrated exceptional skill by overcoming wind shear and turbulence to land the helicopter precisely on the truck’s container roof—a target only 2.5 meters wide—successfully assembling the composite load. In the second stage, strongman Wu Jinsong, using only a single harness, relied solely on his body strength to 18-ton aircraft-loaded truck horizontally for 20 meters. Both men completed their tasks flawlessly, marking the triumphant success of War Horse Strongman’s Ultimate Challenge.
The sheer spectacle of the challenge ignited warm response from the crowd, who spontaneously erupted in synchronized cheers. The moment the attempt succeeded, deafening applause and roars of celebration exploded across the venue, saturating the air with the thrill of witnessing history and profound respect for the challengers. Guest performer and singer Hao Yun was stunned, exclaiming, “The clash of mechanical monsters and human strength was absolutely intense!” Renowned Chinese strongman Yue Yang commented after the event: “This was not just a display of raw power—it was a symphony of strength, technique, and courage. Wu Jinsong’s harness pulling technique and Cao Wei’s flight control were both breathtaking. I sincerely thank War Horse for creating such a rare opportunity.”
After his success, Wu Jinsong admitted, “Pulling an 18-ton composite, especially knowing there was a helicopter on top, imposed immense psychological pressure. Every inch of movement required activating every muscle in my body. It wasn’t just a battle against weight—it was a battle against mental limits. I’m grateful for the team’s trust and the energy support from War Horse helping me sustain to the finish . I’m honored to be part of this pioneering challenge in China.”
