During the Donald Dinnie Games, The Gathering III, held at Potarch on the Ballogie Estate in Aberdeenshire, Scotland in August 2019, strongmen and women tried lifting or carrying the famous Scottish Dinnie Stones.
Josh Brown from Blackburn in Lancashire in England made a carry attempt for the distance of the Ballogie Bridge, a feat started by Scottish strongman Donnald Dinnie. Afterwards Enzo Donadio at 64 years of age attempted to carry the stones but made a successful lift, as did strongman Tim Meadows.
The Dinnie Stones are a pair of Scottish granite lifting stones , with iron rings affixed. They were made famous by strongman Donald Dinnie, who carried the stones barehanded across the width of the Potarch Bridge, a distance of 17 ft 1.5 in 1860. They remain in use as lifting stones and have a combined weight of 332.49 kilograms (733.0 lbs), with the larger stone weighing 188.02 kilograms (414.5 lbs) and the smaller stone weighing 144.47 kilograms (318.5 lbs).
