Fraser Tranter

Fraser Tranter, born on 1 December 1965 in Wolverhampton, is a British strongman competitor best known for his appearance at the 1998 World's Strongest Man in Morocco and for podium finishes at the 1997 and 1998 UK Strongman Docklands Challenge, a televised national contest that then held a status comparable to Britain's Strongest Man. He first drew national attention by winning the Birmingham strongest man contests in 1995 and 1996, took second place at the 1998 Docklands Challenge after a Farmer's Walk win, and did not progress past the heats at the World's Strongest Man finals. He represented Great Britain in Finland and South Africa, holds a Guinness record in the 24 hour team bench press and a British record in the Farmer's Walk, and later founded a security staffing firm.
