Mr. World 2010: Red team wins in the Marine Training challenge

The Top 5 challengers from each of the 4 groups of Mr. World 2010 delegates faced each other this Monday morning, March 15, for another sports challenge, a marine training with the Korean Marine Corps.

Twenty (20) challengers (5 each from the Black, Blue, Red and Yellow teams) embarked on a physically-challenging race on a beach at the Silmi Island in South Korea despite the light but cold rain. It was a race with a twist as the 4 teams each had to carry a rubber boat weighing 100 kilos atop their heads.

It was a close fight between the Yellow Team and the Red Team.

And the Red Team emerged as champion which was composed of Mr. Philippines Alvin De Joya, Mr. Russia Sergey Kolenchikov, Mr. Sweden Alexander Shirpey, Mr. South Africa Jaco de Bruyn and Mr. USA Ivan Rusilko. Congrats guys! These 5 have proven that they are the most physically-fit of them all and have been called as Mr. World Marine Champions.

In 2nd place was the Yellow Team consisting of Mr. France Mohammed Al Maiman, Mr. Guadeloupe Emmanuel Binga, Mr. Ireland Kamal Ibrahim, Mr. Kazakhstan Roman Mironov and Mr. Kenya Linanda Kotengo.

The Blue team meanwhile was in 3rd place. Blue Team members included Mr. Angola Jorge Martins, Mr. Belarus Mihail Baranov, Mr. Canada Ron Wear, Mr. Cyprus Christos Christodoulides and Mr. Denmark Kevin Skroder.

The Black team was disqualified in the middle of the challenge because they dropped the boat. The challengers from the Black group were Mr. Lebanon Abdel Balaa, Mr. Macedonia FYRO Ivan Niksik, Mr. Mexico Alvaro Álvarez, Mr. Netherlands Honza Filipi and Mr. Norway Chris Andre Eileng.
