Just saying for the non-wrestling fans, this is Braun Strowman. He is the best thing about Wrestling right now, everything he does is gold
Aphexius
GET THESE HANDS!!
Klorithor
For example
GrampaJack
"everything he does" or everything they script for him?
TheAngryMarineBiologist
I mean yeah, he's playing a character. It's like saying any other character is awesome. Though he does have a pretty awesome YouTube channel
Aphexius
Is he not doing it himself?
GrampaJack
Just trying to make sure we credit ALL the talent involved. If he has great lines it because A) he has great delivery & B) great Writers!!
Sleevey27
As someone who is not that strong but played upright for a few years now, that’s not as hard as it looks. Holding it like an axe over 1/2
Sleevey27
Your head hoping your band teacher will notice you, that’s hard. 2/2
IAmNotAVeryCreativePerson
Of course not, they're hollow. It probably weighs less than an olympic barbell, which are not hard to lift on their own.
IAmNotAVeryCreativePerson
Also seeing how the scene played out it's probably a fake one so it should weigh even less.
Sleevey27
That being said, carrying an upright across campus can be tiring just because it’s a cumbersome instrument.
SailorJimmy
Here's his tinder profile:

He also enjoys telling people that he's not done with them, and that they're "going to catch these hands".

How exactly does one roll a 20 on 3d6?
radikalskippy
House rules. My DM has a rule where if you roll all 1s then it's a 20. He also lets us roll a D20 instead of 3D6 for stats.
Molvanian
Look if Braun Strowman told me his character had a 20 strength I'm not going to argue.
LilPuddinTator
Two upside down sixes and a two all sprinkled with just the right amount of stupidity.
igorbarenschlager
Maybe half orc, +2 racial modifier?
spikestevens
If any real person is part orc it's Braun Fucking Strowman
theovermynd
4d6 drop lowest, racial modifiers, my dm has a rule that if you roll 4 of the same that's what you keep. Could be a 4, could be 24.

KiwiGameDev
I’ve seen people who have just rolled 6d20 for stats. Absolute crazy
majinrat
18, 1, 16, 18, 2, 3 that is gonna be a well rounded character XD
KiwiGameDev
I know right?! Like 3 is already completely inept (3 is when sapient creatures just become so) so how did they think a 1 was gonna go?
majinrat
they are a gelatinous cube (only thing i could find with multiple 1's) so get your riding belt and punch in the direction you wanna go
majinrat
... crap that might be a interesting role play (short campaign only)
cirnonine
Carefully
Treblaine
High charisma smooths over little inconsistencies like that.
GozerTheGozerian
I'm they mean a natural 20 on strength roll, either for a weapon or saving throw or grapple or athletics check, etc.
Spudders
Don’t people usually roll 4d6 drop lowest?
nouseforaheart
yes
j0lt78
That doesn't change the maximum possible roll of 18, though.
Spudders
modifier. Goliath gets a +2 to Strength
error404fucksnotfound
dracoslayer16
Likely a Strength check rather than their actual stat.
ConspiracyCritic
You invest your points wisely at level 4.
gr0gdor
Or it’s a d20 str check,like for grapple.
TakNoPants
Except unless they are very weak they wouldn’t have to make the roll for somthing that weight
zFUBARz
Fuckin wish my DM took base stats into consideration more. Makes you role for everything.
TakNoPants
Doesn’t make any sense and sounds tedious. Someone with 18 str shouldn’t have to roll to pick up an object like a keg.
zFUBARz
Oh it is, my performance's (Bard) are 10+ by default. I'm gonna pass the roll. Just assume unless I'm being fancy about something/drunk/etc.

Hello
hwatL4bloopy
he's human so he got 18 and added his racial 2 to strength

KiwiGameDev
Aye Pathfinder is a nice system, starfinder too
KthulhuXx
Not really. It's a pretty crap system.
hwatL4bloopy
Big fan of Pathfinder it's more internally consistent and easy to edit
MithridateEupator
Lots of ways to do stats. Also some versions have straight stat check rolls, so it could be that. Ass.

Currently playing a half-orc bard. 18 Ch, 16 Str. On the off chance he can't persuade you or make you swoon, he'll smash pretty good. :)

Or half-orc barf who sings death metal!
Ignak
bard even :D
AshRandom
Barf was half-dog
XdashXexclamationVapostropheapostrpheQ
Or house rules. Rolling trip 6 for stats gave you one more d6 for higher stats. The PC was considered blessed or gifted. At least in my game
WillParker
Rifts (and Palladium generally) let you keep rolling until you got no more sixes, IIRC. Not that stats for humans mattered. #MEGADAMAGE
CraigKrieger
4d6 drop the lowest die. Reroll pairs of 1s and 2s.
XdashXexclamationVapostropheapostrpheQ
Allowing 2s for reroll? You're a generous God.
CraigKrieger
Not anymore though. We’re in 5th edition. It’s standard array. No rolling. No point buy. Just 15,14,13,12,10,8.
zFUBARz
You can still roll in 5th... Or do you mean you just don't allow it?
cardboardunderwear
Didn't strength have something like that? A human with a natural 18 got to roll a percentage for extraordinary strength. It's been awhile
meredelaine
In AD&D that was the case yes. In 3.0 onwards races began getting higher bonuses to stats. Elves in 3.5 get a +2 to Dex and a -2 to Con
XdashXexclamationVapostropheapostrpheQ
My troupe and I improvised a lot. We had all the books but reading is hard...
METHematics
Indeed it is!

It's awesome. I played as a teen and haven't played in years but the comments bring back memories.

Shohanna
They dated themselves. I recognized it. LOL
UrQuanMaster
Just giving upvote because I roll 1st edition with a few nods to 2e for non weaps. Rolling 18/00 was always the goal
DungeonMasterDorkly
That was back in Advanced D&D. It has been simplified a lot since then.
Chainhealer
Really? I played AD&D till a decade ago or so, it wasn't that complicated was it?
DungeonMasterDorkly
Not really, but they wanted a more mainstream and streamlined system to appeal to a wider audience.
VladimirsKacs
Mathematical!

WotC dropped the "Advanced" designation after 2e, think of that what you will...
