For the German readers:
And for those who can't understand german: There are some pictures, too.

(Don't know how long this link will work. It is from one of the most visited webpages in Germany!)

How good to see someone liberating himself from the constrains we put on ourselves! Very heroic... I can only imagine how free a man Tom feels right now. Very touching - thank you Tom Sietas!

Incredible Tom, congratulations!
I guess these STA and DNF records will remain unbeaten for a while, and make the rest of us feel humble (well, I already felt humble:-)
Going for DYN as well?

Unbelievable performance!

It'll take some serious time for others to catch up

I wonder how does his training look like...

Now there's just DYN, i can't wait
