Once placed 5th in a non-notable competition. No other claim to notability. No hints of notability generated in Google search. Bongo matic  02:22, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete World's Strongest Man IS a notable competition, but his performance in it was not. Themfromspace (talk) 03:26, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak delete. I was surprised that the only significant coverage I could find independent of both Sadler and the World's Strongest Man event was this from a local newspaper. This isn't enough, but if some significant coverage could be found, I would be happy to keep.--Michig (talk) 10:00, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep Athlete who has competed in his sport at the highest level. Duffbeerforme (talk) 10:27, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Don't see evidence in World's Strongest Man that the event qualifies as the "highest level" in "amateur sports" as contemplated in WP:ATHLETE. Bongo  matic  05:43, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * It appears there is no official highest level. I have read a sidebar to an article in Australian Inside Sport magazine #161 which seems to say World's Strongest Man (the "final" of the World's Strongest Man Super Series) is considered to be one of those at the highest level, if not the highest.
