The best way to get better at something is to do it, so yeah, im sure there's guys that invest in equipment to train exactly like they do stuff for the strongest man competition.

one of those blocks was 225kg that 495 pounds and he takeing it up some stairs and then going back for another one.
they must be able to deadlift shit loads.
also does any one know how much one of those big tyres weight.
one last question, as well as training by doing the things they would do in the man competition. i am guessing they would also do normal weight lifting such as bench press, deadlifts, swats, curls, push downs, pull downs, shoulder press...ect...
Man those guys are strong and big.
