Weight Stapling

In this event, athletes will compete to see who can staple the thickest packet of paper using a standard-issued stapler.

1. Should the staple not protrude through the back of the last sheet of paper, the athlete will be disqualified. This is certainly a risky event, as there are no second chances. One staple; that’s all each athlete gets.
2. For this event, there are weight brackets by gender:

• 39 to 42 kg (86 to 92 lb)
• 46 kg (101 lb)
• 50 kg (110 lb)
• 54 kg (119 lb)
• 58 kg (128 lb)
• 63 kg (139 lb)
• 69 kg (152 lb)
• 76 kg (167 lb)
• 85 kg (187 lb)
