Chloe Brennan, from Birchmoor, Tamworth, England, weighing under 63kg herself, making her first attempt to life the world famous 332.49kg Dinnie Stones at Potarch in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. After practising with loose weights, Chloe then attempts both unassisted and then strap lifts, clearing the ground on her final two lifts, giving her a successful partial lift in this challenge. A remarkable achievement and show of her determination. Guiding her was local strongman Brett Nicol, who has lifted the stones himself almost 300 times and her partner, strongman Matt Jones, whom was lifting the stones himself.

In May 2019, Chloe aged 23, became England’s Strongest Women in the under 63kg lightweight category at the Lichfield Bower. It was her third time tackling the contest, having come second in two attempts.

The Dinnie Stones are a pair of Scottish granite lifting stones , with iron rings affixed. They were made famous by strongman Donald Dinnie, who carried the stones barehanded across the width of the Potarch Bridge, a distance of 17 ft 1.5 in 1860. They remain in use as lifting stones and have a combined weight of 332.49 kilograms (733.0 lbs), with the larger stone weighing 188.02 kilograms (414.5 lbs) and the smaller stone weighing 144.47 kilograms (318.5 lbs).
