Tossing a caber has almost come to symbolise Scottish Highland Games and no gathering anywhere in the world would be complete without it. To toss a caber competitors run to build up momentum and aim so that their tossing caber turns over end-over-end to land in a straight line from where it was thrown.
This iconic highland game is an illustration of pure strength. Demonstrating that real, mighty heroes are not just a figment of our imagination, but a vital part of the highland games.
