About The Bigg Pull
The Bigg Pull is a purpose-led national initiative designed to unite people around what we share, not what divides us. In this epic adventure, a Power Team will pull a truck from Centurion to Cape Town over 40 days, pushing their physical, mental, and spiritual limits.
The Challenge Led by legendary Wayne Price “the Gentle Giant” and his experienced team, the Power Team will face scorching heat, pouring rain, and gruelling physical demands. They'll take turns pulling the truck, resting in a luxurious bus waiting for when it's their turn to get pulling again. Food, medical supplies, and water will be fetched by support vehicles, allowing the team to focus on the task at hand.
Live Coverage
Watch live daily as they make their way from capital to coast, with live cameras and drones capturing every moment. The journey will take them through the heart of South Africa, and though the route is yet to be confirmed, they will pass through towns like Middelburg, Steynsburg, and Beaufort West.
