A few screw ups at the start because I was new to strapping, but I feel I did well considering the last bell I had rung was only 10cwt

This bell is nicknamed 'Grandisson' (after a medieval Bishop of Exeter) and is the second-heaviest change ringing bell in the world, weighing 72cwt, or 3.6 tons. It's also incredibly satisfying to ring.
