Well done to 'The Beast'. Finally proving he's not just a deadlift freakshow. He's worked bloody hard for this. Hopefully he can win a few more!

Aye he`s had to weight until the real strong men are either deed or retired you mean. mad marius had gone off kickboxing, glen ross finally blew his arse out 7 year back
 
Delighted for or him! The first year I really got into it was the first year he competed and he's been my favourite ever since. It's ridiculous in these days of the internet that we have to wait to Christmas to see it though!

Which of the "big 4" missed out on the podium? I'm guessing Z?

:rolleyes: Yeah because Big Z, Shaw and Thor are shite like!

Is a bit like saying Messi and Ronaldo are shite because Maradonna and the real Ronaldo retired before they came on the scene!

Literally just been saying the same thing to my mate, the TV show is just ludicrous.

Did either of them ever deadlift 500kg? Or even the 475kg Eddie pulled in the final this year?

Nah, didn't think so.

He's beaten two of the all time greats and Hafthor Bjornsson man.

From his Facebook page. I had heard he was going to retire once he won it but I didn't (and still don't) think he'd go through with it!

It's not real man, it's like wrestling! The "balls" are just polystyrene!
 
Wow, nice one.. I was watching his documentary on Netflix (well worth a watch) he wanted to be worlds strongest man so much. I honestly thought it was out of his reach given the competition..

I do believe him. He's not living a healthy lifestyle and he knows it. Can't be nice having to sleep with an oxygen mask on.

He's very aware that he's got a young family that's more important than more titles.
