Wow just hands down wow.. what a series ☝️💪 This epic strong man experience, seeing the sportsmanship and hearing the stories. Thanks a lot the WRECK IT TEAM are the best.
10:30 lol, when he started talking about how far the gym was away from his house, I was expecting it to be hours away, and then he says it's 10 minutes 😂
"The strenght I hold, I cannot claim all credit for. Every generation of strenght pushed the next. Their is a homage owed to those who inspired us" This is probably the most beautiful thing I heard from strongman. Sounds like it is straight from an antic philosopher text.
Thats the truth. I can say i got very proportional and muscular body. People come up to me regularly and give me compliments. I always answer: Its not me. It`s my parents and their parents. I`m gonna say thanks to them when i get home.
I love how Big Z instantly picked Brian Shaw first in his team because he acknowledges how good he is. Likewise Brian holds such a high regard for Big Z.. I love the respect in Strongman and proud to be part of this community.
People keep saying that if Brian can win his 5th, he will be the greatest... people keep saying if Tom can win a couple more and the Arnold's, he will go down as the greatest... to them I say, Look at that man's trophy room!! Big Z is the greatest because he has not only won the biggest shows multiple times, but most of the littler shows as well. The only contests he has not won are the ones that got started after his semi-retirment or was not invited too. I LOVE all Strongmen! I love this sport! And I cheer for everyone. But Biz Z is Big Z. The greatest ever!
Also, super glad to see Big Z is living comfortably. It breaks my heart when a hero of mine is coming to the end of their career and are broke or having to do embarrassing things to pay bills.
I remember watching an interview with Brian in 2010 where he said that he and Z didn't like each other. But that's normal rivalry. They've buried the hatchet long ago and seem to get along well now.
@@guanjun1178 I think a lot of that stemmed from Brian's wife, Kerry. She was formerly married to another strongman who had passed away, and I think Big Z was close buddies with him. I can't say with 100% certainty but I recall reading something along those lines a year or so back on a reddit thread. I think some of the beef came from that, and them being top competitors probably is what brought it over to a boil.
Cool of you to track Raimonds down. He was part of the generation that got me into strongman, many of them don't do social media so it's always nice to catch up with them this way.
This was a real treat. Big Z was my favorite for a long time and now Martins is. Great to see you guys together! Maybe Martins can take Z up on some of that coaching????
No one is even closer, most of the others competed only in the bigger shows... Big Z competed for the most time and did every kind of competition, owning them all
Honestly, Martin has the best fitness content on this entire platform. The videos are so well edited and never tries to do too much just for viewership. Never change man, you are doing amazing work here
2 роки тому+3
You could do a thousando colabs before Martins, love you for sure, but none colabs I've watched so far. But saw Big Z on the title?? Clicked IMMEDIATELY, like in 0.01 second. Z is simply the Goat of modern strength athletics. 😉
I absolutely love this series. It reminds me of History Channel's Strongest Man in History series they did but this feels way more personal. If Martins ever gives up strongman I'd love to see him have his own TV series
Both Brian Shaw and JF deadlifted 1k lbs or 456kg in a video in like 2018 or 2019 in training, Brian has yet to officially deadlift that in a competition with normal weights no elephant bar deadlift hummer tire, etc
Heaviest competition Super Yoke was at the Arnold's, and it was 1565 lbs. Brian had the fastest time, and I think Brian and Thor may be the only ones to complete it, maybe Mateusz as well. Dude's a freak with heavy yoke.
@@a-a-rondavis9438 1565 pounds is 711.3 kg which is the official W.R. , big z said he did 750 kg which 1650 pounds in training which is more than the W.R but still unofficial.
I’m assuming those cows were curious as to why there was a dragon in their field. Love this series. So cool to see this side of the baltics, they don’t teach this in school. Looking forward to more of these! Thanks Martins and Romark!
I don't understand how this channel doesn't have more subscribers and followers! Those "short documentaries" paired perfectly the world of Strongmen and history of the sport. Love it! MARTINNNSSSS!
Your farm is so idyllic and beautiful. The Baltic area has some of the prettiest landscapes anywhere! Lithuanian is indeed one of the oldest Indo-European languages- in that it preserves many of the original features that linguists believe go back thousands of years that other IE languages lost over time.
I’ve been watching a lot of bodybuilding documentaries on Netflix while I work out and this is seriously on the same level of quality as some of the most popular and even better quality than some. Please don’t stop
Damn you can really hear the intensity from Big Z when he's got the mic and is lifting stuff. This was a great video and I really enjoyed watching it, these places are so beautiful, I'd almost be depressed if I visited those places and had to go back to the city haha :)
These are wonderful episodes, and this is the best one yet. Is it just me, or was it strange there was no one else there on Big Z's B-day? He must be a very private, introverted individual.
It could also be birthdays just don't keep up their importance as one ages in Lithuania, like it does in the U.S.. Once you're an adult, no one gives a crap about your birthday, especially if you don't make a big effort to plan one. I do see Big Z as a very reserved individual just living his life with his spouse.
@@a-a-rondavis9438 I agree. One of the many things I like and respect about Big Z is his quiet confidence. He proves you can be an alpha without being the loudest, most belligerent guy in the room. Also, I I wish people in the US would get over the birthday thing once they are adults; it is ridiculous!
This was a beautiful episode. Very relaxing to watch. At this rate you'll over take Rogue in the quality of these strength documentary's very soon, if not already!
The quality of your content is rising so much Matin! Particulartly for this Strenght unknown series, wich is beyond awesome, the quality is pro level. Good job Romark and Martin!
Some perspective; Martins is a big dude himself, and strong enough to win the world's strongest man in 2019, and recently the rogue invitational, yet Big Z seems like a giant next to him. I cant fathom how it would feel to stand amongst these dudes and feel so tiny haha
You just have to love what these guys are doing... this series has been so inspiring! THank you so much for this Martins, Roman, and team! Much love from Barcelona!!!
He needs beeger room for trofees! They need to put his shoulders in the museum of his hometown. They need to do a series of Netflix docs on some of the WSMen
Hell yeah guys. One of the best ever, if not the best. still remember big z when he started. Soo amazing to see the big guy going strong still. Good luck to u both and God bless.
Thank you, guys, for watching! We are sorry for the delayed upload. Uhhh…Training!
You can watch that on here too. Tues, Thursday, Friday!
You look like you have leaned out quite a bit.
Wow just hands down wow.. what a series ☝️💪
This epic strong man experience, seeing the sportsmanship and hearing the stories.
Thanks a lot the WRECK IT TEAM are the best.
If i Could give Rate, 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐. Love to see my Scandinavia.
In next year you guys could come to Poland and train with Mateusz 💪
Will you go to Mateusz or Mariusz Pudzianowski?
15:15 Big Z pointing out a rainbow, smiling big, and the camera panning to no rainbow made me laugh so hard
Hahahah me too
I too, am an average nature enjoyer. I had a rainbow where I lived as well yesterday.
10:30 lol, when he started talking about how far the gym was away from his house, I was expecting it to be hours away, and then he says it's 10 minutes 😂
for a strongman that's too much cardio haha
Lol
i lold hard at that ngl
His trophy room is insane. Puts the volume of his accomplishments in a visual metric, and it's astounding to see honestly.
It looks like a shop!
There's another room
It’s really absurd how good he was and for how long
He's truly the GOAT
I died at 15:10
"Rainbow"
Romarc pans over to nothing and there is still a sense of accomplishment pointing it out
lol I liked how Big Z was like "huh, rainbow. :)"
Rainbows can be very hard to capture on video, they can be very faint.
Human eyes have a much higher dynamic range than most cameras, making rainbows hard to capture on video.
Big Z mic'd up while he's lifting is hilarious. He sounds like an electric scooter.
lolol. So true
Haha... I think that's what controlled aggression sounds like!
I was thinking about a very angry cat.
Try to yoke 600kg like him in Arnold's we will see what noise you make ;-)
@@e.c.9468 I know what noise I'll make. Mostly crackling sounds :D
Nice to see Big Z relaxed and laughing, what a great guy. Well done to Martins and Romark for showing this side of him, great episode 👏
He is obviously a nice guy but not someone you want to upset. Even if wI didn't know he was GOAT it's just something you can understand.
Romark?, no romark there
Big z - “some events are good for me now”
Begins to list all events, truly a 🐐
But he still has two rooms full of world class strength champion trophies 🏆 do you ? lol
"Gym is very far. I need to drive 10 minutes..." This guy is a comedy genius! 😂
"The strenght I hold, I cannot claim all credit for. Every generation of strenght pushed the next. Their is a homage owed to those who inspired us"
This is probably the most beautiful thing I heard from strongman. Sounds like it is straight from an antic philosopher text.

strength
Big Z is the definition of Power Belly.
we desperately need a video of him training with Grizzly
Big Z is an absolute legend.. Great collab
Don’t disrespect big z like that he’s more than legendary
Magnús Ver Magnússon and Big Z .. meeting them goes on the bucket list! ..
@Jon Harsrm, I would have loved to meet Jon Pall Sigmarsson.
I love how Big Z instantly picked Brian Shaw first in his team because he acknowledges how good he is. Likewise Brian holds such a high regard for Big Z.. I love the respect in Strongman and proud to be part of this community.

Noone will ever again win the Arnolds for 8 times!
Hear hear
Brian has a crap ton of trophies from many many shows. I think it’s too close to call between Big Z and Brian
@@rmmm6725 No one comes close to Z, Brians great but he focused on 2 major comps each year, Z went to every single one and won most
Big Z sounds like an industrial tank on the verge of exploding when he's shifting tin. Absolute legend in the world of strength.
When Romark and Martins were singing Big Z happy birthday it made me genuinely happy
Verrry happy
I love seein Big Z reppin Brian's gear. Despite their rivalry, they seem to be good friends.
oh yeah theyre great buddies, you can find videos of them hanging out
It's definitly not Thor vs Eddie rivality
I guess they had some bad years in their prime. But maybe, at this level you can't be best buddies...
I remember watching an interview with Brian in 2010 where he said that he and Z didn't like each other. But that's normal rivalry. They've buried the hatchet long ago and seem to get along well now.

21:39 Big Z- “thanks” seems like a genuine man. And helping Martins with racking weight. Cool guy
Very wholesome
These videos have been supremely well done. Editing, shots, voice over work, everything. Very cool to see your travels.
bloody hell now that's a trophy room.
Big Z really is the GOAT.
And some weren't even there. Some are in a museum in town!
Cool of you to track Raimonds down. He was part of the generation that got me into strongman, many of them don't do social media so it's always nice to catch up with them this way.
He was one of my hero’s as a kid. Thanks Martins.
The amount of trophies Big Z has is insane. He's truly the greatest of all time
Bro 😎👍🏻🌟🏆💪
Big Z's trophy room puts every other strongman's to shame. It's not even close.
The fact big zs first name was brian without even bli king says so much about the battles an respect they have for each other
"The gym is soo far, like ten minute"
~Big Z
You may have to give Romark a raise if he keeps making these world class mini-documentaries.
This was a real treat. Big Z was my favorite for a long time and now Martins is. Great to see you guys together! Maybe Martins can take Z up on some of that coaching????
I love how most strongman that do youtube vlogs of their training are talkative and loud. When Big Z is training it's like a church. So peaceful.
I strive to be as chill as Z everyday. Please continue making more of these throughout the years.
It’s simple, just be very happy
Yeah super simple, just have the genetics to be the very best to ever live at a sport and that’s it……
That has to be one of the largest and most packed trophy rooms ever. I'd like to see a special on top level strongman trophy collections.
No one is even closer, most of the others competed only in the bigger shows... Big Z competed for the most time and did every kind of competition, owning them all
@@SoulGr0ove I bet you're right on that. But it would be cool to see some other competitors walls of achievements.
Mariusz had second most international wins with 41, Z has 82.
I felt my eyes widen when I saw Big Z's trophy wall
@7:28 - Big Z casually mentioning he has something like 250 trophies & it being difficult to remember all the trophies.
Big Z is so chill
👍🏻🏆💪🌟😎🧊
there is something extremely graceful about lifting with silence
Honestly, Martin has the best fitness content on this entire platform. The videos are so well edited and never tries to do too much just for viewership. Never change man, you are doing amazing work here
You could do a thousando colabs before Martins, love you for sure, but none colabs I've watched so far. But saw Big Z on the title?? Clicked IMMEDIATELY, like in 0.01 second. Z is simply the Goat of modern strength athletics. 😉
You're missing out
This is some of the best Strongman content ever!
If you ask why big z is the goat just watch his throphy collection
I absolutely love this series. It reminds me of History Channel's Strongest Man in History series they did but this feels way more personal. If Martins ever gives up strongman I'd love to see him have his own TV series
At 19:56 Big Z says he did 750 kg yoke in training which is heavier than the current official W.R. of 711 kg at the arnolds 2017.
Both Brian Shaw and JF deadlifted 1k lbs or 456kg in a video in like 2018 or 2019 in training, Brian has yet to officially deadlift that in a competition with normal weights no elephant bar deadlift hummer tire, etc

@@thefiendboxing1639 That has nothing to do with the original comment.
@@a-a-rondavis9438 1565 pounds is 711.3 kg which is the official W.R. , big z said he did 750 kg which 1650 pounds in training which is more than the W.R but still unofficial.
If it was anyone else you would doubt it, but its probably true, he is the goat after all.
Seeing his trophy room I don’t see how anyone can pass Big Z as the goat
Thor MAYBE had a chance if he didn't retire early.
Vytautas Lalas is an amazing Lithuanian strongman that competed against the tall guys. He was under six foot tall but came close to a WSM win.
Big Z is to strongman what Ronnie Coleman is to bodybuilding...absolute legend!
Damn you can hear Martins knees!
Big Z a legend st 47 just killin it
I’m assuming those cows were curious as to why there was a dragon in their field.
Love this series. So cool to see this side of the baltics, they don’t teach this in school. Looking forward to more of these! Thanks Martins and Romark!
Z is still so powerful! Great to see you two together.
His trophies have their own trophies. Hard to imagine the work that went into all those. That's like 5 long successful strongman careers in one.
Big Z is an machine. Too me; The back-to-back competitions he does makes him a machine. Training privately he sounds like a machine!
I don't understand how this channel doesn't have more subscribers and followers! Those "short documentaries" paired perfectly the world of Strongmen and history of the sport. Love it! MARTINNNSSSS!
Thanks!
A gym on your front porch…goals!
I've said it before...I'll say it again. Elite level content. Cheers, guys!!
I love how you guys get back to basics and give amazing insight into the lives and the grassroots of strength unknown. Loving this series.
One of the first time I'm on Martins's channel. I really like his narrative and the editing. It's like watching a documentary. Well done guys ! 👍
Watching this makes me Very Happy
Big Z is quietly one of the funniest guys around. Loved this one guys!
❤️love this video - so heartfelt. Great to see Big Z laughing ❤️❤️
Big Z seems to have halted the aging process... Nice
Thank you, Martins, for this series. Oh, and thank you as well, Romark.
No. Thank you!!!!
Your farm is so idyllic and beautiful. The Baltic area has some of the prettiest landscapes anywhere! Lithuanian is indeed one of the oldest Indo-European languages- in that it preserves many of the original features that linguists believe go back thousands of years that other IE languages lost over time.
That was amazing love seeing Big Z having fun with his b day and seeing such beutiful countryside.
I’ve been watching a lot of bodybuilding documentaries on Netflix while I work out and this is seriously on the same level of quality as some of the most popular and even better quality than some. Please don’t stop
What a beautiful production! Talk about a relaxing way to end my evening. From the cinematography to the narration; can’t wait for the next one.
Wow you can actually HEAR the power flowing out of zyndrunas
My two absolute favorite strongmen, love to see it!
Damn you can really hear the intensity from Big Z when he's got the mic and is lifting stuff.
This was a great video and I really enjoyed watching it, these places are so beautiful, I'd almost be depressed if I visited those places and had to go back to the city haha :)
Thank you!
This was so funny without even meaning to be. Big Zs blank stare and awkward pauses , and stops to point at a rainbow during squats 😂

You guys should 100% submit these tapes you tv channels! PBS or anyone. I'm not kidding these last 4 episodes are amazing and straight up beautiful
Once again you guys have combined some amazing videography with a great story and strongman heroes. Beautiful.
This was a beautiful episode. Very relaxing to watch. At this rate you'll over take Rogue in the quality of these strength documentary's very soon, if not already!
Super! Prieks, ka parādīji savu dzimto sētu un vispār Latviju! Ceru, ka biežāk redzēšu LV karogu Tavos video! 🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻
Thank you for the content! You are an excellent ambassador for Strongman International & Domestic.
Thanks so much for this episode. I am a huge fan of strongman and getting to see Big Z when he was relaxed and not in competition mode, was awesome.
He is just so smooth. It is insane how good he still is.
This might be my favourite video you've done. A sincere, beautiful treat. Thank you
3:38 First time heard his name with that (proper?) pronunciation!
The Z in Zydrunas is a little weird, but he says Savickas like Big Z himself, so its at least partially correct
The "Z" is actually "Ž" and it's pronounced like the French "J"
The production quality of this series is INSANE
Big Z’s house/property is straight up dream home material. Gym equipment included.
The quality of your content is rising so much Matin! Particulartly for this Strenght unknown series, wich is beyond awesome, the quality is pro level. Good job Romark and Martin!
Some perspective; Martins is a big dude himself, and strong enough to win the world's strongest man in 2019, and recently the rogue invitational, yet Big Z seems like a giant next to him.
I cant fathom how it would feel to stand amongst these dudes and feel so tiny haha
Big Z knows how to live life. that's exactly the kind of place I'd build for myself and my family if I was in his position. what a beautiful place
Awsome content! Love how all strongman events are related to farmwork. Its a real men sports. Greetings from Estonia
3:37 at that moment I fully appreciated this man's patience for having his name mispronounced for 20 fucking years
I mean the Zydrunas part is a little different than how Z says it, but Savickas was correct
There was a certain tranquility in the whole episode, I thoroughly enjoyed it, thank you, And Big Z is a legend!
You just have to love what these guys are doing... this series has been so inspiring! THank you so much for this Martins, Roman, and team!
Much love from Barcelona!!!
The 🐐
I love these Videos with Legends in day a life !!!
29:00 that cow is such a bro. No matter where you train, Martins, you're going to draw a crowd!
Incredible. So cool to see these legends in their homes and habitat 😎 Amazing work, Romark and Martins, and thank you!
That trophy room at Big Z's house is the Mecca of strength in this galaxy 💪💪💪
He needs beeger room for trofees! They need to put his shoulders in the museum of his hometown. They need to do a series of Netflix docs on some of the WSMen
I was a huge Bergmanis fan. Very happy to see he made the podium at WSM in 2002...
the baltics are incredible. my daughter is half lithuanian. strong and clever people.
I love what this vlog brings to the table. Always a fan of strongman.
Big Z , A true Strong man.
Respect and Love .
Hell yeah guys. One of the best ever, if not the best. still remember big z when he started. Soo amazing to see the big guy going strong still. Good luck to u both and God bless.
18:05, confirmed Big Z is part cyborg.
I like it how they casually doing legs squad with 500lb + for reps WOW i love it absolute legends
Strangely beautiful video must be so nice to do this in your child hood home! Loving this series!
I think this is my favorite episode of the series. Really great job guys. And what a beautiful accent you had when saying Big Z's full name. ❤️
