Please note - when we say last hurrah - we are discussing a man who has competed for 25 years internationally, and the great success he has enjoyed and he enjoys this event - a major global contes - sees Zydrunas kicking ass once again. This was October 2017, an he yes he did other global contests - in fact he even competed at the World Tour Finals a year later, but he struggled with injuries. So please enjoy seeing the King at just about his all time best!!! Hence - ''the last hurrah'' is a fun title reminding people it wasn't that long ago he was not just the best over 40 athlete but that night he was the best of the best, whatever age they were.
just goes to show how powerful Big Z was and until now. He just crushing and keep making jaw dropping after jaw dropping. Even Eddie got knocked out despite his WSM 2017 win prior to this comp. He may now more focus on the master's class, but still can crush another titles. Truly one of the strongest to ever walk on earth.
So basically this was recorded 7 years ago because big z is 48 years old now and it says 41 in the show. Great production, but it would be great to have a timestamp on these for when the event was
Žydrūnas Savickas is by far the strongest strongman ever. It's not even close. Not just in his unmatched résumé, but the way he lifted inconceivable weights and made them look like they were nothing. Nobody will ever overhead press like Big Z could.
Great to see some strongman action again. So good to see Obi pick his game up, all the guys put in incredible performances! The speed of Best and Shiv for the old timers was mightily impressive. Huge congrats to Big Z. Biby improving all the time as too Janishia and a good show from Loz. Great line up, great show.
WSM was in May and this show was held Sept. 30. The problem is, they couldn't say anything about WSM results because they had, and STILL have, their mandatory, outdated 'wait until Christmas to air WSM on UK TV' thing. :/
Considering Z is retiring, the day has come watching strongman will become a struggle, with the insufferable likes of Evan Singleton carrying the sport forward. Z is why I adore this sport. Unmesureable strength, calm speaking, inteligent, humble, doesn't go all out chest beating, or covering himself with cliche alpha male dressings, like growing a gigantic beard, or covering himself with tatoos. Z is one of a kind in all senses.
You can celebrate the GOAT without trashing literally everyone else. Why did you feel the need to be SO negative and judgemental? Fans like you are not what the sport needs.

@@brianfox340 Could be here all day defending my hill, but for a starter, I like people that don't feel the need to go with the herd. Noticed how 85% of today's strongmen feel the need to be "manly" sporting a huge beard and bald head, all looking like they came from a cookie cutter machine? Ever noticed that? Z didn't feel the need to be part of a herd. Another point: I love the classic Greek values of powerful body, powerful mind. Being immensely strong and inteligent, like Z, doesn't require to beat on the chest or spit out "alpha male" lines all the time, like Eddie Hall and Evan Singleton. Z has immense strenght, but is inteligent, calm and collected. Just 2 arguments for you sir. Could go on the whole day. . EDIT: in many ways, a lot of GOATs will be similar to Z, like Lasha Talakhadze, John Brzenk, Ermes Gasparini, they are just themselves, calm, confident, inteligent. No need for chest beating, trash talking, massive beards, bald heads, tatoos. Just themselves, with calm and ease.
@ they should "be themselves", unless of course that includes a beard or getting amped up for a lift, because you've decided that's performative? Go ahead and clutch your pearls at the horror of beards and excitement, nobody is stopping you. But I can guarantee you that Z himself wouldn't want to hear you badmouthing the personality of everyone else in the sport, because he's better than that. I guess you just aren't. Be more like Big Z.
This and the shaw classic is my favorite shows. I was at WSM in Myrtle Beach and it was a complete shit show. You could barely see the events. So many people I talk to said they traveled so far and spent so much money to get there and they were so disappointed because they could not even watch the event. I hope WSM fix that stuff. Also, I’m so done with finding out the results the day of and then it coming on TV six months later. Takes away the excitement of watching it. WSM is still living in the 80s. Giants live and shaw classic run it the proper way
@@charles-mp9nt ok yes u was right I didn’t know that I just look at Arnold and them how he looks just full of muscle u know where u might not seeing it in them so thanks for teaching me about them

Big Z is the strongest man to ever walk the 🌎
Zydrunas’ shoulders need to be in the museum of strength.
This is a must watch competition for all Strongman-fans. The line-up cant get any better than this!
It was more entertaining. Too buddy-buddy now
A few others would make it better (e.g. Brian Shaw), but it was a fun line-up (although obviously a dehydrated Eddie Hall ;) )
Big z.. biggest inspiration in strongman....a true legend.
This may not be the “strongest” lineup ever, but this is like a dream line up with so many favorites.
No thor?

He is almost certainly the GOAT of modern times
@@GiantsLiveSTRONGMAN almost certainly is just for pc points. He is 100% for real the all time best in recorded history.

Most of the full shows on here are some years old.
regardless, he is one of the oldest and yet still can deliver an A class performance for the open class, let alone competing with the younger guys.
It was October 2017
It says Giant's Live Tour Finals 2017 at top of every points ladder
Žydrūnas Savickas is by far the strongest strongman ever. It's not even close.

It’s so great that this competition is here for free. Watched the whole thing and I might do it again, what a tight finish
Big z one of the best ever
100 percent
This was my first giants show I went to. Still a great show rewatching it. Forgot how close that ending was. 1 point between first and third
Holy s... Big Z like a metronome in the log press. 🤯
In hindsight this is a ridiculously good lineup. Absolutely love giants live, they do it right.

Something about Big Z intensity when it's his turn is powerful.
Big Z the GOAT of strongman best wishes with his chosen future .
Robert was a great troll
Tremendous troll, dodgy strongman 😂
@@rusty75ish agreed
poor old OB - he hd his talents! and one of them was trash talking like a champ lol
strongest of all time and the greatest
The goat
Robert Oberst playing the heel is hilarious. As a Brit, I’d like to say it’s a pleasure to be insulted by him.
Whst a man he's definitely one of the greatest strongmen ever to grace this earth ❤
I figured Oberst could get under the skin of even a scorpion but I never knew him and Eddie didn't really get along.
fake beef imo, when they are together in videos with Brian Shaw and Nick Best they seems very friendly.
Love this sport
Wasn’t this show after wsm 2017? Or was it recorded and just made it seem like it was before wsm
WSM was in May and this show was held Sept. 30. The problem is, they couldn't say anything about WSM results because they had, and STILL have, their mandatory, outdated 'wait until Christmas to air WSM on UK TV' thing. :/
it was sometime ago - but his final big Pro show on the global stage in the OPEN Category - if that makes sense
Apparently giants live doesn't appreciate the shaw classic which is a big international show with top athletes 😁😁😁
amazing BIG-Z
he was the king
greatest of all time
Great video!
Appreciate it
Lol. It's so funny that oberst called Eddie only getting 2. Then Eddie points out that's the 1 and only time he will ever beat him. And that was true.
Colin Bryce looks really odd.

That line up. I cannot say anything. 😮
Nick in the frame carry! Did he forget his age? Wow...
3.13 min bg z behind you, you are comedy man.. He is best
Well done Janashia on equalling the WR on deadlifts. He wasnt going to take no for an answer.
I'd love to be there- but the crowd seems depressed!
which year competition is it?
2017
Anybody able to understand and translate what Janashia screams before his 5th lift?
41 year old Big Z demolishing a 29 year old prime Eddie Hall on log, the greatest 👍
The Beast is goated to me
Real end of days feel to this. A lot of the guys were burnt out and looked close to the end of their careers.
Oberst in strongmen is like Scalabrine in NBA
I never really knew how much a knob Oberst was
This and the shaw classic is my favorite shows. I was at WSM in Myrtle Beach and it was a complete shit show. You could barely see the events.

No love at all for the Arnold Classic?
@@brianfox340 I have not had any love for Arnold since he said, screw your freedom. Sorry. Just my personal opinions.
Oberst on the stones dictating the placing lmao.
You invite Benni as a guest lifter one of the greatest deadlifters of all time and don't show his full reps?
Disappointed
never thought eddie hated oberst
They had fake beef for a long time, but they're good mates.
@@aeis3007 okay
Big z make new records 500kg 💪
No Stoltman Bros.
I really feel bad for Nick
Nick who?
@@anthonyproffitt5341 Best
@@CWPWWRESTLING oh ok. If I watch the video it makes sense.
Nick Best is who I think he means
Big Z is the man. Possibly GOAT. Oberst one of the worst of all time, 6’ 8” and most 6’ guys were better than him.
Yup, being in the top50 of a sport makes you the worst of all time 😁😁😁
Possible goat he is the goat and the strongest man to ever walk the 🌎
He called Big Z , "Savisskus". Do some research, Bro!
As slender as big Z isn't 😂 ( around 28 mins )
Pretty tough to watch a Russian marine compete from here in 2023. Great event overall though!
I am pretty certain that Shivliakov didn't cause the war.
Let's keep politics out of sports, the world is already fucked up enough as it is =/
@quelandil5738 I'm not blaming him personally but for me it's hard to watch a man in a Russian military hat salute after each event
@EbonAvatar I know what you mean AND I don't know your background. So I won't argue about that ;-)
@@EbonAvatarYou are just hating
@@Hhhlll7778 Yes, I do hate what the Russian military is doing to the Ukrainian people.
I dont dislike Oberst at all but he is pretty cocky for having really done nothing
👍
thanks
Giants live sucks. Shaw classic all day
For Gods sake, whats with Janashias back ? It doesnt looks healthy.

Because you know nothing about strongman
