@White Wolf You must be VERY young. Here, let me reiterate what Eddie had to say to people like you : 15:34 . There is still hope that you might one day just get it.
Hearing you talk about the promise you kept to your wife and yourself really made me respect you so much more. Why in the hell would you win the race and keep running while your body started falling apart. You’re an amazing person.
Yes and in one of his newest or newest video he talks about his heart rate being over 200 not getting a BP reading cause it was so high and being blind in the middle of his vision after the 500kg deadlift. One pound heavier and he might be DEAD!
Timestamps: 0:10 Are you as strong as you were before you dieted down? - Should WSM-competitors focus more on reducing their weight? 5:10 What was the most dangerous part of your career? 9:49 What are the monthly costs for a professional strongman? 14:00 Why did you retire early?
You achieved what you set out to do, and finished a champion, I was lucky enough to see you compete in person at your prime, its really awesome that since then you are taking care of yourself , big respect
T Z Why are you being so disrespectful? All the man said was that he admires Eddie.. There is nothing wrong with that. I don’t understand why people get on UA-cam just to diss other people in the comments. Be a little nicer man..
What does that have to do with his comment..? I’m not saying that you can’t say your own opinion. I’m saying you don’t have to be rude to people for absolutely no reason. Whether or not you voted for Trump has nothing to do with it..
You’re absolutely right. You do have the freedom to say whatever you want. But that doesn’t make it ok to be disrespectful to people for no reason. I stand by my original comment. All I’m saying is try to be a little more respectful to people. Just because you have the right to do something doesn’t make it, in itself, right. Anyway, this has turned into something that I was not trying to start in the first place so I’m going to stop commenting on this. I hope you have a good evening man
@@xyzmediaandentertainment8313 i respect ur opinion no matter what and u are free there's no question about it but u need to know u have no right to talk badly on someone els i apologize for wht i said in the last comments
@@vascokiller yes he has but you realize some of brians videos aren't from this week eh you realize a lot of the videos they air are recorded well in advance and sometimes they realize a few they had stored when they travel
Casey Jones what are you talking about “can’t do shit with it” Brian Shaw and Thor have both won the athletic events loads of times. Thor won the loading race in 2018 so to say they can’t do shit with their strength is ridiculous. Eddie was absolutely right in what he said.
You`re the best, Eddie! I really think you and Brian should do a show together. I crack up every time you guys get together. Hope you are well, my friend. God bless ya.
Eddie, you are The most inspirational person in the world. From you pickin at Shaw, or if your just lifting heavy weights. You have inspired me to be a better person, father, husband, hell all around good man. I know my “two cents” isn’t really worth anything, but brother just wanted to let you know that I respect the hell out of you, everything you’ve done, and everything you are going to do in your life!!!! Keep it up man, you pulled me from a dark place in my life and showed me that there is light at the end of the tunnel when you set goals and shoot for conquering them. Anyways, thank you Eddie Hall!!!
I really respect your decision to walk away from competition and make good on your promise to your wife. That shows a lot more character than winning another title.
Brother Eddie! I've experienced, even recently, almost exactly what you described as anxiety. This feeling of my looming mortality was amplified in Sept of 2018 when we lost my father in-law very suddenly to a massive heart attack. Fast forward to today and I'm focused on simply living stronger every day. You and Brian are an incredible encouragement and motivator to this big dad. Thanks buddy. Stay strong!!!
Btw. if you guys get random chest pains just go to your doctor and get a long time ecg taken. They'll tell you if its your heart or something else. Cause many stuff goes on in your chest. 90% of the time the chest pain is not Heart related :)
You are what drives me to become bigger faster and stronger on a daily basis! I’m sure you get that a lot but you’ve completely changed me mindset to where now, I HAVE to do something better than I did yesterday...and for that I will be forever thankful! Big love!
I'm going to fess up, I wasn't a big fan of yours in your competition days. Since you retired and watching your videos and seeing you in others like Martins, I have so much respect for you and what you went through to realise you're dream! You're an awesome guy and a true honest bloke! Much love from Scotland
He is still completely dominant. His dominance is felt among the top 5. The pressure for the 501 is there. The sad part for them is, 501 won't even mean that much. 500 is the real Milestone. It will go down as the greatest feat of Strength in the History of Mankind
You're right about 501 not meaning much, everyone knows Eddie could have done more, to really make a statement someone is going to have to do 550Kg (or I guess 1200lbs would do). People are going to be watching WSM for the next 50 years looking for someone to take the next milestone.
You sir are an inspiration and follow a set of self determined rules to get you where you need to be. This is a life lesson not just for achieving a unique accolade as the worlds strongest man, but for anything in life. I have just fought of pancreatic cancer with exactly the same attitude. It's about believing in yourself no matter what you are doing!
Hats off to you Eddie. Knowing when to say when is a rare trait. I work crazy hours as well and trying to get back into it. I can't imagine your drive. Good luck!
it was an excellent Q&A ! i had a scare myself with potassium tabs the problem with raw potassium supplement is that it can be absorbed wayy too quick (compared to the natural food which have to be digested etc) it's better to dose less but trought the day and ofc not over do it ! potassium OD is a very deadly and scary shit !
Well said Eddie. Amazing story as well. You really do have an amazing story. I'm glad to see you healthy again. Live long my friend. Enjoy your family & business. I would rather watch your videos than TV. Also, your videos with your fellow strongman colleges are the best!
Eddie, I have always been a fan, but just so pleased you can talk about the mind and mind challenges you faced in the lead up to 2017. Men are so quite about these issues and it is great to hear you share your experiences.
Mate!!.. the shit you went through was insane.. YET!.. you still won and stuck to your word and you achieved it with such passion!! Massive massive inspiration mr hall... mentally physically.. you fucking done it!! True warrior.
Can tell how charismatic and nice Eddie is by the fact I can watch a 20 minute q&a with him and it feel like 2 minutes. My usual attention span with anything else is 30 seconds before I skip to the next video. Deserves a huge tv show but for now we are lucky we have him on UA-cam.
I enjoyed watching videos with you, Shaw, Best and Oberst but after watching this video all the way through I have a deep respect for you. That's not to say that I don't respect all the players in the strong man competition but it gave us a chance to understand you. Congratulations and the best to you in ALL of your endeavors.
18:33, you took the words right out of my mouth, this is exactly how I feel and probably many other people on this channel and others who look to guys like you for inspiration. Props to you for sticking with it for 10 years, as you said words are cheap.
Great video WSM! The insight into what it takes to be on top in yoir sport is, as we can see, life threatening. Lots of respect for seeing and understanding limits, but also reaching your goal. Your family has been blessed to have you💪💪
@@kylenoble9110 I agree, Martins technique is great, but lets be real hes not the strongest man in the world. If the events had been more static power based events he wouldn't have won.
I've been a huge fan of strongman all my life. I think it is so awesome to have UA-cam and be able to see them all train and learn different things for all of them. Pretty amazing they take the time to put out content. I have incorporated things from Eddie, Brian and Thor and have progressed a ton. Almost back to hitting 315 on push press. Hopefully I can eventually get to 450 on bench press as well.
Through watching your videos I have been entertained and informed. I have loads of respect for you because you knew what you needed to do to save your health and be a better man for your family, then you did it. You're a class act, i mean your mischievous as all hell, but you are a class act. God Bless and good luck with all your new endeavors.
16:00 how come the other strongmen don't think like this .. they all keep going .. shaw is 37 and still doing it .. they're risking their health of course
I think you getting involved in tv and movies is awesome you are genuinely hilarious and I think it will do a ton more for the sport than you ever could have if you just stuck to strongman keep chasing your goals you are a huge inspiration.
AJ did get battered from pillar to post by Andy Ruiz. There was always question marks wether AJ was number 1. He's no longer a HW champion. You do look a lot more healthier than when you was Worlds strongest Man.
You achieved what you set out to do. You're a smart man to know what you want and stick to it and make sure you have the time to enjoy it with your family. I am a big fan.
Eddie is a freaking monster. He's very inspiring to me, even though I focus more on "bodybuilding" I do care about strength, there's a raw element of power involving how strong you are, and as a man that's crucial to me and my self esteem, as well as my ability to defend myself in case of an emergency or an attack. Eddie is a solid mass of muscle, it motivates me a lot, struggling to beat depression. I always watch these videos for extra motivation.
The thing is, all the guys that everybody is saying will beat Eddie's 500, are still below 475. They really are. Everybody. Jerry couldn't do a lift recently, it was i think maybe 465? Benni too can't cross 475. Thor couldn't do the 500 lift on an Elephant bar. Thor will most probably do the 500 on an Elephant bar, people will start considering it as the 500 broken. The real 500 IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN ANYTIME SOON.
I would actually consider 500kg on the elephant bar to be more impressive than standard. If you look at Eddie, he never even got close to 500kg on the elephant bar (I think he only got 1015lbs on the elephant bar, even at his peak), but he was able to hit this on a standard bar.
I really could just listen to you Talk all day Eddie, such an intelligent guy and brings his stories to life through emotion. My fav Strongman for sure
@Eddie 'The Beast' Hall Great vid man. Being grounded in reality (with dreams and goals) and recognizing what's most important in life (the wife and kids) is paramount. Brings true happiness. Guy Ritchie needs you in film. That's a no brainer. The future is bright brotha!
Thanks Eddie. You made the right choice! Achieved that massive goal, on to the next! Risked a lot to get there... great ambassador for the sport! Best of everything to you and your family 💪🏼✊🏼✌🏼
Even though you've answered the retirement question several times before, I enjoy hearing your answer. It's a great story, and has a lot of life lessons built-in.
Eddie I'm so happy that you were smart enough to retire and get healthy when you did. The symptoms that you were describing were eerily similar to the symptoms of the stroke that I had. I'm so glad that you're okay!
Retirement was absolutely a good decision, you’re a smart man Eddie
for his health yes ^^
+Tommy Canaparo I couldn´t agree more, it was a wise and mature decision!
He has 0 to prove #LEGEND
@White Wolf You must be VERY young. Here, let me reiterate what Eddie had to say to people like you : 15:34 . There is still hope that you might one day just get it.
He wanted to be world's strongest man since he was young.he's been world's strongest man now he has retired :)
Brian would have been late to the funeral.
Carcaine 🤣🤣🤣
@@polymindgames Brian would do this bare handed and would be surprised to see Eddie already posed 😂
Carcaine 😂
I think even Eddie would laugh at this 😂
🤣😂😄😅😆😁👍
Eddie Hall the type of guy to get his own TV show in America just so he can annoy Brian Shaw.
Exoskeleton Bug Millennium
they call him a mad man
without actually having to be there*
Him and Shaw are bros lol that shit talk is for entertainment
I like how brian has to medeate eddie and roberts workout sessions so they don't tear the gym up.😂😂😂😂😂😂
👍🤣🤣🤣
I want to see Eddie on the Joe Rogan podcast!
Suj.97 yes
He's been on the true Geordie podcast if you want to give that a watch but yeah, Joe Rogan podcast would be amazing
Yeah buddy!
I want to see him on the SteveO podcast
Agreed
Hearing you talk about the promise you kept to your wife and yourself really made me respect you so much more. Why in the hell would you win the race and keep running while your body started falling apart.

Brian actually did retire before Eddie he's just being late
why hasnt his more likes ^^
Eddie "Upgrade me to first class or I fart" Hall
Haaahaahahh
Eddie would be "foucking ....😂 "
Would you say that to his face,matey,i think not.
@@leetherockjohnson5376 I honestly think Eddie would agree I would say it to his face
@@leetherockjohnson5376 Sure I would. Because Eddie can take a joke - doesn't sound like you can though?
"The moment I thought I was gonna die" after you hit brian in the face with the medicine ball......
Eddie saw his life flashing before his eyes when he threw it..
haha.
I laughed waaaay too hard at this
Timestamps:
0:10 Are you as strong as you were before you dieted down? - Should WSM-competitors focus more on reducing their weight?

True, and I don’t think anyone could argue otherwise.
I Believe He is the Strongest Man in History. Big Z is the Strongest anyone ever stayed. But Eddie is the Strongest anyone ever got.
I agreee whole heartedly
@@aejae15030 You talking bout Zadrunas Savickas??!!
its called "worlds strongest man" but this years was less strength and more strength+mobility
People should read the actual definition of Strength. Also, what's the point of having strength if you can't do shit with it?
Casey Jones what are you talking about “can’t do shit with it” Brian Shaw and Thor have both won the athletic events loads of times. Thor won the loading race in 2018 so to say they can’t do shit with their strength is ridiculous. Eddie was absolutely right in what he said.
Who won the overhead press this year?
So World's most mobile man?
strength + speed = power so World's Most Powerful Man lol
You`re the best, Eddie! I really think you and Brian should do a show together. I crack up every time you guys get together. Hope you are well, my friend. God bless ya.
Strongest Man in history, on the history channel, mate
Unorthodox that show is kinda funny, but very censored not that good
@@lolzmcfree6996 yeah ok you're right
Go on brian shaws youtube channel him and eddie are good buddys they always hang out together getting up to shenanigans you can thank me later
A road trip would be funny.

1:27 Nice of Eddie to tell us how he's moving the train by leaning forward!
I really respect your decision to walk away from competition and make good on your promise to your wife. That shows a lot more character than winning another title.

Eddie may be brash and crude but you've got to commend his drive and work ethic.
I also admire his brashness and crudeness
I actually thought hes quite pleasant.
Shit. Those death scares are terrifying. Glad you are alright
I applaud you sir, you're doing life on your terms! Continued blessings Mr Hall and thank you for sharing your experiences. I am definitely a fan.
Thanks for this video Eddie, i have already enjoyed watching your antics but all I can feel now is respect....good on you.
He is still completely dominant. His dominance is felt among the top 5. The pressure for the 501 is there. The sad part for them is, 501 won't even mean that much. 500 is the real Milestone. It will go down as the greatest feat of Strength in the History of Mankind

1200lbs..
600kg...
Yes they will be higher than 500.
But they're 1200 and 600. They're not really 500. 500 is the epitome of human strength.
@@everychannel1025 it will happen in 8 years

YUP! We want to see the world strongest man being a time keeper for Brian Shaw and your cherubim signature pose.
You sir are an inspiration and follow a set of self determined rules to get you where you need to be.
This is a life lesson not just for achieving a unique accolade as the worlds strongest man, but for anything in life.
I have just fought of pancreatic cancer with exactly the same attitude.
It's about believing in yourself no matter what you are doing!
You're an inspiration man! Keep pushing forward towards your goals. Respect.
Really good questions and very much enjoyed the answers.
Seems that everybody who's asking why you retired doesnt really understand what you been through to get the Title.
Love how smart this man is, guy can be a juice head one minute and a cool calm collective vlogger the next. Wish you the best BEAST!!!!
Hats off to you Eddie. Knowing when to say when is a rare trait. I work crazy hours as well and trying to get back into it. I can't imagine your drive. Good luck!
it was an excellent Q&A !
i had a scare myself with potassium tabs
the problem with raw potassium supplement is that it can be absorbed wayy too quick (compared to the natural food which have to be digested etc)
it's better to dose less but trought the day and ofc not over do it !
potassium OD is a very deadly and scary shit !
Strongest man not quickest man. Totally agree
Well said Eddie. Amazing story as well. You really do have an amazing story. I'm glad to see you healthy again.
Live long my friend. Enjoy your family & business. I would rather watch your videos than TV.
Also, your videos with your fellow strongman colleges are the best!
Your very inspiring Eddie. Thank you. Spend time with your family, I'm sure you know that's where true happiness lies. Your a good man.
I want to see the top strongmen challenge the top sumos.
Eddie and Brian should do a podcast.

thanks for putting what you do in strong man into perspective, your inspiration into setting goals, working hard and never giving up 🤙💪
Eddie and Brian are the best.
The two reasons why I love wsm
I prefer Brian because he's humble about his strength
How is the bicep? Luckily I have never had that type of injury, but have know plenty that have.
I enjoyed watching videos with you, Shaw, Best and Oberst but after watching this video all the way through I have a deep respect for you. That's not to say that I don't respect all the players in the strong man competition but it gave us a chance to understand you. Congratulations and the best to you in ALL of your endeavors.
Man of your word. You’re a good man and an excellent example of a role model. Family first, you’re the man!!!!
i sat in the same wagon i heard the story live. it was exiting to hear. still saw it another time here :)
The strongest man in history deserves more than 139k subs👊🏼
Sam Ashton No worries, Brian Shaw has almost 1 million, not 139k.
Well that escalated quickly- almost 800k subs 7 months later - the UK has a fifth of the population of the US - Eddie doin alright
18:33, you took the words right out of my mouth, this is exactly how I feel and probably many other people on this channel and others who look to guys like you for inspiration. Props to you for sticking with it for 10 years, as you said words are cheap.
Refreshing to here someone put their family above themselves! You’re a good man Eddie!

You've got a lot of wisdom Eddie, thank you for sharing
16:42 I'm guessing this was filmed before Joshua vs Ruiz....
He should have bowed out after beating Povetkin
He did say he's back in the UK from July so think it was before the Ruiz fight mate
@@bluenose4903 yep noticed that too
Must have been, because he said you have to be big to win WSM and then Licis goes and wins it at 350 lbs
Licis got lucky though it wasn't a legit win he can't honestly tell himself he can beat a healthy Thor and Shaw
WSM 2019 was more like CrossFit games rather than strongman...
How? You clearly don't know anything about the sport.

I've been a huge fan of strongman all my life. I think it is so awesome to have UA-cam and be able to see them all train and learn different things for all of them. Pretty amazing they take the time to put out content. I have incorporated things from Eddie, Brian and Thor and have progressed a ton. Almost back to hitting 315 on push press. Hopefully I can eventually get to 450 on bench press as well.
I admire your honesty and willingness to share your personal trials as well as triumphs.
at first i thought the title was “the moment i thought i was going to diet” 😂
I was doing shockwave 3 times a week at £50 a go, so that's another £100 a week. Only messing, love the videos. Eddie you legend
I noticed it too 😂
Funny as he said that i saw your comment.
Good luck to you Brother. Glad you went out on top with great health. You're a great man.
Through watching your videos I have been entertained and informed. I have loads of respect for you because you knew what you needed to do to save your health and be a better man for your family, then you did it.

16:00 how come the other strongmen don't think like this .. they all keep going .. shaw is 37 and still doing it .. they're risking their health of course
So you’re shifting your goals to the film industry? Are we gonna see you as the next avenger anytime soon?
Yh that would be great but I would like to see him as the next avengers villain coz of his size
I think you getting involved in tv and movies is awesome you are genuinely hilarious and I think it will do a ton more for the sport than you ever could have if you just stuck to strongman keep chasing your goals you are a huge inspiration.
So many gems in this that you can apply to anything else in life, walking legend.
Joe Rogan needs to have Eddie on the podcast
Brian Shaw and Eddie Hall podcast, it would be the worlds strongest podcast.
Imagine if the guy on the doorbell knew he was talking to one of the strongest men in the world xD
Carlos Matos Fanpage he was distracted by the “wife in the shower” comment 😂
@16:39 "You gotta learn when to walk away from things." I have great admiration on your profound understanding of humility, Mr. Hall. Best wishes!
I respect your choice Eddie! Keep doing you man. I watched your documentary years ago.. been a fan since! BIG LOVE
7:02 im sorry but that made me laugh, i know i shouldnt tho 😢🤣🤣😂

Was this recorded before AJ got knocked out by Andy Ruiz?
Yeah

The real 500 IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN ANYTIME SOON.
I would actually consider 500kg on the elephant bar to be more impressive than standard. If you look at Eddie, he never even got close to 500kg on the elephant bar (I think he only got 1015lbs on the elephant bar, even at his peak), but he was able to hit this on a standard bar.
Simon Dean and he also had to prepare for months for it and got brain damage from the lift
I really could just listen to you
Talk all day Eddie, such an intelligent guy and brings his stories to life through emotion. My fav Strongman for sure
Eddie you are a legend. Wish you and your family all the best.
Eddie, love you mate, but... through the safety of the internet.... agilic isn't a word. It's just agile ;)
"The wifes in the shower"
Elecy man "PHWAOORR i'm in there"
I am glad you are healthier. Your family needs you.
@Eddie 'The Beast' Hall Great vid man. Being grounded in reality (with dreams and goals) and recognizing what's most important in life (the wife and kids) is paramount. Brings true happiness. Guy Ritchie needs you in film. That's a no brainer. The future is bright brotha!
Not hating.. love Eddie... But couldn't help noticing he didn't mention how much he spent on the "gear".
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤪
would respect them more if they told you what they took and at what dosages
They arnt aloud to use any steroids.
After the heart scare you still went onto compete? Jaysis. Glad you got the WSM in the end chief.
Thanks Eddie. You made the right choice! Achieved that massive goal, on to the next! Risked a lot to get there... great ambassador for the sport! Best of everything to you and your family 💪🏼✊🏼✌🏼
Even though you've answered the retirement question several times before, I enjoy hearing your answer. It's a great story, and has a lot of life lessons built-in.
Mariusz Pudzianowski competed 3 times in arnold classic and didnt make top 3 once. Would say arnold's is better pure raw strength competition
That AJ analogy, has not aged well lol
Eddie I'm so happy that you were smart enough to retire and get healthy when you did. The symptoms that you were describing were eerily similar to the symptoms of the stroke that I had. I'm so glad that you're okay!
I have so much respect for you for reaching that goal and refocusing on life!
