- NEW & EXCLUSIVE look at the unstoppable RISE of Strongman EDDIE "The Beast" HALL.
Filmmaker Andrew B Quinn analyses the extraordinary career of the British WORLD'S STRONGEST MAN Winner in Part 1 of the series. The BEAST shot to fame with his annihilation of the Deadlift World Record in 2016. However, it was a long road that Eddie travelled to achieve his goal of winning the WSM title. One in which he transformed his body and the Sport of Strongman - both growing to never seen before proportions.
The series includes a look at the famous 500kg World Record in Deadlift - the HALF-TONNE lift! It left Eddie battered, bruised & bleeding, but proved to himself and the World at large that he had the X-factor in Strength. When you mix in the body charm of a man fighting against his natural rebellious nature, you end up with a cocktail of pure, raw entertainment that was appreciated not only by the hardcore strength fans but his charisma also propelled him into the public eye.
This Documentary portrays all aspects of his extraordinary character from the beginning of Eddie's Strongman career - right up to his World Record of 500kg/1102lb Deadlift in 2016 - with UNSEEN - behind the scenes - FOOTAGE leading up to that famous night and never-seen-before archive from his early career.

Eddie Hall - is he the most influential strongman in living memory?
Well each generation had some great ones, however this one is blessed with many. What Big Z, Brain, Eddie and Halfthor has done for the sport is tremendous.
no - 1 wsm - and a good spindoctor that have made it look like he have 10 - not even close ( more a showman ) and thats ok to memory is key
He's definitely not the greatest strongman, but there could be an argument there for one of the most inspirational yes. After all he did something most didnt think possible with lifting half a ton, also made other lifts look ridiculously easy like his axle press and nearly killed himself to win wsm. If that's not influential what is. Imo in terms of the best strongman era you just cant ignore Big Z, Thor, Shaw and Hall. They're all incredible strongmen.
No he's not brian and big z's career is much more impressive than him.
@@amankhalsa5436 influence isn't always direct on success both Eddie and Halfthor are famous and bring people to strongman that wouldn't have been fans otherwise. Brian and Big Z represents the pinnacle and most successfull in the sport and their influence will be different . It's a tough question as you can't measure it.
Thor's 501 was great but Eddie's 500 is the greatest. I get goosebumps everytime i see Eddie's 500
The difference is eddie was the first to do 500, even if people do more now, eddie was the first to beat the myth.
Eddie is the first human in recorded history to ever lift 500kg increasing the past wr from 465kg to 500 which is insane
Eddie gave way in giving confidence to strongmen that it IS possible. That's legendary.
@@bassinblue Eddie brought charisma back in strong man. It has been missing for a while.
Me too.
This guy deserved the name “The Beast”
He also deserved to be hydrated
@@johnnyskeleton1556 a man can dream
What about Brock Lesnar
@@wwebro2510 just shut up lol
Sounded so young .. And off-cycle :D
His voice when he was at Budapest. He sounded so young.
Timestamp? Im lazy
8:32
hes not old at all. In his 30's
he was 25
It's just high-pitched. Not talking from his stomach. That's all.
I get goosebumps everytime I see the confidence in his face after he pulled the 500.
So much respect for this man
As much respect as I have for Eddie, I think we all know him holding that 500kg for as long as he did almost became what caused the world to watch Eddie Hall die in the same breath he pulled that 500kg with. Even Eddie himself said he made a mistake holding it for that long because of the damage it done to him and almost became his ultimate downfall.
jjnjjjnjnjnnjjj
Please make more of these! Brian Shaw, Kaz, Pudz, Thor, Jon Pall, Magnus!
We intend to.
And Nick Best and Oberst
@@GiantsLiveSTRONGMAN Hyped for it!
@@George.GG1 Oberst hasn't done much besides American log and being friends with Brian
Yes yes yes ❤️
This man’s physical presence is absolutely stunning. I’m a former competitive gymnast who weighs 101 lbs at 5’1”. I understand commitment to achieving a virtually unachievable goal. Now, I’m older and on my 4th back surgery, 3rd shoulder surgery, 2nd elbow surgery. I now have titanium hardware in my neck and lower back.
His ability to overcome pain is unimaginable to me. I’ve only very recently discovered who he is and I cannot get enough. His commitment melts this lady’s brain. I have nothing but mad respect for him and what he’s achieved. Amazing...just amazing.
Mad respect for gymnasts, youre all bloody ninjas
Richard S-C - Thank you however, I’ve paid an extreme price for my commitment to the sport. My orthopedic surgeons all insist I’ll continue to pay for the remainder of my life. BUT, I sure had a helluva a LOT of fun through those years.
My ability to put a singular goal in my head is what’s gotten me through the surgeries and the recoveries... the recovery process following spinal fusion can be slow and astronomically painful (for me, anyway).
Sorry to hear that and I'm not trying to be a troll but I think not getting surgery is the way to go. My doctors told me I need at least 3 different ones from my neck to my lumbar from injuries I obtained in the army and I refused them. I took myself off the pain meds 6 months ago as well and I'm back to deadlifting heavy weight again. Shit I thought I'd never be able to do again. My army buddy got back surgery and has a permanent weight restriction and is in more pain now than before his surgerys. And that's the consensus from everyone I've talked to that's gotten back surgery. I'm still in massive amounts of pain but the stronger my back gets the better I can deal with it.
@@EddieHallslittlebrother wait until you get older bud.
@@sieunhau1 Dakota is right stop trolling
Laurence Shahlaei good sportsmanship when Eddie beat him.
Loz is such a nice person,
Yeah Thor needs to take some notes from him
@@maddierose7020 was about to mention that, cheer!
He's just a fantastic human being, all around.
1:18 When Arnold is watching you, legend tells anyone can lift 37.4% more than the previous personal record.
If you wonder what are the two letters on his chest, it's the Chinese character (力) meaning strength/ power
ye, its also the logo for strength shop
Cheers m8 .always wondered about that
Even though I've seen it many times, I still get emotional every time I see Eddie pull the 500kg. There's something about witnessing people doing extraordinary things which reminds me of how amazing, powerful and beautiful the human race is. From time to time I need that reminder.
Christ rose from the dead, glory to GOD for His Creations. Amen!
@@mygiftmatters Respect to this Jesus guy for managing to convince billions of people that he is the son of god
Brian’s look on eddies short 😂
Eddie is a 6.3 ft toddler. So funny
Lmao true, but he's amazingly strong I'd like to meet this friendly Giant.
6.3 is tall
@Quim Rodellas arnold was never 6"2 at any stage of his life
@Quim Rodellas there are plenty websites that cover it
Arnold still looks tall next to Lou Ferrigno so I don’t know
To go from first learning about the sport to becoming the strongest human in the world and one of the strongest in history in 7 years is just legendary... no matter how you cut it. His work ethic and drive is unparalleled.
Eddie is responsible for getting me into strongman training. He's influential to me even if he isn't to others.
Good for you man! 👍
How often do you train? How long sessions? I read that strongmen train each muscle group once per week because the muscles get worked alot
Same reason I got into it. I set a goal of competing in a strongman event by the time I'm 30, a little over seven years left to do it.
Look up the commentator Bill Kazmaier. That guy was the GOAT for many years. His RAW powerlifiting total of 2425 was not beaten until 2020. He set the record in 1981. Of all the old strongmen, only Paul Anderson and Bill Kazmaier could compete in the Arnold Classic and have a chance to win today.
Might have gotten disqualified all those years if he had been hydrated.
I'll never forget watching him pull 500. One of the most powerful moments and amazing atmospheres the world will ever see.
World strongest pig
@@mexicanwarrior4931 I bet you’d love to taste his bacon.
A 6'3 400 lb pig that can deadlift 1100 pounds and shoulder press 476 pounds. Oh and he's won swimming titles and has lightning fast hands in the boxing ring
@Paul Vu I'll respect it more if he does it away from his own gym in front of a huge crowd after waiting for a dozen other lifters to sweat all over the same bar and platform he's using
@Paul Vu I too can lift 501 kg in my basement, competition is another thing.
Man, all these people with their original hydration humor.
That's the yank kids for you. Always ruining the comment section.
Hydration is key
At 12:20 when Laurence held Eddie's hand in the air and declared him the champ, that was the finest sportsmanship I have ever seen in life. Had me emotional and motivates me to keep getting stronger
Hats off to him, truly! Could have easily chosen to walk away and did not. Fair play!
eddie's more humble than thor.. love him so much.. sorry for my bad english..
that's clearly a very biased opinion, they are both amazing people.
@@Jooffee Thor is not an amazing person he is a snake
@@matthewbooth5923 and a wifebeater
At the time when Eddie did 500 and the axel press.. there was no question that that was the strogest man alive.
His static strength was something else.
He looks dehydrated. Someone get this man some cranberry juice.
Cracking intro. Hollywood should have asked him to play Bane 😜
No
Eddie is such a motivator. We worked so hard to get to where he is now.
Ive seen the 500 so many times and still get hella goosebumps when i see it its insane
If you did Brian Shaw, it would be 3 hours long
Movies will be made, stories will be told, words will be said, and I was here to see it, you made History! Eddie The Beast.
When Bane goes to bed, he checks for Eddie under his bed.
😂
The look on Brian's face at 2:05 priceless
Thankyou for putting this together, reliving those memories, amazing! Forgot how much size he put on!
Our pleasure!
@@GiantsLiveSTRONGMAN seriously great job, I work in PR and Marketing, I can only hope to be involved in something as inspirational as this. You are making people stronger, I can only strive for more than the bottom line 👌
Eddie Hall - You are the most inspiring person I have ever seen 💪🏽
Amazing videography, you can see the effort put in, love it man
19.16 “look how pumped up you are!” Gotta love Arnie. Always makes me laugh that bit. If he was cheering you on you’d get a PB.
i watch this guy b4 i go to sleep so i get my mind set rdy for next day to come. God bless buddy.
this needs to go viral ! i follow eddie for a while now but the last bit was absolutly breath taking. Like for sure!
Thanks a bunch for this one. What a great video of a great man!
Eddie Hall IS the greatest deadlifter of ALL time. I've seen the lift maybe 50 times but it still brings a tear to my eye. The lift is FUCKING M A D
Eddie had the 230 kg log, that snapped ankle really got him.
This might be the best youtube-video i've seen for a couple of months now! Thank you guys!!
Thank you for saying that Dennis. We are hoping to produce a few more similar doco style videos in the coming months.
Great video, can't wait for part 2
This man is an athlete beyond compar,lm almost 80 years old taken part in all sports and believe in his dedication.He is a true BEAST of a man and my hero.
If strongman was popular in the 80s and 90s cazmier would be the most influential
It was very popular back then too.
It was popular when I was a kid in the seventies and eighties, Geoff Capes was a house hold name. His rivalry with Jón Páll Sigmarsson was televised on TV and millions watched. I’ve no idea why think it wasn’t popular back then.
@@punkoid76 thank you for informing me it’s just I don’t hear The name Caz often besides my house so I didn’t think strongman was as popular so thank you for informing on this
The raw emotional energy from the 500kg lift is so powerful it makes me motivated and teary eyed every time I see it !
Bro this video was such an amazing short documentary to watch!
Big love from India. A big fans of Eddie Hall
Best Warhammer Fantasy Dwarf Slayer Cosplay I ever seen !
Best Doc Ive seen about Eddie, nice one .
What a awesome video. Many Thanks. I ope you do the same foromat for other strength athletes. That would be such a cool series.BigUps!
Eddie is amazing! He is such a great guy even when his W.R wasn’t allowed that he deserved to get the Deadlift world record! The Beast will always be The Best!!
That intro though... 🔥 🔥 🔥
This was a fantastic video... thank you for putting all the work into this and putting it together! The production was top notch.
As others have said, would love to see this caliber of video put out for the other top names... we all know the list.
Nice work ... can't be said enough.
We intend to cover all the big names in the coming months. Thanks for the support
@@GiantsLiveSTRONGMAN luke and Tom stoltman?
Thanks for making this he is among the toughest strongest man to walk this earth
I'm not the biggest Eddie fan, but to be at a very high level in deadlift and then add 100 kg in 5 years is pretty amazing.
Cracking video, a must for all Eddie fans, I hope this gets onto Eddie's page so it reaches all his followers. Would be great to see more unseen footage like this. Big thanks to official strongman for all the great content. The Thor video was awesome as well.
Thank you for the support. It’s highly appreciated.
Realy nice video, thanks made
Great documentary,what a champion he was,the ultimate competitor,and worlds strongest man and deadlift world record,he’ll always have that
amazing video havent even watched it. only watched the begining.
edit: watched it and it is 10000% worth your time. i loved it!
So you can't know if it's an amazing video then? The last half could be loads of Irish farming footage for all you know
Edit: wow, second half is actually Irish farming footage
@@benarmstrong6904 well the start was good.
Nice word from Eddie not wanted to chase my dream in grave yard wanted to live my dream when I am alieve Edd your progress made me to be a strong man thanks you Eddie
Fantastic video! I love it
Thank you for the video!!! Really good one to watch!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Yeah, Thor pulled 501 kg staying in his own comfort zone and broke the record 👌. But, the excitement and the rush can never be compared to the moment when Eddie Hall pulled that 500 kg (first ever 500 in history) in front of the huge audition in an event, it set a milestone in the history of strongmen that will go on to be remembered. Even his 462 kg deadlift record in front of Arnold was really an alpha moment itself.
Records are broken sooner or later and is a good motivational point for the one trying to get there.. I´m pretty sure Eddie would have stayed in strongman some more months and go for 505 if he knew Haftor was going to beat his record later xD
@@marcusnorberg8498 to be fair eddie seems to be the more constant of the two on dead lifts in public events compared to haftor from what ive noticed which does seem odd
@@AcidJurassicThats not true at all. Thor reached his deadlift prime later in his career thats all. Thor placed 1st in every deadlift he did from 2018 to 2020 mate, if thats not consistency what is. Also breaking three records in that time. Elephant bar ASC in 2018 and 2019. Giants live 350kg axle record for reps and WUS silver dollar.
Whatch the the difference between thors reaction to eddies after they both did the weight it nearly killed eddy Thor just looked normal
Eddie's 500 is the greatest. I get goosebumps everytime i see Eddie's 500
What an Inspiring Video...... There is no borders in this world... the only border is the mind...... !!!
Documentary well done. Eddie deserves the recognition.
8:30 is it just me or did his voice get much lower through the years?
I good bit yes, but he also has a voice that just changes on the daily. I am the same, some days I sound like Batman, and others I sound like Robin. Quite annoying.
its called ROIDS
@@vttrpersonal7329 yeah same for me man. It also depends on who I’m talking to.
Wow, what a good movie! Thank You for putting it together like this! For me Eddie is a big inspiration and I try my best to be a beast in the gym, and a good husband outside, like he is. Thank's to the whole England, the mother of civilization, what would we be without You! //Mikael Johansson
Thank you for the feedback Mikael. We enjoyed making it and Part 2 is also in the works.
What a great guy. Not only is he a Legend for being a strongman, but he's genuinely a nice person. what an inspiration.
Nice work 👍 Eddie has made sport bigger
This vid is legendary
Thanks very much for saying that - it has taken a lot of sweat and work to put together. Really pleased fans of the sport want to see this kind of thing. We certainly enjoy making them.
So happy when this notification popped up
Great documentary 🙌🏽
eddie is def my fav strong man, best personality and mentality
I reckon Eddie could have had a better compilation if he was hydrated
When you put all your points in Strength, Endurance, Wisdom, and Charisma.
Amazing performance and what a fantastic video thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
Awesome! Eddie is inspirational AF!
31:35 Legendary 👏🏽👏🏽
The fact that he is known as a THE BEAST and he has a scar on his left side of his face that goes through this eyebrow and eye is badass
the way he got it is not badass at all, check on the internet
@@J.c410 THATS WHAT CAME UP (When asked by the Daily Star Sunday why he had a big scar across his left eye Eddie, 25, bragged: “I got slashed a few years back in a nasty fight. I was about 19 and had just started Strong Man training. “I'm a bit of a racist, to be honest. It was a gang of Asians.)
@@ronaldinho10pro97 yep
Love how he changed straps for deadlift to prevent him dropping it in future, it's those little details that made him an absolute champion
Very good documentary the beast is an Epic story
8:54 in the background "do you like armwrestling??"
A part of me died when Eddie stopped competing. What a guy. An inspiration. Unmatched
What a legend!!!!
Goose pumps 🙏🏼💯
That ending definitely brought a tear in my eye
"worlds smallest pair of shorts" ..... Look on Brians face LOL
This is like the strongman version of Rocky👏👏💪
Loved this!! Well done Andrew B Quinn 👏🏻
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great Video
You can see the size difference from the 500kg to wsm
I wish they paid attention to other strongmen in the same way. Without bias or favourism.
They aren’t as willing to talk to cameras. If they were, they would do vids on them too.
The guy who put this video together is working on vids for Brian Shaw and Bill Kazmier.
Awesome content buddy 👏🏽
Thank you 🙌
Great film, fantastic watch! :)
I liked when he he got on the podium to receive his trophy and he was the same height as Thor standing on the ground lol
It's kind of pathetic that this series hasn't done a positive video about Thor.
Eddie Hall is a British national treasure! Right up there with their queen lol?.? Thor deserves so much better on the internet but unfortunately it is full of British trolls that beat him down to prop up their immature/annoying champ Eddie.
@@oilconsultant9138 Most of the reason Thor never gets a fair treatment on this channel is because he dared to publicly say that one WSM event was unfairly judged. They've been doing every little thing possible since then to tarnish or erase his massive legacy.
The reason you don’t see as many videos of Thor is because he has the charisma of a brick. He’s an amazing strongman, but personality gets attention.
@@beardedbjorn5520 I don't agree tbh mate. Lot of laughs and good times in his videos with Martins and the Stoltmans, also Thor has a great personality if you watch his twitch.
There wasn’t nearly enough ads in this vid
Great interesting documentary,
Glad you think so!
Enjoyed this video and its always Good to learn the truth....
he is definately on my top 40 list, strongman of recent times
The thumbnail is close enough to look like brock lesnar
I thought it was Brock at first I was confused
Imagine Lesnar as a strongman
He's far bigger in terms of muscle mass than Brock Lesnar you idiots 😂 and no steds.
Eddie is so much stronger than Lesnar lmfao
Seeing this now after seeing Maximus spotting for Eddie is so awesome he already knew his sons name. Maximus is going to be a legend
This video was absolutely awesome. What a great story. I wonder if you’re going to make a new one now that they have the boxing match scheduled? I’m sure they will be a rematch to because in any big boxing match there’s always a rematch clause in the contract
