ESPN this is a documentary that is a few years old. You took it at the end of the previous GOT series and you release it at the start of their newest season when people are looking up GOT
That's why they also put "...became 'The Mountain' on Game of Thrones" in the title even though the video has nothing to do with it
"we didn't have a jack, so i just lifted the car"
Hafthor have a condition called Bell's Palsy, if you were woundering why he twitches and only moves on one side of his face.
His grandfather speaks perfect english, mother and father don't speak a lick of it. Wonder how that happened.
In the recent Larry Wheels and Jujimufu videos, we saw that Thor's dad Bjorn does indeed speak English but maybe he doesn't feel confident in it.
Don't care. He is an absolute cunt of a human being. He thinks he is God. He only won the strongman because Eddie Hall retired and Brain Shaw injured himself.
@@Audard Yet you cared enough to comment your hatred for him on something random someone else noticed about his family..... Okay....
@@Audard Say that to his face pussy
@@Audard no, he has beaten eddie hall in europes man many times and placed ahead of shaw when he wasnt injured too. I like them all though
I don’t see how they can post this after ‘calling him out’ for steroid use
theleovl yes they called him out for use of steroids, but he announced it 2-4 years ago
theleovl they need the revenue
Lol, they should call out the whole nfl and part of the nba
Lifting weights Magnus Ver Magnusson walks over to you. Wow honour. Two Powerhouses!
terrible journalism and clickbait
Basketball players always dominate in other sports.
Hafthor is a former basketball player
So is Brian Shaw
So is Deontay Wilder
"Breaking news! Athletically gifted people are more often successful in sports than non-gifted people!"
Deontay Wilder is a almost forgotten
Bro Deontay is no more in the fight scene.
phil heath the bodybuilder also started in basketball
So, he is basically the strongest professional basketball player ever? And the strongest man in 2018?
Huge respect for this man.
honestly he had all the tools to play center in the nba, i wish he ain’t have to deal with those injuries though.
He is the Strongest Man to have ever lived.
@@Nirsterkur
Bill Kazmaier was my candidate. I was banned from competing because he was too dominant.
@@franchise5527he’s 6’9 he’s be a sf most likely
Nice to see that the face is starting to recover. Good luck at WSM in June! Love from Russia
What is he recovering from?
Questão _ bell’s palsy
This title is a clickbait , interview was made on 2017
The NBA needs this guy
Bruh imagine how proud it is to birth a beast of a man like thor.
ESPN 'exposes' Thor as a steroid user.... couple days later presenting his success story. 😂
PS he did use steroids as did the guy who finished 2nd, 3rd, 11th, 23rd, guys who placed 1st at national level, the guys who didnt qualify for WSM, the guys who won in their state, local strongmen who didnt go to state, guys who did not win local meets, etcetera.... when every athlete uses PEDs it's not cheating in a non-tested sport. If someone uses and competes in drug tested competition only then is he/she a cheater.
exactly just a clickbait....
joe lecuyer they test strongmen for drugs. But drugs are allowed. It’s for heath reasons
I can't wait to see your scenes in the new Game of Thrones series!.
Brings new meaning to power foward
He’s so dope
Imagine getting absolutely floored by you son at basketball
thor is the definition of a big man
Thank you Thor for inspiring me to grow stronger every day.
Don't look up to him. He is a bad sportsman.
@@Audard Why cause of that ESPEN interview? I'll look up to whoever I want, thanks.
We see how FAKE these STEROID users REALLY are when they finally can't take their STEROIDS because they got ARRESTED/in PRISON or the doctors tell them to come off because of health PROBLEMS...there goes those FAKE STEROID muscles they been HIDING behind!
ROIDERS are FAKES!
Stay natural buddy!
More please
misleading title! no explanation how he became the mountain
I am the worlds strongest PS4 controller slammer but i get no recognition.. 😐 i slam my controller so hard that my neighbor hops his fence to say "Hey can you keep it down buddy?" but whatever.
Lmao this comment got me 😂 Congratulations.
I've twisted more than a few in half lol! One time I got so pissed at Madden, I took the console, controllers about 20 games and the couch I was sitting on threw in a pile in the back yard and set them on 🔥. I have since then gained control of my temper. 😁👍🏻
This documentary just blew my mind like Oberyn's
where is the full E60 interview?
Where can I Watch the full movie?
Big giant with an even bigger heart
*enhanced heart
I like to pick things up and put them down
Is there any documentary on this guy?
He talks like Popeye 💪🏻 since he only talks on the side like him and I find that badass💯
This video is only 3min long?
There has to be more right?
This dude is huge
Hafthor!!!!
Waiting for Clegane bowl...
I wouldn't wanna defend him in the post. Omfg
I want to see brian shaw guard him since they both played basketball and they're about the same height
Still I bet he could pick up a ball and dominate at the y today
Ver Bal Thor is taller than Brian
I don’t wanna fight him lol
Imagine taking a charge from this guy
I dont care what anybody says! ESPN wants attention but I believe in order to be the best you have to be willing to do whatever it takes! Thore is leaving his mark as one of the strongest men ever to set foot in this planet!! Thore we are behind you!
0:36 So what could I do but paint by mustache blue
If this dude wants to back you down your choices are as follows: get backed down or get backed down
Good guys Martins Licis tom boyden and jujimufu tom and luke stoltman loves Thors friendship hes a good guy.
They don't show or tell how Sandor was pushed into the fire by Gregor
I wish I could be him for a day wow
Stop wishing that you could be him.. You make yourself become what you want to be
3:00 he sounded like Arnold here
Bells palsy usually goes away on its own , but thors had it for a long time now.
old interview , it is much better now, this is from 2 years ago
He needs a good acupuncturist to help him with the Bell's Palsy before his nerves endings are gone, the sooner the better. I had the same thing, my doctor kept on giving vitamin B shots and even vitamin B IV and facial exercises, months of treatment and nothing, it was not until I went to an Acupuncturist before got better. The Acupuncturist said if I went to him later it will take much longer to heal. Don't wait go now.
Had this a year ago too but only lasted 3 weeks without any treatment. Had some pain inside my left ear so probably some infection was the cause. The most annoying thing was that everything tasted salty no matter what I was eating so I was unable to eat anything couple of times (was like putting pure salt into my mouth). Drinking was a hard challenge too with one sided paralysis of my lips.
@@sacrifer7499 I hope you are better now, my doctor said stress plays a factor in Bell's Palsy. Nowadays I try not to stress myself over things I have no control over. Be well, best of luck to you.
Zion be working out with him
SheLovesChris look up Larry wheels
Clickbait Title. Disliked. This has nothing to do with how he became a part of the Game of Thrones cast. Nowhere was it mentioned who he got in contact with, or who came across him, in order to be casted into GoT.
The mountain would dominate the NBA like he does strongman
I wish this was longer and more in depth! _ I know, that's what she said.. 😁
MrUnderdog1970 ! Or he said 🤔
@@swagkelly5867 lmao! God, I hope not! 🤣😂
Can someone put the link of the video they say he does steroids
How many strokes has he had?
None
not a stroke, bell's palsy.
His sister looks like Gwyneth Paltrow
Hafthor looks like he's his dad's dad.
Bell’s palsy
How the World's Strongest Man Hafthor Bjornsson became ‘The Mountain’ on Game of Thrones | E:60
it did tell us how he got the role, watch the video.
I'm here because of Camp Knut
Has nothing to do with the title of the video
Is it just me or does the strongest man in the world only blink with his left eye
ricky Carpenter bell’s palsy, he has almost fully recovered from it now.
its always the young farm kids.... bjornsson, matt hughes, clark kent....
This man should try the NBA. Even shaq in his prime whould get bodied out of the arena
he would probably be way to slow for the nba
What happened to his lip?
We finally found his weakness! Just gotta get in and out with the blinks. No bullshit though, don’t stress it AlmostThor, you are legit the worlds strongest man, a successful actor, and seem to have a good sense of humor. Maybe practice keeping our hands to ourself a little more.
Shame on you ESPN for this low kick....
He athletic for 400 pounds
A 400+ man can dunk. Let that sink in.
Imagine Shaq vs THor Bjornsson ! omg ....
Those viking genes sure did him good xD
Viking males were 5 feet, 8 inches tall on average, His genes are in his family line.
Why is right eye and lip weird
I think he had a stroke or some kind of seizure because his mouth is bent towards left side..
Umer Zaffar its called bells palsy
@@soumtihassan3200 thanks for the reply. I'm not a doc.
Yeah the dude is strong a fuck. But noone gonna address the part that all the huffing of amonia has resulted is several strokes. Half hus face done work
Guess who's doing Pushups and Chinups
If he's half a thor I'd hate to see a full thor😂😂
he can probably play stallone in a movie!
Staline IS 5'6 lol
The worlds strongest man is married to a waitress. lol things have changed
hey, love is love.
What is this supposed to mean?
A hot waitress*
who cares about her job. it's all about the pussy.
@@mv1991 You are very rare and unusual with such a strange and otherworldly belief as that.
Why does the Mountain have Stroke Face?
I was just about to ask that. I hope he's well and healthy
www.menshealth.com/trending-news/a19545244/the-mountain-hafthor-julius-bjoernsson-bells-palsy/
Lol even the mountain had a goofy long hair phase
How much did he weigh at birth? Poor mother.
25 kg's.
St st st steroooiiddsssss. Let's not act like the size is just from pushups and loving basketball
No, it's from dedicating his adult life to a sport in becoming the best in the world.
People can be naive! Of course it's steroids/hgh/test. Regular gym guys take it just to look good, of course this guy, whose livelihood depends on his size, takes it. He's lost so much of his hair at a young age too, probably from taking too much steriods
@@grottphd9090 😂yeah, you keep believing that he doesn't take steriods. You must be a kid.
@@samimotaghedi Are you a kid? I didn't say he didn't take them.
no one is deying his steroid use,
he publicly came out and admitted to steroid use, guess what? no one gives a shit.
steroids are part of strongman, gotta be willing to make some sacrifices to become the strongest motherfucker on the planet
This "news" is old. ESPN waited for GoT's season 8 premier to go live with this thing. In essence, ESPN is using a PED story to enhance the performance of their increasingly irrelevant brand... pathetic.
At least he admits taking gear, they don’t test for it in the strongman more like the samples get thrown in the bin so the sport actually sells to the naieve
whos after 5001kg
What happened to his face
ivan navi He should thank Qyburn for being alive at all. Don’t nitpick.
John Marston amen!
John Marston wat?
He has Bell's palsy. Not sure when he got it, but it will take some time to recover
Bell's palsy
Does everybody really believe he never used steroids?cause I do not.
Silke Jakobi nobody believes that, like this comment section is full of people saying he has and they don’t care so where you got that idea from, I don’t know. All the guys in strongman at the top level take them, who cares!? They couldn’t lift the weights they do without them, simple as that, let them be
@@JoKacX So you also support if he used that he is cheating and dying early like so many others?
Cheating!? EVERY TOP STRONGMAN IS TAKING STEROIDS! Who are you to tell these guys they can’t take steroids? It’s their life, it doesn’t affect you in any way
I lost my partner because he was doing steroids.He had a Heart attack at the age of 28 maybe that is why I care.But thta is just me.Of course everybody can do with their life what ever they want JoKacX.It is the ppl being left behind which will suffer.
I understand that and I’m sorry to hear that. People like Thor have coaches and doctors who make sure they take the stuff safely though. I’m sorry to hear about your partner but a problem with just so called “regular” people taking them is they don’t fully understand their limits and what’s especially dangerous and what isn’t.
What happened at his mouth?
Are we all just gonna ignore the proof at 0:40 that Hitler isn’t dead?
It's not even the same mustache.
It’s a shame that ESPN is a joke now
Modern day viking
Serious question. Physically speaking how on earth does he not kill his wife during sex? Like how does she survive?
tobes1010 You are sick....
She doesn’t he has a new one every day.
Serious answer. Honestly speaking that's none of your goddamn business. Have a nice day. :-D
fucking viking ofcourse he is strong..
Did he have Spelling on this... Bells paulsy
Granddad speaks english parents dont?
Stick to your social justice sports stories that killed your network stay off HalfTHOR
Second
First
He became the "world's strongest man" because the organization wanted him to. They changed the competition for him and removed the lifts he isn't good at.
Brian Shaw is stronger overall.
Turd Ferguson I like both Shaw and Thors but I agree. Shaw is the stronger, overall, of the two
you guys don't know anything about strongman, that's a retarded comment
you guys don'tknow anything about strongman, that statement is so wrong
@@meginna8354 no, I think it's you who knows nothing. Just look at the world's strongest man competition and look how it's changed over the last 3 years. They changed almost all the events and lifts. 3 years ago Thor was always 4th and 3rd, now he's winning.
They changed the events because they want the famous guy to win so they get more publicity.
@@turdferguson2839 Turd Ferguson why do people like you pretend to know what they're talking about when they don't?. You found Shaw's channel and that's about the only thing you know about strongman, the events the past 3 years have all been typical.
Thor is winning now because he's better, he was always statically weaker than Shaw but the improvement these past years has been insane, not a single knowledgeble strongman comentator would say that Brian is stronger than Thor. Try to justify your statement.
That EPO steroid I think gave him a stroke
Eva Ray Herrera Bell’s palsy is not a stroke and it’s cause is largely unknown
Vegan gains made a video about him.
Bush league ESPN
What's wrong with his face? strokes
Bell's palsy
I had that whem i was a kid did he really have that cause i jus askes that on here
