- Hafthor Bjornsson is returning to strongman for the 2024 Arnold Strongman Classic. Here is a little reminder of how incredibly strong he was. You could argue that he was the strongest human being to ever walk this planet.

His ability to pack on size and strength is unmatched. God tier genetics.
his father could lift the thick heavy barbell easier then one of the stoltman brothers, in his 60, and pretty much skiny, he dont look like he lifting weights. yeah, thats crazy genetics.
roids
Steroids do that
@@steroidsR4losers duh...ain't no one doing any of this natural. Lol
When are the going to be PROSECUTED for their STEROIDS?
Stay natural buddy!
Thor will hit his prime next year. Hands down he is the strongest ever.
We tend to forget his incredible strength feats. those 501 deadlifts and 460 squats are out of this world. I too strongly believe that FullThor Bjornsson is the strongest man in history.
501 didnt happen it was out of competition. and there was no neutral person to verify the weight.
@@LeifPetersen1986 Seriously? There was an official judge there? Yes he was icelandic, but Magnus Ver Magnusson is very professional. If he said the lift was approved, then it is. But I will grant you this. 501 does not stand as a competition record. But to doubt that Hafthor did it at all is dead wrong.
the weight was verified by guinnes world record the had a people on sight weighing the plates.
@@LeifPetersen1986I trust Magnus more than I trust you, sorry man
And yet he couldn’t even lift the first stone 😮
2018 Thor is considered his "legendary" prime.
The guy won EVERY competition he entered that year.
Iceland's Strongest Man, Europe's Strongest Man, Worlds Strongest Man, The Arnold Classic, and a few others not mentioned 💯
He’s just the goat, he really won every competition he entered all the time lmao except for WSM
He isn’t the GOAT. He could have been if he didn’t fuck around with boxing.
@@thestrongmanhistorian yeah, hope the comeback goes crazy 🤞. There is stacked competition now honestly, it’s hard to see people like Evan singleton and company losing. Same with martins too unfortunately, is he suppose to comeback soon, do you know?
Hooper, Licis, Kieliszkowski, Bjornsson, Stoltman,,Novikov, Singleton, Thompson, Boudreault, Evans, Ziolkovski. That’s the line up for this years Arnold in march. Absolutely insane roster.
@@bigman4175 I believe he's got 2nd place 4 times now...I think
To be able to cleanly squat nearly 1000 lbs at six foot nine is unbelievable. I cannot think of another person his height that can squat as much. It is hard to put into perspective how insanely impressive this is.
Very true, nobody else has squatted this weight being 6 ft 4 or above and Hafthor is only 3 inches shy of 7 ft.
Thank you Strongman Historian for the awesome video! ❤ We all know 2018/19/20 Hafthor Julius Bjornsson was something extra extra special, but in my opinion, we will see the real Peak Hafthor in 2025/26. He will take his distinction (as you rightly mentioned in the title) to an unfathomable level. 💪🏻👑
Not sure if he can ever get to his peak strength again but that said, even at 90% he will be a menace.
@@thestrongmanhistorian He is slowly and steadily defeating the pec tear. Can't wait to see your revised opinion once he win the 2024 Rogue Invitational. 💪🏻❤
The depth on that 445kg squat was insane 😮
460kg squat
You're spot on. Hafthor is the strongest human being to ever walk this planet.
Lets be real here, if Hafþór can recover from his chest injury, it will be a fight for the 2nd place for everyone else. And I mean everyone. You put prime Brian, Zydrunas, Kaz, Pudzanowksy, Jon Pall, Geoff Capes and anyone and everyone in history in a fantasy competition, Hafþór will defeat everybody. He is the strongest human ever born and he will be back, hopefully for the Rogue. Arnold's will be his stepping stone after the long break.
He is not stronger than Brian Shaw.
@@frankcastle9877look up there max lifts
@@frankcastle9877yes he is, don't be stupid
@@killinit372 how polite! Lol
@@frankcastle9877 yeah, stupidity demands non politeness for its negation
Hafthor > Z, Brian, Eddie and everyone else. He is not only statically the strongest ever, but across all events as well. Hafthor has no weaknesses.
His grip was a weakness in some comps (look at his frame result at arnolds 2020) but he was just soooo good at everything else that he still dominated. Mateus on the other hand isn't able to make up for how far behind his deadlift is
Fangays are not to be taken seriously
Bs Big Z Smokes Thor
@@cisrael468 2020 ASC timber carry had an instrument imbalance issue. Every single athlete who went in the left lane who used the imbalanced frame had it. Go check all performances.
On the other hand, if Hafthor's grip is weak, how did he beat Brian and Martins on the 2019 WSM Deadlift static hold and win the event?
*Hafthor Julius Bjornsson has no weaknesses. All his lifts and event performances are world class.*
No its Brian, Big Z, and Eddie and Hafthor are about equal.
Thor is Awesome and definitely my favorite Strongman to follow and watch.
It may take a year or two for him to return to FullThor.
There is no doubt in my mind.
Hafthor Bjornsson is the strongest human that has ever walked the Earth.
We Egyptians built the pyramids. It took 20 to 100 thousand men 27 years! If they had 20 peak Hafthor's back in the day, it could have been completed within a couple of years! Great video man!
A nother civilisation built the pyramids
He will need another year to get into shape. This Arnolds is too early, but the next year - he will be able to win whatever he wants.
Next year, he is probably done with his strongman career, due to serious injuries. He started training again at least one year before he should, and he progresses in strength and weight much too fast. He will end up tearing his body to pieces.

Very strong ❤
KING OF DEADLIFT
He makes it look easy every time 😮
Good luck. I have been a strongman and competitive bodybuilder. Stay healthy.
Amazing strength …looks colossal….
This year is truly going to be something special in the strong man world... we are going to see the deepest most competitive lineups, with the return of Thor. Martins Licis is going to be competing, the emergence of the super Mitch Hooper, Evan Singleton's coming into his own. the two time world's strongest man. Tom stoltman is on a mission to regain his title, Olexii Novakov well hopefully return to form, after rehabbing. his elbow injury, the European champion Pavlo K. should be better than ever. apologies to the many talented, strong man that I failed to mention... I'm really looking forward to this season. It's going to be the best strongman year ever!!
MA TE USZ
The mountain is definitely one of the strongest being for sure. Thanks for the video and hey arnolds and rogue bring back the bale tote so we can see how ego hooper does lol
Man you really don't like him lol
@@thestrongmanhistorian i don't like his attitude i gave him a chance in 2022 but when i saw how he really is i stopped. and some people think he's humble wtf lol
When he was helping at OSG I could do naught but applaud him
@@thestrongmanhistorian alright he did something good there i agree with you but still that guy is not humble
@vaporcman1965 i get what you're saying, I got that same impression from him. But then I actually watched his videos and he seems mostly humble, lol Truly I'm on the fence with him, there are times he seems really fake and really full of him self..but he's kinda earned the right to be proud of himself.
He is the strongest human ever. Thor at his peak beats Big Z and Shaw and Eddie in Strongman.
He has to beat me first at my prime 😂😂😂🎉
Ur dreaming for real
That's strange, considering he had years and years of trying, and failed to beat them. Thor is one of the best strongman. But your claim is kinda dumb considering we have many strongman competitions with all of the people u mention....
@@nickcompton5981 There is nothing strange, that is because they peaked during different times. Compare 2018-20 Thor with 2016-17 Eddie, 2011-2017 Brian and 2003-2016 Zydrunas (all in their peaks). 2018-20 Thor is the strongest ever.
Thor was far from his peak during 2013-2017 when he was second all the time, when he hited his prime just forgett it, he beated everybidy, including Brian shaw who´s peak strength was at about the same time and not prior av ussually belived@@nickcompton5981
Lol, thor making larry look small. And a larry jucied to the gills.
Mateusz almost beat him at Arnold’s 2020, and I think an improved Mateusz is coming back. We’ll see how Thor stacks up against the likes of him, Tom Stoltman, Mitch Hooper, Trey Mitchell (when he heals up his Achilles), Oleksii Novikov, and Evan Singleton. A massively talented field right now. 2024 strongman, particularly ASC, WSM, Shaw Classic and Rogue will be nuts.
Nothing would make me happier than Mati winning ASC
@@thestrongmanhistorian I’ll legit happy cry when Mateusz wins a major show.
The best
And I'll be front row at asc to watch nothing like kicking the wsm out of your seats when you go to set down 😂 jk I was glad I got to talk to Tom and Luke very nice people so is Thor down to earth for sure
....after that pec tear though....and a long layoff...and many of his competitors got stronger while he was away......the Arnold is coming soon!
Big Z might have something to say about that.
The Greatest to ever do it.
Unfortunately we never saw Z do a true max squat and deadlift.
Brian too, probably had another Arnold's and WSM in him if not for his hamstring injury.
@@thestrongmanhistorian Check 2005 Lithuanian National Championships where he Squatted 425.5 in a single ply suit. During 2004 Lithuanian National Championships he did 425. He also did a 440 triple (but half squats) while training. He has also self-claimed to do a 440 double but unfortunately there's no footage of it to see to which depth he want.
In 2011 WSM he won the Deadlift with a 440 deficit Axle deadlift. His heaviest deadlift from the standard 9 inches though is 435 during training.
I’m more than familiar with what Z has done but he never trained for a true max in those. Man was squatting 400 x 5 in his Arnold preps if he trained for a max squat at lets say the Arnolds he would squat in the high 400s if he had to I had no doubt in my mind. Same with deadlift.
How can an actor be this strong 🤯
He really gets into character
Kazmier and Mariusz and shaw? But I like him da most
Samson the strongest man to ever walk the Earth, Nephelines second strongest beings and Goliath super strong than any strong man today. Today's strong men are men vs giants to these guys
Big Z?
Wonder how Ronnie Colman would of done if he entered in his prime
pretty terrible lol ronnie is a bodybuilder
Strongman is gonna peak boys! 2024/2025 is gonna be fire!
Soo Cool to see him get back to heavy training.
Peak Eddie was the strongest human ever made! (in my opinion.)
Thor was deffently better overall strongman, he has it all.
when it came to heavy ass weight Eddie had another level.
But Haftor was stronger at his peak. That cannot be argued away.
No, Pudzianowski’s not returning.
And he is not the strongest either.
Sorry, looks like you have some confusions. The strongest ever (Big Z) isn't coming back
i think his prime is over.
Strongmen peak in absolute strength in their early 30s (30-33 years old), and he is already 35.
lol, he just deadlifted a thousand pounds 9 months after the pec tear. his prime will come next year onwards.
STEROIDS does NOT count!
Stay natural buddy!
damn, let's throw all of the competitive sports out of the window then
STEROID FAKES!
Stay natural buddy!
I wish they did. I would rather see them struggle with 300kg, than like now, knowing that they are all cheaters.
Hahahahaha he couldn't carry Big Z's jock strap. Big Z is by far the strongest man in history period.
Big Z is the strongest man to ever walk the 🌎
Hi Charles, he indeed was from 2003/04 to until 2016/17 Eddie. Hafthor who then took that distinction from Eddie in 2018/19/20, as of today, is the strongest man to ever walk the 🌎. But we are about to see an even stronger man:
2025/26 Hafthor.
@@Nirsterkur reason I say Big Z is the strongest is because of his longevity of being at the top of the sport for over 15 years and Thor is close to being the strongest but I don't think he will dominate right off the bat but next year he will probably win everything
depends on how you see it. I think prime hafthor is the strongest man to ever live, but Big Z takes it in terms of consistency and longevity@@user-jt6qd8ri4l
Eddie Hall is coming back?!?! (he is the strongest human ever.)
Eddie is not even in the top 3. Yes, at his prime, he was insanely strong. But he was especially good in deadlift. And even there he is beaten. I am tired of these Eddie hooligans, that refuses to accept that Eddie isn't the be all end all of strongman sports. For goodness sake. He was one of the very best. That should be enough. Eddie and Hafthor is done with their feud. Why can't Eddie fans do the same? And all for something that happened years ago. Hafthor has changed a lot since then, and the Eddie Hooligans are the only ones to not see that.
Eddie is the 2nd strongest ever behind Hafthor.
Brian Shaw is the strongest man ever. Hell Eddie Hall is stronger than Thor.
Depends. If we see strongman as the best way to judge who is stronger, than Thor is stronger than Eddie.
I think there are maybe 5 men that are genuinely in that conversation, Zydrunas, Brian, Thor, Eddie and Kaz.
Hafthor: 501 Deadlift, 460 Squat, 250 Bench and 213 Log, and Eddie and Brian combined can't surpass Hafthor's supertotal on above 4 lifts.
and he is better with pull truck,usafell stone,bag over bar,atlas stone,elephant bar DL...AND BOXING too lol@@Nirsterkur
Strongest drug taker..not strongest
Is he stronger than the non drug takers?
Deadlifts with straps and a not very good bench
Pulled 410 kg without straps and came close to pulling 430 kg.
250 kg is really good for someone who doesn't usually bench in training with just a couple weeks of prep.
@@thestrongmanhistorian so also not very bright then who goes for the all time biggest total of all time on this much prep lol I’m not saying he ain’t a beast but his bench is not good. I get your his fan but strongest ever? Please 😂
Who is the strongest ever then in your opinion. Enlighten me.
@@thestrongmanhistorian I’m not looking for a argument so I’ll bow out by saying Big Z he won more powerlifting and strongman competitions than anyone else 👍
Zydrunas is the Greatest strongman of all time there is no debate about that. But it can be argued that Thor was stronger at his peak.
Ridiculous title. More UA-cam BS.
In every single of these static lifts, Eddie Hall is stronger (including the deadlifts)
Even a non strongman like Jesus Olivares would crush him. Pointless video
I get riding Thor but at leadt show his actual dynamic moves
Thor is a better squater and deadmofter than eddie, and infinetely better in dynamic events
your name fits...
Nah for me there is no such thing as worlds strongest man, I for one do not believe Thor's 501kg was legit though he can lift 474 for sure which is a remarkable feat as it is, he won the worlds strongest man tournament what twice but Pudzianowski won what 5? He can do remarkable things with weights but even at 6ft 9 and near 28 stones of human being he would still get absolutely obliterated in a fight versus 6ft 4 250 pound Jon Jones so is Jones the stronger man? Jones cannot lift 474kg but he could kill Thor with his fighting ability ..... so who is the STRONGEST
Well, to obliterate Hafthor without weapons, would prove to be very difficult, even for a professional fighter. Hafthor does have some amateur level knowledge of boxing, and he understands the basics of Brazilian jiujitsu. he is also very heavy and insanely strong. If he gets his hands on even an expert fighter, His strength and weight alone could mean that he won. The amount of pressure he could apply to tendons and ligaments, not to mention bones of his opponent is downright scary. But I do understand and agree with you. There is no such thing as the worlds all-round strongest man. There is many types of strength, and no one can be at the top of every one of them. About Thors 501lift, I really do think he did lift 501kg. Magnus Ver Magnusson verified the equipment. And he is very professional. But It would still not count as a competition record. But give the man his dues. Hafthor did lift 501kg even if it isn't the official record. Personally, I think he could have lifted 510 that day. It looked that easy. But that is just guesswork.
It not up to you to decided that he didnt lift 501 lmao. It was a aanctionned event by World Ultimate Strongman, sponsored by ROGUE and ESPN, verified by Guiness, and judged live by Magnus with plates bar and collars weighted live on stream.
Brian Shaw is the strongest human ever. Even ask the man who has witnessed the most strongmen compete over decades. He even said Shaw is the strongest.
But nice click bait.
Hafthor Outdeadlifted, Outsquatted, Outbenched, Outlogpressed and Outaxlepressed Brian. 😉
I do think that Brian is a better strongman overall (though still behind Big Z, who is just on another level), but it is worth noting that Brian and Thor did the same number of international competitions in their careers (65 before Thor returned). Thor won 30, Brian won 27.
Didn’t he tear his pec a couple of months ago
It was actually 8 and a half months ago. He is currently recovering and just deadlifted 420 (926) a few days ago.
