4:51- I can’t look at a sad Brian Shaw, he is so beloved and respected by everyone in the strongman world. It’s like seeing your dad cry for the first time.
I teared up. You said it perfectly.
why is he cryng?
@@robertorodriguez749 spent a lot of time and effort preparing for the event and just didn’t do as well as he had hoped would be my guess.
@@cumbeldore420 If I remember correctly, he tore his hamstring on the deadlift event. He looked like he was in a ton of pain by the end, so that may have contributed. The big man still lifted every atlas stone on that torn hamstring though. Mad respect.
@@Burbleslol well that makes sense. And yeah he’s a legend I love him
Lets be honest here! If Thor had been given that 15th lift, Eddie would have done 16... It's quite simple, he would have won either way!" No doubt.
Exactly. Eddie didn't do a 16th rep because:
1- Why waste energy for nothing?
2- He could have gotten injured
Yeah why will anyone do more reps when he already won. A winner is a winner even if its by 1 rep and Eddie looked like he had 2 more reps in him.
@@RamanSingh-zr7pk exactly his last rep was definitely not as far as he could go he 100% had more in him
Couldn't agree more, eddie at that time in my opinion was the strongest person ever, he was on another level to everyone else
No double dipping was agreed before the events so hard cheese Iceland 😂
"And I did it easy" - Eddie Hall (almost fucking died during that Lift) - You absolute Beast haha :D
Yeah he doesn’t half chat some sh*t sometimes 🤣
@@Barnzy213 I think he could've lifted more but holding it for as long as he did at the top was a very bad move.
we all know eddie gonna have every excuse in the book when thor beats his ass.
@@Teddy-se8qb Do we?
Thought same thing 😂 respect all the same first man to ever do it
i LOVE the inclusion of Brian. People forget how vital he was to the 2017 WSM standing.
Seeing these old clips of Eddie shows just how impressive his body and health transformation has been the last few years . He is like a new man now! Still a beast but much healthier and fitter!
Yeah but people say this all the time as if he quit eating junk food and sitting on the couch or something. Strongmen get like that because they're chasing a dream, and putting your body through that is a direct consequence / requirement to fulfill that dream. Yes, he is still a beast but it's not like he can do what he did when he was 200 kg, it can't be treated as "some obese guy who finally lost weight", it's just that he accomplished what he was after and he no longer had a reason to endure being that heavy. There is a big difference.
also thor! he looks like a greek god rn
HB looks way better too, those dudes absolutely pushed their bodies to the limits with training, nutrition, and PEDs for years to win WSM and break the 500kg deadlift barrier
@@entertainmenttrainingcomed6810 what do you mean? Thor looks ill now
@@user-jx2fg3bk9w I’ll? His face muscles pretty much restored and he walks around at a healthy 13-15% body fat. Is able to go on walks runs and jump rope now.
It’s crazy to think Brian should have like 8WSM titles but then so should big z. They both lost to one another in such close circumstances. I don’t think we will ever see two of the best ever going at it again like Brian and big z did.
Brian really did get robbed in 2010. Not only did he win the atlas stones, he also dominated the bag carry but got robbed by corrupt judging
Big fight next year, Brian V Z. The world's nicest guys!
@@Bearded360ahah not sure. Z is getting old and may not be fot enough for the moving events. Still a static monster.
What's crazy is Brian admitted he basically competed with one hand in 2012 and he was 4th that year. With a good hand who knows what he could have done. I personally think he won in 2010 over Big Z.
We might get something with Mateusz, Tom, and Martins
Ironically, their hatred towards each other, causing them to fight in the ring is actually making them fitter and in turn, probably lengthening their lives. Fate works in strange ways.
I'm so happy so see that Eddie and Hafthor both reach these hights but even happier to see them being more healthy and being able to have a life with family and friends
Ahhh a fellow LP soldier. They do make good music for workouts especially anything off THP
Height*
I'm also glad they retired! They'd both be dead of exploded hearts at 40 if they didn't.
If this video has shown me anything… it’s that I want Brian to get that 5th Title! And be crowned as a the greatest WSM winner of all time!
Couldn’t agree more, also Eddie saying he beat Brian mentally yet Brian still came in 3rd and beat Eddie at practically every other show they did
Z would still be a more decorated strongman
If Brian gets the 5th title i will cry for sure. I have so much respect for the man. A living legend and a good human being, class act.
@vimal gayan Jon pall was not even that strong tho, without rigged events he would’ve only won 3 WSM’s and he was beat by Geoff Capes and should’ve lost to OD
@vimal gayan I mean if he’s not the strongest then why does he have so much wsm title
This was really well put together - thoroughly enjoyed this… as fans and spectators we often forget the sacrifices that are made to compete at the top level in strongman. Wish Thor and Eddie the both the best in their future endeavours.
It’s sad seeing these guys come up together and support each other like brothers in the Europes strongest man 2017 and now having to fight each other in the ring 5 years later. Hope they both hug it out and leave all the bad blood behind after the fight💪🏼
U realize they're getting paid a shit ton right...? They could still be friends and doing it for each other. I'd fight my absolute best friend for a couple million for the both of us lol
They both boxing so they both could get paid millions I'd say they are supporting each other to the fullest
Oh no not at all Eddie is doing it to fight Thor for that bullshit he pulled. Eddie's a fighter to the core
@@possibility28able Nah, controversy sells waaaay better.
This was absolutely incredible. Showing the struggle you guys all go through at such a high level really drives it home that you give it your all. Major respect for everyone. I can't wait for the next episode.
Heart wrenching literally watching the footage of Eddie waiting for his scan results, really shows how much it meant to him. Even had me welling up. So glad you reached your dreams Eddie and now we get to see you live a healthier life. We love you man 👍🏼
Thors a strong mong, Brians a monster, Eddies the beast, after all said and done they all have done more than what they ever thought they would. Respect to all at the end of the day
😂😂 he’s not a Ming he had Bell’s palsy I think
Context adds so much more meaning. It's impressive winning worlds strongest man with heart problems casting a shadow in your mind. The level of commitment is amazing.
It's shame they fell out so hard.
They're such a joy to watch together being sportingly
Without a doubt, watching back Eddie's event performances at WSM 2017, he was on an absolute mission that year!
His headgame was absolute and self-evident, regardless of how many reps he was up against.
Eddie knew at that moment in the clinic. His one chance is his last chance. So just gave it every last drop and got to the title.
ya i bet you know all about his headgame
@@Eric-hi5py Easy now darling! ;)
His what
His “head game” 🤨
Eddie's last attempt to try to get inside Thor's head....! 😄
lmao has nothing to do with that. that's Thors tactic and yours. the truth is out there and is all that matters. Thor is ungentlemanly and cannot accept he lost and makes false claims to act victim LMAO go ahead. defend him.
Eddie is living rent free in Thor's head already.
@@1Life2Little you mean thor is in eddies head
Seeing bryan cry was like seeing your dad cry for the firs time... broke my heart man...
It's actually nuts how much work it takes to compete at something like this, and to win it is even another step beyond. For someone to call you a cheat, that must have boiled your blood, I know it would me.
"Thor did actually shake my hand and I forgive him for pointing out Colins fu
“So we’ll instead meet in the ring, embrace and slow dance”
@@wickywills "Chin to Chin"
This will actually be funny. Imagine they both say they sorted it out and it was a misunderstanding and now they will just do a dance battle
"Yeah we'll go 6 rounds - 6 rounds of man on man action"
@@finestjellybeansrawlol9486 I didn’t need that image..
Teared at the part when Eddie was outside the Dr's office, hard to see such a dedicated person risking his life and dream. Inspiring champ! 👍💪
Hope these guys truly do put their differences aside and find the respect each other deserve because they truly are the epitome of strength and willpower
This was well put together. Looking forward to parts 2 & 3!
I understand how serious this video is but I couldn’t help but laugh at the part where he had to turn sideways to fit into his conservatory 😂
The one thing Eddie has is that he’s willing to leave it ALL on the line, the man pushes himself harder than anyone which is why I think he’ll win the fight 🥊
exactly...it feels like everytime someone wins the event, it looks like there is still something in the tank left, but with Eddie...he truly goes all in, there is nothing left after his attempts.
thats exactly the reason why eddie only managed to win 1 wsm title and that too when certain events were changed last minute to favour him .he hasn't even won half of what thor has won.of course he will always have a lot left in tank considering most of what he has hasn't been used anyways
He is, i just hope he isnt doing more than he can handle. In the end this is an ego battle, i just hope they both dont take it to far.
If he dosent cancel it again
@@albinlarsson582 No sane person would carry on with the fight when they've had a bicep detachment.
Watching the start of this video it was amazing to see how you both inspired each other to keep pushing and to keep being better... I hope the beef can be squashed you guys are brothers at a level... hopefully you see that...
Mate, felt emotional for you in this, hoping you’d be able to compete. Absolute legend 👊❤️
It just saddens me that Hafthor and Eddie used to think so highly of one another and seemed liked genuine friends, to what things are like between them just now. I'm confident Eddie will come out on top in the boxing match bur I just hope no matter what happens they can bury the hatchet. Hate is a toxic emotion.
Agreed mate, the lads are absolute beasts they know more than anyone else what they had to put themselves through to get where they are. You think that would bond them once their personal competition ends.
I want Eddie to win but I have to say Thor has actually gotten pretty darn good
It’s just all because thor couldn’t handle loosing to Eddie
@@tonylyons2414 And eddie is still to this day 4 years later relatively bitching and whining about it. Like let it go, Hafthor has beyond moved on.
You sure about that? Thor is really training to be a boxer whilst it seems Eddie although training isnt really "into it" as much as Hafthor. Idk I feel like Eddie is stronger but I think Thor with better technique will prevail.
What an incredible production.
Even though I know how it ends, I can't wait to watch the rest of the series
I just want to say thank you for releasing this and can't wait for more. Good luck in the fight i will be watching from Stoke. You have made me realize i need to sort my life and weight out before it's too late.
This is great that they show the struggles you guys go through and also emotionally and physically
I hope this fight lets you two put this all behind you. You share a struggle that few people on earth can comprehend.
Great episode, looking forward for the next! You got nothing more to prove Eddie, you are a great human being and earned the respect of the respectful. Take care of your health and family, and do some great collabs with other gentle beasts like Brian Shaw and Luke Stoltman. 🙌🍻
Hey Eddie. This breaks my heart watching you struggle. I really love seeing you be human. Keep going keep fighting
Thanks for this documentary, it's so well put together and compelling it's making me care about and for guys I hadn't really heard of before today.
This is one of the best motivational clips I ever watched in my entire life.. The work ethic and the dedication is on another level.. I wish I can get that work ethic as eddie hall.. Huge respect.. Learning a lot of things from you sir
Amazing documentary so far Andrew B Quinn and thank you Eddie for sharing the truth. I’m really looking forward to the next part 👏🏻
Glad you enjoyed it Emma 💪
Can't wait for ep 2! This is reminding me what an incredible year that was for the comp
They are both champions. The most motivational clip i have seen in a while. Gave me goosebumbs..
The production value on this video is amazing! Cant wait for the Fight! Lets go Eddie!
Loz and Liz break the 2017 wsm down and show that the squat was the actual winning factor not Viking press. Thor lost several points in the event.
Yep, agreed. I’d be curious to see how many more reps Thor could have done if he’d not torn his quad 4 weeks out from the show. Really fucked up his preparation
Could u please link the video I can’t seem to find it.
@@joshbrooker5819 He just didn't wear a squat suit which could have given him maybe 2 reps (I don't know how a suit work but it makes it easier from the bottom).
@@e.c.9468 a suit is a tool he didn't wear it because he felt it could hinder his performance. It's not an improvement guarantee
Yeah if Thor did 1 more rep on the squat he would’ve won the competition by a couple points. He still performed amazingly for having a quad tear
Amazing work bro thank for the great video whoever made it
It's great to see how far you've come Eddie. You've really grabbed ahold of those opportunities to improve your and your families future.
i F*CKEN LOVE THIS!!! you truly are a absolute legend mate to the beast seeing what you put yourself through made me realize many things about my life and to not stop i want to be the first Australian in my family to compete one day and i'm not gonna give up thanks to you
It saddens me to see what was such a beautiful friendly brotherly rivalry turn so bitter. I hope that one day they can reconcile with each other and we can witness their magical dynamic again
This 2017 competition was stacked.. I don't think it will ever hit as good as this one. The stories and all the emotions from all the competitors. How amazing.
Very well put together! Huge props to the production team and to you too Eddie. :)
The saddest part about all this is that Thor and Eddie seemed on decent terms prior to the 2017 WSM. You can see Eddie's win and special moment was tainted by Thor being a diva and the fuss he kicked up, for which he was totally in the wrong. That was when the relationship soured and since then both have behaved pretty miserably towards eachother at times. Blame for the original incident lies entirely with Thor but both have been asses at times since, probably more so Eddie.
This is probably the only balanced comment on the situation. Totally agree
Naaaah you don't know shit about what goes behind the strongmen scenes .
We only know what is shown to us.
I agree with you 100% both have been assholes to one another since and were nothing of the sort prior to WSM 2017. But if you were Eddie Hall, if you had just won something that mattered more to you than anything else, you'd set out on this 10 year journey to pursue it, through all the ups and downs, injuries and setbacks and you finally win in one of THE most competitive WSM shows of all time, and then some man child cry baby goes and taints it by saying you cheated, or the event was rigged, it just soured that total experience for a man that's literally dedicated half of his life to this profession, not to mention his health. Eddie has to live with that for rest of his life now, he'll look back smiling at his achievement and then suddenly be hit by the memory of bad sportsmanship for a competitor. I'd be fuming.
Gotta admit, at this point, this does seem pretty childish. "This guy disrespected me, so I'm going to spend hours training ever day for years to beat him up."
@@MrBevoRules thor called eddie out, not the other way around. Forget what they agreed on behind the scenes
Wether you're an Eddie fan or a Thor fan i think we can all agree that Brian Shaw is a all around great person who is always a good sport!
This is well done man just wanna keep watching but gotta wait for episode 2
What a episode Big man, what you can do with your body is superhuman respect
No one will read this but i gotta say some things . Man i rarely say something on any platform , but it shows what an inspiration all these guys are , and especially Eddie. Everyone has a favorite , and someone has a least favorite , but you gotta admire them all in the end. Inspirational as fuck , makes me wanna sleep at the gym and be there 24/7 . Good luck Eddie in the incoming fight , all the best , hope you will win.
I read it! 👍
I scrolled down the comments and yours was the first one I read all the way to the end. Well done
Go eddie
He lost
You know Eddie, you're alot of great things, but you've got one hell of a BIG Heart. Thank you for everything youve done and continue to. Well fucking done.
This is really well done, excited to see the rest
This was beautiful RESPECT to the both of them.💯👍🏽
Compare Eddie losing to Thor to how Thor lost to Eddie. Tells you all you need to know really.
*Eddie was mocking Thor before any of this happened whilst pretending to be his friend.* The “yes” man shit did get in Eddie’s head because it’s all he ever talked about. Being from a small country, what’s wrong with your friends and family coming along to support you...
Nah it’s weird. It doesn’t matter how big or small your country is, you’re the only one lifting. Why does he need 20 guys telling him he’s great?
It’s crazy to think we walk the same planet as Eddie, you are a seriously a specimen of a human being I watched your Netflix show some time ago and I was inspired to be the best version of my self . Every time I’m feeling depressed low or lazy I just remind myself what other people have gone through to get to where they are now . all the shit you went through to get to where you are is incredible . hard work and constantly training etc especially the part were you was fixing the big HGV lorries till stupid O clock then straight into the gym now I’m watching this , great content as always I don’t normally write comments but I had to get this off my chest. Can’t wait to watch the fight may the best man win.
Superb documentary and thank you for buying the rights and putting it on your channel. Can’t wait for the second part!!!! 👊
One of the biggest inspirations in life. Eddie will be known for centuries to come, the passion, the resilience, the power and the love he has it’s what makes him The Beast
🤣🤣🤣
Ur acting like just died. Damn swear y’all need to chill
@@JB-pp1kt do you even lift bro
🤡🤡🤡
@@PM-lw9ip If you thought that was funny, you'd probably die laughing knowing that thor beat his past girlfriends and likely his current one, absolutely hysterical!
17:41 so beautifully said. Willing to put his loved ones first over his WSM career if he didn’t pass his heart test, speaks volumes of Eddies character, big love 💙
I think that prompted his retirement thou it wasn't all good news, that chest pain during Europe's looked bad and I've been there and you think about your kids wife life suddenly and you say please God give me a little longer please I wanna see my son again I promise are stop this now it's really tough
That's not commendable, that's what he's supposed to do
If you put your dreams above your children having a father than something is seriously wrong
@@getstrongby4038 yeah I mean if becoming a father doesn't change you, but also for eddy being divided so close to his dream of being world's strongest man I think around these years we are seeing the human limit
Excited for the next parts. Very well produced.
Top quality content thank you
Man I don't really care at this point. I just want both men to fight it out it's been too long.
true, dragged on enough
facts.. just get this over with and squash the beef man
The next excuse will be the sparring partner, I feel. “Big red” or whatever. He started mentioning him a lot. Probably he’ll “get injured” during the sparring session.
Yh
@@dikaosoune sorry nothing to save Thor this time, he's getting knocked out
This is crazy, I remember watching this on the TV at the time, crazy to see how you've gone from this unit of a man and become the absolute beast you are today. The time has come Eddie, to finally get closure. Kick his ass on the 19th.
I like you both for different reasons, I hope and I know the fight is gonna be legendary and treated with the respect you both deserve
This was heartbreaking to watch. You are an absolute beast!
I remember watching the event live and thought how crazy of an event it was. Learning now of all the medical issues Eddie was having makes it even more impressive. I think what I took away from watching this video is even in defeat Eddie Hall was nothing but a gentleman and was humble . Celebrating Thors win ripping his shirt off and being happy for him. To see the world strongest man results and how that respect wasn’t shown back I can see how hurt Eddie was. Then when you add everything else that’s going on I can see why there’s bad blood.
the saddest part of it all is, the fight wont solve this. if Eddie wins, people wont just suddenly turn on Thor and demand he come clean and apologize for the "Cloud" he put over Eddies win. and if Thor wins, its not like he will be awarded the 2017 WSM title. just two ex-friends getting in a ring to punch each other over one being a sore loser, and one being a sore winner
Well they are both gonna make a shit ton of money from this so I don’t think they care lmao
Thanks for the re upload!
Beautiful video , strongest man or not, i just love the guy you are, simple humble respectful funny a great father and an amazing competitor and your channel speaks for itself , i don't post a lot of comments but i always enjoy your videos . Now just take care of your health coz your family and fan's need you for longtime more (sorry for my english) thank you The Beast ;)
1:34. This was supposed to be the first event in WSM 2017 - obviously not a strong event for Eddie. Colin Bryce removed the chain pull at the last minute, so it was only a tire flip instead of chain pull + tire flip. If the chain pull had remained, Eddie would have placed low on this event, costing him his 1 point lead he ultimately beat Thor with in WSM 2017. That is mainly why Thor was saying it was rigged, because of the last minute changing of events to benefit Eddie.
I heard something about them changing the atlas stone pedestal heights too
Reframing the whole thing around the Viking Press was smart of Eddie, as it seems there are more controversies regarding that WSM.
This, WSM2017 was rigged. End of.
Colin Bryce talked about that a few times. He said the surface wasn't consistent for the chain drag. If it was in the comp Eddie might have placed lower, but there's nothing to say Thor wouldn't have been lower too
@@dlgonser Why would the Director of the event not take the surface into consideration before setting it up there? It's a convenient excuse. Colin is a smart man, as well as a great entertainer, and I don't believe the event was just blindly setup without taking the surface into consideration. He's ran strongman events for many years, and he knows better. The stars were suspiciously aligned for Eddie. He was 100% the strongest man in static events for sure, but as an overall strongman, that is debatable.
They certainly have some excellent promotion for the fight and know how to build hype. I can't wait for this
hey Eddie nobody has ever been more dedicated than u so great job and god bless you
Respectfully done. Big props to a real man like Eddie.
Even seeing Eddie train on a daily basis and seeing the monster he became up close, it frightens me seeing him. Beast by name, Beast by nature. I think it'll be a long time before we see anyone that isn't as naturally gifted / doesn't have the archetype strong man body win it. Edd threw everything at it which is why the fight will be no different.
This was awesome 👌 bring on part 2
This video made me very emotional. I don’t think you can dislike either of them after this.
Great to see this side of Eddie, it's rarely seen. He is human and it goes to show how far he really did push himself and his family. Amazing turn around when you compare his figure now, no doubt he puts the effort in!
Eddie would have won regardless of that Thor's 1 rep counting or not. Thor did get 2-3 warnings and officials still gave him 3 reps with bad form instead of not counting them but with 4th warning they took away his 1 rep and he was okay with it until he got to know that 1 rep decided the winner. If you look at Eddie he did exactly how much he needed to win and he 100% had 2 more reps in him because that last rep didn't took too much struggle. Eddie won fair but thor blaming Eddie for his loss and called Eddie a cheat. Eddie's reps were perfect with no warning where thor got 3-4 warning is enough for anyone to tell who was strongest man in that year. I know Eddie gonna win but still some people think that Eddie is stupid and as soon as he will see thor in the ring he will charge him with anger and suddenly forget all the training,gameplan,strategy. I mean are you guys serious.
Thank you
exaxtly. if Thor was supposed to win why didn’t he win the deadlifts? why didn’t he get 1 more rep the overhead? bc Eddie was stronger fair and square.
@@anthonygrande8762 yes
Thors a big baby and he’s looking stressed out and 20 years older right now
I agree with most what you said, however: Thor made his complaints towards the referee: Colin Bryce, not Hall. The only reason Hall has a problem with this is because it endangered his chances of winning. They finished with only a point difference. I absolutely believe that Hall was the strongest presser, squater and deadlifter that year. However, my problems with WSM are the absurd conflict of interest: Bryce being both the head referee and the organiser. Bryce being there when Eddie his book got published the same year as he won WSM, ie: they are both friends AS WELL as business partners. I mean, are you shitting me? How is this even remotely allowed? No wonder evil tongues are claiming the events were changed in Hall's favour: WSM2017 had the most static events compared to others years. Dynamic events aren't Hall's strongsuit (look at the results). There are some serious polictical issues underneath the surface in the history of WSM and this Thor/Eddie debacle is just one of them. How about Giants Live, guess again Bryce is the producer of Giants Live too, not acknowledging Thor his WR deadlift using the same argument as Eddie: 'it wasn't done in a competition'. However, they let Iron Biby break the WR on the axle without competition.. So.. it no longer matters? O right, it's because the entire organisation is shady and corrupt.
Awesome can't wait for the next part.
Great Vid Eddie & crew - Inspirational as always !!!
When I see tears in Brian and Thors eyes. It truly is an inspiration, really shows how much hard work and dedication can get you, they wanted it bad. It wasn’t in the books for them that year. I still think Shaw will get his 5th title. I know he can.
Unfortunately for Brian, the new crop of young Strongmen are too much. They have more endurance, flexibility, drive and motivation. I’ve seen Shaw be smart and bow out before getting hurt, but these new kids won’t do that. They’ll hurt themselves to become the best and that’s Brian’s downfall.
@@abasiczombie. thats a bad choice tactically, strongman is an endurance contest, you risk your body in any event except the very last one and you can wind up eliminated and unable to compete the next year, its a huge gamble to engage in, knowing how hard you should push and risk your body, and it costs alot of money to mitigate any of that with extensive health checks and tests.
You just have to see how Eddie acted when he lost Europe’s total sportsmanship towards his counterparts. Look how he is with Brian Shaw. it’s a respect thing… regardless if Thor was robbed or not Eddie did not rob him. He Should have shown class and congratulated the winner. Must admit I’m a big Eddie fan due to his big heart. Good luck for the fight
Most of the times Thor is. Don’t let one bad moment ruin everything.
@@Mathis218337 its all it takes
Come on dude, not cool. That enlarged heart almost got him killed... Not cool smh my head
@@Mathis218337 It stopped being 'one bad moment' when he doubled down on it for years.
@@Mathis218337 One bad moment doesn't last for 5 years and counting.....
I remember watching wsm live in 2017 as if it was yesterday... I cant believe how long ago that was already.
Time really does fly when you get older.
Loving the videos mate 👍
Fighting through heart problems & that too at such an elite level is something absolutely unimaginable!! Even minor heart health issues freak people out(rightly so) that they put an immediate stop to their activities, but Eddie & all the fellow strongmen pushing through; gains even more respect for the athletes!!!💪
I had heart palpitations for some of 2019, most of 2020 and some of 2021 if I remember correctly, and they always happened when I was doing nothing.
The first few heart palpitations left me feeling breathless and I thought I was having a heart attack in my mid-30s, however the rest weren't as bad.
I also had annoying pains in the back of my hands a lot too, with veins clearly being blocked multiple times a week.
Then out of nowhere the heart palpitations and hand pains stopped.
I'd estimate it's been roughly a year with no vascular pains...
However I have pains of a different sort.
They stopped shortly before I finally got to see some specialists at the hospital for the psoriasis all over my body, and pains in practically every joint in my body, a couple of which seem permanent.
The specialist confirmed what I've known for years, that I have arthritis.
My psoriasis has practically all gone after roughly 5 weeks of UV light therapy which finished last Monday, and roughly 6 months of taking folic acid and methotrexate pills which I'm still taking for my joints.
However my left shoulder still has the permanent pain I've had in it for roughly 2-3 years whenever I lift my arm above shoulder height, and my right achilles tendon has had a pain in it for roughly 6-7 months whenever I attempt to run or stretch it.
I’ve supported Eddie ever since I found love in strongman. I can’t wait for the other episodes but next Saturday 19th I hope Eddie wins and he can truly settle this. Goof luck Eddie 💪🏼
I enjoyed seeing these two be nice to each other
Unreal can't wait for part 2
That was a great first episode, I appreciate the honesty and being real.👍👍
Yes, Eddie isn't a bias source of information on this subject. LOL
It should leave no stone unturned and give a clear picture as to what happened, mainly those who are just hearing about the fight. Nice, nice
a clear picture of what it is in eddie's dreams, yes
I love both of you guys.. sending love, prayer, and support!
A father, husband, brother, mentor.... No matter what... You are a human being with one heck of of a big heart and kindness I have seen very few humans have!!! Respect Eddie!!!! Respect!!!!!
This was insanely good, can’t wait for the other parts
Eddie's not afraid of Thor. He's been training like a mad man.
You're sooo close to hitting 2 mil man, keep it up
Great job on the story/video. Remember, the only people you are stronger than are those competing against you.
Brings a tear to my eye, fucking amazing. The dedication, the power, sends chills down my spine. Go Eddie
