Because he’s an amazing human in general. He’s insanely strong and performed like no one other, but he’s very humble and friendly and just a good human, he encourages everyone to do his best, and even is pushing his competitors for a good fight. Everyone loves him because he is who he is.
Mooooose! Wow it has been a pleasure watching you this year. All the strong men participants deserve a round of applause and more money for their hard work!
@@BackwardsJohnsCreations meant like as in he cant grow a full beard, but honestly he has an iconic look and isnt like all of these other copy pasted bearded strongmen
Will the current crop catch the frontrunner or will it be strength athletes who aren’t in the sport yet who begin to operate at this level. I think the latter. Fitness permitting, it’s hard to see who can close a gap that’s still widening.
When did this event happen? I get so confused between all the different uploading schedules (between diff contests). Some of them seem to be uploaded right away, others weeks later.
I really don’t like the timer counting down. I know many of the world record times and I’d like to see it real time rather than having to do math in my head 😅
Mark Felix (56) and Iron Biby were not participating in the entire competition, only going for the world record in the Hercules hold, which is why they are not included in the score. It would not be fair to compare other athletes who are competing in multiple events and thus have to be judicious with their exertion at each event vs. athletes competing in only one event. Same thing with the log or deadlift world record attempts during these competitions.
Not taking away anything from Mitch, at all. But i believe the competition is not as it used to be. The fact that Mitch 'dominates' contests can be 2 things: 1. Mitch is really really strong like superman and no one can touch him. 2. The competition is simply not at the level at it used to be, for a meriad of reasons. I believe its reason no 2.
What great performances from the athletes. And a excellent narration from Mr.Hopper in this video. Giants live has a way with making everyone happy and involved.
mitch is arnolds winner, giants winner, strongest man on earth winner this year...as well as worlds strongest man last year....beating tom multiple times this year and last year.
He needs to compete more to prove this. You can't claim that without competing with the best in the world. If Thor starts winning as consistently as Mitch, I will concede that title but until then we need to give Mitch his flowers. You are only showing your bias.
10:15 why isnt the guy who won the Hercules event listed? His time was over 1:30 but his time is not on the board. But I guess that would mean Hooper didn't dominate EVERY event so let's just sweep that under the rug
@@schulme123 Dont be so sensitive nancy, this was a mere observation as the others seem to lock it out with a more straight upperbody. which is a bit harder to do.
Luke and Mitch hugging it out was awesome! The love in this sport is great
I've said multiple times. That's my favourite Strongman-moment of the year!
It is great that all these alphas are pretty good to each other! There is more animosity in chess than strong man lol
With Hooper not needing to do the last event it made the 2nd and 3rd stone run a nail biter
Love that Giants are using the SMOE title for Mitch, hope this means Shaw and Giants are on good terms!
Mark Felix really is something else. 58 years old and still setting the bar on the Hercules hold.
And an amazing physique.
Editing on hercules hold was really clever and fun to watch!
Thank you 🙏🏼
You guys really like Mitch, seems hes a good poster child for Giants Live.
He’s the best on camera which goes a long way when making content… He’s also very insightful and a hell of an athlete.
Because he’s an amazing human in general. He’s insanely strong and performed like no one other, but he’s very humble and friendly and just a good human, he encourages everyone to do his best, and even is pushing his competitors for a good fight. Everyone loves him because he is who he is.
@@GiantsLiveSTRONGMAN 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I mean he's the best strongman on the world by a significant margin so why wouldn't they like him? He's also a good person and does good works.
I mean he is also the current best
The camaraderie between athletes is one of my favorite things about strongman.
Yes, that's exactly why Thor caused so much uproar.
Mitch is probably the most tactical strongman I’ve seen. He does just enough to win events, but doesn’t over-exert himself if he already got it
Hooper and CBum. Devon larrat. Canada is killing it
Greg Doucette?
@@Jasi.bristollol, Greg is just retired bodybuilder that speaks like a parrot
trudeau
@@milanaleksic8979 Ok that was way below the belt.
Mooooose! Wow it has been a pleasure watching you this year. All the strong men participants deserve a round of applause and more money for their hard work!
Mitch Hooper is a beast.
never let your genetics stop you guys, the man with the shittiest beard genetics is the strongest in the competition by a mile
Nonsensical
@@armwrestlingfan6804 🤭🤭😂😂
What are you talking about that’s an amazing beard, in combination with this bald head it looks so classy. Love it.
@@BackwardsJohnsCreations meant like as in he cant grow a full beard, but honestly he has an iconic look and isnt like all of these other copy pasted bearded strongmen
@@argonaut00why he can’t? I see he has a very good beard genetics, but just shaving fully often
58 years old and whips out a 91 second hold….. no fkn way!
What an animal.
Great editing on this video. Shame Mitch didn't have to at least attempt the final event. Would have been great to see him against Stoltman.
These videos are very enjoyable
Will the current crop catch the frontrunner or will it be strength athletes who aren’t in the sport yet who begin to operate at this level.
I think the latter. Fitness permitting, it’s hard to see who can close a gap that’s still widening.
My ex-wife took our house and walked away with it. Now all I have left is the asparagus behind which I now easily hide in fear her return.
BJJ or Judo 🤔

Mitch is a great strongman who is ruling the roost at the moment but hopefully this will inspire others to improve
I just wish lucas hatman would have been in the competition
Mark Felix is a superhero.
Why is he a superhero and not the 50 guys better than him? Is it cause he's black?
We are watching a legend in the making👑🦀
I really don’t like the timer counting down. I know many of the world record times and I’d like to see it real time rather than having to do math in my head 😅
Luke looking strong
I have no doubt that Grekov is going to take that world record.
how do they not get disk herniations
Mitch is UNVELIEVEABLE
MOst impressive dumbell press was Roman Grekof.
He’s a beast, isn’t he?
Did Trey just do that stone run without any tacky?
What happened to that dudes 1:31 score on Hercules hold? (It wasn’t on the scoreboard and hooper was in 1st place).
Mark Felix (56) and Iron Biby were not participating in the entire competition, only going for the world record in the Hercules hold, which is why they are not included in the score. It would not be fair to compare other athletes who are competing in multiple events and thus have to be judicious with their exertion at each event vs. athletes competing in only one event. Same thing with the log or deadlift world record attempts during these competitions.
Why do you have Biby beating Hooper in the Hercules Hold with this edit? In the livestream he's behind Hooper by a fraction of a second.
Hooper gently letting the dumbbells down during the medley is insane
Hooper is the most intelligent strongman ever.
2:00 what's the song?
is it in that event was eddie hall participated on that event? cause i like him😊
Eddie retired 6 years ago
English please
@@GiantsLiveSTRONGMAN omg....what happened?? is eddie didnt want break his record deadlift 500 kg?
was that pa commentating ?

The depth of talent is bigger now than it ever has been. 4 men pulled 470kg a few weeks ago? Hardly at a lower level… Mitch is just that good
What was inside the winners backpacks?
stuffing of some sort 😅
One of these guys is going to hire a paid hitter to deal with Mitch hooper 💀💀
mitch went from 🥚to 👺
😍👍💪🏻💪🏿🏅.
What great performances from the athletes. And a excellent narration from Mr.Hopper in this video. Giants live has a way with making everyone happy and involved.
He didn't even do the stones, so no he didn't dominate every event.
LOL...that's true!
Can’t we watch anything without the F word having to be used.
Hooper had it easy? Sounds like a poor sport to me.
Tom stoltman is now officially worlds strongest man
This is true, but Mitch won Brian Shaws strongest man on earth comp so technically it's right.
Mitch is worlds strongest moose?
mitch is arnolds winner, giants winner, strongest man on earth winner this year...as well as worlds strongest man last year....beating tom multiple times this year and last year.
We live on a planet where the World's Strongest Man™ isn't The Strongest Man on Earth™.
@@Pletzmutz Nice flip!
4 events out of 5 so not every event...!
Hmm yeah true. Every event he took part in though!
LOL...true, got em there!
Thor is the strongest man on Earth!!!!
We will see at the Rogue Invitational whether he can close the gap on Hooper. I doubt it.
Right now he isn't.
Best deadlift.
He needs to compete more to prove this. You can't claim that without competing with the best in the world. If Thor starts winning as consistently as Mitch, I will concede that title but until then we need to give Mitch his flowers. You are only showing your bias.
He's objectively not. He literally lost to Mitch Hooper, lol.
10:15 why isnt the guy who won the Hercules event listed? His time was over 1:30 but his time is not on the board. But I guess that would mean Hooper didn't dominate EVERY event so let's just sweep that under the rug
Because they participated in only that event in attempt for the world record while everyone else had participated in all the other events
Felix and Biby weren’t doing the full show, so they weren’t getting points
hooper gets the lockout more sideways than others, he seemed to react at it while it went down but realized he got it by judges
That’s just because that’s the position he locks out in, he threw it down after getting the down
command!
Sigh...why the hate?
@@GiantsLiveSTRONGMAN i thought you had to be more straight up with the upperbody since, it seems like everyone else did that.
@@schulme123 Dont be so sensitive nancy, this was a mere observation as the others seem to lock it out with a more straight upperbody. which is a bit harder to do.
@@wernerbro3208 So I am not to be sensitive about something that you seem sensitive about? Good night!
