For people who aren't aware of strongman competetions, the shorter guy, Zyrdunas Savickas is considered the greatest of all time. If you go watch competetions, you can see Zydrunas winning them in his 40's while all the young guys can't keep up, truly impressive.

He got advantage as his starting position is higher than his competitor.

I'm Icelandic and love hafþór and what he has done, but there can't be any fan of strongman who doesn't love and respect Zydrunas for his pure strength and his character as a strongman, outside of the big 3 Icelandic strongmen, or even alongside them, he's my favorite ever strongman.
That music after they announce the winner is just killing me😂😂😂😂😂
do u know the name of the song?
The vaguely romantic music at the end of each event is just too much. 😂
Omg😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
It's obviously a bromance going on in here. ;)
Bad choice
I didn't catch that moment :-D I thought someone put it over original video :-D
The music combined with the zoom ins on Zydrunas’s face is an absolute masterpiece😂.
Indeed 🤭😂🤣
🤣
Lol I was like "tf is this😂
Lol I was seeing myself in that guy
An accidental meme
The thing I love about strongmen is that they respects each other. Great show of sportsmanship always.
Like, e.g. Thor and Hall? That kind of respect?!🤣🤣🤣
Big Z is probably the best static presser of all time. His press looks so clean like he was made to do that .
Smoothest lifting overhead of all time.. cleanest technique. I don't think we'll ever see anyone close.
@@justinfletcher7630 Prime Eddie Hall is stronger obviously stronger. Higher PB + no leg drive.

He looks like he's doing some cardio ^^
Its because his arms are too short. Thats why he won.
@@robertohernandez126 and what about the bar for the fridges?if it would've been lower for the shorter guy,Zydrunas had more chance to win.same rules for averyone.just saying
@@robertohernandez126 It's because he had the strongest shoulders ever
Shoulder strength is his main strength
From when i was just a little kid to now, seeing Big Z competing in strong man was common and expected, that's why Big Z is just one beast of a legend! The most impressive strong man of all time. He might not be the guy who allways wins, but he's the guy that just NEVER quits!
If anyone Big Z is that guy. He‘s got a win rate of like 50%.
Guys like Hafthor and Mariuzs have slightly better winning percentages but they’ve only done half as many comps, which can be argued to be more or less impressive.
At the time of this event Zydrunus was out of his prime at 39 years while Thor was in his prime at 26 years so that's a major advantage for Thor. In spite of that both of them were evenly matched (though Zydrunus dominated more strongly in the events he won as compared to Thor's domination in the events that he won) and neither could be judged as stronger than the other. If they were both of the same age then the results would probably be one sided in favour of Zydrunus.
Zydrunas is stronger in arms.
@@braianmarconi5456 nop we see it when holding 20 gram, he loose thor wins
@@braianmarconi5456 nop we see it when holding 20 gram, he loose thor wins
Nonsense. Zydrunus was in his prime in 2014. Thor was emerging. It would have been a different story if it was this Zydrunus v. 2018/19/20 Thor.
What? Zydrunas was in his absolute prime here. Thor was nowhere near it. At age 25 Zydrunas was nowhere near as strong as in this
1x Fortissimus / 2x IFSA / 3x Europe's Strongest man / 4x World's Strongest Man / 8x Arnold's Classic .
Zydrunas has won everything there is to win. He is strongest man to ever live.
Salty much? This was Z's prime and thor became even stronger in 2017-2019
@@dabmaste You smoke crack if you think that this was big Z's prime. Prime at 40??? You crazy. Thor is no doubt one of the world strongest ever, but man if you are a fan of the World's strongest men competition, then you would know that Big Z is the Strongest man ever... Don't be fooled by Thor's deadlift record... As Recent as 2005, the Deadlift record was 440 kg( from powerlifting) , 410 kg for the Strongman competitions, and now 16 years later, its at 501, it definitely going to increase again in the following years to come...
@@xila-man8249 should I add pepper or salt? U reply
@@dabmaste Whatever
Pudzianowski was stronger. He is the GOAT. Shaw might also be as strong as Zydrunas.
One of creepiest things I ever witnessed in my entire life was the god awful music that played when they won a world record.
do u know the name of the song?
bruh
Hafthor is strong because of his training matched with his size.
Zydrunas is just raw power
Zydrunas has more power in his arms and shoulder
Exactly
Thor is just a bigger and stronger man
@@grevengriff8609 he got beat by 8 reps on overhead, which is more than twice more reps than he could pull off, Z also got nearly two times more log lifts, with his lifts also looking cleaner. Thor is taller and arguably more athletic than Z, which gave him the upper hand in the 4 events that he undeniably won. He's also crazy strong, but Z, even considering it's past his prime, is much stronger statically and has the single best strongman track record in history. Thor is amazing in his own right, but BIG Z is and will always be the GOAT.
Thor was complaing about his biceps
Zydrunas is the Greatest of all time because…
1. He holds more world records in strength than anyone else, dead or alive.
2. He holds 15 Guinness World Records which puts him in the top 1% of all record breakers (inside or outside of strongman)
3. He has won more strength competitions than any other person in the world
4. He is the only modern strongman competitor to have won every major tournament
5. He has won more than 20 world-class championship titles, including IFSA, Worlds, Arnold’s etc
6. He has won more than 200 strongman tournaments worldwide
I always wondered how far a strongman could throw my niece. Now I know it's at least 4 meters. Thank you Guinness.
lmaoo
actually its way easier to lift a person due to aerodynamics. And throw him obviously
@@billsonx4277 yikes
@@billsonx4277 depend on their masse, some people are more aerodinamic than others.
Why are you being so educated?

THERE IT IS
Lmfaooooo
I was about to say this
Years earlier and it would be 8-0 to Big Z
Yea cus thor wouldnt b where hes at now u gotta get them both in their prime and find out who would win
This was recorded in 2013 and Zydrunas was in his prime in 2014-2016
Lol this was young Hafthor when he wasnt nearly as strong as he was 2017-2020
Lol idiot this is 2014 big z prime
in 4 years time it would be 8-0 to Thor...
...wait, whats your point again?
These are the 2 men who used all of their skill points on strength
And height
@@lukenewton-lewis78 well yes but actually non't
They used a hex editor to get an extra 20 points over you're average person....
the R&B music at the end of every round made me laugh
Which song is that
Hahahahha its so smooth
True but it wasn't at the end of all of them
@@SherwoodForest6199 then can uh plz tell me song name
@@rocksatyam_110 r u from Mumbai?
You can tell who are the actual lifting and strongman fans and who are just Game of Thrones/Thor fans. Anybody who knows anything about strongman has nothing but respect for Big Z. One of the best, if not the best, to ever do it.
THERE WAS NO WAY IN THIS UNIVERSE THAT THOR WAS GOING TO WIN AGAINST ZYDRUNAS IN ANY OVERHEAD LIFT EVENT.
Yeah. Thor has much longer arms.
@@jasonb5596 and didn’t have shoulder strength like Z
@@jasonb5596 yeah that's why Thor had a major advantage in the car pulling and the keg overhead throw events.
competition seems to have been prepared so both of them were favorites to win half of the events.
eddie hall? iron biby? the world has billions of poeple u know.
Bro the music when they give the guy the prize is just insane 😂😂😂
do u know the name of the song?
anyone know the song
@@armanverma6519 oauu woo da
love how he has no expression at all just straight "😐 damn i lost"
That's always Big Z's expression. Bro is a robot that was built for lifting
And that too he is only Halfthor. Imagine if he is Fullthor
haha so dry.
His dad is Fullthor. Halfthor is a demigod. That's why he's so big and strong.
14:32 probably the least intimidating yet the most painful match.
winning the one with a "false start" would feel absolutely terrible, knowing you weren't as fast.
Obsolutely Thor beast
In wsm and the arnolds its a win. False starts/improper lifts are the athletes fault. They both know that's why he had no bs feelings about it
@@vincedordas7302 well yes but the man is talking about how he would feel
@@GrayZ_dood well pretty much anyone would be dissappointed and feel down knowing they tried their best yet just because of a slight human error their efforts were put to waste...just like when eddie hall 1st intended to break the world record deadlift at 400+kgs but it was waved as a false lift and it decimated him.... well it did turnout good for him at 2017 wsm he finnally won and held the record at 500kgs
@@vincedordas7302 well indeed but from my perspective you were like talking in the strongmans perspective and then I thought you misunderstood the guy and all that y'know?
Žydrūnas has a stronger press and Thor has a height/weight advantage. Both are strong never the less.
Also žydrūnas(45) is 13 years older than thor(32)
Big Z has do over 20 years strongman competions and he was in every event i think on the podium. He is the strongest ever.
*7 Guinness World Records were broken during this Amazing dual:*
Refrigerator Carry - Hafthor Bjornsson ✅
Power Stairs - Zydrunas Savickas. ✅ Thor was 2.4 seconds faster but bad luck with the false start.
Log press for reps - Zydrunas Savickas ✅
Max height keg toss - Hafthor Bjornsson✅
Car Pull - Hafthor Bjornsson ✅
Washing machine throw - Zydrunas Savickas ✅
Battery hold - Thor narrow missed the WR at that time by 5 seconds.
Bike press - Zydrunas Savickas ✅
However in 2014, Zydrunas was in his prime and Hafthor was only coming through the ranks. He peaked 4 years later in 2018.
Thor Eddie and Big Z might be the three strongest Men to have ever walk the earth
@@haventhebeast6050 In terms of my research also, you are correct.
These men could probably lift a car together
Nah they could do it by themselves(meaning solo)
@@vincedordas7302 no dip
Everyone talk about this two big men but the only monster in that place is called Gerry Scotti
Tu si che sei un uomo di cultura
Ma che ne sanno gli americani
Solo cuoricini per Gerry nazionale❤️❤️❤️❤️
Sorry guys, I don't speak 15 euros pizzas
I love the Flawless flow of Log Lift of Big Z... He does it Effortlessly as if it is nothing
Remember there are 14 years in age between these two. Considdering how Big Z did here it truly prove WHY he have 4 WSM titles under his name and Thor only have 1. The washing machine throw and overhead presses was won by a large margin for Big Z. So once again he is truly one of the great without any doubt and this just prove it ;)
Exactly, there's 14 years of difference. Thor hadn't entered his prime yet. He's got way stronger and the only reason Z won 4 times is because the competition wasn't as strong back then.
Thor retired from strongman now, but in his prime, he would absolutely destroy Z in his prime.
Also the washing machine throw represents absolutely nothing. They were 2 completely different throws. Z had more angle, Thor had more height. Z also went over the line with his body while Thor's entire body stayed behind the line.
@@themonsterunderyourbed9408 First of all Thor never stayed long enough in strongman to prove he was better compared to the lenght of Big Z careeer and how much he did over all those years.
2nd as time moves forward as it does, people adapt in training methods and knowledge, thus improve them on getting stronger than the older generation.
Big Z have set more milestones during his career then Thor ever wil. The opponents was not easier to beat, Big Z just trained harder
Mariusz P, Big Z, Brian Shaw among others will always be considered Goats in strongman, not only for their 5, 4 and 4 respectable wins. But also for the milestones they've set and how they pushed the sport forward creating what we see today.
Tom Stoltman have more wins than Thor so he have done better just to make an example.
I can lay down in my bed for days without feeling boring. Is this a catagory for Guiness?
I hope so
Same but I don't know if it is a category for guiness
Probably
It may be a category in the guiness but i guess u aren't the only one who can do that
@@22_balamaniraja58 hahaha yes. That would be the most boring competition in TV of all time. But if you win, you can put it in your Curriculum vitae. It will not really help you to find a job, but hey......
Thors first washing machine throw with the epic music in the background literally had me in tears 😂😂😂. Wtf was with the music anyway, it was like the score from 70s starwars mixed with cheesy 80s music, the whole thing is like ab accidental comedy 😂😂
Zydrunas shoulder strenght is unmatched
maybe Biby can match if you could have big Z in his prime against Biby that would be interesting
I really enjoyed that I’ve watched strong man all life but never seen this before well done to both of you amazing 💙💙🏆🏆
It seems that Zydrunas have greater upper body strength (throwing washing machine, lifting quad bike) while Thor have greater lower body strength (carrying fridge, pulling cars).
Thor is also quite taller so he can walk easier carrying the fridges, and making bigger steps.
@@xZeroOffical being taller has disadvantages too...like you can see in overhead presses.....longer arms require more strength.... I guess overall thor is stronger than big z
@@shivamrawat2811 True that, but I still think that greater height has more advantages compared to disadvantages.
@@xZeroOffical yeah it does....but in most exercises it's a disadvantage as you can see here....even in leg press you have to bend your legs more and also in squats.
Carry requires upper body as does pulling and keg toss.
This was an amazing match and both of the contenders showed great skill, hope to see something like this again soon! :)
That music, and super close up to the athletes faces, golden!
At 2:16 with the music I for real thought he was about to start singing. 😂
Thor trying his hardest to double dip on a seated press 😂😂
So true 😂😂😂
🤣😂
I was looking for this comment. This deserves more likes
thor was too tall for the viking press in 2017. thats why the short guys did it better.
They need new equipment so tall guys have a fair go vs the short guys.
Double dipping gives zero advantage.
Let's just appreciate how strong they were
Unbelievable!.thanks alot for luvly posting
Idk when this came out but I remember watching this on cable as a kid amazed I'm eighteen now finding this on UA-cam truly inspiring times where living in.
They could've put the bar a little lower for the shorter guy in the fridge walk.
Yeah i feel like most of the times he wins just cuz he's a lot taller than the other guys
@@user-ud6xw3js3r yeah, bunch of idiots with their miscalculations.

Love the music!
Big Z is still a machine , if they did this 15 years ago Thor would go home crying 😄
Zydrunas claims his static strength was at it's peak in 2015. I think what happened is that his muscles kept getting stronger, but his injuries kept accumulating.

Lifiting the quad bike was just an ordinary gym training for Big Z.

These guys: 3-2 in world records
That music tho!! Getting me pumped up
For people thinking “thor” is stronger just cause you know him from GOT, big z is a 4 time world strongest man and an 8 time Arnold strongman classic, mad stats. Would love to see Eddie hall and Brian shaw included in this
No deadlift , so Kieliszkowski would be the best from all of them!

@@J.c410 to be fair eddie hall only wanted to win wsm once and would reitire after the victory so... I dont get where your going from

Thor has 10 major title wins, eddie doesnt compare to any of these top strongmen he only has 1 major title win 🤣 plus thor in his prime is stronger than big z in his prime, nothing to do with GoT...
This was awesome to watch!!!
Man that was funny as hell.......Big Z's face when he loses with that tune!!!! dying over here like lol ;-)
🎶everyday I’m starting out a winner🎶 lovely.
A couple of these events remind me how strongman competitions used to be before they got a little too serious with real weights and real equipment. We see real weights all the time. It's much more entertaining to see: a fridge being thrown, weights containing cheese being lifted, arm wrestling, carrying people wagons and the list goes on. Huzzah! Guinness!
