- If ever there was a fan-favorite competitor at the Arnold Strongman Classic, it is Rogue Athlete Hafthor Bjornsson. The Icelandic Strongman will make his 8th appearance at the Arnold this year, coming off his best finish ever of second place in 2017. "The Mountain" will have to battle fellow Rogue Athlete and 3-time Arnold champion Brian Shaw for that top podium spot. But if his training is any indication, he's ready for war.
When the 6.8 guy is the shortest man in the family
wir3 i think he is 6'9"
He is 6’8”. Shaw is 6’9”. Massive family though. So jealous.
I was jealous of their height until I saw a video of how frustrated Brian Shaw said he gets in everyday life due to his size.
hes 6'7,75'' and Shaw is 6'7,25'' so hafthor is half an Inch taller
Oh ok. You’re right, Falk. It says Shaw is 6’8” on Wikipedia. Idk why I thought he was 6’9”. Could have sworn I saw that on WSM. Either way. Massive individuals.
Stronger than ever. 2018 could very well be his year.
I hope for his victory.
hes lucky no eddie hall
How many times has Hall placed above Thor in contests? Once...
Starting Strongman hall is jus stronger Straight up Static strength wise Thor is jus more agile
Well Hall passed him once and won WSM if he kept in competition he'd have been ahead and only gotten stronger by this Arnold. So yeah I'd say Thor is lucky that Eddie is out, but that doesn't mean Thor isn't incredible or that it will be any easier for him.
at 1:17 it looks like he went for a fist bump then realised no one was there XD
W
That killed me thank you so much lmao
Jesus, his Dad and Granddad are both nearly 7 feet tall. Wow. No recidivism to the norm there over the generations.
please see this video!! my christian brothers and sister 😞 is this the god we worship ????????! open your eyes !! come on !! we are not in the straight path 😞 we are engaged in false believe !! my christian brothers and sisters lets get together and study the bible and let us see what our beloved jesus(peace be upon him) instructed us to do !!! cause jesus never claim divinity but he repeatedly said that our lord ! our God is one!!!! jesus is addressing to one superior God (ALLAAH in arabic quran and elooh in hebrew bible ) jesus(peace be upon him) never claim divinity in the complete bible rather he is repeatedly confirming in mark 12:29 “And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord” !!jesus did not say three in one ! :) but he said our God is one Lord!!!!:) and further jesus did not say that the lord your God is one lord rather he said the "Lord (our) our God is one Lord" but he preciously included himself too !! :) seems like jesus is addressing some one who is far superior than any one including himself !!!! !!! my well educated brothers and sisters think wisely and logically !! i am coating from the bible directly !!!some thing is wrong some where my beloved brothers and sisters :( ua-cam.com/video/U46sWuf_uMk/v-deo.html
www.quotescosmos.com/bible/bible-verses/Mark-12-29.html
and my beloved educated brothers and sisters i will tell you again again that almighty the most gracious God did not allow the jews to crucify our beloved jesus on the cross like a stray dog :( unfortunately as you friends believe according to your mythical beliefs but as he prayed to God( ALLAAH in arabic and loving father in the heaven according to the bible)"Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?" (which means "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?").matthew 27:46 !!! he was raised up alive unto God(ALLAAH in arabic and loving father in the heaven according to the bible)and almighty God answerd his prayers !!! thus saving him from the nasty naked death on the cross !!! but you illogical stubborn senseless people still testify that our beloved jesus died on the cross even after he prayed to God for help proving that God(ALLAAH in arabic and Eloh in hebrew) did not save our beloved jesus!! and allowed those nasty jews to crucify jesus to the cross die naked in this shameful manner !!! :( what make you people to think such grievous illogical thoughts about our beloved jesus (peace be upon him)!?? :( :( :( scontent.fcmb5-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/30708010_1746102562115354_901391898877362176_n.jpg?_nc_cat=0&oh=ba4c43135f1b00c63410e671a5cafb5a&oe=5BAD012D
mathew 14:24…23 After He had sent them away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray. When evening came, He was there alone, 24 but the boat was already far from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it. 25 During the fourth watch of the night, Jesus went out to them, walking on the sea.… yes i am asking this learned christians to whom jesus prayed to ??? he prayed to none other but almighty ALLAH (loving father in the heaven) so beseech the truth !! jesus is not your lord or your God !! not bible says that crystal clearly
I didn't even noticed that until I read your comment and went back and looked...wow what a tall family!
Viking genes
These videos are absolutely amazing. It’s been a long time since I have been eagerly waiting for a channel to upload videos but these strongman Arnold classic videos are something else. Looking forward to rest. Great job Rogue
4:58 such a nice laugh you can see hes a good person
A good person is a good sport when beaten ...
How does your Icelandic sound when your face is half paralysed by bell's palsy?
He would have gotten that far if he wasn't.
World strongest man 2017 is the only time i saw him act that way when he lost, he just wanted it so bad. That`s no excuse, 3 times 3rd and 2 times 2nd it`s gotta fuck with ya!!!!
I love the captions for that part: "[laughter from a giant]".
You know you strong when you laugh like haftor.
Subtitled: "[laughter from a giant]"
Those two meals were Stan Efferding specials!
The Monster Mash!
muh vertical diet
Stan is running his plan!!!
Yes, I know. And Stan calls it his Monster Mash
Seen him in Manchester airport England today. Fantastic fella good luck 👍Thor.
I've said it a while now but this year is definately Thor's year, he looks stronger than ever. I believe he will make a deadlift atleast 470kg this year. THOR POWER! ✊✊✊👏👏👏
He hit 460 at WSM 2017 so he can deffo get 470, maybe even more!
Dave Pearce if eddie was there it wouldnt even amaze people
^what a bullshit statement to make lol
I call 480kg
The Mad Recon I dont know what world you come from where 470kg DL doesnt amaze people. Fucking idiot. Thats about 5 times more than you will ever DL.
Whole world has your back, Hafthor!!! You will smash more records in the future! 🙏
This comment aged PERFECTLY WELL.
I've watched all the Rogue Arnold videos thus far. Honestly, it's anyone's event at any given time. I don't care about any other event except my favorite. The deadlift. Good luck, Thor!
This comment aged PERFECTLY WELL.
Went on to dominate the Competition for 3 consecutive years! Everyone else was fighting for 2nd, 3rd and 4th places...
I hope he wins Thor trained so hard this year and he got more strength than ever before 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

Hafthor is the man ! Now that you won the Arnold, win this motherf*ckin WSM !
He did!
@ 4:55 "Laughter from a giant" these captions are gold
Looks like the Bell’s is easing up a bit, which is good to see. Einar’s beard is fucking epic!
Ginger Floof i had bells palsey wrnt away on its own in about 3 weeks. Just woke up one day and half my face wouldnt move. Hopefully his will subside.
kawi lifezx10r glad yours has cleared up, must have been pretty fucking terrifying though! Thor’s seems to be getting better too, although it hasn’t stopped the thunderous Viking shouting!
Yea thought i was having a stroke or something definitely was scary but usually goes away over time
My sister had Bells Paulsey I think it took about 6 months to clear up, she was lucky I've heard that it is occasionally permanent.
Bell's palsy usually starts to fix on it's after a few weeks with most people being back to normal in about 6 months.
What's his father name?
Oden?
Tarun Kathayat Icelandic people take their father's name + sson as last name, so I guess his name is Björn
@@KingOfParrots it is and björn means bear in icelandic
Aladin Hasanagic i know
Viglet....not a fan of the real "Thor"....huh?😂
Leonidas Knightis hehe sure. I just wanted to be an ass there for a moment
When your grandfather, dad and you are 6'9 or taller you have Viking genes.
"Viking genes" is the dumbest fucking thing I've ever heard. "Vikings" are not a race. Vikings were explorers and warriors but also pillagers and rapists.
The fact that you took that literally makes you dumb....
or just called it Beastly *NORDIC* genetics
Maxtez i think he means scandanavian genes.
Gabriel Guerrero this genes is a madeup shit by pussies, I have,nt even heard of a doctor talking about genes. What about Bruce Lee?? The guy was just an average asian and was the strongest man when he was alive.
I love these Road To videos. They pump me up so much.
BEAST! Nice to see his father & grandfather's positive influence and impact on his life and success
Hafthor's shape is awesome. He is powerful AND aesthetic. My favorite strongman and one of my dream goals.
This year is gonna be amazing, it's mind blowing to watch him deadlift 1000lbs in the gym.
That lift was solid. No hesitation. Straightforward, even when releasing the weight. He increased so much!
man, even suffering through the bell's palsy, he still kicking ass! very inspiring!
2018 is your year !!! Good luck THOR !!!!

damn storytelling interesting, cinematography perfect and edit on point
Absolutely love the 8k upload! Awesome content. Will be subscribing
the way icelandic people pronounce a few english words sound similar to when welsh people speak english
These videos are gold. You will smash it at Arnold's! Good luck!
Looking solid for the competition!! He is going to be a serious contender this year..
He's always a serious contender. He's came in third and second place. Now it's his time!
He did win and broke the dead lift world record, The Mountain
he is going to win this year for sure.
This comment aged PERFECTLY WELL.
Go Hafthor!! I believe you can finally win this year
Amazing athlete and person. I'm rooting for you Thor!
Happy to see that he is doing better
Time for Thor to start winning I reckon. He's been the up n coming young guy for long enough. Looks in really good nick this year, I reckon he can win both the Arnold and WSM.
This comment aged PERFECTLY WELL.
This is awesome!! Thanks for the videos. Would definitely love to see one with Ray Williams!!!!
" I think i can take that record " and he did!!!
And broke it again in 2019, became the first man to pull 1000 lbs for reps and finally broke the All time WR as well!
I miss this Halfthor.
I wish I was Icelandic. And this year is his year honestly, nothing but training
Rhino's Monster Munch spotted! Best wishes for this year Hafthor!
I love when he introduces himself at the beginning of the video. Hafjuliusbjorson, he says it really fast
During my training, I also yell his full name and I also try my best to pronounce it exactly like he did:
HaFFOR-YOUliyas-BEERSon (capital letters pronounced with ultra-bass).
When him and Shaw get into their old man strength, I can’t even imagine the possibilities...
He has put in the work, now he deserves the crown
He did it!
looks like his face is almost back to normal
Anon M
Yeah didn't even notice.
What happened to his face? Did it become paralysed?
I noticed it, looks like Bell's Palsy...I didn't realize how many actors actually had it
I want to agree, but it's still very noticable.
I don't think it changed , unnfortunately, it's just that we got used to it
gf: babe, did you pull out?
bf: 4:57
LMAO
This guy is awesome!
He inproved so much
So happy to see your face is getting better.
He's definitely going to break world records
Officially the world's strongest man 2018
I wish I had more Viking in my genes
Thicc Shake Its not about the genes bro its about the hardwork and dedication
@@damnman5113 its genetic lmao, its why most of the worlds strongest men are northern european
@@damnman5113 not saying you have to be genitically gifted to get huge, but to get to bjornes level it has to be within your dna, you either have it or you dont
@@damnman5113 lmao, yeah your right all humans are equal i guess lmaoo, if i was a 5ft soy-boy with low testosterone i can get huge if i try my hardest and never give up😂 genetics are real and judging by your insults you know you dont have what it takes lmao
meme slut Haha you genetic pussies sees another more hardworking dude, crys genetics. You people are just undertraining. Theres an olympic weightlifter, idk his name but he,s a soyboy but the most powerful pound to pound weightlifter. What will you cry now,Steroids??
LOVE YOU HAFTHOR
Happy to see the training has been going well. Best of luck, go crush it!
Good to see the viking spirit alive and well!
Excellent Athlete
I can't wait for the Arnolds
440 kilos for 2 reps... Incredible
Congratulations! Ser gregor clegane for winning the world's strongest man!!!!New wsm!!! Haftor!!!
Good luck Hafthor!! Nice video
He's 29??!!!wtf
That's a side affect of steroids.
Not on steroids. They're tested and everything, you cant use steroids and compete in WSM. Says right on the website that they test for PEDs
You honestly think people can't beat drug tests? Give me a break.
@@jkatz9791 if you think the human body can take a 10.000 kcal diat and daily strongman training on the level with lifting several hundred pounds than you are more than naive. Of course he trains hard and is one of the best but he is mostly even for being in this industry on serious medication.
I think he spends around 20 to 30k a year on Juice. The heavy use of roids the eating of like 4 to 5 pounds of meat and the kind of training is the reason that strongman and pro bodybuilders are known to be lucky if they make it to 60+.
salamango81 And I can guarantee you he doesn't
Really hope he wins it this year
Why does watching him makes me so happy wtf
And you were right!
People are going stronger and stronger, that's insane !
And he kept his promise!
Hafthor deserves to win WSM18 more than anyone!! And I think he is the favourite to do so!
uvuvwevwevweonyetenyevweugwemubwemossas Doubt it. Its much more popular in europe. Especially majority of people competing or training for it are from europe.
Loved this video more of him pls
5:51 is that johnson baby ?
Waited a year for this. finally!
can't wait to see Thor vs Brian Shaw at the WSM 2018!
Can't wait for the tournament
I will seriously buy an 8k monitor if rogue keeps making these
Talk about an absolute unit holy shit
Seeing Thor with his father even gives me pride!!! My father is an ass hole just wish there where more supportive and proud fathers out there!!!
Congrats to him for beating that record!
970lbs on the dead lift as a warm up. That's f**king strong!!! 💪 🇮🇸
Get your Trophy at the ARNOLDS!!!!
Hafthor my man has the best laugh
more videos of Hafthor Bjornsson please
when i need to improve my grades and teacher says bad joke : 4:58
Beast
Iceland's beast, compared to other strongmen he is a true viking with majority muscle.
Yes!! Good luck!!
He said "I improved my deadlift a lot". He wasn't lying.
Does anyone know what kind of back support the black and blue one is ? I see the belt is SBD
This family are giants.
Strong man has gotten really popular the last for 5 years think partly do to Guys Like Him Brian Shaw and Eddie Hall. Too bad the host countries for the world strongest man are always so far away if they did it somewhere in United States New York Vegas California it would draw massive crowd
kawi lifezx10r thing is in those countries the crowds are massive too
I'm glad I got to see Brian Shaw VS Big Z, and Eddie Hall getting better, and Thor continually getting better with age. Those 4 guys in competitions together was great, shame now we're at a point where Big Z is older and perhaps won't be able to be one of the podium guys anymore, and Eddie Hall is retired. But cool to see the two giants Shaw and Thor still going at it, plus other strongmen rising through the ranks
A family of giants
They are all giants in the family
King in the North, King in the North!
and.... he did it！ the new WR
I haven't even got 4k yet and they have 8k now. Wtf!? Haha. Great video btw!
He comes from a family of handsome giants. Wow the height on his father and grandfather is so impressive.
WIN IT THIS TIME THOR!
Excellent genetics.
I have been waiting
I like how none of the 'The Mountain' actors get any recognition for the role they played. rip
