Who are your Top 10 World's strongest Men of all time - and what were their best events?
Eddie hall ahead of Thor 😂😂😂😂
Not even trying to hide your bias
@@Slipknot5301 i know , Thor won a lot More than Eddie
@@Slipknot5301 I understand your point but what Eddie did with his size in all the events for like three years in a row was just insane. Then to be the first one to go after 500. But that’s just his that’s why he asked what are yours
1. Big Z (undisputed)
2. Jon Pall
3. Shaw
4. Thor
5. Kaz
6. Magnus ver Magnusson
7. Virastyuk
8. Mariusz P
9. Badenhorst
10. Hall
@Carl Gambino how many Arnold's has he won? how many podiums even has he achieved in the Arnolds? i can tell you Zero & Zero - not even close to the best
I still cringe when I see Mariusz back slap Poundstone when he's got a Atlas stone on him
Right!
Could of been disqualified
One of the very few strongmen who is a minge, most are genuinely good guys.
It was just his excitement of winning record 5th WSM title , though his intention was not to resist his competitor from completing the event.
agree - it wasn't top ten of sportsmanship thats for sure
Big Z is the greatest strongman of all time
Pudzianowski Mariusz
@RaozSkillz I wish he would win the 5th title Mateusz kieliszkowski does not start, he has a chance to match Pudzianowski as the second in history he will win the 5th title😎
@RaozSkillz I agree with that, Brian was kind of unlucky IMO having to battle zydrunas at his peak otherwise he would probably have more titles and vice versa. But yeah I think Eddie was the strongest strongman of all time but it was short lived.
@@ETlifts honestly though, if Pudzianowski kept competing, z would have 1 win as that 1 win came against a torn armed pudz who also only had a couple of weeks of training. And Shaw would maybe have 1.
I mean Pudzianowski retired at a younger age than big Z was when he won his first as z was older and started strongman years before pudz.
@RaozSkillz I got Brian as the best
Big Z is the strongest man to ever walk the 🌎
Marius!
Big Z is the GOAT! However Brian Shaw is ALL OVER his heels!!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@Tyler Vincent Pudzianowski has 5 WSM (record plus record for largest margin of victory in WSM in 03 and that was against big z)
6 European strongman (record for european and 3-0 against big z and 6-0 overall in European strongman),
16 strongman super series (record for super series wins and 16-1 against big z)
3 strongman team (record for strongman team),
7 polish strongman (record for polish strongman)
I would say that is the best overall accomplishments as the Arnold is the only record wins z has. And Arnold is mainly static which is only 1 feat of strength.
Z was doing strongman competitions for about 20 years, Pudzianowski for only 9. That's what makes this even more amazing. As big Z started the competitions in 96-2018 with a year retired at one point in between. Pudzianowski started in 2000 but then missed all of 01 and chunk of 02 competitions because he was in prison for assaulting a mob boss. So 2000, 2002-2009.
@Tyler Vincent What about Brian still competing and still being one of the best? That needs to count for something. He’s almost 40
@@mr.censored5.082 - how many Arnold's did he win?
@@oddcharacter6891 who gives a shit about the Arnold classic.. there is a reason it’s called the worlds strongest man competition
1 Savickas
2 Kazmair
3 Brian Shaw
4 Pudzianowski
5 Jon Pall Sigmarson
6 Magnus ver Magnusson
7 Haftor Bjornson
8 Ahola
9 Geof Capes
10 Vasyl Virastiuk
Marius🖐💪🌎🌏🌍🌎🌏
Hopefully we'll see Licis, Mateusz, Novikov and Stoltmans added to this list in the coming years.
Licis? Mareusz? But Novikov and eddie hall is yesp
Hope so
Are you from the future? 😂😂
Licis? hahaha now thats funny.
@@Heavy9951 what happened man i dont follow strongman anymore
Winning 8 Arnolds makes Big Z greatest ever
@Carl Gambino 🤣 he couldn't even podium at the Arnold Classic which is a heavier contest and shows who the world's strongest man actually is
@@charlestinsman9680 3-1 against big z in WSM (won 5 overall record and beat z so badly in 03 it was the record for largest margin of victory), 3-0 against big Z in European strongman (pudz 6-0 overall and most wins ever for European) 16-1 against big z in strongman super series (pudz most wins every for super series), also has most wins ever for strongman team.
Arnold is more static strength. Wsm is overall, not just static but explosion, power, endurance with weight, speed with weight, control with weight etc.
Pudzianowski is like the Phelps of strongman, and Big z is like the Japanese guy who always won breaststroke but would get smoked by Phelps in anything else.
Yeah but think about Brian. He is still in the sport and still one of the best that Has to count for something that’s why I have him at the best. I think he’s behind big Z by like one title LOL
Yeah not a chance for Marius. The only reason he won 5 titles is because all the best athletes were at ifsa for a couple years, giving him the title basically because he had no competition. Marius only beat z when z was younger. Once he matured he absolutely destroyed Marius. It’s not really debatable, we’ve seen z demolish Marius in competition many times over.
@@mr.censored5.082 Marius between 2004 & 2008 did not compete against the strongest competitors, he won against a weakened field, this was shown in the Arnolds when he never had a sniff, a fine strongman yes, but far from the greatest, and not in Z's league
Pudzianowski is just so dominant in the sport in his time
Anyone who knows strongmen knows that Big Z should be no1, and an easy no1 at that 😎
If not for the disagreements, then he'd hold more titles than any one has, and likely more than anyone ever would in the future.
A real shame we never got to see that, or how strong he truly was in his prime.
Never got to see how strong he truly was in his prime lol?
The real Goat is Mr. Kaz imagine what more he can do if they didnt ban him
@Carl Gambino Why is big z not at the top? Why is brian so low down?
@Carl Gambino 3 of mariuszs 5 titles were during the IFSA split (so all the top athletes of the time besides him were in IFSA) so 3 of those titles were much easier for him to achieve. Bill did dominate and win 3 and yes he was banned but potential can only be praised so much compaired to what actually did and didn't happen. Yes maybe bill could have won 6 titles but thats just speculative and cant be credited as part of his achievements. Strongman is alot more that just WSM. Big z is the greatest of all time for the following reasons: 4 WSM titles during the most dominant era ever (He competed against the top guys of his time for all 4 years unlike mariusz who had 3 easy titles, 2 IFSA titles (where he competed against all the best in the world besides mariusz), 8 arnold strongman classics titles (6 of which were consecutive). Hes broken hundreds of world records. The IFSAs pretty much count as WSM titles since they were international titles involving the best in the world at the time and Z won 2 of those too.
@Carl Gambino Doesn't exist anymore. That doesn't change the fact that zydrunas won 2 of them
Kaz fan for life, dudes a beast and his strength was decades ahead of his time
Having Eddie hall over Thor is a joke. Eddie has won one international competition total, and that is a controversial win. Thor has won 14+ and has 3rd most podium finishes in wsm.
"controversial win"? Who disputes it? I thought the only person who disputed Eddie beating Thor was Thor and that doesnt make it controversial.
Unless by 'controversial' you mean the controversy of Thor being EXPLICITLY TOLD not to use cheat reps before the event, then using several cheat reps which the (Icelandic)* referee let him get away with, being finally denied one cheat rep, him and his 20 man entourage (who he demanded be allowed despite nobody else ever having huge groups surround them) being very happy with the result and then having Eddie comfortably do more reps and with perfect form and then acting like a little bitch by complaining, swearing on his daughters life etc to try and get the decision overruled.
Yes that was controversial.
Thor is an amazing strongman and has more wins but he was already notorious among athletes and organizers for using his tv 'stardom' to try and get what he wants at events and made himself look like a total c*nt with his actions at WSM 2017.
*No disrespect to MVM who is an amazing Icelandic athlete and ref.
Eddie above Thor? Is that a joke?
Thor:
2018 WSM
3x Arnold Classic winner
5x Europe's Strongest Man winner
2018 World's Ultimate Strongman winner
First and only man in history to win the Arnold Classic, Europe's Strongest Man and World's Strongest Man in the same year
Eddie:
2017 WSM
Never won Europe's Strongest Man
Never made the podium at the Arnold Classic
Only beat Thor 1x in his entire career
Don't forget the 501 kg deadlift🧐
I like Eddie Hall, deadlift can’t be denied... but I agree that he and Thor’s ranking should be switched due to the longer list of accomplishments by Thor.
Eddie also holds the deadlift world record. Also Eddie did it in an official event
@@ExHavic it doesn't matter where he did it. Thor still beat him.
The moment I saw this vid I knew immediately that some of the fans of Thor or Eddie will be here complaining about why one is placed above other, it's like children shouting at each other "my dad is stronger than yours!" 😂
This is a brilliant watch, I’m new to WSM and it’s great to see some footage from before I was born included within this video.
Glad you enjoyed it Emma!🙏💪
having Thor at nr 8 is weird. When he said its strongest men it makes no sense to have Eddie above him and Thor anywhere outside the top 5 or even top 3
My dad is the strongest man in the world no cap
At 335 John Paul was the greatest strongman ever athletic super strong that deadlift world record 1153 lift for a man his size is incredible
*_GREAT FANTASTIC 👏👏👏_*
1. Shaw-truck pull,keg/bag toss, farmers for weight, stones, dumbell when it was a press and not agility (personal favourite)
2. Z log
3. Mariusz P Loading
4. Thor any static Event or a yoke (underestimated in athletic events)
5. Magnus Ver Magnusson anything (my second favourite)
6. Kaz deadlifts
7. John Pall Sigmarsson deadlift
8. Phil Pfister static
9. Eddie Hall anything static
10. Derek Poundstone moving events
Always throwing in Hall and completely ignore Virastyuk.
He was the first one to win WSM & IFSA, podium in both those events and the Arnold’s three times in second place.
IMO he’s a greater strongman than Hall and Official Strongman should give him more recognition.
Hes a great strongman and is under appreciated but hall is greater
@@arvidejhed7280 Explain please. Virastyuk is more accomplished than Eddie.
@@arvidejhed7280 IMO Vasyl is greater. He has achieved far more podiums and has 2 world championships under his belt. No world records but that doesn’t make you greater.
@@TheJoker-yz8dv hall competed against the greatest modern strongmen Z Shaw Bjornson won and had podium places in one of the most competive eras of strongman. And of course his deadlift is legendary. All of this is or course my oppinion and you may very well dissagre
@@arvidejhed7280 understood, he did compete against giants like Thor and Brian, however Vasyl competed against prime Zydrunas, Pudzianowski, and Poundstone. So both defeated very capable strongmen. Static strength there’s no comparison, however Vasyl I’m sure would’ve placed higher than Eddie in his earlier years besides 16’ and 17’
I’m a big fan of Brian so I look at him as the best ever but if someone says I’m wrong and says Big Z is. I can’t really argue with them. I just look at the fact that Brian is still competing and still one of the best and not at the bottom of the pack. The training and focus and energy he still puts into the sport it’s just crazy. Think about all the money he spends just on food
Dude u know 5 years different between big z and Brian?
Great to see Jon Pall being the first to congratulate Jeff
How was this judged? Nice to watch but Eddie wouldn't have made my top 10.
Ahola should be higher. And Big Z top.
How is Hafthor lower than hall?
Because this channel is heavily biased towards Eddie.
Because it's Brits who made this top 10 lol
Because he isn't anywhere near as strong. 🤣🤣
@@frankcastle1216 5 ESM , 3 Arnold classics
@@frankcastle1216 This isn't about who is actually stronger. Z, Eddie, Brian and Thor all surpass Mariusz in terms of static strength. This video is about who the greatest World's Strongest Man winner is and Hafthor simply has a much better track record than Eddie.
That Max Log was wild...they both raised it to their thighs like it weighed nothing!
My guess before even watching the video:
Eddie Hall in the Top 5
In terms of pure weight lifted statically Eddie Hall has every right to be considered one of the strongest ever… That's just fact.. You can't compare him career wise to the likes of shaw & Z etc but when he peaked in 2017 there is no denying that Eddie is one of the strongest men to ever live… Z is the GOAT tho.. followed by Shaw & Kaz imo.. dunno why Hall gets all this heat, he lit the sport up & competed in an era full of literal giants & still managed to reach the pinnacle.. dude was legit freakishly strong. No one is saying he's the GOAT, far from it but he was amazing for the sport.
@@jasonsamuels3522 because he literally won ONE international competition
@@jasonsamuels3522 he had to nearly die to win his title the true greats competed for years and some are still competing without having to nearly die to do it
@Tyler Vincent your an Eddie Hater armt you
@Tyler Vincent you're a Hater. They all have some kind of ego, it comes with the territory. P.s more than 1 like on my comment.. you've embarrassed yourself
Jon Pall was a class act, celebrating for a man who just beat you is amazingly humble.
Every man in this list is a Great Man & Legend !
Pudzianowski greatest of all time 💪
Jamie reeves is a little underrated.. held the log lift record for over a decade , two time Europe's strongest man, two time muscle power classic winner (second most prestigious competition at the time , WSM being first..) & probably should have been two time world's strongest man had it not been for a bad call by the referee.. competed in an era when nutrition and training methods weren't as good as today so I can only imagine how good he would have been had he been around in this era..
Jouko is definitely my favorite. I'm not a heavy guy, so having a lighter athlete winning WSM 2x is amazing for me.
Considering 1st place = 9 points, 2nd place = 3 points, 3rd place = 1 point, and number of podiums the tiebreaker, the top 10 at WSM list should be:
1 - Savickas: 4 golds, 6 silvers, 0 bronzes, 54 points ** (Should be higher because he was banned from 2005 to 2007)
2 - Pudzianowski: 5 golds, 2 silvers, 1 bronzes, 52 points ** (should be lower because all the other top athletes were banned in 2005, some until 2008)
3 - Shaw: 4 golds, 1 silvers, 4 bronzes, 43 points
4 - Sigmarsson: 4 golds, 2 silvers, 1 bronzes, 43 points
5 - Ver Magnusson: 4 golds, 2 silvers, 0 bronzes, 42 points
6 - Kazmaier: 3 golds, 1 silvers, 1 bronzes, 31 points ** (should be higher because he was banned from 83 to 86)
7 - Capes: 2 golds, 2 silvers, 2 bronzes, 26 points
8 - Bjornsson: 1 golds, 3 silvers, 4 bronzes, 22 points
9 - Ahola: 2 golds, 1 silvers, 0 bronzes, 21 points
10 - Wilhelm: 2 golds, 0 silvers, 0 bronzes, 18 points
Virastyuk could very possibly be on this list too if he was allowed to compete from 2005 to 2007 on WSM
@@Nirsterkur I made a mistake on Capes but now it is corrected. Thx.
I decided to use this point system because I feel like 2 second places does not equal 1 victory, but if someone is consistent enough to be second 4 times I believe this athlete is better than one time winner that could get lucky on the events/injuries of other athletes and never podium again. I figured that 3 third places should equal 1 second place, and 3 second places should equal one title. For me this makes a lot of sense.
@@Nirsterkur Yes, my intention here was to give a list that made some fucking sense for the people reading the comments because the video is totally random. Like you said, this is not the list of the strongest ever, just what I consider a fair way to judge success at WSM only. Strongest ever title is actually full of shit, you can fit anyone on this title because it is very subjective to your beliefs. You think it's Brian because ASC was not fair? Ok. You think Eddie "100% could" break every static record in strongman or powerlifting? Fine. Big Z is the strongest because he won the most? Sure. Discussions on this are childish and a waste of time because there is no right answer.
You do realize that Pudzianowski is 3-1 against big z in WSM, beat him so badly in 03 that it was the record for largest margin of victory?
Pudzianowski is also 3-0 against big z in European strongman. Also has 6 wins total which is the record.
Pudzianowski is also 16-1 against big z in strongman super series. That 16 wins is the record amount of wins.
He not only beat Big z constantly, but he straight up dominated big z like z was a little school girl.
Z did finally beat Pudzianowski in 09, but pudz had a torn arm and only a couple of weeks of training. Still got second though.
The athletes weren't banned from WSM after 04. They chose to compete at IFSA lmao.
i loved JON PAUL, RIP TO HIM
Mariusz hands down! Polska gora....
Pudzian is the best world strongest man in history 🖐
The newbies are coming strong but they’re nothing compared to these legends of strength
Pudzianowski on the 1st place is well deserved. He is the only one who has ever won WSM 5 times and he is among the only six man who earn themself the right to be in WSM hall of fame.
This channe always suppirt eddie
you dont think he deserves a place in the list?
@@GiantsLiveSTRONGMAN Yes but not the place he got.
Poor Poundstone I feel sorry for him.
I would love to see them join the slap contest.
Give it a few years and my prediction is Tom Stoltman will hold most of the records and I can see him get podium for every event he competes in without injury!
No offense sir, Jon Pal Sigmarsson won WSM 4 times not three. The 5 greatest are: Magnus Ver Magnusson, Jon Pal Sigmarsson, Big Z, Marius (5 × wsm), & Brian Shaw. Kaz is #6 (in my book). Eddie retired to early. Thor, look at his Iceland's strongest man record...10 x. Nuff said.
10:36 yeah that's exactly me.
My Personal List
1. Big Z
2. Mariusz
3. Shaw
4. Kazmaier
5. Jon Pall
6. Magnus Ver
7. Thor
8. Eddie
9. Ahola
10. Poundstone
Kaz should be higher
@@somrajdey6381 Theoretically yes, I do agree to the point that if he was allowed to compete at WSM after his third win he would have won at least 1 more title. But I think given the top 3s accomplishments and their longevity in the sport, that top 3 will be a lock for many years.
Big Z looks like a badass Chris Farley
Magnus Samuelsson power stairs or arm over arm
Svend Karlsen is my favorite.
Viking power forever
Hall should not be on the top 10 list..maybe top 20. And I don't think Ahola should be either though I am fan of Ahola as fellow country men of mine. Edit: oh this was only about worlds strongest man competition..forget what i said about ahola then :) I would still put Novikov over Eddie Hall any day
Hall strongest man to ever live
@@jmoso3594 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@Tyler Vincent Yeah, forgot about Licis would also put him over Eddie
10:13 most strongmen today use mouth-guards to avoid hurting themselves when clenching during a life. Meanwhile Kaz bit in his own fucking tongue on purpose, he was truely a beast
Big Z is my favorite!
14:06 is that dave bautista back there?
Kaz should always be number 1 they literally barred him from competing for 4 years after winning 3 in a row.
Pudzianowski is holding record of most title wins so he is goat.
6:29 when the broccoli your mum made you eat doesn’t taste like McNugget at all
4 times great. 5 Times Impossible
Surprised you didn’t show Brian and big Z doing that sandbag Malay in the water. Brian would have his 5th and beaten big Z that day if the bag did not fall off the table when Brian beat big Z at that moment🤔
Big Z number 1!
damn malta
Where are they now? They still alive?
I think Eddie and Thor maybe shoulda swapped spots since Thor has more titles (coming from an Eddie fan)
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤💯👍🏻❤
My mom is worlds strongest man 2022. I love equality hahaha
Damn they went so far back I don't even see Mark felix performing
Somebody must have forgotten that Jon Pall won 4 titles
Big stoltman to b on this list in 5 year .with 3 titles
Esse é comentário em português que você menos esperava
Time for kieliszkowski to be number 1
WHY aren’t strongmen part of the summer Olympics?!
*I believe that Thor Bjornsson and Eddie Hall should’ve been higher on this list* (esp. given their personal records and other championship wins. I hope the Stoltman Brothers can soon be added to this list!
1. Big Z
2. Brian
3. Kazmaier
4. Eddie Hall
5. Pudz
6. Magnus🇮🇸
7. Magnus🇸🇪
8. Thor
9. Jon Pall
10. Honestly a toss up
Why is eddie hall ahead of Thor? No chance
Big Z
Shaw
Pudz
Magnus Ver
Kaz
Jon Pall
Jouko
Thor
Magnus S
Poundstone -
Hall is even close - he was great one year but only podiumed 2x, never won the arnold. so he was the best one year but his personality and you tube presence has made him a star (which he is funny as hell)
Big Z and Brian should be 1&2; Kaz and the three Icelanders should be after, then Eddie, the two time winner from Finland, Geoff Capes, and finally Pudzinowski
@Tyler Vincent, it's a good thing this is my list and not yours
@Tyler Vincent only 2 people have ever lifted 500kg and they both deserve to be on the list
@Tyler Vincent but he lifted it which is more than anyone but Thor can say. Thor had a way better lift but a lift is a lift no matter the struggle
To people who loves watching this where do you guys rank Mark Felix
I do think Bill would have been number 1 if the did allow him to keep competing
wheres LOUIS CYR?
The caption at 9:47 should be fixed "to take his 4th and last title" cheers.
All were great champions. Very hard to say definitively since kaz was robbed of competing in his prime after winning 3 in a row. Who knows he wins 2 or 3 more and john paul and capes end up with less wins and it changes the order. As it stands now though imo for everything accomplished and getting their wins and podium finishes cleanly i would have to go with Big Z and Brian Shaw is right on his tail. They competed against better competition, had more longevity, most top 3 finishes and to my knowledge no controversy or a victory completely fumbled to them like how Marius won against poundstone.
Respect to scandinavia
Big Z obviously
why no iron biby???
Becaise he doesnt belong here. He has literally 0 major title or anything. He only competes in shoulder events, wich hrantee, he os the best at, but it doesnt make you one of the best ever
I had a feeling it would be pudz or eddie in top place
Pudz for 5 titles and Eddie for his amazing strength (like his deadlift or shoulder strength)
Stop comparing Eddie to legends. Eddie only one single international competition
Eddie Hall was the first to rip 500kg off the floor. damn near killed himself doing it too. that seals him in my book
Who's the greatest strongman of all time. Put 3 points for 1st place, 2 points for 2nd and 1 point for 3rd and it becomes crystal clear.
It's not really close. No matter how you slice it your top 5 will be Big Z , Shaw, Pudzianowski, Jon Pall and Ver Mag. Kaz gets an exception into the top 5 because they wouldnt let him compete for years. Interesting that Tom Stoltman is already #17 and ahead of Hall who only has 4 points compared to Z s 24. If you combine Arnold's and WSM Z has 54 points, Shaw has 40 . Without ever having the advantage of competing in the Arnold's Jon Pall has 16 . Ver mag has 16. Pudzianowski , despite never making the podium at Arnold's has 19.
What is the criteria for 10 strongest ever tho, is it amount of titles won or weight lifted? Ppl getting in a tizzy cos someone's who's won more titles is ranked behind ppl that have less.. calm down guys lol.. it's just lifting weights, they're all phenomenal & put the rest of us to shame 🏋
The Greatest Strongman of All Times Was Samson Of The Bible!!!
Thi is about reality
Kazmaier is the greatest strongman ever followed by pudzianowski idk why he gets no credit ever he was a beast
Where is great Gama ??????
Kieliszkowski
My vote goes to mark felix😈
Thor
Follow Macau world news
Eddie had ridiculous strength at his peak but at the end of the day the man has one major international title against the 10 that Thor has. How tf can you put him ahead? It just seems biased, I respect both but surely consistently performing at the top is more important. Let's not forget Thor won 6 major titles in a row, that's domination. Not sure if that's ever been done. Also Z should be number one 💯
I would even put licis over Eddie. He has more international podiums
If you guys allowed kaz to compete at that time he would have easily won 6 titles and if Thor didn't retire from strongman easily would have won 4 to 5 titles and same for the Eddie if he didn't had any health issues easily he would have won 3 times
Lots of "ifs" there. The reality is that they didn't.
"would have"
Let's be honest here. Eddie only beat Thor ONCE in a competition and that was WSM2017. He could not have stepped up to Thor for years without being dangerously unhealthy.
@@LundeSite what, do you even know who kaz is ?
Eddie pushed his body beyond its limits with crazy doses of stuff. Recently he was talking to someone, who told him that 'gene treatment' might be available and Eddie said 'Let's do it'. He don't have naturally the genetics to be on such levels as people like Big Z. Yes, Eddie was the strongest man for 1 short moment in history and achieved amazing results, but his body can't sustain that shape.
Pudzianowski had it easy in his time. All the men who were at the top of the sport at the time were competing at the Arnold and couldn't compete at WSM.
He's a great athlete for sure, but he shouldn't be number one.
Big Z won 4 WSM titles during what is unarguably the hardest, most competitive and difficult era of the sport. Plus his innumerable victories in other competitions and world records prove he's the greatest Strongman ever.
Is that why Mariusz Pudzianowski is 3-1 against big z in WSM and beat Big z so badly in 03 that Pudzianowski broke the record for largest margin of victory?
Is that always why Pudzianowski is 3-0 against big z in European strongman?
And Pudzianowski is 16-1 against big z in strongman super series?
Big z barely beat Pudzianowski once when Pudzianowski had a torn arm and only a couple of weeks of training in 09 lol
You ever wondered why the split happened and big z ran away to go to that? Because Pudzianowski was to dominate. You ever wonder why Big z didn't comeback to WSM until Pudzianowski announced his retirement and going to mma? You ever wonder why Big z ran away from European and didn't come back until Pudzianowski was gone? None of this is a coincidence.
Big z doesn't get to be called the best when he got dominated for years in WSM, European, super series etc, then ran away and cameback to WSM, and European to finally win some once the guy who dominated him retires.
You can always count on the Eddie Hall mythophiles to represent
Big z is the greatest
Zudrunas is still the goat
Eddie hall has no business being on this list! You put him over Thor? Eddie's win was cheating and Thor should of won! Thor won't the Arnold how many times? How many guys have won once? Alot of them and he's number 7? Ya ummm no!
Why thor retired from competition?
To fight Eddie. $1 million vs 200-400k (I don’t know exact amount). Easy go box. Thor said he might returned to strongman
@@AlejandroSanchez-pl6jw thank you. That's sad that he and eddie retited from competition and now they want to fight for money (yes i know that eddie retired for healthy problems)
Dude all these guys retire for health problems Eddie is just the one saying it
