When Thor was at his peak, he was a specimen and unbeatable in strongman.
When he got on the right cycle at the right time. He got crushed by Shaw, Eddie and Zavickas for years and years. Brian Shaw is the strongest man to ever walk the Earth and his insane accomplishments prove it.
@@bartondean4260he was beaten for years, but no one matched his peak years of 2018-2020 in terms of overall strength. I’m not a big fan of his but I have to give credit where credit is due, but I do have a feeling Savickas and Shaw could have surpassed that level if they were as young as Thor and came in at the same time as him (cause of advancement in the sport), and if Eddie stayed in strongman for 3 more years his static lifts would be untouchable for quite some time
@@bartondean4260 Thor crushed Shaw, eddie and Z from 2018-2020.
Eddie never crushed Thor lol@@bartondean4260
There is no more debate on this. Brute strength, static lifts, functional strength, athleticism and overall well roundness, or any of the criteria or combination you take, peak Thor is the Strongest Man of all-time.
All Brian z and Eddie are stronger arguably or not
@@NSD-fp9qj Wrong.
@@aaronbarlow4376 literally jow
Eddie@@NSD-fp9qj 🤣🤣🤣 You must be joking
2018 Thor was something else on the planet, no weakness and consistently a threat. With his overall 5 wins back in 2018, he was a static monster. If his health could be on par with his great performance, I believe he would still competing big time from the last 3 years after his big 2020's deadlift.
Thor's 2019 Europe's Strongest Man was his comfortable win, just need to win 1 event and keep consistent on the top 3 for the rest of the comp. Just to prove once again Giants Live was his nice "playground"
Not the best overall static but all around he was great.
@@santiagosteven6105 He was statically the strongest as well. Name someone who can Deadlift 501 and Squat 460 and the best thing is both were not maximum efforts from him, and he could have done more. I still believe he will recover this year and towards the end of next year, break the powerlifting ATWR. Fingers crossed.
The more we watch Thor, the more we miss him. I'm closely following Thor's recovery from his socials and praying he will be back, stronger than ever! His surgeon really did a fantastic job. If we can set aside the animosity and have Thor back, it will be the best for the sport. A lot of people left the sport once he retired and as you rightly said, Thor in his prime is the Strongest Man to have EVER lived! It was such an electrifying experience (specially for an iron addict) to see him live. The sport has never been the same despite so many new faces and marketing wizardry from all the strongman bodies combined.
Colin, Darren, why don't you fly to Iceland and meet him? Thor is a kind person and in my opinion, you should take the initiative on this.
He'll never pump himself up to 400 plus again so none of that will happen.
@@bartondean4260and now 🤔?
*He's the most overlooked competitor and that can unfortunately be accredited to his acting fame and the shadow it cast on his career as a professional athlete. His wins and records weren't talked about much in the sport's media up until the last 2 or 3 years. It's not been very long.*
I do think as time goes on and the sports fame and popularity grows, his chapter in it's history book will become a popular reference amongst fans and professionals.
The whole sport is overlooked. Within the sport, Hafthor is considered one of the all time greats so I don't know what you are on about.
@@dango9786 that means shit in terms of the people watching. I doubt fans of strongman can name 10 current athletes off the top of their head. It does not have the promotion and presence through broadcast media and support in consumer products that you will see in stores.
They are reliant on almost exclusively promotion online. Thor is extremely well known amongst fans of Game of Thrones but his athletic career is a side note amongst them and many aren't even that aware. His record is one of the most impressive but it's not often talked about on Discord and other social media.
Hell yea!! Colin, Darren, and the team are killing it!
Giants live trying hard to rekindle that relationship with Thor now his comeback is imminent
It will probably take some time before we see him back in comp id imagine
I’m just happy to see more full shows
Giants Live - the grassy nole of Strongman!
@Giants Live STRONGMAN Haha this comment is gold right here
He’s an awesome guy. He just made a few mistakes. He’s only human! I still enjoy watching him. I love Eddie as well.
couldnt move on the video watching the girl behind doing triceps without a single knowledge of how it has to be done haha
It's really not that bad. She has an idea of what she is doing, just not quite there on form.
Anyone know how long a Giants live show is?
Strongest ever
*One of the
@santiagosteven6105 no one can beat 2019 Thor
Danny is hilarious! 🤣
this was so easy for Thor ,like stealing candy from a baby, i love how he didn’t even bother for the last 2 stones 😂😂😂
Man, I miss this Mateusz.
How humbling for Luke and Tom stoltman. Thor slipped over in the anchor, and still beat them.
So Colin/Darren (or whoever’s operating the page). Do you think we’ll ever see Thor back at a Giants Live in some capacity? I think all the real fans would love to see the relationship mended.
Its up to thor if he wants to come.
Strongest man to ever walk the 🌎 is Big Z
Colin looking like Vince McMahon at the start.
Oh This is 3 or 4 years ago....
I'm the legend in the making 🕊️🤍🕊️🤍
If Larry worked on his technique in the log press he would’ve gotten that lift. He didn’t even use his legs lol
Did he not just have major surgery ???
MANTAGE!!!
Lol thor came crawling back
Hafthor Bjornsson is The Strongest Whinging Man ever. Yeah!
So after major surgery.
Your strongest ever.
That would indicate a full healing recovery.
Ok Thor keep pushing forward.
Crush it onward.
Big Z had major surgery early on his career 😉
The STRONGEST CRYBABY and COMPLAIN BABY
why post this now?
Better late than never.
Why not? Damned if we do damned if we don't😂
@@GiantsLiveSTRONGMANkeep it up please 🙏🏽
@Giants Live STRONGMAN Ignore them, keep it up boys!
Big Z or Marius pudginowski, are the kings. Hapthor is a Diva, by comparison.
He was never the strongest ever. Big Z was way more powerful
Was looking to equal Pudzianowski's 5 titles? Lol, Mariusz won it 6 times, which is still the record.
@@rugbyfan808 Let's count them: 2002, 2003, 2004, 2007, 2008, 2009. How many does that make?
@@rugbyfan808 He won Europe's 6 times, World's 5.
@@rugbyfan808 Yes he did. Radzikowski was runner up.
@@damiensmith9240 he was Disqualified from 04, he only came third anyway, but then was DQ'd after testing positive for PED's
@@jordancornell9364 This post is about ESM, not WSM.
No 👎🏻 😂
Plenty of guys stronger 💪 and more athletic that thor even at his peak... don't make me start dropping names
2018-2020 Thor is the Strongest man ever.
Everybody lost their respect for him after 2017. He acted like a child. He really embarrassed past Icelandic greats. Sad really.
What exactly did he do, that made you lose respect for him??
Because getting angry that you lost a competition is normal and happens to everyone. I can point too a dozen incidents of Eddie, Brian, and many other getting angry and being a$$holes for losing or not getting a lift, it happens in sporting comps.
@@benji3008 this^
🥱 yawn. Another one who's bought into Eddie's BS. Wonder what you think about Shaw? The guy said the Arnold was rigged for Zydrunas.
@@joshbrooker5819 people really forget about that post alot lol
@@lonestar2495 Shaw is actually an @sshole. He said that about Zydrunas plenty of times, he did hate Zydrunas. People just don't notice that because A) you have to be good at reading subtext, which most people are not. B) Shaw is calmly speaking and quite inteligent, so he knows how to mask his arrogance with easy, calm words. But yeah, he's an @ss. A few people will tell you that.
