That was humbling. Like this comment if you want me to learn more BJJ! I’ve rolled few times with my buddies before at my gym and once with Gunnar Nelson. So my experience is very little 😅
For sure.
Me next!
Arnolds, Worlds, Strongman Champions League, Rogue Invitational, Shaw Classic + Powerlifting total world record! 🦾
I agree with Gordon Ryan, if you learn BJJ it will be scary asf, just imagine being able to utilize all your strength in BJJ technique. AMAZING.
thor if you do train BJJ to compete keep in mind guys will try to attack your legs (kneebars etc) because it will be the easiest way to get a finish. those can alter and damage your career in a second so train lots of leg defense.
Thor putting himself out there against the king is admirable, humbling yourself consistently is a great thing to do for yourself mentally and Thor gets it.
@@ondine9997 his whole life does numbers bro, stop being so negative.
@@ondine9997 you could make videos of your own if your jelous
@@monkoko6441 hahahha
I was a huge hater of Thor, he's done some fairly shitty things competition-wise. That being said, ever since the boxing match he showed a lot of maturity and seems to have really matured as a person. I'm def warming up and have huge respect for him doing this video.
@@lephtovermeet he was taking a lot of drugs at strongman time, that will make anyone act like kind of a douche, especially a worlds strongest man on lots of steroids that are known to cause inflated egos lol. So yes I agree, he’s a more calm and healthy version now
I love how Gordon is a beast of a man at 225lbs lean, yet he still looks small in comparison to Thor.
6’2 and 220 pounds isn’t very big. There are way bigger bouncers out there like 6’6 300 fit that make Gordon look small. I just don’t think you have actually seen and been around actual big dudes before
@@cooltron it's massive dude. I'm not talking about roided out bouncers. I think physiques on social media has skewed your idea of what is considered big.
@@pietpadda593 You can’t seriously be talking about roided bouncers when you’re talking about roided out Gordon.
@@cooltron i doubt he abuses PEDs for size. He might have used some for enhanced recovery and performance increases during off season Training. The idea that he's on any cycle remotely close to elite bodybuilders is absurd.
@@pietpadda593 The fact that the entire bjj community knows he’s on PEDs and you don’t is laughable
Imagine having so little ego that you step out of your world where you’re a god and into someone else’s as a complete new guy. Thor is truly a great man and I am humbled by him. A complete class act.
he had ego it just got crushed again and again when a 200lbs boxer beat him and gunnar nelson at 190lbs subbed him twice. U kinda have to be humbled by this.
Now yuo see.. how a gamer feels whn forced to school…
Much easier to not have ego going into something new if you are already really good at something else.
It's about the likes, genius.
Like Jordan playing baseball.
When a world champion says it should be forbidden for you to learn their art, then you know you are a genetic monster. Imagine a man like this become proficient in any martial arts! I love that Bjornsson is willing to attempt different sports! Incredible! I do, however, hope to see him return into strength related competitions soon. He has so much potential!
I was way more impressed with martins TBH. Im absolutely positive martins has more natural coordination, explosivity, and core strength then thor. He just knows how to use his entire body. Thors ridiculous too but martins would seriously fold black belts as a blue belt. MAYBE not world class BB's but hed crush people.
@@mikimiyazaki Just his body type(Build) like a dwarf with insane center of gravity but still 190cm height is perfect for grappling while as we´ve seen Þór is better built for boxing or MMA combat wise at least
Yea it should be forbidden for Thor to learn MMA except for match with Conor McGregor 🥹🙏🏽, to the death please !
Thor can Box that is enough mate 🤣 no average man knows enough bjj or wrestling to overcome thors size and then also a wild thor swinging at you will keep you at distance before you get even half a shot at a takedown so eh, thors fine arts wise 😅😅😅
@@rexandcompany3933 Doesn’t Martins also have a wrestling background? I imagine that translates very well.
I agree with Gordon Ryan, if Thor learns BJJ it will be scary asf, just imagine him being able to utilize all his strength in BJJ technique. AMAZING.
Funny though how fight "experts" always claim size don't mean a thing
@@Lee-ic2yn it doesnt when the difference is like 10kg xD, but when you add 100kg of muscle its a different story xD
He doesn't need jewjeetsew. He can literally crush him, slam him or do whatever he wants. There's a reason there are categories in every sport.
@@alexzan1858 Every kilo matters. 10 kilos is already a big difference.
@@PauIdenino If thor learned BJJ to a strong level he would no longer be the same size or as strong though. U cant have ur cake and eat it basically. He would most likely drop another 40lbs on top of the 100lbs he already dropped for boxing lol. Still a big huge man at 300lbs but gordon ragdolls 280lb black belts.
Mad respect for rolling with Gordon Ryan like this and being so receptive to the whole experience. It shines through that you were there to learn and explore something, which I think is important for everyone to be open to regardless of who they are. And the idea for this video is just fucking awesome. Would be wild if you did more grappling like others have said too.
Gordon is the man, rolling with these two the day before a match is madness.
imagine how weak his opponent will feel after these two monsters haha, Thor could break your back if he hugged too hard haha.
@@negativezero3107 wouldn’t make it any easier since his opponents are highly skilled as well
@@negativezero3107 any1 facing gordon ryan can roll with thor... Those guys live 4 that shii...Gordon is khabib*1000
This is indeed great exposure Hafthor! Your MO of trying new and different things by going out of your comfort zone is a great way to develop yourself as a human being...
Shut up nermal 😆
You are everywhere lol I see you on his insta comment section and now you are on CZcams
@@Lee-ic2yn Why so pressed?
Thank you for posting this. A firefighter came on my podcast and shared about why this clip is important for people like him… he said a lot of the guys at his fire department don’t wanna get humbled because it’s a very macho environment… he hoped clips like this will help get more men into BJJ training because a lot of people look up to the Mountain as an example of masculinity.
It’s important to show that it’s ok to be humbled. It’s normal if you’re going martial arts :)
It's ok to be submitted in bjj, it's not ok to be burned. So I'm with the fire fighters in that department.
Totally agree! I've been training BJJ for almost 2 years now and recently started taking intro to the fire service classes.
Everyone is always wrestling with eachother when not training and I humbled a few of them😭
This should have been a longer video, so interesting too see a guy like Thor do things like this. Please do more of this!
Much love to Hafthor... always will be an inspiration for many out there.
You are the best brother. We know you give your everything in whatever you do. Having said that, we all would love to see you breaking the Powerlifting total world record and win more Strongman titles like Arnolds, Worlds, Strongman Champions League, Rogue Invitational, Shaw Classic etc...
that life is hard, the steroids the health problems, not worth it, he's too tall he would die in his 50s, hope Shaw won't.
@@Brukner841 Bruh
The fact Gordon can flip Thor like that is incredible. Two legends appreciating eachother 👏
Edit: "Swept" being the term I'm looking for?😅 (not a BJJ expert)
Yes, swept
Gordon is a phenomenal grappler! Well done for trying against him 👏🏼
I was genuinely nervous watching Martinz & Thor facing off, really. And the way Gordon performed was insane, scary impressive.
Great episode brother! With some practice rolling you could be a force to be reckoned with, you definitely you have the body type.
imagine how terrifying it would be to face thor in a bjj match lol.
Thor does not have a body type, he just has a body. there's no other bodies like his lmao
@@david7384 Thank you for your comment, I'm sorry you don't see it the way I do. Happy Holidays!

My heart XD
Always good to learn new skills. Watching Thor and Martins spar reminded me of watching two Grizzly Bears fight.
The music was epic anyone know the song at 5:15? And als it's crazy how much technique plays a role that he can just turn around the pin vs such a giant
Did you find the music?
I'm also looking for this music :(
Great video Thor, surprised by you're flexibility , with all the power lifting training you did great , I could imagine six months training you would be a monster and challenging for titles.
I think you’d be surprised
If you can put 30% of your boxing effort into your jiu jiutsu, that would be really fun to watch.
Training once or twice a week, in 4 months you would be literally animal.
Same thing watching Shaquille O'Neal rolls.
Thor as a blue belt would mean serious trouble to most BJJ players
@@Hhhlll7778 Thor as a blue belt takes 99% of black belts for real, he is soo huge en strong
@@charizard6969 Most likely
@@charizard6969 99% is a stretch mate, blue belt with no wrestling background is not much
@@charizard6969 No cause different styles in bjj exist and he would get destroyed by guys using leglocks. He is at a big disadvantage with such long legs and big feet if only a blue belt lol
The fight at the end looked like two polar bears attempting to mate... ha ha just kidding. Please don't kill me.
It's so crazy, Gordon is already a monster of a human being at 6'2" 220ish pounds and Thor makes him look tiny.
6’2 220 isn’t a “monster” lol 😂
@@BradPwnsU Yes, it is. Just because we're used to seeing 230+ pound heavyweights doesn't mean that Gordon isn't a monster at his size. Have you actually used your eyes to look at him before? Dude is swole af.
@@grahamvandyke average American man is around 200lbs. That’s only 20lbs more lol. 6’2 is kind of tall but not crazy. I’d say 6’5+ and 285lbs+ is “monster” territory.
@@BradPwnsU The average American man is 200 pounds of fat and lard.
@@BradPwnsU Average American man is 5'9 200lb* otherwise known as fatasses. BMI and bodyfat percentage makes the difference. Gordon is sub 10% body fat. If he was closer to the average American Male's BMI, he'd be well over 250lb
If Hafthor did learn some technique he'd be unstoppable. He would single handedly start a second Viking Age.
@@trekker7530 gordan said it too mate
@@trekker7530 thor didn't train boxing for years and he never even showed any numbers of how hard he could punch. Eddie litterly got close to francis punch with only a couple of months of training.
@@trekker7530u really expect a 400lbs+ guy to move fast?
@@hugo-pg5tv He being nice. Thor to be any good would further lose more size and strength. He is already 100lbs down from his strongman days just trying to do boxing. To do BJJ to a decent level he would end up losing another 40lbs and now he is just 300lbs. Still huge still strong but top level guys manhandle 280lb black belts lol He would pose issues for hobbyist but not COMPETITIVE belts. He is easy to heel hook. The guys here are Playing around with thor, If they wanted they could destroy him with leglocks in 10 sec
@@trekker7530 You clearly don't know what you're talking about but you think you do. Dunning Kruger effect in action.
This video Collab rules !
As a fan of MMA / UFC & BB / PL , this is a killer union with Gordon and Martins .
Also shout out to the audio sound bites on background ! Fitted well 💪😎
Signing up to roll with my kids in the spring at the local gym. Loved martial arts as a child and want this type of atmosphere for them as well. Thank you for showing us a peek at your journey. :)
the fact that gordon, who is generally quite big compared to the average person, looks so small between those two is insane
Gordon Ryan is such a tank but looks like a normal guy next to Thor.
very cool, gives me a little motivation to try. Been procrastinating about learning for years now. So cool to see how he can control someone so much bigger. Even when it took you down, he did it gently with full control. Crazy.
Iv always said to people that if you have any slight interest than just go to a class and give it a go. You don't have to go again, no strings attached. I will also say that if you are any way intrigued I believe you'll love it like I do.
I was intrigued 15 years ago in college, but started bjj just 4 years ago. If I had taken one bjj class back while in college, I would have been hooked, and would be a black belt by now. Don't wait!
@@atrowell better late than never. You could have been one of those people who always wanted to go but never did. So kudos 👏 enjoy the journey

It’s honestly insane how well Ryan is able to use his strength and body to leverage positions. Like the strongest man on the planet could not push him off or even move for that matter
No hold barred, i would take Martins or Thor everytime. Sparring they lose but when push comes to shove, they will brute force a victory.
@@MrSnakekaplan No chance in hell. Gordon was taking it easy on them, while they were maxing out on effort. Yeah a lucky punch could change the outcome but theyre not MMA fighters either. Gordon doesnt even have to go for any subs, just control until theyre too exhausted to move which wouldnt take long
@rykehuss3435 that's why I said he wins sparring. "No holds barred" they will drive heads through concrete.
You see so many dumb videos of bodybuilders thinking they're hot shit, but this is not the same.
@@MrSnakekaplan eh i dunno, in real fight you just kinda forget everything and you wont think at all. brute force could only get you so far, maybe 30 seconds and you'd be out of breath like a fish out of water.
@Rexxar582 Most fights are over just that quick. In my jujitsu experience size...(significant size) does overcome skill. As I said, I'm not talking about bodybuilders.
Werdum vs Volkov is an example of top level bjj not been able to overcome the size. Obviously Thor/Martin's have no skill but their size/strength difference is vastly larger than that example.
Gordon wins sparring, but I think most people who have spent a few years training would favor Thor/Martin's in a fight. You have to remember sport bjj has strict rules that actually make it unrealistic. Skill diminishes when you get your head bounced off the floor.
None of this is an insult to Gordon. Unfortunately most people are believe absolutes, they skill always wins or instagram muscles overcome all.
great show as always thor love the effort you put in this session keep it up love to see more JJ with these guys
Let talk I've something for you 👆👆
No way he's got a chance with such a big guy on top.. oh wait, nevermind.
Badass!
Huge fan from the states!
This is amazing.
Two of my favorite humans on earth collaborating.
Awesome!!
That is so cool to be that powerful and humble at the same time. I recently earned my first stripe as an absolute beginner, and I’m so proud of my accomplishment and ready to keep working, learning, and getting as good as I’m willing to work.
Holy shit... this is epic. Love the great value shown by two epic teams of people coming together to show their art. Awesome production value.
It's really interesting how staying relaxed with intense burst is a skill in jiu - jitsu as it is in boxing and I imagine strong man competition as well.
It's amazing that Gordon could roll with Thor and Martins and not be the one that is out of breath afterward. The guy is a supreme ninja. Thor and Martins jumped right in and gave it a go at the very top level, WOW!!!!
Jiu - Jitsu and Wrestling are the ultimate arts of body chess. What appears to be a pure test of strength is actually a game of chess.
There is another secret skill that can't be developed and that is double joints. I've seen experienced jiu - jitsu practitioners that could not submit a novice because he had them.
The friendship you and Martins have with each other is the most impressive of all. The way you can compete so hard and be happy for each other's victories is a joy to behold.
I have a blue belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu & competed in the Super Hvy. weight class a lot prior to covid-19 it's a slow learning process that keeps you humble...anyways I couldn't imagine not being a BJJ practitioner & facing off with Gordon Ryan he's one of the best of all time & an absolute machine...I know he'd wreck me at my best.
and it look like he bearly won, so yea when people think how strong you are dont matter.
gordon is one of the best in the world, so yea with no trainig thor could beat your average black belt.
@@az21bob666 I was in the local gym lifting 3-4 days a week because I knew getting stronger would help in a lot of situations where I was lacking in technical skill...usually it was the smaller guys that would say strength doesn't matter...I'm 6'3" & was around 250lbs. at the time most my training group were as large or larger & all lifted regularly a few did strongman & power lifting body building ect. so others knew being strong is an asset in anything.
@@az21bob666 that is delusional. Thor would get choked out vs an "average" black belt. It would not be easy for a blackbelt because of his unusual size but to downplay how extreme the difference is between someone with no training and all the technical skill vs a complete novice is naive to say the least. Unless you have done jiu-jitsu you likely can't know how it feels. You likely don't know how truly vulnerable an untrained person is, regardless of size, against a blackbelt. It's the equivalent to speaking a foreign language you have never spoken.
you are a fool, this guy was one of the BEST in the world, and he COULD not beat him, he coudl no chock hijm out,
thor ran out of gas,
so no the average black blet has no chance. EVEN this guy said how hard it was to go agaist him, and he one of hte best in the world.
and YES i have done plentry of jiu-jitsu and if very hard if there a difference in how strong someone is.
Attention!!! Hell is real!!! Where will you go when you die??? If the rapture took place today, would you be left behind??? Jesus loves you and He died for your sins.

5:05 It's like watching a big Buffalo being slowly brought down by a Lion, then suffocated and eaten.
Thor is awesome! It's great to see him diving into all of these other strength sports since he has so much potential for them and clearly a lot of love when it comes to competing/learning.

Great Eueopean fighting, LOVED EVERY MOMENT!
11:00 this is what Gordon sees when he takes his glasses off
I swear Thor seems like the kinda guy you could sit in your backyard, bbq and have a beer with.
Yeah that description could be applied to anyone
really great content thor this was an amazing collab. if you trained JJ seriously you'd do extremely well.
Just imagining how powerful either the strongman would be in certain positions with really sharp technique
Ushiro goshi, basic judo , one of my favorite throws, y’all’s newaza is awesome
gordon ryan was gassed though lmao
So cool to see Gordon breaking things down in a understandable way. And by saying even he, who’s no small dude himself, was somewhat intimidated by the power these guys have is scary. This was excellent.
This is like seeing my 2 favorite worlds coliding❤❤ really love this content!
Let's talk 👆I have something for you🎁🎁^^^^^^^^^!!
03:29 That's just incredible right there. Being able to flip that monster of a man off you from, what, full side control, ain't it? Wow.
Alternate Title: Human Boa Constrictor manhandles Walking Mountain
That's a cool suggestion! 🙂
Thor back to strongman please!! WSM 2023.
I gotta see Gordon in mma. I need to see how he’d incorporate his master jiu-jitsu with punches/elbows and kicks/knees coming at him. To see his thought process in breaking down the attacks against him. I imagine he’d be like Royce Gracie with the throwing of rabbit punches and kicks to set up submissions.
that last round was like Kratos VS Thor jiu jitsu style
What most people don’t realize is Gordon Ryan is 225, but he’s also 6’2”. He’s a big dude in his own right, but looks small next to Thor.
This was wild. Seeing Thor getting ragdolled like a normal human was a sight to behold, haha. Also, the music that plays when they are grappling is amazing. I love it.
Major props for getting in there Thor. You know that you have a strength advantage but were definitely aware of the skill gap and still put on a show for us viewers.
As others have said, you learning about 6 months of technique would be enough to be very scary for the open weight division.
6 months not enough to build the cardio needed
Idk about 6 months, more like 3-5 years, Gordon is playing lightly with him here and so is Thor, it’s the day before he competes. In actuality one of his limbs would be isolated very fast and he’d be brought to submission
The man’s a monster with no ego wow. Didn’t know anythin about him other than he’s worlds strongest man but he’s actually super chill too I love that
My first time trying jiu jitsu I was a 6’1 180lbs lifter with low body fat. I went against a skinnier dude who was maybe 5’5 and missing his left arm. I got tapped out 3 times in a row and he made it seem like he wasn’t even trying. From that day forward I was hooked.
Gordon is a savage. BJJ scares the crap out of me for the injury potential, so i don't think i'd ever try it, but it's super interesting to watch.
You can learn safely, and even drill/spar safely. Its in competition or rolling with assholes where its dangerous.
Do yourself a favor and try it. Most schools don't allow sparring in the first 3 months. It's impossible to hurt yourself drilling, unless you are trying to.
Check programs like Bulletproof for BJJ and you can get your body ready in few months to face bjj with much much reduced for potentional injurie . Problem is when people that have no flexibility or strength in proper places go head first in bjj . Get better then , go to Gi BJJ for start only and be carefull which gym u use and you will be fine . It is worth it , nothing in sports is more fun
Agree. Nervous being new and getting hurt.
BJJ is actually relatively safe for injuries, in my experience and when compared to other martial arts. I did it for years and never had a serious injury from it. I've had way more joint injuries from striking martial arts.
Technic and skills does go a long way
In agreeance as well. If yall learn any form of grappling arts, it will be terrifying. As much as it will be amusing.
I like how martin licis is just randomly there and all comment is not acknowledging his existence
And next week Eddie Hall announces he's getting into Jiu-jitsu. 😆
Eddie has gotten way too round to be submitted.
eddie could submitt with just his farts
Imagine you're wrestling Hafthor and you literally just throw him into the air lol
The guy at the end is bigger than hafthor
The spear moves were flashy, but apparently some BJJ training could of turned that whole duel around for the Red Viper.
i love the viking music
It’s interesting, Thor doesn’t use his hands just his arms, that would change a lot
Thor as a black belt would be like a trying to stop a freight train. Scary
Thor, I really do think you should try and do more rolling and MMA stuff.
You could be a nasty, nasty grappler. You have been doing it your whole life. Just with objects, not people. If you learn body mechanics, your explosive power as one of the World's Strongest Men. Would be an amazing, amazing sight. To add to your already huge amounts of accolades!
That would be insane for someone your size to be also a great Jiu-Jitsu artist. That would be an imbalance in the universe lol
It already exists........Its called Roger Gracie.
It would be amazing if you trained jujitsu! The way you invested yourself into boxing and developed great skills, I believe you’d do well. Strongman, power lifter, boxer and potentially BJJ practitioner would be awesome.
Now he only needs to learn Muay Thai and wrestling and he'd be a human weapon.
Scary
It’s hilarious how small Gorden looks next to you. And he’s not small at all.
I feel like we were made to grab. Look at these hands we have!
It’s incredibly hard to be as big as Hafthor and have the cardio required for BJJ. So much mass for your heart to pump blood to when exerting yourself the way BJJ requires.
Mad props to Thor. And I agree, guys your size should not be allowed to learn the secret science of BJJ. It would be insane to see it.
Not really, because you also need much less of your strength in every move.
@@MrCmon113 you clearly dont do BJJ then lol, Because once you perfect a technique it requires very little to accomplish it if its correct.
Nice!
Love to see these 2 athletes. Both were respecting each other.. that's sports made for
You've got to appreciate legends like Thor going out into different fields/sports to test it out whilst being humble about it.

It is amazing how gentle and mindful of other people's health strongman are when grappling. Both Thor with Ryan and Brian with Dustin for example didn't use brute strength and focused on strictly learning techniques.
Gained huge respect for this man also when he fought Devon larrett as an actual exhibition fight instead of just trying to hurt him.
Absolutely love this content man. So cool to see you meeting with other elites in various sports and trying your hand. You are an inspiration sir!
Pretty sure if Thor learned BJJ for a year, he could kill Gordon.
Probably not
No way
🔥🔥🔥
I was tensing & squeezing & grimacing like I was Thor being grappled by Gordon - superb clip!
the music when they were wrestling on the mat reminds me of witcher 3
Jiu Jitsu was originally designed to stifle grounded opponents in heavy armor, you see all of those original bespoke elements of the style at play here in full
Jujutsu was meant for throwing, not grappling on the ground. Samurai in the field would be killed if they messed about on the ground. They had to throw their opponent, kill them with a weapon, then move to the next.
@@JohnDoe-pt7ru , Originally designed around throwing, tripping etc. then grappling on the ground with either your own tanto short blade or unsheathing your opponent's and exploiting small gaps in his armor after flooring them. It started as a close quarters form of knife fighting and grew into a system more focused around empty handed grappling techniques and judo. On the ground and scrambling is where many armed combatants ended up, intentionally or unintentionally, Jiu Jitsu was indeed designed to address this hard fact of reality. I'm not at all saying that two spearmen or swordsmen were looking to implement any form of ground combat as their first option, but on the ground and scrambling favored those who were well versed in it as we even see play out in modern competition based combat today, and even in this very video.
Why speak on something you don't know about?
LOL, read it in a book, watched this video, made an observation, then commented in the section marked comments is why. Any more questions?

I wonder how thor would do against a master from lower weight classes
Like at one point does weight difference nullify jui jitsu
wtf that grey-haired jiu-jitsu guy is only 27 years old? legit thought he was 40+.. also apparently he put on 69 pounds (32 kg) of weight in just 18 months.
He dyed his hair white LMAO, naturally he has black brown hair
You can see Hafthor worried about landing on Gordon.
That was fantastic. Thor and Martins should both take some Ju-Jitsu classes and have a run at the super heavyweight circuit.
Beyond the transitions and how beautiful jiujitsu looks, part of its beauty lies in the fact that it is probably the only martial art/contact sport, where really the weight or size of the person is not as important as having good technique and skills to subdue the enemy.
