      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.

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.

    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 ;)

    • @themonsterunderyourbed9408
      @themonsterunderyourbed9408 Год назад

      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.

    • @Arafaer
      @Arafaer Год назад +3

      @@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.

    Thor was holding the keg vertically while Zydrunas was holding it horizontally.i guess it would affect the distance the keg was thrown.

      Any throwing competition would be an advantage for Thor bcoz he has a height advantage.
      It gives him less height to throw vertical and more parabola to throw horizontal....
      I think to match heights they should make a platform for short highted men to even out heights...
      Even in the first refrigerator lift challenge, thor has the advantage bcoz the fridge lifts up more from the ground making less possible for it to drag.
      For the other guy the fridge touched the floor and caught it and he stopped bcoz of the weight.

      The height matters.. Im glad that all of these 8 strength challenges , 4 is in favor Tall and 4 is in favor for short .
      Thats why they both achieve 4:4
