Thor seems like a down to earth guy. That's great you Gave your coach a compliment on camera, alot of people don't do that. Great inspiration. Best of luck in your competition
Love to see you train both sides in the circus dumbbell press. A rare thing to see. Gives you twice as many shoulders to work with in competition 👍👍👍 STRONG! Go win. Stay safe 👍👍👍
Sir Hafthor you inspired someone who never had the courage to step inside a gym to start workout. You are my hero of my life Sir. Flew all the way from Egypt to come and see you win the greatest show on earth. All the best, give them hell!
@@shake4259 could be. But I always thought its because the country is small and has not as much influence from outside, genetically speaking. Iceland still is really isolated, both geographically and genetically speaking.
I personally don’t care if you posted a video of you struggling to lift we are in to different sports and I still find you inspirational all the way around
Best of luck Hafthor. Lookin' STRONG AF. Rootin' for you BIG man. Podium predictions, from what I've seen thus far... 1. Hafthor 2. Mitch Hooper 3. Tom Stoltman I believe it will be a tight race. SMOE has A LOT of heavy hitters. Gonna be fun to watch. But these are my top 3. In THAT order. 💪💪💪
Dear Hafthor, with this last super intense training session, we saw week after week, how much you poured your heart and soul to this goal. I 100% believe in you and the team. Koma Svo *Ljónið* Hafthor Julius Bjornsson! Go get what is yours! 💪🏻👑❤️
Big wide dude out benches prime Thor, and yet the log becomes way more difficult, really puts things into prespective. Big props to him though, powerful man. And Go Thor!
The Mountain's back baby! Best of luck at SMOE. My call is you, Hooper, then Stoltman. Also, I've been saying Smoe as a word too, so you're not the only weird one. And also-also, props to one of the best coaches in the game.
LoL, I met Sebastian(Great guy) some years back and and I was slighty shorter then him and and lot less muscle, seeing him next to Haftor really sets things in perspective 🤣🤣.
If only hafthor can get as much “damage control” on the press medley and dumbbell as possible, I think if he’s having a good day he can win nearly all the other events
Great 1st Day at SMOE for Thor. Breaks the Keg toss for height WR. Three points behind Hooper currently, and those two are way ahead of everyone else. Go Thor!!
Hope you do well Hafthor. SMOE looks like a great event in that it seems to be run for and by the athletes and in this case a former one - Brian himself. Something not others sports have. Hopefully you can do a lot of detailed footage of the event to show it in its totality as there seems to be a lot of interest for it
Tomorrow, Magnus is also cheering for Hafthor, just like he did at 2017 ESM. Btw, did you see the Squat Setup? Looks like Brian and the team has dialed it in?
@@Nirsterkur nice to hear Magnus is a fan of Thor aswell! Together wiking strong 😎 Yes i have seen the youtube videos of the squatmachine! Looks awesome but i think it may be a little unstable and ”wiggely”. What do you think?
@@mickett Not the biggest fan of it. Always opted a good old school Barbell squat, but I think with the implementation of pressure plate, foot placement rules and depth rules, this will truly find out who the strongest squatter is. Feeling optimistic. Let's see.
This guy is probably bigger than me or my size and it looks hilarious working out with you guys, trainers not that big, guy in the lakers jersey is big behind him
Its going to be good this competition. Put aside the other capable strongman they say Shaw Classic will be between you, Tom and Mitch. You're overhead press is you're weakness here. Tom's squat is his weakness here. Mitch's stones is his weakness.
Most gyms i have been to dosen't have more then 100 Ibs / 45 kg dumbells. And have never seen anyone train with them either. Thor just knocks 150 Ibs out of the park x)
Go out and get that SMOE title and monetize it like a boss so we can eliminate the need for WSM. I’ll be watching this weekend. Thanks for the content and access to your coach and his thoughts along the way.
It’s disheartening to see Thor have to exert a considerable amount of effort with what used to be a relative warmup weight for him. I recognize the judges and the history books don’t care about injuries but I know for a fact that Thor wins both Arnold strongman competitions and the Shaw classic 2024 if not for his prior injury which has devastated his overhead pressing and dumbbell pressing power.
STrongman is awesome. but that sport is sooo expensive to train, and finding a gym is impossible. Share the wealth/experience boys this sport gonna die.
We all are with you King! I know for a fact that you will give it your best effort. You got this!
Simply the greatest and strongest human EVERRRR! 💪🏻 Bass has done it again gotten Thor prepped and injury free....
Just arrived in Denver! Let's go Thor, here's support from Germany.
God bless you son Hafthor Julius!
Show them who the king is boss! Hoping to shake your hand after you win.
You got this big man.
PPV purchased and projectors are ready to witness greatness in big screen! All the best Thor!
Good Luck at SMOE! Rooting for you to take it home!
HUGE! You got this Thor! Let’s go big dog! SMOE is gonna be awesome. Hooper, Stoltman, and the fkn Mountain! Awesome!
Thor seems like a down to earth guy. That's great you Gave your coach a compliment on camera, alot of people don't do that. Great inspiration. Best of luck in your competition

STRONG! Go win. Stay safe 👍👍👍
For real. That's one thing that made Poundstone often the leader in that event, he could use both shoulders so fatigue wouldn't set in as quickly.
Curious as to why he goes heavier with the left, is his left shoulder stronger?
@@wrongshrub2759 Yes, he is left handed, it is stronger
You're pressing is improving heaps, Thor !! Awesome !! So humble !! You deserve everything !! Go get um ❤
We rooting for you Haftor!
Sir Hafthor you inspired someone who never had the courage to step inside a gym to start workout. You are my hero of my life Sir. Flew all the way from Egypt to come and see you win the greatest show on earth. All the best, give them hell!
Thors so huge I half expected him to say "Im here with my Australian son ... Sebastian Bjornsson"
😂
Would be "Hafthorsson" tho
@@ItsNikoHIMselfis this why Iceland has that app to tell if you're related?
@@shake4259 could be.

Even if you admit to using STEROIDS, you still have FAKE muscles and FAKE strength!
Stay natural buddy!
Thank you and hope you win💪✌️
All the best Haffi! Love you so much! XOXO
Get pumped Thor! Always great to see you compete 🤙
Thor king of the Vikings goes into battle for the smoe title ,let's go Viking and bring it home.
Good luck big man, i root for you. Cheers from Denmark
Can't wait to see you on the podium, Haftor!
You got this. Wishing you the best in the comp
Thank the gods he is a kind person
Best of luck GOAT!! We are rooting for you!!
This will be the first PPV I've purchased for Strongman. Well worth it.
Good luck Hafthor!!
I expect by the time Rogue Invitational rolls around you'll be repping the 80kg dumbbells for sets of 10+.
Good luck 👍🏻
Heavy contest and strong opponents, let's go 💪🏻
Time to become the greatest of all time! All the best King Hafthor!
Hafthor is gona "SMOK-E" it at SMOE
Simply as, you are a beast 💪
sessions like these without background-music are sublime, i wish all youtubers did that
Hope you have a good trip to the USA 🇺🇸 wish I was closer to Colorado so I could meet you. Good luck man you are a fucking beast!
Best of luck Hafthor. Lookin' STRONG AF. Rootin' for you BIG man. Podium predictions, from what I've seen thus far...
1. Hafthor
2. Mitch Hooper
3. Tom Stoltman
I believe it will be a tight race. SMOE has A LOT of heavy hitters. Gonna be fun to watch. But these are my top 3. In THAT order. 💪💪💪
Only hours away now. Best of luck, I think you're gonna smash it.

Good luck, Hafthor! Show us that you are worthy of all these amazing comments.
Show them the power of Thor!
Everytime he plays hollywood undead you know he is serious, damn! Awesome champ!
Waited till the day before the show to show everyone his pressing power is very much coming back.
Good luck, big fella! 💪🏽
Winter is Coming 💪 ❄️
I hope you place high and go home injury free!
Now we are talking! Thor is regaining his strength!
Big wide dude out benches prime Thor, and yet the log becomes way more difficult, really puts things into prespective. Big props to him though, powerful man.
And Go Thor!
Thor standing there asking Laid for cash killed me 😂
Good Luck Thor!
Man Sebastian looks like a child next to Hafthor
Strong, Hafthor, strong!
For those who are reading, have a nice day.
U 2 pookie
Thanks, you too man 🤘
Are you drunk?
for whom who are bots, f u
Right back at ya Zenzuu
The mountain is back!
The Mountain's back baby! Best of luck at SMOE. My call is you, Hooper, then Stoltman.
Also, I've been saying Smoe as a word too, so you're not the only weird one.
And also-also, props to one of the best coaches in the game.
you will win smoe.. i will be there when you will win..
Get some!
LoL, I met Sebastian(Great guy) some years back and and I was slighty shorter then him and and lot less muscle, seeing him next to Haftor really sets things in perspective 🤣🤣.
😂😂😂 thank you for the acknowledgment!!! I never considered a 100kg / 220lbs guy to be small, until I met Thor 🥴
If only hafthor can get as much “damage control” on the press medley and dumbbell as possible, I think if he’s having a good day he can win nearly all the other events
Great 1st Day at SMOE for Thor. Breaks the Keg toss for height WR. Three points behind Hooper currently, and those two are way ahead of everyone else. Go Thor!!
Hey thor good luck with the strongest man on earth conptish
Thor....do we need to say more...
❤❤
i just hit the gym let’s go
I wouldn't lift that 115KG dumbell off the floor and Thor lifts it up like he won an Oscar 😂
Holy shit. 🎉
Hope you do well Hafthor. SMOE looks like a great event in that it seems to be run for and by the athletes and in this case a former one - Brian himself. Something not others sports have. Hopefully you can do a lot of detailed footage of the event to show it in its totality as there seems to be a lot of interest for it
Drink everytime you say SMOE!
Bro weighs in kg what I weigh in lbs 😂what an absolute monster
The easyness he lifts 45 kg with one hand, and having a total of 90 kg in both hands, for us guys that lift, makes it look easy
He's pressing 100kg like nothing, it's like many people don't understand it is extremely rare and hard to do
i swear Baker just shows up the most random times
Casual Gym Reaper appearance
Magnus Samuelsson got married and got kids and rested a whole year and still got 3rd place in worlds strongest man
Tomorrow, Magnus is also cheering for Hafthor, just like he did at 2017 ESM. Btw, did you see the Squat Setup? Looks like Brian and the team has dialed it in?
@@Nirsterkur nice to hear Magnus is a fan of Thor aswell! Together wiking strong 😎 Yes i have seen the youtube videos of the squatmachine! Looks awesome but i think it may be a little unstable and ”wiggely”. What do you think?

@@mickett Not the biggest fan of it. Always opted a good old school Barbell squat, but I think with the implementation of pressure plate, foot placement rules and depth rules, this will truly find out who the strongest squatter is. Feeling optimistic. Let's see.
So this is who uses the 150 lb dumbbells at the gym.😂
40 lb dumbbells look ridiculously small in his hands.
This guy is probably bigger than me or my size and it looks hilarious working out with you guys, trainers not that big, guy in the lakers jersey is big behind him
bros has to use knee sleeves as albow sleeves
I panicked a little when I saw "Injury" but then saw the rest of the title. Lol
Its going to be good this competition. Put aside the other capable strongman they say Shaw Classic will be between you, Tom and Mitch. You're overhead press is you're weakness here.
Tom's squat is his weakness here.
Mitch's stones is his weakness.

Damn, Thor is only 194kg? I was thinking he had to be above 200, around 205kg.
I feel like maybe you should have went to colorado a few days early just to get used to the elevation
Go out and get that SMOE title and monetize it like a boss so we can eliminate the need for WSM.
I’ll be watching this weekend.
Thanks for the content and access to your coach and his thoughts along the way.
Seems a bit close to.comp to go that heavy to me, but what do I know. Thor obviously knows what he is doing
♥
💪🏽
💪💪💪
Thor makes his coach look 5’3” which means he’s probably 6’0”
💪
My upperbody takes as long to recover as my lower body. I just wreck myself with weights and then can’t do anything for 3 days 😂
Isn't that the guy that goes around challenging people?
oh yeah just seen the "few minutes before" hahaha
Feeling recovered from the pec tear!?

How did you get Joe Rogan to train you?
You also.
How is this man pressing the 80kg dumbell with both arms?
Because he is the strongest human ever!
@@giovannicupello1977 no doubt!
