It's mostly his weakness because I'm pretty sure he's torn or damaged both tendons so it's very difficult to do high weight on rehealed tendons. It's like heating steel and then letting it cool without quenching it. It loses is rigidity and tensile strength
I totally agree the best worlds strongest man was 2017 that was a very heavy contest that's why Eddie won he was statically the strongest. You can't really say the guy who can run the fastest with a weight is the strongest man in the world.
I agree. It'd be the equivalent of if they had an annual contest called The Worlds Fastest Man, but halfway through, everyone had to stop and do deadlifts.
I love that you're giving an "up and comer" a shot to compete with this group of legends you put together for the Shaw Classic! 10 years from now, that guy could very well be making his own videos, talking about how he got his first big break from Brian Shaw at his Classic event.
Are you high? He’s pulled over 1,000lbs multiple times, yes his hamstring injury last year was horrible however he just had a session in which I believe he did a tire deadlift of 1,000+ again, but goddamn that’s retarded to say he’s not gonna beat Mateusz who really is weak in deadlift
Can anyone else picture a shredded and lean Brian? He could be a big action movie guy now, but directors would go crazy for him then. Good luck for the next competition! Number 5!
Just imagine Rich Piana being asked that question about going without one of the five things for life. Obviously he’d says protein powder then rant for ten minutes 😂
Evan is cool. He's grown a lot since he first started. Excited to see how he does at wsm this year. He's put the time in for sure. Will Eddie be at the Shaw Classic at least??
Eddie probably won’t be doing anything else other than training for the boxing until it’s over. So maybe next year if the Shaw Classic becomes a yearly thing.
Brian shaw, I know you're a very busy man. I thank you for all these videos. Hopefully this year you make it 5X WSM! Hopefully I get the chance to meet you in person one day! God bless you sir.
Come oooon Briaaaaaan!!!!!!! #5 Youre the best....most humble and inteligent s strongman.....and to do not let it be forgiven the strongeeeeeest😊🤜🤛🤞🤞🤞🤞
For the Shaw Classic, it would be cool to do a 'words of encouragement' from a live feed online. With other strongmen that love the sport, and also the fans.
You guys have been such an inspiration for me . Just started my channel ! Wouldn't have done any of this if it wasn't for watching you and all the other savages that walk this earth
I'm hyped to see Evan Singleton. He's definitely gonna have a bright future. Winner of North America's Strongest Man in, I believe, his first year of competing
I just like how big and friendly and humble Brian Shaw is even when people pick on him he doesn't say anything negative about anyone he just ignores them when most of them need to get slapped for picking the friendly giant . Also Brian try to balance the weight before you drop it because you almost broke your ankle.
I think this is Brian‘s year no matter who was competing. Having pretty much the best strongman gym in the world just in your backyard and going into the competition healthy Brian is ready to prove he is still the best. When he competes this year and wins people will be able to decide whether he would have beat Thor or not just based off his performance
I would say he’s the one to beat pretty much every year. Not so much for him to worry about others but others to worry about Brian. He’s proven to be one of the strongest men to ever live and I think that will carry over this year.
Greetings from Holland. I really enjoy watching your videos. That was tricky question about your thoughts on a possible weakness. I can imagine you still can have doubts about your deadlift after your injury but I am confident that you will smash it at WSM.
Being that Brian is a 4x worlds strongest man champion, so many of the questions really should resound with us and hit a million times harder. “Who’s your biggest competition?” Well I’d be foolish to overlook anyone, but I am my biggest competition. I mean that’s powerful right there.
I appreciate you and your one of my greatest inspirations in life. You give me strength and motivation. Thank you Brian and God bless you and your family. I'm behind you to win world's strongest man brotha🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘💪💪💪💪💪👊👊👊👊👊
@@marlonbrando33 yea sure, there's a lot of stuff I'd like to order from the US as well, but on top of the shipping costs there are customs fees and taxes. Always better (and cheaper) when there's a distributor within Europe like eg. Rogue has.
@@marlonbrando33 I don't think he is making excuses? Like wtf bro? Have you even see the charges? I wanted to order iphone from usa but damnnn the charges to order from usa is same as iphone dumb
@@marlonbrando33 Yeah, $300 bucks for a $75 sweat shirt is so worth it! IDK how accurate these numbers are but the point is meant to be it is too expensive and not worth it.
I know I am probably one of few but I actually like Evan Singleton. He has been getting better and better. Plus when him and Robert Oberst are competing against one another it’s always entertaining. So great pic for replacing Rob. Plus you definitely needed a American in case someone could not travel to America. If you need to replace someone else just in case keep trey Mitchell in mind
I really hope that that strong man moves back towards raw strength, rather than stamina like it aprarantly and honestly speaking has been going that directions for atleast 20 years or something like that...but again in my opinoin this is only because people who are in strongman are no longer giants.... But needless to say I hope it moves back towards single one rep lifts for a max weight to determine the winner/strongest...
Brian would be the perfect referee in the Thor vs Eddie boxing match, who else is gonna split them up if they happen to go into clinch
You mean when they go into a clinch lmao
Tyson
I feel like Mateusz would slap the shit out of both of them lol
Even Eddie said for him "A scary man that is" 🤣
The other old goat, big z
You know there is a weigh limit in the ring 😂😂😂
If Hafthor wants to go through Brian he's gonna have to go through me...which wouldn't be a problem but still
Thats the spirit!😂
lmao
He'd probably just step over you
Volunteering to be a speed bump now that’s supporting your boy. Lol
@Mr C step you for reps 😂😂😂😂😂
Brian: The deadlift is my weakest event.
Also Brian: *Deadlifts over 1000 lbs*

Just shows how crazy strongmen has gotten
Brian to the Strongman bubble:
“I’m not locked in here with you, *you’re locked in here with me!”*
Damn...Full Metal Jacket was so good
Ok here’s what you’re gonna do
Get some headphones and a recording of your sons cheering you on
Boom free win at wsm
Thats actually genius
5:29 Brian Shaw “I’m very well-rounded”
Yes 4x WSM, I agree that you are well-rounded, and an incredibly humble world champion
How is Brian able to talk for so long without eating
Jokes on everyone,he eats everytime they cut the picture 😂😂
Man you cracked me up big time
STFU
He ate lots of air while talking.

When Brian's weakest event is the deadlift... I think he's got a good shot this year lol
Loz says that he believes this will be one of the best years for Brian based on the events for this coming WSM evwnt
He would’ve prob swept the deadlift a couple years ago , if his let didn’t get hurt

Who else other than Shaw currently deadlift 1,000+? No one comes to mind other than Jerry Prichet (sorry for spelling)
@@AlejandroSanchez-pl6jw Rauno Heinla if he's competing this year has a good dl, not sure of his max, but he's one of the top guys.
Evan is an awesome replacement! Will be awesome to see him get a chance to compete against the top dogs.

Plot twist: The phone that Brian is holding is actually an iPad
Underrated comment!!!🤣😂🤣🤣
OMGoodness!! I swear I was thinking the SAME EXACT THING!! Too funny!! I scrolled down and saw your post and busted out laughing 😆
Miguel Alerta
Plot twist: The green hue of his skin has been edited out of the video.
Posted on every video of his. Getting old.
man the q&a s are too good
finally get to see how much more realistic some of the strongmen are
#5 big B !!! You got this can't wait to see you in the podium holding up the gold !!! Stay GREAT Brian Shaw !!!
Thanks for staying consistent on your morals. Backing up what you day is great to see with such a large personality in the sport.
Can anyone else picture a shredded and lean Brian? He could be a big action movie guy now, but directors would go crazy for him then.
Good luck for the next competition! Number 5!
He would look absolutely insane at even like %15
Imagine Brian at like 310-320 in stage condition at the Olympia. He would absolutely dwarf everyone.
He talks about hafthor at 8:47...you're welcome
you deserve a beer. Or a protein shake. Your choice
@@bernardomontesdeoca130 haha I'd take that beer bro I'm no Brian shaw😭🤣
Thanks

You mean World’s Strongest Man of course. 🎈

Unfortunately, Eddie was not one of the names that Brian announced for the Shaw Classic.
I'm pretty sad about it.
@@carverbell1003 I doubt Eddie would come out of retirement just to do Shaw Classic.
@@carverbell1003 He's just a boxer now. LOL
Eddie probably won’t be doing anything else other than training for the boxing until it’s over. So maybe next year if the Shaw Classic becomes a yearly thing.

More kind and humble people like Brian please.
Brian shaw, I know you're a very busy man. I thank you for all these videos. Hopefully this year you make it 5X WSM! Hopefully I get the chance to meet you in person one day! God bless you sir.
I LOVE BRIAN’S CONFIDENCE AND ESPECIALLY HIS MINDSET!!!
Can't wait to see you get that 5th WSM title! You are a wonderful example to you family and so many others. Keep it up!!
Dude, if you did a “at home WR” I would wanna see You do 700lb stones!!
I've thought of that before too, would be crazy
The reason he wont attempt a record is because he would fail.
Thats kind of really fucking heavy
Brian has no weakness. Just areas he's less strong in. And yet every "less strong" area he has is excessively stronger than my strongest area....
Big Loz says the same thing, Loz says he thinks Brian will have probably his best chance for a 5th win this coming WSM comp
Obviously the worlds strongest men are gonna be stronger than you it's literally what they do for a living
Yea I am happy if I lift 3x less than him at anything.
Imagine being strong that your "weakest" lifts are still top .00001%of the world in history.
@@bena3341 ye honestly a 350lbs deadlift isn’t terrible especially if it isn’t your strongest
Brian is such a genuine nice guy what a legend
I know you're gunna win! Strongest of all time with a heart of gold! Always rooting for you
Brian Shaw is the best, and he is a cool personality.
Finally! I found 2 strong kids who can help the teacher with moving desks! 😀
Gotta say that Shaw have done so much for strongman. Noone have ever had that level of professionality towards the sport.
Awesome to see Evan at Shaw Classic!
Brian’s videos are the only ones I watch all the way through
body builder Brian Shaw would be the next live action incredible hulk
He isn't a body builder he is a strongman
Come oooon Briaaaaaan!!!!!!!

Brian hall and Eddie shaw arw my biggest inspiration, love From copenhagen
I'm hyped to see Evan Singleton. He's definitely gonna have a bright future. Winner of North America's Strongest Man in, I believe, his first year of competing
Evan Singleton is the perfect pick!
If Brian thinks that the DL is his weakest event going into the WSM. . . then the field should be worried. He's a top tier DLer.
The Hafthor question at 8:46
Legend
I just like how big and friendly and humble Brian Shaw is even when people pick on him he doesn't say anything negative about anyone he just ignores them when most of them need to get slapped for picking the friendly giant . Also Brian try to balance the weight before you drop it because you almost broke your ankle.

Dude has deadlifted over 1000 lbs and says it’s his weakness. Wow. Wtf. So humble and just an absolute legend.
He’s had a hamstring tear, he had to work up to that deadlift again
Is this a new record of the world? Biggest man ever put in a bubble? I do believe that means Brian has a new record of the world.
I would say he’s the one to beat pretty much every year. Not so much for him to worry about others but others to worry about Brian. He’s proven to be one of the strongest men to ever live and I think that will carry over this year.
He’s like a big baby I love it
I'm rooting for you Brian! #5
Hadn't heard about Rob yet, what a bummer, i love that guy!
Get well soon Rob!
Literally a bummer being gay 😂😂
Only Brian would wish his competitors a healthy contest, real class act!
Seems like a man on a mission ,#5 LETS GOOOO!
For some reason, Shaw reminds me of the Abominable Snow man and Daffy Duck episode “And I will name him George”
Lmao
Hahahaha hahahaha hahahaha awesome
Should be the 'shaw invitational' instead of 'shaw classic'
The stronger you are the easier it will be and cardio wont be an issue with the level you already have.
Here’s hoping for a quick and complete recovery for Rob!
Good man standing by your word
#5 coming soon! Go Shaw!
There are 3 people no matter what I'm doing, I stop and watch their videos. In no particular order

So we're not going to talk about the Shaw Classic also being a competition at his home 🤔
It’s at his home, but he has invited tons of world class athletes to compete there and will have independent judges there.
I couldn't be any further from the world of strenght sports hahaha but, man, I must say it: It's impossible not to be Brian's fan!
I love Brian shaw
I love these Q&A vids
Brian - you guys should do an episode where you dive off 5,15 and 20 meter towers at the pool.That would be hilarious!
Keri needs more videos on her channel!! Bring her back
Shaw could probably beat the strict curl record. His biceps are absurd.
Brian - In not so many words: I'll get leaner after number 5! Go get it B! I heard Kieliszkowski might have had and injury via Oberst's channel.
I know I am probably one of few but I actually like Evan Singleton. He has been getting better and better. Plus when him and Robert Oberst are competing against one another it’s always entertaining. So great pic for replacing Rob. Plus you definitely needed a American in case someone could not travel to America. If you need to replace someone else just in case keep trey Mitchell in mind
Sad to see rob kearny’s injury. As a shorter aspiring strongman he’s definitely a role model!
Imagining Brian Shaw with a 6 pack hurts my brain.
Edit: I love Brian, but do people actually believe he's natural?
He had one for a while
Not that difficult with a steroid cycle

Just like with the record atlas stone. I know you have more in you Brian.

Idk I think Brian could definitely take the record. I mean he's deadlifted 1000lbs one one leg with a torn hamstring on the other
