The Mountain might be a deadened serviceman walking on Game of Thrones , but Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson might be the most “ alive ” person on the entire major planet . Over the weekend , he beat a domain record by nonchalantly deadlifting 1,041 pounds . Now , all we need is to see him bench agitate a flying lizard .
At the 2018 Arnold Strongman Competition , Björnsson institute his reign with a triumph in the deadlifting rival , thump last year ’s winner Brian Shaw and Mikhail Shivlyakov from Russia ( who actually startedbleeding from the faceduring his deadlift ) . Björnsson ’s been planning this triumph for a while , tellingMen ’s Healthlast month that he had program of beating the previous 1,031 - pound phonograph recording . Well , mission accomplished !
It ’s not quite as heavy as Dany ’s dragons from season seven , which are the size of a Boeing 747 , but he ’s getting damn skinny . HBO , I really hope this means you ’re planning a fisticuffs between the Mountain and Wight Viserion in the final season . The valet de chambre ’s clear ready for it .
Game of Thrones returns in 2019 — with yet another accolade under its smash .
