    From a young boy that had many goals, many dreams, much hard work to do, and much effort that was needed. You get a man. A man like Brian Shaw that not only achieved his goals but also became known as the World's Strongest Man. Congratulations on your win sir I am so pleased to see how much you have grown, it's a bit saddening to see that it's already your last professional lifting time but I see now that you have a new journey ahead of you and i have no doubt in my mind that you will succeed in that just as easly as you always have. Keep pushing. Pain is weakness leaving the body. Thank you for showing the world greatness and puting a new name in history books 🌹

    The fact you can compete and put on a stage like this is insane in itself let alone win and dominate. The journey is just getting started! Can't wait to see what the future holds for the legend that is Brian Shaw. Thank you for all you do and have done!

    Nick Bests reaction to Brian winning. To be able to cry over a friends legacy is fucking beautiful. Nick is a real one. That display of appreciating someone so deeply makes me a little emotional. To love a friend so sincerely is more precious than gold.
    Eddie doesn’t exactly have the age it takes to have such sentiment, but you can still understand that under the words and the expression, he cares a great deal about brain legacy.
    I wish we could have gotten Obersts words after the competition. But him being there so close to the stage hollering at Brian says it all.

    Big respect Brian, you have not only showed that you are the strongest man on the planet, but you are also a big promotor of the sport and on top of that you have created the heaviest and best show there is (imo). I think your show also gives a much better representation of who is the strongest man on the planet than WSM. It's obvious the really heavy contest suits you better than the speed contest. The livestream was also great!

    Everything looked so professional, the crowd was amazing, and the emotions were unbelievable.
    Swear to god, when you hit that 1050 in the deadlift or the double rep with 575 on the standing chest press I was crying all the way.

He proved to everyone that he is still the strongest man on earth and the best strongman of all time.
