I met him a few years ago at the RedCon1 gym to watch the Arnold's. I went in early to workout. Was about to fail a heavy bench press (didn't know anyone and was benching solo), he just comes out of nowhere and starts saying "You got this man, get it up! I got you!" Got the rep, because in my mind "okay, if I fail, he's going to have no issue catching it, so push!" Nicest guy.
How cool is it that the strongest man in the world is also a decent, smart and good man. Industrious, educated, philanthropic, kind, mentoring. I nominate Brian Shaw for the worlds manliest man!
@@johnbernhardtsen3008 In sheer raw power he trumps all of them but in any exercise where you repeatedly move or lift your own body weight like pushups or chinups or dips or any variation on that theme he loses to them. Ergo, there is something that they can do that he cannot, crank out dozens of chinups at a time.
It is easy to be a bully when you are his size...but he remains a humble nice guy that sets the example for young people to be humble and lead by example. He helps anyone that asks and has reached the top of the powerlifting world by working hard and never giving up. The world needs more human beings like this guy.
Most of us big guys hate bullies. I am not as big as Brian, but not far from it (6'5" and 300lbs), and couldn't stand bullies in high school... knocked a couple of them around for picking on smaller freshman.
Brian is such a good guy, works hard, loves his family, is a great mentor, freakin talented, has an hysterical relationship wit Eddie Hall. Shaw Classic 2023!!
I am claustrophobic, 6'4" 245lbs and when I go on a plane, I get nervous. I can't imagine how I would be at Brian's height/weight. Brian is truly a wonder and great guy.
He isn't 6 ft 8". He is 6 ft 6". Hafthor Björnsson is 3 cm taller, which is a bit over inch, which is 2,54 cm. Shaw is 203 cm and Björnsson is 206 cm. Of course both have problems in airplanes.
He would not have made it as a pro football player. He has them all beat and size and strength and raw power but his one limitation is that he cannot run as fast as them. Being a fast runner is majorly a part of foodball.
I am not sure how Brian Shaw and Eddie Hall showed up on my feed because I’m not one who watches sports stuff…However I am glad they did I really enjoy watching them both
He's super successful in every aspect and he's very dedicated and inspiring. Just goes to show when you put the extra effort in your results speak for themselves.💪😃 Great video Well done Brian!
Im 6'3" 268lbs with 20" biceps and lightly visible abs. Let me tell you that I feel like a child next to him! He is also one of the nicest human being you will ever meet!
This poor guy, hes such a good man and it must be a real PITA just to exist. So much we take for granted, I wish him long life and good health, stay healthy big man😊
His life won't be very long. The cardiovascular system cannot support an almost seven foot tall over 400 pound frame for long. People that live the longest are very small very weak people.
Awesome guy. Obviously genetics is a big player, and not just dedication, etc. A person couldn't be the strongest man on earth without genetically being gifted.
Brian's the type of guy who, if he got into a fight with someone, he wouldn't actually "fight". The other guy would punch him in the stomach and break his hand, whereby Brian would drive him to the emergency room, wait with him for the doctor, offer him a lift home and offer to take him and his family out to dinner as an apology.
Most strongman competitors are very humble and down to earth people.Not aggressive at all,as they really got nothing to prove.I worked with one in Wisconsin.He stayed at same motel as me.I was relaxing by the pool in the jacuzzi and he just plopped right in with me and offered me a slice of pizza.The man ate 2 extra large meat lovers pizzas at lunch everyday.
what i love most about brian is his intensity for the knowledge of the sport, and that he has always focused on taking care of his body. similiar to magnus i hope to see a depowered but healthy Brain for decades to come
have to say ive seen a few of these guys from the strong man competition and theyre not the type of people you would expect. humble, hardworking and amazing individuals. huge respect to them.
2011, 2013, 2015 and 2016 are wisn WSM wins, he came 3rd in 2009, he never won europes strongest man, he wan arnolds 2016 in europe 2 hugely different contests
What kind of black car was that he was hopping into at about the 3:37 mark, you would think they would get a mini van or something for him and not this smallish car 😂 😂😂😂😂
3:24 His fist WSM win was 2011 (won 2011, 2013, 2015, 2016). 2009 was his first podium finish under Big Z and Pudz (second place under Big Z in 2010). Might have been his first finals appearance too, but don't quote me on that.
5:04 "His own supplement line... Strongman Corporation" I swear I thought those were supposed to be 2 different sentences, because his supplement line is actually called Undefined Nutrition and he doesn't do anything associated with Strongman Corporation
I would pay him millions a year if i needed a body guard lol. I really like how humble and respectful he is. I have so much respect for him. A great guy with a good attitude. I wish him well. I really like people who are humble like that

the best thing about him is that even though he is huge, powerful and rich he still remains humble and empathetic. he radiates strenght, not danger.
Exactly
A trait of naturally huge guys. (I know he's enhanced) they don't have to proof anything
And he can spell the word "strength"
I met him a few years ago at the RedCon1 gym to watch the Arnold's. I went in early to workout.

@TheAdatto I know a couple really big guys, both say they have never been in a fight.
How cool is it that the strongest man in the world is also a decent, smart and good man. Industrious, educated, philanthropic, kind, mentoring. I nominate Brian Shaw for the worlds manliest man!
He's industrial,. because he's a machine himself.
The man is a legit legend.
I'm with you 100%
Whoever scheduled him to do the bodybuilding awards is a LEGEND. 😂
💯...lol he totally dwarfed those musclebound guys
I was half expecting him to raise their hands then keep going, picking them up with one arm
I thought he was gonna eat that guy lol
actual kingpin from marvel comics
@@slicksilver9441 Body Builders tend to be very short compared to strong men. I am probably taller than some of them and I am only 5 foot 9.
Brian on that bodybuilding stage was hilarious, he literally dwarfed everybody
he also weighs about twice their weight!

they were on average 5 foot 4 inches
Gotta be honest, the competitors all looked like children on steroids
IFBB Men’s 212 division is for bodybuilders that are 5 foot 5 inches tall or less.

It's hard to tell the difference nowadays as a lot of content made by people is contrived, passionless and mass produced.
Whether he is or not the strongest man on earth, Brian, undoubtedly, is one of the nicest human beings I' ve ever seen.

Thanks Brian, you are a real life hero to people in need. No wonder you have excelled in all you do, you remain humble and that makes you a Superstar!
I don’t think he’s watching this.
Bad wording on my part, I meant to em part his inspiration. Cheers @@seyerus

You're wrong!! It's a full sized Husky!! ROFLMAO 😂
Easily one of my favorite strong men of all time. Strong & humble.
It's very refreshing to learn about people like Brian. Way to go big man !
Brian Shaw and Shaq need to hang out for an episode
You can guarantee any flight he is on there are no Karen's or air rage 😂😂
The thing about Karens is they know no guy is going to be willing to do anything to them, so it doesn't matter what kind of guys are around.
He's a nice guy, that's all that really matters.
I would pay money to see him visit Japan and just move around Tokyo.
I would pay money to see him in sumo wrestling.
@@riesenesel176 Hasn't he tried that or was it only Eddie Hall?
@@EmoEmujust Eddie
@@nukem8128 Both against the sumo elite in Japan, this would be interesting.
Imagine sitting on a plane with the last empty seat next to you... and then you see this guy coming down the aisle!
They didn't mention him winning the Shaw Classic. Its definitely becoming a elite competition. Hes been my favorite since he started strongman.
I've never met him, but he is known as a nice humble person. That's something to be proud of. He must have great parents.
He would have been scary as an NFL lineman.
He would not have made it as a pro football player. He has them all beat and size and strength and raw power but his one limitation is that he cannot run as fast as them. Being a fast runner is majorly a part of foodball.
@@ZurroundHow delusional can you get? Lineman run like 10 yards then take a break.

If Brian Shaw sits next to you in coach class, he's going to get both arm rests😂
Whoever scheduled him to do the bodybuilding awards is a LEGEND. . He's a low key genius.
This guy is amazing. Big in stature, big heart, may he continue his massive life ❤
I am a female saw him in person and had to look straight up at this huge gorgeous man so big so strong OMG
Also I would love to have him lift me and carry me off
There are not many people who radiate their good character like Brian Shaw.
he's humble but competitive
beautiful human being
If we had more people like him in the world what a humble place it would be thanks for being you Brian

Brain is the most humble strongmen to exist to this day
He's a gentle giant too, never cusses. 😮
He called Eddie a piece of shit once.
I don't understand that comment you can be gentle and swear non stop. You need more Australian friends XD.
Unless he's with Eddie or Obie😂
making body builders look like buff children on stage cracked me up... making them dudes look like they cant get shit off the top of their fridge
His wsm wins were 2011, 2013, 2015, and 2016. I thought for sure someone would say this in the comments.
For a man that large and successful. Hes still humble....truely a great man...
Im 6'3" 268lbs with 20" biceps and lightly visible abs. Let me tell you that I feel like a child next to him! He is also one of the nicest human being you will ever meet!
"low-key genius" 😂😂😂😂
At 3:23, he didnt won the World Strongest Man 2009, Zidrunas Savickas did it. He won the WSM 2011, 2013, 2015, and 2016.
He's a low key genius😂😂
Did Brian produce this short documentary? lol. He is easily the strongest man who ever lived and he can still compete
That's it. I'm writing him in on the ballot for 2024. 💪
This poor guy, hes such a good man and it must be a real PITA just to exist. So much we take for granted, I wish him long life and good health, stay healthy big man😊

Brian Shaw didn't win his first WSM comp in 2009... It was 2011 when he won his first WSM title 🤦♂️
Brian Shaw
Great American.
Nuff said.
Brian the Boss Shaw!! Keep up the good work Brian!
Awesome guy. Obviously genetics is a big player, and not just dedication, etc. A person couldn't be the strongest man on earth without genetically being gifted.
He didn't win in 2009. 1st win was 2011 then in 2013, 2015, and 2016. Gotta get the lil things right or folks will just think you're a joke.
Yeah, not written by a strongman fan. Common sense would tell you he didn't win Europe's Strongest Man either
FYI that dog Brian was walking on the leash is a full sized German Shepard
Brian has an untapped movie roll... he is Marvel's Kingpin
What a good man. True gentleman 😊.
This guy can play Kingpin.
He's a really nice guy.

Looking at him next to Eddie hall is crazy

Guy in plane hopefully banking on a skinny person next to him or better still a spare seat and then Brian sits next to him lol 😂
Hopping in a semi-truck feels like a regular vehicle to him. He could kill Superman with just wearing Kryptonite brass knuckles.
He’s on the list of guys you don’t want to piss off - Mike Tyson, Brock Lesnar, etc
watching from Great Britain - a real gentleman, always competes with honour
Brain Shaw winner of the 2023 Shaw Classic, Strongest man on Earth.
Thumbs up for Shaw to be casted as Kingpin!!
This video is 50% Brian getting on airplanes.

One of the coolest dudes on earth!💪😎👍
He isn't 6 ft 8". He is 6 ft 6". Hafthor Björnsson is 3 cm taller, which is a bit over inch, which is 2,54 cm. Shaw is 203 cm and Björnsson is 206 cm.
put him in a realistic bigfoot costume and let him roam by himself in the middle of some US national parks
This is another one of my candidates to be a first person we send to meet the aliens if they ever visit.
if anyone deserved a private custom tailored B787 it's this absolute unit of a man!
Hes got such a great personality he should have a T.V. show or a podcast at least.
He must eat a dinossaur for lunch...😂😂😂
