not gonna lie, when I first watched the doc. i kinda already believed Thor's statements w/out doing the research myself but now it's pretty clear Eddie won fair.
And that’s why this documentary was made I believe... to state facts and the raw truth to get rid of any question marks!
🙏
Eddie I just wanna let you know I love you
@@eddiehallwsm Your the best man! send you my best
@@eddiehallwsm After i watched the detail video i can clearly see, that thor really only done 11 reps
@@eddiehallwsm yo eddie im a big fan of yours, i know you are going to beat thor in the boxing match, cause there is no one whos got a stronger will than you, he aint no match for you!!! so glad that the world now finally sees that your WSM victory 3 years ago was won fairand square
“No one else has said well done yet”
That’s actually heart breaking
im sure Brian did but was busy recovering
It wasn't even really very close. Eddie performed 100% perfect text book reps; complete lockouts without double dipping. Thor on the other hand performed at best 90% and was fairly given a one rep deduction. Conclusion: Eddie not only won, but he smashed it, and deserves all the credit in the world. He's a real standup guy. Much respect!
Twist ending: hafthor is a paid actor
Same 😢
nobody is on his level to say those words to him that's why nobody said "well done" to him.
I think Mike Tyson said it best, “He’s a Thor loser”
😂
Lmao this comment made my day
A Thor Lother
Under rated comment
🤣🤣🤣🤣
If anything, the judges were too lenient with Hafthor, but no matter how you feel about it, his score was 14 at the end of the exercise. Which meant that Eddie's target was 15. Can you imagine the idiocy of giving Hafthor another rep after the fact? Eddie looked like he could have done at least one or two more if he had to.
I guess you can also argue Eddie did his faster... so even though that's not how things are decided, I think it matters. Problem is I think Eddie could have and should have gone for 16. I think hafthor would still be complaining for reasons...
Looked like he barely did 10 that should have counted.
Exactly. The hammer got hammered fair and square by the better man. Bad loser and it is always nice to see somebody try to blame someone or something else for their own failure.
It just makes Eddie look the better man out of it.
All I can say is you lost hammer and deserved it even more by being a big baby about it.
Giant cry baby. What a disgrace to his country and the integrity of sportr.
This controversy shows that Hafthor lost the World's Strongest Man title not only in physical strength, but in character!
Major respect to Eddie, he deserved so much better and still shows composure and kindness to his competitors
You even have other competitors. Someone who's a friend with him saying I'm friends with the guy. I like them but I don't think he won.
It's okay to be upset that you lost. It's not okay to make spurious claims.
Hafthor is right though. Bryce changed the events in Eddie's favor
When Eddie said “No one else has said well done yet..” I honestly felt really bad for the guy
It hit hard didn't it.
Yeah it was a bit sad to be honest
well Eddie won one time wsm and he got A LOT of credit for it... The most arogant winner ever, was a great show tho. back in 17. Not everyone likes the way he acts and says stuff. hypocritical guy this eddie
@@seife41 People like Eddie are just extremely competitive. Their brains just work a bit differently, they come across as arrogant and full of themselves but I don't think that's fair, they just have this superhuman drive to be the absolute best at everything they do, they're the epitome of an alpha male. Eddie is is a bit of a joker, and a young man with an enormous amount of testosterone, but I think he's a decent man deep down.
@@seife41 6’3 height is above average height however comparing that to other others that he’s smaller and won. That’s fairly impressive
Felt for you Eddie when you said "no one else has said well done yet" You won that comp fair and square
Same. Although he is a scary man to approach I guess. Intimidating character. He didn't bring any friends to the competition either. Only his physio. I'm positive he got an generous amount of congrats at the event. Very few people supported the idea there even was a controversy. The controversy didn't gather any moss until after the event

If no one else said well done then Eddie was probably either hiding or the other competitors had a reason to not want to congratulate him. I doubt they were just bitter.
He reminds me of the dwarven warriors from Magic The Gathering 🤣
@@HaganeHiryu Probably because nice guys finish last, Most if not all people on the top level (or any world level competition ) they are the most competitive people in the world at what they do. I bet everyone else in that final where secretly disappointed in themselves.
Even if hafthor got the 15th rep, eddie would've got the 16th one easily tho 🤔😂😂
That last one was pretty fast I bet he would have gotten 17-18 if he went all out
Yes 16th rep he was cleanly without struggle doing them easily and locking out all through as well
O ya he coulda done 2-3 more just stoped because he didn't have too
I said the same thing…👍
Thats a good point , Ed had another 4 in him
He had no issue with the double dip call until he saw eddie get 1 more😂
Yes, absolutely!
*Eddie's knees and elbows were rock solid. Hafthor's were wobbly and not locked out half the time... It's very clear who won.*
Eddies lifts were clean as. No issues there!
Yup. I se Halfthor got like 7 or 8 god reps out of 15
You have to also remember, Thor's argument is completely based on the fact, if that rep was allowed it would have been 15 each, and the overall score would have been a tie, not the one point Eddie beat him by.
However had a target to aim at, and did 15 because that's what he had to do to win. I'm 99.9% sure, Eddie would have been more than able to do 16 or 17 if he had to.
Plus there were 3 events after this I believe, so it's not as if he didn't have a chance to claw it back. Also on the Stone, Eddie knew he just had to lift them all to win, you could argue if he was against the clock and had to beat a specific time to win, he would have.
But as mentioned in the video, Thor is surrounded my 'Yes' men, if he told them he believed water was green and the sky was black, they'd back him and convince him he was right. Thor has at least 4 reps that could have been DQ'd, he wasn't locking his elbows on them all either. It's arrogance of the highest order for Thor to genuinely believe he was cheated out of the title. He's like a child throwing his toys out the pram.
Plus he was out of time to hit his last rep which would have been 15 if he had did it right. Eddie has so much time to hit 15 and would have hit 16 if Halfthor hit 15.
@@IRISHMARKSMAN446 The ref even said he gave Thor 4 points that were bad. Thor really only did 10 reps.
Regardless of who you like or dislike, I think we can all agree that Brian Shaw is an absolute treasure.
Aaaaaaaaammeeeeeeeen
I agree, nice chap!
he's so alpha even when in the group of the 10 WSM finalists (in a good way)
@@huglife3155 he's fucking awesome.
If you hate Brian Shaw, I hate you.
just the fact that the ref said I warned you 4 times and only knocked him once should be clear enough. if that judge wanted to be a stickler he would of knocked him for each of those 4 not just the last one.
Being a judge must be so stressful, you obviously want to be on good terms with everyone, but that also means people are going to call you biased when someone you're particularly on good terms with wins
Their call can make or break a win, disputed or not, it would knock confidence after being told the lift wasn't counted or happened on the end of the timer. Watched wsm every year since I was 9, seen pudinezki compete twice as hard due to similar ref calls, but was still a gent and congratulated the winner. Lost a lot of respect for hafthor after 2017 wsm
Colin Bryce is a fraud tho, Eddie was given favourable events to win WSM 2017, but the judging within the event was fair
No stress as long as you are right.
As a ref You shouldn't be "trying to be on good terms" with competitors. That's how accusations of bias can happen.
@@robertt9342that’s how bias happens, not just accusations.
Swore on his daughter's life and the reff said please don't say that as he knew thor was wrong. Well done Eddie
Yeah the walk away was deep..
Thor is better and stronger, Eddie almost died lifting half ton and Thor did it easily
@@Johncena-od8gu in his own gym, using his own weights, with his own barbells, with his own ref, with no crowd
@@sherifnaguib1617 exactly.
@Blubber I prefer Eddie and think he's stronger, but Thors height is a disadvantage on deadlifts lol. You have to lift the weight further.
"No one has said well done yet..." That was kind of sad, for Eddie having trained so hard only for people to question a win that personally i think he dominated with pure raw strenght.
He didnt dominate he won by 1 point
Lmao rsg do you think that one lift was the whole event??😅
@@vkoswewdaw he won by many points from the cheater who only got deducted 1 point instead of many points sir
Thor just doesn’t like to lose. He’s never had to work for his wins like Eddie had and quite honestly... I’m not sure he gives a fuck about worlds strongest man, if he did, he would’ve done his reps cleanly.
@@kfulton3578 dafuq ur on about? he clearly gave everything he had and wanted to win as much as eddie did
If Hafthor has to blame someone, it can only be his trainer who didn't teach him how to properly do the excercise.
That win was and is 100% yours Eddie. Regardless of what anyone thinks or says, you won that fair and square. I believe he simply had too many yes men by his side and had a lot of ego going into that competition giving his nature of being a movie star. It's a shame he and his team couldn't uphold the brotherhood and stay true and have good ethics and integrity for the sport and their fellow competitors. You'll always be above and truly one of the greats. I'm just a nobody, another fish in the ocean. But your videos give me lots of Amp and drive foe the gym. Keep your head high sir. You deserve it.
Eddie locked his elbows at the top of EVERY rep... Hafthor didn't...
Eddie waited for the "DOWN" instruction during every rep.... Hafthor didn't...
Eddie locked in his knees during every rep and held them strong in the correct position... Hafthor definitely didn't...
Moral of the story.... Thor was NEVER cheated out of the World's Strongest Man and Eddie won it fair and square.
More like thor cheated and still can't win
THIRDY, EDDIE WENT AFTER THOR and probably could have pulled out another rep if he really needed to whereas thor was just dead.
don't forget the ref said he took 1 of 4 bad reps off thor too.
not to mention that Thor used his clout and following to bash Eddie and take away the glory that Eddie deserved
Hear hear! ❤
Absolutely love that he has all the yes men and Eddie is there alone, quietly goes about his business and smashes it, true beast.
I mean those are Thor’s family lmao. It’s not like they’re random friends he brought along
The power of the nan
This comment ^^ 💯
Hall was there to work. Thor was there to show off
Dustin LaBorde you don’t sound very smart lol
The refs called it. You won. I'm sorry that you were not acknowledged at the time for your accomplishments. I wish I could of been there to give you a big hug when no one would. You did great Mr. BEAST!
Imagine comparing losing a strong man competition to losing your daughter...I get that competition is important to some people, but that is ridiculous.
he didnt tho.
@@schackmountain yea he swore on his daughter he didn't double dip, and he did. Take that however you want.
he clearly did compare it at the beginning
@@schackmountain He did, watch at 3:03. He said it feels like it did when his daughter was taken from him
where is your apology ? @@schackmountain
A referee should never be put in that position straight after an event where he feels intimidated.
Ever watched football? 😂
That ref has some steel knackers
@@Dr.Johnson I would get more intimidated by a 2,05m 205Kg man then a footmall player dont u think ?
He was the head of sports at my old school, was one of the most fair positive teachers ive ever had in my life. Makes me pissed tbh watching them bitching to him
@@Dr.Johnson Football refs get criticized before, during and after games 😂😂
eddie will always be in my mind one of the most impressive men that's ever lived. Man is a beacon of determination a willpower
Even as a layman I can see the issue, this is truly bad sportsmanship to claim cheating.
"Because he was a big tv star, people believed him"
I felt that
Big tv star that was covered up due to lack of acting prowess
Big Z “ I would be 8x WSM then”, that part was hilarious, especially coming from a legend.
Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved
people forget that these things were actually very recurring at the finals. Back in the day Brian vs Bigz it was also like that. Shaw fucked up with the bag carry and it cost him 1st place
Same could be said for Brian. How many times did Brian come so damn close to winning. Brian has gotten so close to the trophy so many times but in his losses he became an even stronger champion. I think the one guy who said Thor is surrounded by Yes Men is correct. Thor is Mr. Hollywood and he has that Hollywood mentality.
Didn't he win Arnold classic like 8 times? I forget how many, I just know it's some crazy number and Arnold classic is the strongest competition
@@armwrestlingfan6804 something like that, and that is one of the reasons why currently he is all time nr1
Huge respects to Kaz for immediately congratulating Eddie.
I can understand the frustration behind losing a competition like that but there's absolutely no reason he should've put you on blast like that
The real tragedy, besides Eddie and the referees reputations slandered, is the fact that this documentary clearing their names won’t get anywhere near as much media attention as the original controversy.
Well, 6 million views is a lot
6.5M views and 200k likes later...
Also why didnt this guy release this footage in 2017 after he filmed it!!! Why let eddie take all this bs for so long!
@Senior Billy Bull Thor was prepping exclusively for that lift and did it at a date and time most suitable for him. Eddie did it while already out of gas, and the challenge was thrown as a spectacle, nobody expected anyone to lift it. Also the weights Thor lifted were verified by his father, and Thor conveniently retired strongman with a bs excuse. So was it even 501kg that he lifted is up for debate
@Senior Billy Bull Thor Broke the record by a mere 1kg. Eddie did it by a mere 35 Kg at the time amongst guys like Benedikt Magnusson and Jerry Prichett who also had attempted the 500KG lift. Sure Thor "could've" pull 20+ more kg to prove a point, but the simple fact that he didn't when he had a chance to blow eddies record away and take all bragging rights away from Eddie's name makes that argument invalid.
As much as I admire Thor - he did struggle with his last 4 reps, whereas Eddie did 15 100% clean ones. Eddie won fair and square.
They were much, much cleaner.
He did like 8 without locking his elbows as well
Also if Thor did get 15 Eddie would have just done 16 as he had 15 seconds left when he finished
The event was still handpicked to fit eddie Blubberball hall.
I think Thor's Height & limbs' length were not suitable(too long) for that weights' Mechanisms.
However it is more suitable for Eddie's Measurements which are shorter than Thor's.
It's good that we get to hear other competitors opinions on what they thought about the scandal because they fully understand what it takes to even do a heavy lift and on top of that they all know "IT'S A SPORT!" you win some you loose some, but that doesn't stop them to keep competing and getting better each year and challenging themselves even more. But most importantly it's all about the sportsmanship.
Watching the side by side comparison it was clear that the judges were extremely lenient with Hafthor who I think was VERY lucky to be given a score of 14, what a crybaby, Eddie you annihilated him on that one, the official record shows you won by one, but in reality I think Hafthor should have been reprimanded more harshly by the judges during the event and told he wasn't waiting for the down call, he was lucky to get 14 as he didn't even do 14 proper lifts!
I mean lets be honest, Eddie would've done 16 if Hafthor did 15...
He had at least 2 more in him
When Is dinner
at the least. Maybe more.
eddie could have done 2 more, he would have died before losing
Psychologie Nerd seems like Thor is the one with the favouritism
@@lukedermott8648 He seems like he is one of the people who were there with Thor at the event.
I loved it when Zydrunas says "If you look this way then i must be 8 times world's strongest man"
WELL SAID MAN WELL SAID!!
The comment from Zydrunas was golden!
Mate that sculpture over your right shoulder is incredible, thats amazing work, love it
I'm not even a big watcher of the sport, but you can easily see Eddie certainly won without a doubt. It all comes down to ego, and that's not a jab at those who compete. You need that mindset to be able to push through the pain and exhaustion to keep moving forward. Hats off to you, Eddie, mate. You could have gone more had the need for it been there. I'm three years late commenting, but having come across the video and seen it, it's plain to see you won without question.
Anyone catch him using his daughter as a bullying tactic to change the judge's mind. Just lost some respect for him now. 2017 the year of the BEAST.
Not a bullying tactic.....it shows he thought he didn't do anything wrong. I don't know how long this comp was after he lost custody of his girl but i think that played into his attitude towards all of it, and his coach really pressed the issue with it
@@marcust9918 he lost custody of his girl. I never knee that. Do you know why he lost custody of his girl
That he used his daughter made me ill, truly
Mate, he really believed it were good reps, you can see it in his eyes. Yes he was WRONG, Eddie did win fair and square and he shouldnt have made the fuzz about it, but he believed in that moment.
Redmond Lee He was accused of domestic abuse by two women, last was by the mother of his daughter. Really crazy stuff and it’s an overall wild story.
Broke my heart when Eddie said no one else had congratulated him 😢 deserves the win without the controversy surrounding it. Working so hard for something for it then to be tarnished. Glad this highlighted that he was just a sore loser x
He had all his fans and supporters congratulating him and 10+ strongmen said well done. Just because the cameras werent rolling and zues didnt knight him with a million people screaming at the top of their lungs chanting eddie eddie doesnt mean he didnt get props mate.
Nick the point was that the victory was tarnished by a controversy. So before he was even congratulated he had to deal with that whole ordeal
I know bah, im just TROLLIN, takin a deuce with a mask on.
Same
Congratulations Eddie you won fair and square. And you deserve the title of strongest man ❤️
Eddie Hall won it by pure talent and strength but also by following the rules...true Victor ❤
“No one else has said we’ll done yet” I felt that one bro.
don't you hate it when you don't receive the credit you thought you deserved ?
Ouch. That hurt.
@@b_f_d_d as in the well deserved credit of being the strongest man in the world and proving it on the world stage despite drama and unprofessional competition? I think I would too.
i felt this too man. Eddie no doubt deserves 2017 WSM title.
Why is there an apostrophe
When Kaz gave Eddie the congratulations and Eddie replied "no one else has said well done yet" ... That hurt.
It was right in the feelers
I thought brian did when they shook their hands and said something
Kaz really is one of the greatest, on and off the competition field.
@@doodliedie I think Kaz said it before the podium
Brian, nick, big z, and a couple other guys congratulated him afterwards. Those guys were extremely gassed after competing. They are trying to catch their breath qnd relax just like Eddie was here
Love your energy Eddie and where you came from to where you are now. Your content is amazing! Well deserved in 2017
Until just now i had assumed you were all friends. You, Eddie Hall, are one of the strongest men in human history, and are the first man ever to deadlift half a ton. A literal half ton. Nothing anyone says can ever take that from you.
Where did you get that idea ? Not from the somewhat narcissistic bust on the mantelpiece , i wager ! ? lol No , Eddie won fair and square indeed.
"no one else has said well done yet"
Hit me in the feels and when he wouldn't shake his hand.
Eddie will smash him👊 big up the BEAST!
The footage was edited dishonestly. Thor shook his hand
@@proudsaiyanprince2651 its not really about that,thor looks really pissed off at eddie
I felt this so bad as well. My stomach literally knotted.
In defence of the other athletes it must be a huge emotional blow not to win so probably needed some time to compose themselves.
I'd have thought Brian Shaw would have congratulated him on his win, do we know if he did or was he only referring to Thor?
"You cant win everything." - Zydrunas Savickas, man who has won everything lol
LoL, the legend himself
On wsm Mariusz Pudzianowski passed him by 30 points lmao
Z lost to Brian several times at WSM
Im from Lithuania, and we all are proud of him. He gave it all!🇱🇹
Amon Beats very true! Big Z is the legend l! Hands down
“If you win, you are winner” phenomenal way of putting it from Big Z!
Massive respect to Collin for standing his ground with Thor’s crew surrounding him
Imagine the balls on that man... all buffed ass men arguing against u along with a guy that can quite liturally break your skull in 2... and he didnt even stutter or give in an inch
The man has balls of solid rock. Fucking minerals.
@@jesushealthsave4930 wtf
Master Manchild he’s on so many comments saying the same thing so I’m guessing it’s a bot
He's a seasoned referee, he isnt intimidated. Look at NHL referees, theyre usually pretty small guys in comparison to the tanks on skates, yet they dont hesitate jumping in at complete mayhem
Love how Colin doesn't get intimidated when talking to thor and all his yes men and stands by his decision. Good on you Colin💪💪
@Bach Wagner exactly but it's also great to see that he wouldn't take any shit and stood by his decision
It’s easy not to get intimidated when you’re talking to a child
@@GetaVe a 400 pound child😂
I wish i had a crew of YES MEN :(
@@GetaVe haha. A 400lb child who could literally rip your head off your shoulders with his bare hands!
Surrounding yourself with those who automatically agree with you (yes men) means you’ve found yourself in an echo chamber. We’ll done Eddie Hall. Grats on becoming the worlds strongest man. 🎉
Well done Eddie well deserved - Fantastic Champion and an even greater example of a true sportsman, father and great all-round top bloke!
Eddie’s form was 100 times better. There is no controversy here at all.
There's nothing worse than cheating in a sport about lifting without drug tests.
Do u even lift brooooooo........🙄
The ref was beyond fair. Lenient, even. The way Hafthor handled that situation was more than pathetic.
The ref told him I could've taken 4 reps away but gave you 3 because I know your confused. The guy didn't bitch about 14reps till Eddie did 15reps lol. Very very poor loser. Eddie won and the whole event was on Thor....
Collier . ref even said he could have taken 4 reps from thor. Thor's lucky he was given 14 reps and not 11.
Collier lenient is a very good description of the situation with Hafthor...
Well done Eddie, you are a true sportsman that won fair and square. Pity he did not congratulate you.
Hope you and your dad enjoy biking this year, keep them shinny side up.
Cheers Alan (glad you kept your dads 1400)
I found your videos just recently Eddie as I started going to the gym again and needed some motivation.. Not only did I find entertaining and motivation but also heart felt emotion that brought me to tears a couple times just in the last few days. You seem like a great person, father and athlete. I'm looking forward to all your crazy video ideas and really enjoy the videos with Brian Shaw I think you guys got such a brotherly chemistry I relate to it alot with my brother. Be well and safe and thank you for being a good role model in the 21th century. Not alot of those left. Peace and love
His vids with Tommy Fury are good too
Eddie left that day ‘World’s Strongest Man’
Hafthor left ‘World’s Strongest Child’
Very good hahaha
When Eddie beats Thor, he should be called Eddie 'Ragnarok' Hall
Best comment right here.
Eddie is gonna Surtur on Thor
Cool comment 👌🏻
And it was in the viking press, perfect
Or Jormungand, the world snake (read everything about nothern mythology in german, so sorry of it sounds off) which has fought and killed/will fight and kill Thor at the Ragnarok
Great video showing behind the scenes filming. Shows quite clearly Bjornson is a bad loser and not helped by 'yes men'....
Eddie showed what a true gentleman he is and win was thoroughly deserved.
Full credit to the refs for making very fair decisions and giving a number of warnings before knocking points off.
Amazing look at reality Eddie I was absolutely devastated after watching the BS after 2017 and I’ve not watched any strong man since, as a amateur power lifter in my 20s and loving the sport since the days of Geoff capes you sir are absolute legend fare play to you bud
It's sad Eddie didn't get the enjoyment and recognition of legitimately winning the world strongest man 2017!!!!!
Imagine comparing losing your daughter to losing a strongman competition
Probably why he lost custody of the daughter
The cry of a desperate man...not excepting defeat
A man like him, who dedicates his life literally for a sport can feel that way. Not saying he won, but you can't insult him off of this
Gonna gets his family killed one day.
Thats why he is a high performance individual. His career is like a child to him.
This strong man is very well spoken and coherent. We need more people like this.
Recently found eddies channel and was glad i have visited it, nice person with kind heart as he seems.
The only person that robbed him was himself. He was given numerous warnings and Eddie had enough in the tank to do a 16th lift anyway. Congrats Eddie you deserved it. You’ll always have us in your corner
Hafthor got three mulligans. His actual score should have been 11.
I think the double dipping call is debatable but what isn't debatable is that he had 3 other reps that should not have counted because he lowered the weight before the down signal. He's complaining about not being given the 15th rep when it should have been his 12th rep anyway.
I mean 4 warnings... If that was some of the other competitors they would have had more reps removed from result... BUT since he lifts "that way" the referee was VERY nice to him.. Could aswell have been 12 or 13 reps... In my mind his number 13 and 14 was not done right... Down WAY too fast and Not locking out that elbow...
Team Eddie yeeah boi
“If your Yes men come into the ring, I’m going to beat the shit out of them until they are no men.”
I didn’t know Eddie can land a jab with just words.
That's a bar 🔥🔥
Living shit*
This is such a cheesy line but Eddie makes it awesome just cause he's so damn terrifying
And he ment it
@@frostedbutts4340 yeah you really feel like “yeah this guy can and will do that”
there is something beautiful in the power of this guys. so much effort and dedication. one can only wish them all to continue healthy and keep growing stronger =)
To add had Hafthor NOT been in GoT this wouldnt have been as bad for Eddie, Hafthor plays the Mountain which was the third actor to do so, Hafthor used this fame to slander an cast a shadow over Eddies years of 80+ hour weeks of training and recovering, seeing his family one hour a week most weeks, in order to accomplish this great feat an when Eddie finally acheived his goal of winning WSM 2017, up against the toughest competitors, this ten plus year journey and sacrifice was taken from him by a sore loser, Hafthor delusionally thought it was about one point when it was about events had Eddie an Hafthor tied, or Hafthor won the Viking press Hafthor would have lost still because Eddie won more events, events that Hafthor with his physique and levers should have won.
TLDR: Hafthor lost three rounds made for his levers an physique, Hafthor double dipped FOUR times an only ONE was disallowed, Hafthor lost WSM, after Eddies retirement, in 2018 WSM, Hafthor beats his wife an the fame of GoT got to him aswell as his nasty narcissism!
Truly a brilliantly directed docu-film - a classic! Cheers!
Thor struggles on his last reps which 3-4 of them weren’t even reps, Eddie smashes 15 full reps with more in the tank.
Eddie would’ve done another rep if thor had 15 anyway, he had almost 10s to spare
Absolutely right. Eddie had those reps easy.
💯!
Couldn't have said that any better
Prime Eddie is the strongest man this planet ever has. Nuff said.
Imagine training your whole life to win this trophy, then not being able to celebrate it because of a crybaby.
Who was stopping him from celebrating it?
@@rhymereason3449 Any common sense in that dome of yours buddy? This thor situation entirely ruined the atmosphere of Eddie's win, of course he still celebrated it. Just not as he pictured.
@@rhymereason3449 idk Thor, his yes men, thor's fanboys, just about anyone who took Thor's word over the facts and what actually happen, thus creating controversy and doubt whether or not Eddie won fair and square. It's kinda hard to celebrate something you've devoted your life to and achieving after many years and sacrifices when you have a good amount of people saying you're a cheat or it was rigged blah blah.
@@richieewinns it's thanks to shitty Game of thrones fanboys, they worship this guy so much. He plays a super huge guy in that show and that's why they like him a lot.
@@rhymereason3449 it diminished Eddie's win like he only won because thor got disallowed reps, rather than Eddie being a stronger athlete. It's a joke, buzzing to watch Eddie KO that prick
Ive always loved Eddie and now I love him even more. What an inspiration. You cant not like the guy.
Side by side wasn’t even close, incredible performance and still awesome to watch, 1000 more well done’s from me too, just insane ❤🎉
I’m not a Thor or Eddie man, but when the clip of them side by side, eddies static strength is so far superior it’s crazy.
Hercules gene my dude
Idk why Thor even bothered tbh, Eddie’s shoulders in his prime (and some would argue even now, r.i.p his bicep) cannot be compared to anyone. Simple. Brutal. Strength.
Ok lets be fair here. The last 3 reps from Thor were not 100% clean BUT this video is bias because it does not tell you to look how fast the ref is counting "down" when it comes to Eddies reps. Much faster than with Thor. He even telling Thor to hold it lol.
@@takeyourtime3328 For what I understand, It's because Thor almost never lock his elbow, the ref try to be "nice" in some way, by letting some time for Thor locking, and because it never happenned the ref say "down", the failure of the lock is compensated by the exhausting time trying to lock. See that as a Penalty, it's clearly more nice to Thor than just reject every reps because they're all bad.
"No one else has said well done yet." That broke my heart. Well done Eddie. Congratulations on your 2017 WSM win. This video really opened my eyes and I think an apology from Thor is in order.
@Anabolik2k thor is that you?
@Anabolik2k hahaha, tell Hafthor he's a sore loser.
Guys seach lcelandic mag with reference Thor. As eddie bravo will say. "Look into it" u will be surprised what u find out
Why the fuck does that break your heart? Lol. Wow, how hurtful that no one said “well done” to an adult athlete
Don’t worry by next year halfthor won’t be alive to apologize
Not only was he completely gassed at the end of his "14" reps, but you were looking strong and able to do at least one more if need be.
So even if they counted his 15th with 3-4 bad reps, then you would have just done 16 and beat him anyway.. Lets be real.
loved you on "strongest man in history"! keep it up man
Eddie still had more reps in him. He would have won either way no doubt.
69th like Nice
Yep!
If i am ever been in this position i would do one or two more reps.
But i can safely say that i get never in thin position
Thorben yea but u gotta Remember those are heavy as hell so if he didn’t have to (or he thought he should have) I think Thor was put into a bad pos
He definitely could have blasted at least one more either way for sure.
“You can’t win everything” -Big Z who was literally won everything
But sometimes he got second 😢
@@TheRadiantSoap But he still won other times
Im not sure but I think Big Z has the most titles
@@MrPassive1326 He has won every major competition at least once
"You can't copy paste comments from other videos" - You literally copying what was posted on the Official Strongman channel
Nothing but respect Eddie! Stay true.
Referee: You have to pull a plane, any question?
Big Z: What color of plane?
Legend!!!
What’s the time stamp? How did I miss that? Lol
D’Juan Juanson 5:05
Fr😂😂😂😂
Ikr he's a true strong man legend
4:56
Thor: happy with 14 reps
Eddie: gets 15 reps
Thor: now hold on here!
Eddie could have done 20 reps and Thor would still have been "robbed" Eddie could have hit 16, but he only did enough to win, as most Strongman do
Thor: *Let me not hold while double dipping
There were actually 2 or 3 other reps that could have been tossed out. The athletes get only 1 warning. Thor got 3. His last rep wasn't even close. His elbows were completely bent. Not sure what he's complaining about.
@@TampaCEO that last rep, rep 14, he didn't even wait for the ref to say down, he dropped it early, he was lucky to get that one. And I saw the video before Eddie shared it, and yeah, he failed 3 reps and were given them. He should have gotten 11 instead of 14, but let's complain about the last one that would have tied him with Eddie after Eddie finished
@eternity cosplay I wish he would have finished with 16 to just show off, but Thor would have still been "robbed". I like Thor, he seems like a really cool guy, but Colin was way to generous with the Viking Press.
Well deserved Eddie, true inspiration brother ✌🏻❤️
Thanks for this. Eddie deserves for people to see this
We all know that even if Thor had gotten his 15, Eddie would have gone on to do 16 haha
Eddie definitely looked like he could have done at least 2 more. Thor was losing that one no matter what
You stole the words out of my mouth. I was just going to comment saying the same thing.
I agree. If Thor wants to retrospectively claim the extra lift based on Eddie's 15 then it's fair to say that Eddie could claim an extra lift based on Thor's because that's clearly all Eddie was aiming for.
exactly so idk why thor even chose to dispute this other than to make him feel better about losing and not being good enough to beat eddie; makes a lot of sense why he did the 501kg lift now lmao
why arent they doing reps at the same time then?
seems a bit unfair that the 2nd player has more information on how many reps are needed to win
I feel so bad for Eddie, he was and is the champion. "No one else has said that", that really hit hard. You are the man Eddie!
but.....maybe there was a reason to that? no one else, really? it sounds like he cheated.
There is no doubt that Eddie Hall won that event and is the world’s strongest man. Eddie’s technique and control over the viking press was impressive, not to mention that in the viking press, the taller you are the less weight you actually lift…science. Congratulations, Beast. You are a badass!
maybe you should check the science again because science say you are wrong
How does being taller make you lift less weight ?
@@senseithomes if you were lifting something long that is connected with ground and you are lifting only one end of it, it would get easier as you are nearing more and more to vertical position ( __ ----> | ), so i guess if you are taller you start in a more vertical position
Just amazing job om form Eddie ,no doubts about it !Well deserved win!🙌
the referee was being fair and very patient with Thor the whole time while he was shouting at the ref with about 2 or 3 of his mates
What got me is thor put on that he was cheated out of “one” rep to the press and Eddie was a cheat but the unreleased video clearly shows its was 4 reps. The ref GAVE thor 3 and a warning and then took the 4th. GAVE HIM 3. thor didn’t even lock out or wait for the down call in half of them simply because he wasn’t strong enough to hold the weight up. thor was weaker in this event than Eddie, its clearly visible in the footage! Eddie won fair and square and that makes thor a sore loser and he brought dishonor to the competition by not showing sportsmanship to Eddie who bested him...
@IhateECHOES 15:32 "I'LL SAY" after asked by the head ref not to swear on his daughter it wasn't double dipping.
So not only was Thor a sore looser, he lied on his daughter. Pretty despicable.
Thor was credited with THREE lifts that he shouldn't have gotten. You are allowed one warning, he got 4 WARNINGS
That was my thoughts as well, like bro, shut up. You got 3 that you shouldn’t have for failure to lockout and bad form. He’s lucky I wasn’t a judge, I’d have reviewed the footage and taken points off after the first warning since he decided to be a dick.
Dude you can clearly see his right elbow isn't locked. So hes complaining about the double dipping and he failed that rep for multiple reasons.
Clearly a legit win for Eddie, and he obviously had reps in the tank.
it kinda makes me uncomfortable seeing someone swear on their child.
Dead Child aswell. I think
Best quote in the world is big Z saying "you can't win everything" being the guy who has won literally everything
Even if you're being right and honest it still just seems slimey.
@@hiddederoos5929 yee sry idk where i do got this from. but i saw it in a vid who one claimed that. but i was wrong as it seems.
@@hiddederoos5929 I mean thor said that it felt like when he daughter was took from him most ppl would assume she died with no farther context so chill tf out
Thor: hell yeah I won that for sure.
Eddie: hold my cranberry juice.
lol
Facts bro
Wtf is black pudding tho lol
As someone that is a Thor fan i have to say, Eddie absolutely smoked that event. No questions asked.
See how fat Eddie was? It was all the hydration.
Cranberry juice baby! YEAAAAAAH BUDDY!
Always be a friend. In doing so you heap fire upon all of your enemies, then you win their respect. ❤
"I'll go home if this is the case."
What a child.
Remind me never to share my chicken nuggets with Thor, he’d definitely be double dipping!
😂😂😂😂😂
Cracking 😂 😂 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
He clearly never watched Seinfeld smh
Rotfl
I was just thinking “I wonder if Eddie saw that video?” I guess he did, lol
He probably saw it before we did
Tought the same
I was trying to send him actually, now i see this. lol
Same here!
Snap
I can't imagine the feeling of someone winning something as big as this, and everyone saying Hafthor was robbed. Eddie clearly won, nothing will ever change that, the legend Eddie Hall
I didn't see it on the original replay, but when the ref did the watch along commentary it was way more obvious. It's not even one, it's like 4 of them.
Eddie's technique was far superior and he rightfully won. Grats man!
How can he compare this whole debacle to losing his daughter. Lost all respect for him. Eddie hall won that one fair and square. No one can take that away from him. Hope you twat him in the fight next year.
Everyone: serious competition .and technique discussion
Big Z: What colour is plane?
LOL was going to say that xD
what a legend
The Z
its an import part of how to pull it!
Lolololol
