@@latex0r He was a hard fella. Prison time, rough streets growing up and MMA fighter in his blood. Not to mention perfect genetics and unparalleled work ethic.
Big Z is truly in a class of his own, when you look at total wins, and total podiums, no one comes close. Just looked it up, International & National Competitive Record - [1st (130),2nd (32),3rd (22) - Out of Total(218)] He got 1st place in 130 comps.
It's amazing to see how far this sport has gone in 20 years. You see these guys struggle with 700ish pounds hummer deadlift and this year Oleskii Novikov pull a WR for 1210 lbs.
God what an awesome competition. Phenomenal effort by Svend Karlsen with the hamstring injury but Big Z was just awesome here! Crazy how many guys improved in the first event from 2003 and 2004!
Why is it that the old strongman / Arnold classics just motivate me so much more than the newer ones? Maybe because I grew up in that era, I don't know.
Ostatnio jest nagonka na Mariusza że przecież nie wygrał żadnego Arnolda. Tylko ludzie nie kumają że przy rekordach w ciężarach ogromnym plusem jest wzrost. I nie piszcie swoich teorii o dźwigni przy martwym bo niższa osoba jest w stanie podnieść więcej względem swojej masy ciała ale jak masz 185cm wzrostu i rywalizujesz z kimś kto ma 2 metry to tamta osoba z automatu może na sobie mieć 20kg więcej mięśni co da jej lepsze wyniki. Mariusz wygrywał tam gdzie miał szansę wygrać bo liczyły się czasy i wytrzymałość.
Did Brian really said no American cleaned over head consecutively did he forget the competition he was in were mark henry cleaned it with ease 3 times 😂😂 collin said mark henry cleaned it 2 times no it was 3 he was the first to do it 3 times nobody but one person could clean it once mark henry did it 3 times he didn't use the continent lift like everybody else did he cleaned it henry proved he was the strongest man in that competition.
At the Arnold? I don't think anyone argues that. But Pudz is undoubtedly the greatest at strongman as he didn't just beat z but he would dominate Z like it was easy in WSM, and would beat Z in the super series.
POUND FOR POUND I FEEL THE POLAND WAS THE GREATEST BUT BIG Z IS THE STRONGEST OF ALL TIME . NEEDS TO BE WEIGHT DEVISIONS WITHIN THIS SPORT TO WORK OUT WHO IS THE STRONGEST ? WEIGHING 20 KG MORE THAN THE OTHER PERSON IS A HUGE ADVANTAGE .
I wish Mark Henry competed back then. Too bad he retired too soon. So much potential. Him and Big Z would have a huge rivairy. Just imagine how strong Mark Henry would be within 5 years😳 ( 2002-2007 ) He could have been the first to lift 500 kg if he kept going.
He had nothing more to prove wwe paid him more than strongman could ever pay him plus the other guys were on steroids mark wasn't so he wouldn't want to compete with them. Brian gave big z the rivalry I'd say big z mark henry and Brian shaw are the best strongmen mark henry is still the only guy who's clean the apollon wheels the others had to bring it to their chest.

@@luckygame5996 Agreed! There are just so many people on TH-cam especially who seem to think WSM is far and away the best strongman competition and the rest don't matter. The different major championships emphasize different skills, which makes this sport harder than most to compare athletes.
@A.A.Ron Davis Not just that, Pudzianowski is an all around better strongman. When it comes to pure strength, Big Z is stronger but Pudzianowski is a better strongman.
Mariusz is unbelievable. How he got that 3rd and 4th rep on the axel is mind boggling. What a fighter.
Also in the last event when the weight crushes his foot but he still tries to continue.
He has true grit, can't train that

Im as polish guy must say bigZ is the best and strongest men ever!
You know you’re a big dude when you make Arnold look small, lol. Gotta love Big Z!

The Way #SvendKarlsen lifted that *356Lbs Axle* for First Rep 🔥
It was a Real display of Pure Viking Power

The people had more class and humility back then. Also more genuine personalities.
thank you for posting this!!!
Kind of cool to see people with cameras instead of phones
I love it when Colin was talking to Big Z just before the last event and Big Z just kept on grinning when asked about the sore leg rumour
Loved Colin downplaying Big Z for being too heavy on the Apollons Axel until he came back and broke his record.
Sven Karlson 1st axl lift was unbelievable

He still looks pretty big though

Good job VHS strongman
What a great upload!
Wow this amazing!!! Thank you so much for the upload
Really exciting contest. Love the Arnolds. Thanks for posting.
The commentator - why was he underestimating BigZ so much on the axle press? It was like they were just waiting for him to leave the stage.
Yeah Z shut up colin real quick haha
Just Colin trying really hard to create drama like he always does commenting lol
6:50 good advice
Look how not crowded the Arnold used to be
Thanks for the upload! Amazing!
what a performance
Svend Karlsen is awesome. “Thor and Oden are with me”
*Odin
37:36 “your first bad event, what went wrong?”
Big Z: “oh it was for speed ☺️ not for power 😉”
Hahahahahahaha I love it.
Thanks for the upload!!
"If you can't deadlift, you're not a strongman." Someone should let Oberst know so he can finally quit😂
He pisses me off whenever he says deadlifts are bad!!!
Hahaha why does he get invited to WSM, he never competes in anything else.
He did
Because he’s good at running his mouth and stirring up controversy. I guess they figure someone who stirs the pot like he does would get viewers.
Thanks for this!
But we have Mateusz Kieliszkowski now. Future world stronges man in Arnold Classic too.
Except Mariusz never one the classic. He was a hell of a athlete, but was middle of the pack for just sheer brute strength.
Vasyl’s legs are massive here!
That 5th rep of Z's, just flew up 😮
He had 200kg+ in him that day, for sure
By the end, those guys wanted to punch the interviewer badly.
Colin has done a lot for Strongman but I have always found him a bit vexing.
Colin looked good back in the day
Handsome fellow.
@@Mr-qz7ky I'm 26 you creep, smh
10:19 exactly
Great channel bro. Keep them coming
Great to see again! It would be nice to see the 2003? as Mariusz put a lot of weight on for this Comp...
It wasn't filmed in 2003 unfortunately
great channel! Do you have more? the Arnold Strongman 2007 & 2009? would love to see it!!
This why Big Z is the GOAT and Pudzianowski was miles aways behind his back.
AMAZING 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪
You know what they say, "You have to clean it before you jerk it"... Words to live by.
Od Hogan looks jacked!
Do you mean Odd Haugen? My goodness your writing skills are horrible!
@@ChocolateMilk.. Hulk Nogan?
40:50 Z looks so cute when he says "I will beat Svend"
Mariusz giving up almost 40kg of body weight to Z and still able to get 4 axel presses. Insane.
Mariuz GOAT. I don't know does he hold any WR for now , but overall statistics and results are insane.

He was big cheater too.

The guys now are really strong
Mariusz Pudzianowski
he was the only one who put big z in trouble
It would be cool to save this video. Do you have the rights for them? Giants live YT channel just posted same video 7h ago.
Where do you get these tapes man?
Tore both hamstrings and pulled 1050 that’s over 470kg I dint think so 😅
Marius clearly disappointed because of the last event, he usually does much better at this kind of events
Believe it or not they have women now in strong women comp, doing 800lbs crazy 😮.
look at the crowd not a phone in sight
0:43 Damn
Man the commentator was just a beacon of positivity towards the competitors wasn't he. Maybe not.
I was thinking the same thing usually Colin is pretty on point but he was just downplaying everyone,
it was super negative the whole time
To tylko pokazuję 46:04 jak silny jest Kieliszkowski , on z tym nosidłem poszedł bez zająknięcia w kilka sekund.
A dużo większą ma dłoń?
Colin Bryce was wrong Mark Henry did 3 as Bill Kazmaier said.
Did Brian really said no American cleaned over head consecutively did he forget the competition he was in were mark henry cleaned it with ease 3 times 😂😂 collin said mark henry cleaned it 2 times no it was 3 he was the first to do it 3 times nobody but one person could clean it once mark henry did it 3 times he didn't use the continent lift like everybody else did he cleaned it henry proved he was the strongest man in that competition.
Damn, Thin Z in the house.
Thank You for the upload, it is funny how they could not get the Polish flag right throughout this super series seasom
" Good repetition there from Virastuk" Huh? He was doing a single deadlift Colin.
If someone argues that Mariusz was better than Big Z. I show them this.
Yup, Big Z was a much stronger man overall. Mariusz had more endurance and cardio, which is what won him so many WSM
At the Arnold? I don't think anyone argues that. But Pudz is undoubtedly the greatest at strongman as he didn't just beat z but he would dominate Z like it was easy in WSM, and would beat Z in the super series.

remind me again who is the only person in history to win 5 WSM? hmmm
