If I remember Thor said it was a million dollars each, obviously they'll add to that with sponsorships, etc. But not a bad payday for two dudes that lift heavy shit.

To be fair, his Strongman weight for a lot of years was #390ish, he sorta forced himself into the mid #400's when he started to think about the deadlift record, and a powerlifting title a few years ago. He was under #250 when he played semi-pro basketball.

No, it's all in the mind.  They just trained harder because they believed the steroids worked.

He was fat and force feeding ungodly amounts of food. It's not like he's off-off, just eating and juicing much less.

True, if you imagine hard enough you don't even have to train at all.  Read The Secret.

You know there is something to that secret shit. When I truly believe in what I want and I’m extremely positive it usually happens.I know I will get shit for saying that but it’s true.obviously you were joking about the training thing but otherwise I do believe in manifesting.

The problem with The Secret is that it is just the 1st step to manifesting something.  You actually have to DO something to succeed and this is why most who read the book never succeeded at anything.

For functional people it's called setting a goal or target and taking the necessary steps to achieve it.

Its all the believe and achieve bullshit that goes with it, if you are a quadraplegic you are not going to be Mr Olympia no matter how much you believe it.

It took me forever to find this, and my laptop is literally hanging on a thread right now [and my little girl is here].  Normally I'd screenshot this photo and crop it in MS Paint, but check out Hafthor's father and grandfather:

https://www.instagram.com/p/BG7zmy_uhOC

^ So it's all just genetic then?  Is that how this game [life] works?

Also, where is Darren?  Who would win in a fight - Hafthor or a top UFC welterweight?

Sherdog feels strongly that Hafthor would beat Conor McGregor.  Khabib is another animal, and he wasn't discussed in that context, from the threads I read.  But the consensus on Sherdog is that a WSM level strongman would beat a top lightweight.  I would think any welterweight or heavier would beat a top strongman though.

The abs/thigh pose may present some problems, along with the front double bi, side tri, rear double bi, most muscular, front lat spread, rear lat spread, etc

That hypothetical fight intrigues me.

I think Georges St-Pierre would rape fellow French Canadian and 9x Canada's Strongest Man, J-F Caron [who placed 3rd at WSM this year, and would have been 10x CSM, but I don't think CSM was held this year].

But at some point, size does overcome skill...so the lightweight vs. 400+lb strongman question intrigues me.

I would think McGregor would beat Hafthor though.  Not sure on rape him - but beat him in a street fight, I would think.
