''The day Swindon Strongman, Big LOZ, took on the Mountain'' aka Laurence Shahlaei and Hafthor Bjornsson A ''David vs Goliath'' story that shocked the World Hafthor was then the two time champion. 00:00 Athletes Intros 02:00 Event 1 Highlights of World Deadlift Championships 08:52 Event 2 Frame Walk 18:38 Event 3 Log press 27:20 Event 4 Car Walk 39:44 Event 5 Atlas Stones The Sun Newspaper + Telegraph both wrote: ‘’Swindon man beats The Mountain to Europe's Strongest Man title’ The underdog story was so popular, even Mike Tyson retweeted it, and praised the much smaller Swindon-based Dad Well, Laurence Shahlaei, aka Big Loz, stepped up to the impossible task. BUT this contest looked finished British star Eddie Hall pulled out after Event 1 Hall was 1 of 2 favourites for the 2016 title, but Hall’s deadlift of 500kg in event 1 totally exhausted him and he pulled out. This meant the main Favourite + 2 x European Champion - Hafthor Julius Bjornsson was left in an almost unbeatable position. Despite his power and size he had a points lead from the deadlift and there were just 4 events to go. What happened next was a shock for many. This is one of the most epic performances in strongman. BIG LOZ (or even UNCLE LOZ nowadays) hadn't won his National title for 3 years, Shahlaei was giving up 7 inches and 50 kilos (110 lbs) to the Icelandic and twice European Champion. Thor - as he is often known - stands 6 foot 9 inches tall and at that time weighed in at over 420lbs LOCATION: First Direct Arena in Leeds. #strongman #GiantsLive #WorldsStrongestManQualifying Apart of Giants Live - The Official 'World's Strongest Man' Qualifying Tour Visit GIANTS LIVE at www.giants-live.com
