I do think this year we will see him establish himself as the strongest man of all time

How does one secure that title though? Its all subjective. For me, Z has that crown currently due to his dominance of strongman over a 10 year period. It would be difficult for Thor to surpass that in one year.

Surely the strongest ever and greatest strongman are different?

Will be max deadlift at all three major comps...Kielz maybe win Europe's.


The only one I could see maybe taking one of the titles from Thor. Still would have my money on Thor. Can’t wait to see it

Kieliszkowski smashed a 145kg dumbbell. That event looks his for certain

Thor is currently all round stronger than Z at his strongest though.

Z is the greatest ever. Shaw is the best ever. Thor is currently the strongest ever.

True, they're not necessarily the same. It depends how you define strongest. I just cant imagine Thor making a mockery of a 150 kg block press, fingals fingers or log press event like Z did in his prime. He was so far ahead of his peers in terms of brutal power.

End of an era.

I actually think Thor is pretty impressive at pressing...200kg strict press with a barbell...when Eddie broke the axle record Thor was also impressive that night. At WSM 2019 with his injured foot he strict pressed a 155kg log(guess) about 10x.

His pressing looks better than ever at the moment. I guess we will see at Europe's.

Yes I got your meaning and agree 100%

Z is the GOAT, but this version of Thor would be too much for him imo

The evolution of sport

Z is the greatest ever. Shaw is the best ever. Thor is currently the strongest ever.


I think current Thor is better than any version of Shaw and I am a Shaw fanboy

I put Shaw as the best ever because of the success he attained across a whole decade and the fact that he really took the sport to a different level in terms of professionalism and having no weaknesses.

I agree this version of Thor beats Shaw at his best. Hence me rating him as the strongest man who has ever lived.
