Is there nothing that Game of Thrones strongman Hafthor Julius Bjornsson can’t do? Because frankly we’re beginning to wonder.

In fact, the Icelandic actor – who plays Gregor ‘The Mountain’ Clegane in the HBO hit – has won the title of Iceland’s Strongest Man for the fifth year in a row.

And he did it like this:

Yes, Hafthor won himself yet another title by shifting five Atlas stones in less than 20 seconds – and picking them up as though they were lightweight.


He was clearly pleased with his efforts too, judging by the way he promptly ripped his shirt off in celebration.

It’s not the first honour that Hafthor has found himself on the receiving end of this year after the 6ft 9 inch actor was also crowned the World’s Strongest Viking.



The 26-year-old carried a log weighing 650kg (1,433lbs) and 10metres (30-foot) in length, for five steps to win the title, later declaring ‘NOTHING CAN STOP ME! NOTHING CAN BREAK ME!’

Seriously folks, this is someone you don’t want to mess with…
