"The Mountain" From "Game Of Thrones" Just Became The Strongest Man In The World

"It’s my passion and my dream to become the world’s strongest man,” the 6'9 Björnsson told the Times.

Björnsson competed in the annual "World's Strongest Man" competition eight times over the years. He had come in second place and third place, but never won.

The competition consists of 16 events, including "pulling a truck or an airplane, carrying a refrigerator, lifting an Atlas stone weighing over 1,000 pounds, and lifting huge logs."

"Behind every strongman is a team. Team Iceland came out in force this year to push Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson - The Mountain to take home the #WSM title! 👊," the event page said.
