Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson is an Icelandic professional strongman. With 31 international wins and 127 world records, he is the third most decorated strongman and the most prolific record breaker in the history of strength sports. He is the only person to have won the Arnold Strongman Classic, the Europe's Strongest Man, and the World's Strongest Man titles in the same calendar year and holds the all-time world record deadlift of 505 kg. Revered for his brute strength and widely renowned as one of the greatest strength athletes of all-time, many strength analysts and experts regard Hafþór as "the strongest man to have ever lived". Hafþór has also appeared on television as an actor, portraying "The Mountain" Ser Gregor Clegane in the HBO series Game of Thrones for five seasons. He is often simply referred to as "Thor" or "the Mountain", the latter due to his Game of Thrones character and his own massive size. In March 2023, Hafþór was inducted into the International Sports Hall of Fame. Read more
