Here is one who definitely bears his nickname. Hafthor Julius Björnsson, aka "The Mountain" in Game of Thrones , set a new deadlift world record on Saturday, reports the RMC Sport website in particular.
Sacred "strongest man in Europe" since 2014 and "strongest man in the world" in 2018 (he was overthrown the following year by the American Martins Licis), the Icelandic managed to lift 501 kg this weekend, beating by a kilo the previous record established in 2016 by the Briton Eddie Hall.

La Montagne took up this challenge in its own gymnasium in Iceland. The former basketball player, a fan of bodybuilding and weightlifting, measuring almost 2.05 m and weighing nearly 200 kg (it must be that), therefore lifted half a ton in a relaxed manner. "I think I could have done more, but what would it have been for?" ", He said after this incredible performance. And you, what record did you set during confinement?
