@quadcatfly nope he had a genetic condition to make such a thing happen! but on more important note, i know this is american website, but think about this, whenever a girl has a video showing off her body, or strength, physique, everyone says cool, wonderful, etc. why is it when a guy does the same, esp. of world class athlete like Jon Pall everyone is hating and saying crazy stuff, i don't see neg. comments on deaths of Nascar/Grandprix race drivers, a far more risky sport in terms of death!
@kalai131 I am thinking it is because a muscle bound human is seen as a threat to the average joe out there, hence the hating, i hear a quote from a famous politician, who says "a person's true power is by how many people hate him not how many who love him." Every great bodybuilder has always said "Loved by women and children, and scorned with jealousy and hate from the average man." An average man is always jealous of a muscle bound man of strength because it exposes their own insecurities.
I have the full movie uploaded, I out a video response below. Check it out and enjoy! A great film about a truly great man who will be greatly missed! RIP JPS!!!
The quote is "There is no reason to be alive if you can't do deadlift!"
And Jon Pall owned Kazmaier and anyone. Bill Kazmaier won the WSM 1980, 1981, 1982 - 3 times. Jon Pall Sigmarsson took place the first time in 1983 (second place, winner was geoff capes), then won it 1984, 1986, 1988, 1990. 1987 there was no WSM-contest, but there was the Pure Strength contest between Capes, Kazmaier and Jon Pall to define the strongest man of all times. Jon Pall won 8 out of 10 events.
Try avoiding ad hominen attacks. It makes you look like a fool. Regardless of what I can do, JPS was juicing. My numbers are irrelevant to the point pal.
And the response was directed at the acusations of Puj being on roids. They are all on roids. It wasn't an attack on JP as much as a defense of Puj. Deal with it.
it would be interesting to see where between 1982 and 1988 Sigmarsson surpassed Kazmaier i think Kazmaier had a few more wins in him much respect to both men though
his charisma charm and pleasant manor had made him a croud favorite wherever he went.
my father was a neighbour of geoff capes and geoff told him once that jon did knew that he will die young but despite that he set himself a goal to do whatever he wants to do in life and to fully enjoy the time that is left for him to live.
he is an idol for many people in the world me included and he will always be remmembered.
I think jon pall looked biggest during this pure strength competition becuz he was a little heavier and had really short hair s i think he looked even bigger and cooler than usual....but thats just my opinion
Jon Pall was a legend, 4 times world strongest man before of age 32, he had least 10 good years in the sport if he had lived longer. Kaz was maybe stronger in power lifting events, but Jon Pall could deliver the overall power better than anybody in the world. Jon Pall was great athlete, Kaz had too much muscles.
I grew up with my uncle who is even today a power lifter. All we ever watched was the strong man. My uncles favorite was Big Bill, mine was the Great Jón Páll. But, we loved them both.
RIP Jón Páll, may you still be deadlifting up in heaven.
You can watch some bodybuilding parts of Jón Páll in the video "best of john pall". There you can see him back in 1988. It begins after 1 minute and 10 seconds. It's from the documentary about Jón Páll.
My Idol, my hero and all time favorite strong guy. He got me and my brother into lifting weights. There will never be another viking like this guy.

the whole deal about kaz not being invited into the worlds strongest man and MABEY being able to win more is more common then people think.
the exact same thing that happened to kaz happen to magnus ver magnusson in the 90's
he wouldve no doubt won AT LEAST 1 more competition. but he wasnt invited after his 3rd win in a row

So Jon Pall is the 5time-winner and the greatest strongman who ever lived.
