Worlds Strongest Man 30 Years of Pain part 3/5

[AthleteCentral]

Kaz was the stronger competitor. Period.

[LDP060681]

@AthleteCentral yeah but ironically strength isn't the main thing with wsm...it's also about flexibility, endurance, mobility, fitness, and also strength of character.

[Kobbain]

@AthleteCentral

Jón Páll won 8 out of 10 events in Pure Strength 1987, I think Jón Páll was a much better strongman.

[Roxy11121]

kaz is scary, i wish i had his intimidation and leg stregnth. i would be the great linemen

[buttercremehonda]

Thumbs up if you think Jon Pall Sigmarsson looked like a super ripped version of The Sandman (Jim Fullington)

[elvisflorian]

Kaz would have won if it weren't for the tuna fish grip challenge

[blixensd]

@Nikon05 Why do you repeat me?

[Nikon05]

@blixensd you said the opposite

[blixensd]

@Nikon05 I certainly did not. If you read the comments i made before the one you commented on yourself, then you'd have the whole plot, instead of just commenting in middle of a post.

[caledfwlch]

i like how these ex champions are so cheeky

[GSXRICHY]

Jón Páll Sigmarsson pushed himself to his Grave. That show the most dedication ever

Rest In Peace Jón Páll Sigmarsson :'(

[GeordieAndProud]

O D Wilson was cheated out of the title really

[TimpBizkit]

Ironic Jon Pall being let down by one of the smaller but most important muscles in the body

[emadrio]

black guy lost a race, lol

[0Zcrow]

0:24 EPIC!!! FAIL

[GlobalAmazingNews]

Why don't they mention O.D Wilsons tragic death two years before Jon Páll? RIP Jon Páll Sigmarsson and O.D Wilson!

[SaraDupastara]

mariusz pudzianowski will own all :)

[blixensd]

If i was put beside Jon pall with no weight on my back and same with him.. And we took a running contest.. i'd woop his arse so badly ... But that doesnt make me stronger then me. Its only because i am alot smaller(in weight that is). I'm not even training that much. But i'd with 100% run faster then him because i have less weight to carry around with. If i wanted to challenge him in weight liften for that matter, i'd have no chance. And the "fat guy" is just stronger then Jon.

[gmanchannel2]

It's so sad to see so many of these strength legends are no longer with us.

Why is that? Have they done any medical studies on the strongman lifestyle?  Heavy lifting? Diet? Steroids? Other factors? Why is the mortality rate so high?

[IceDawg101]

@gmanchannel2 people die phaggot, no one is immortal, there are many that are living today, suck as bill, so before you try to point lifters deaths to steroids/etc. use your common sense, do some research, more ppl die from peanut poisoning than roids idiot....thats like saying that office workers have high morality rates due to typing....

[FitnessGuru91]

@IceDawg101 no reason to dis him he asked a question i think ur the faggot

[astout76]

@gmanchannel2

the biggest reason, it's aerobic vs. anaerobic training.... these men are HUGE in anaerobic, but have less aerobic strength (endurance) than other athletes. Fast twitch muscle is typically anaerobic, these men have an advantage of extreme strength, at the cost of endurance, slow twitch muscles. However, many cyclists and "long distance" athletes have also died young, so it too must be a matter of predisposition to diseases and just plain old life situations.

[TrrOtaku]

you can see the muscle going onto jon pall year after year, dangerous pushing that hard

[MikeMcGantic]

fucking awesome story...great upload...we appreciate it!

[conbo70]

lol massive heart attack from supplements and caloric intake, steriods not food and supplements

[22bartas]

did jon pall die from steroids by any chance?

[TheDezmona]

@22bartas Nope, benchpressing without a spotter. Plus they take drug tests in strongman competitions.

[icharuswing]

@TheDezmona no they don't

[dNullMe]

@22bartas I was thinking that too. there's no way these guys didn't take roids...

[Verification11]

@22bartas No Conjenital heart Disease .... it runs in the family

[22bartas]

@Verification11 yeah, yeah, whatever you say dude

[youngfred116]

rip big hommie. shit comes at a high price sometimes. You got to figure how bad you want shit.

[oceanic815wannabe]

The Jon Pall incident brought tears to my eyes.

[TauruVikingur]

that brick marathon race in the 1990 WSM finals was a fucking joke...OD was the strongest that year...

[TauruVikingur]

1990 OD Wilson dominated the WSM competition but lost in the marathon race to Jon Pall...OD Wilson

[martuh123]

Hahah, geniaal. Bij 00:34 zie je iemand met een friesland trui aan :P!

[Denver542]

Jon Pall was the best

[xMarucsFenixX]

RIP Jón Páll Sigmarsson. One of the best Strongman ever. I have watched Strongman competitions since 96 or so but I haven´t heard of him before. Sad that he died so young.

[ShirayuriSky]

I am very moved by Jón Páll, his personality and attitude have made a great impact on my life, he inspires me to keep on lifting. I am glad I got to know about him, and I'd definitely recommend anyone to get to know more about him.

It's great to see some clips of him I've never seen before :) Thank you for everything Jón Páll and rest in peace, you true Viking warrior!

[kyrtis1994]

this is the first i hear that hard training causes heart attacks

[Nikon05]

O.D Wilson died at 37 as well from cardiac arrest. Its a shame some of these guys die young because of doing what they love

[julian73de]

"huge calorie and "supplement" intakes..." hmmm

[westiesmum69]

what did he expect ? Years of steroid abuse

[ChesterFanningChorno]

The biggest ripoff of all time was the brick race. Absurd event that favored Jon Pall. OD Wilson WAS the strongest man that year.

[Raggi86]

@ChesterFanningChorno

Then why didn't he win then ?

[ChesterFanningChorno]

@Raggi86

DUH, is all I can say. Re-read my statement and THINK about it.

[helthuismartin]

OD was stronger.

[vineethonkan]

LOL at 0:28-30

[Cyranorick]

injecting chemistry into your body is no test of strength at all, sorry...

[Nikon05]

@Cyranorick injecting 'chemistry' doesnt turn you from a weakling to a superhuman. the training does

[strongi]

Ekkert mál fyrir Jón Páll!

[Sportsman4920]

You are correct. The truck pull is a significant test of strength. You need powerful calves, glutes, quads, lats, shoulders, biceps and forearms. However, I stand by my original statement that a quarter mile run around a track with a relatively light weight on one's back is not a significant test of strength.

[needabloodyname]

Thats not the "sack race" we had a school haahah

[mra2z]

This is no haul for Jon Pall.

[swansalot]

RIP Jón Páll Sigmarsson, forever in the with us the strongmen.

Hans, 20years old Strongman

[TauruVikingur]

@swansalot Islenska Vikingur!!!

[mike2009tyson]

@swansalot how did he die very sad

[fitzyking1]

R.I.P Sigmarsson worlds strongest man ever.

[DonGato27]

Yes, Sigmarsson is the strongest, and, sincerely for me, more than Kazmaier.

[PowerForGood]

Jon Paul was the best. ...my opinion is that he was the best. RIP Joh Paul.

[Sportsman4920]

The track run at the end of the 1990 final was kind of B.S. It is one thing to have a loading race or farmers carry where shoulder and grip strength are being tested. However, this was simply cardio endurance with a light weight that had virtually no test of strength.

[DJBouncey]

Yeah. I was thining about it my self!

Jon Paul was very lucky that the last event was the track run.

That black man was the real winner in that contest and not Jon Paul!!!!!!!!!!

[needabloodyname]

"virtually no test of strengh"

Sorry, but have you tried pulling a truck? A FUCKING TRUCK

[davidf35]

indeed, quite sad OD never got the title before he died, he was robbed.

[glcb7]

@Sportsman4920 true...had that event not been in there o.d. probably would have won that year...nothing against jon pall but o.d. absolutely destroyed that field as far as brute strength events go

[Kobbain]

@Sportsman4920

But strongman is about endurance too... and it was certainly not light weight for someone to run with.

[timothysnow5]

@Kobbain

this is true. However, this tested cardio endurance not muscle endurance. Strongman is about muscle endurance

[LDP060681]

@Sportsman4920 when sigmarsson embraces od you can see he knows od was robbed.

[lausungenwpww]

RIP Jon Pall

[bhhfe]

Jon Pall you said it best,"I am the strongest!" and you always will be buddy. R.I.P Viking.

[pdsk8]

RIP Jon Paul
