Bulk up your trivia with our quick guide to the (very) big names in strongman

A/ Mariusz Pudzianowski Wins:

The GOAT dominated the noughties before retiring to play rugby in his native Poland. Not someone we’d like to tackle.

B/ Magnús Ver Magnússon Wins:

First crowned in 1991, Magnússon knows about longevity. He won his last Iceland’s strongest man title in 2004, aged 41.

C/ Brian Shaw Wins:

At 6ft 8in and 193kg, Shaw is a giant. To maintain this size he eats 12,000kcal a day. That’s equivalent to about 24 Big Macs.

D/ Eddie Hall Wins:

Hall isn’t small. Since the age of 16 he has strived to match his age to weight in stones. Impressive now that he’s 29.
