Who are the 4 strongest men of all time?
This is a difficult one!! We would say the strongest man in history is Big Z (Žydrūnas Savickas). Big Z has over 80 International wins including 4x World's Strongest Man titles. We have Bill Kazmaier (Kaz) is coming in second. The American Powerlifter was the first star to emerge in Strongman establishing world records in the deadlift and log lift as well as winning World's Strongest Man 3 times. Magnús Ver Magnússon was a true all rounder of his era, even winning World's Strongest Man on his first attempt in 1991. He also is one of two strongmen to win 3 titles back to back in 94, 95 and 96 making him our third strongest man of all time. Coming in 4th we have Eddie Hall. Despite Eddie winning World's Strongest Man in 2017, arguably what he is known best for is being the first person to lift an insane 500kg in 2016, an unbelievable feat of strength! In competition, no other strongman has become within 16kg of lifting this weight 7 years later.
