Back in the 60s, he's a been perfect for a VW commercial. Instead they
had to use a skinny kid named Lou Alcindor.

Hafthor Bjornsson won the World’s Strongest Man in 2018
Icelandic actor and strongman Hafthor Bjornsson set a world record for
the deadlift on Saturday when he lifted 1,104 lb (501 kg) at Thor’s
Power Gym in Iceland.
Bjornsson, best known for his portrayal of Ser Gregor “The Mountain”
Clegane on Game of Thrones, broke the record previously held by Briton
Eddie Hall who in 2016 became the first man to lift 500kg.
The 31-year-old Bjornsson, 31, completed the lift as the barbell bent
and strained under the weights. He held the lift for two seconds
before letting go and roaring in delight.
“I believe today I could’ve done more, but what’s the point?”
Bjornsson said. “I’m happy with this. My family and friends, they were
happy with this, and I’ve decided to call it.”
Bjornsson, who is 6ft 9in and weighs 452 lb (205 kg), won the World’s
Strongest Man competition in 2018.

I wonder what kind of car he drives?
