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.

[MBZ] Worlds Strongest Man

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

2016 became the first man to lift 500kg.

The 31-year-old Bjornsson, 31, completed the lift as the barbell bent and

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.

You can swap out the cluster on a 210 and it will show whatever is on 
it, so if they put in a lower mile cluster it would show the lower mile.

Re: [MBZ] Looks like a decent SL

[Clay via Mercedes]

74/75 are pretty bad if they have the catastrophic converter.  Djet is a system 
best left to experts.  Not something to be trifled with from the amount of cash 
it sucked out of my wallet.  The ’76 may not be a really bad SL, as it went 
back to mechanical injection, but does have the cat.  Swap an older set of 
pipes off the headers, and no more trouble with cooking the engine bay.

I am of an opinion that as long as the car runs and seems all there, then the 
older SL is just as good a purchase as could be made.  At this point, all the 
R107 are at least 31 years old and going to be somewhere on the basket case 
spectrum.  As my indy told me after performing PPI, drive it into the ground, 
it will cost too much to make it perfect.

Nothing really bad wrong with 76.  It's got the basic CIS injection
system, though it does have an underhood cat.  (Likely gutted long
ago, ours was.)

Re: [MBZ] Waterproof wire connectors

May be OK but I am dubious about any solder that melts at such a low temp.  
Ancor makes crimp connectors with adhesive-lined heat-shrink sleeves for marine 
applications.  I've had good luck with those Ancor products but they are pricey.

Re: [MBZ] Latest tractor test

Kaleb, I'm sure you know this but..   
Never allow the back wheels to leave the ground.  The front axle pivots on 
trunnions and provides no roll stability.  Once the back wheels get above the 
ground a lopsided front load can roll the whole tractor over onto its side, 
causing injury and engine damage.

Re: [MBZ] Looks like a decent SL

[OK Don via Mercedes]

It's '75-'76 with the cats under the hood. However, you can swap out
exhaust manifolds and exhaust system from a later engine and move the cat
under the floor.

Re: [MBZ] Amazon is floundering

[MG via Mercedes]

Thank you Allen,
That is interesting. The seller has three adds and 
only one is
shipped by Amazon. Amazon may only ship the item 
if you have

prime or pay for 2nd day.

I also see the Free return and wonder if Amazon is 
restocking
those items  and sending them out as new. That 
would account for
a lot of the comments of parts missing and torn or 
damaged boxes

that one sees in the reviews.
