Born Strong

“Born Strong” chronicles the journey of the four most powerful men in the world. Annually, the Arnold Strongman Classic determines the victor in the ultimate strength challenge. This year’s competition is notable, as each contender weighs over 400 pounds. Zydrunas Savickas from Lithuania, aged 40, is recognized as the Strongest Man Ever, though he might be past his peak. American Brian Shaw, the reigning champion, stands at 6’8″ and weighs 425 pounds, appearing ready to defend his title. Eddie Hall from England is the “hungry wolf,” eager to claim victory, declaring, “I’ll do anything. I’ll die if I have to.” Lastly, there’s Hafthor Bjornsson from Iceland, known for his role as the Mountain in Game of Thrones. He is the youngest but possibly the most promising. Arnold Schwarzenegger, the event’s host and a former bodybuilding legend, remarks, “It’s great to see these Monsters.” “Born Strong” captures the intense drama as these extraordinary titans face off.
