In addition to potentially being the final time Bjornsson competes as a strongman, this contest is significant for other reasons. If successful, Bjornsson will earn his tenth win at the event, becoming the first man to do so. This will break his tie with Magnus ver Magnusson, solidifying him as the best strongman in the country’s history.
There will be a ton of awesome athletes looking to spoil these plans, though. It will be exciting to see how the competition shakes out. Regardless, there seems to be a ton of buzz around the contest, especially as there has not been a ton of action in strength sports recently.
Who do you think will win the Iceland’s Strongest Man? Do you believe that this will be the last time Hafthor Bjornsson competes in strongman?
