Game of Thrones star, Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson, who’s better known as Ser Gregor Clegane or The Mountain, has won this year’s World’s Strongest Man competition.
The 29-year-old Icelandic athlete fought off stiff competition from Poland ’s Mateusz Kieliszkowski (2nd) and USA’s Brian Shaw (3rd).
Shaw won the competition in 2017.
Before his victory, the 6ft 9in. Björnsson has been in the top three of the competition every year since 2012.
After his victory, Björnsson wrote: “Don’t ever let someone tell you that you can’t do something. You got a dream, you gotta protect it. When people can’t do something themselves, they are going to tell you that you can’t do it. You want something, go get it. Period.“
