If you have been involved in Strength Sports at all for the last 2 years then you should know who the man simply referred to as THOR is. The man is outstanding as a Strongman and in less than 8 years he has gone from competing at The Arnold Amateur show to winning World's Strongest Man with an amazing body transformation to match. Standing nearly 7 feet tall and well over 400 lbs AND looking like a model and an athlete at the same time...it is hard not to respect the guy. But the year of 2017 was a year of controversy for him. He threw a fit at WSM 2017 which gave him the reputation as being a drama complainer. People made fun of him because he brought an entire "possee" with him to WSM and a chef and shirts and I heard rumors of The Laker Girls being there for the duration only to see him not take home the top spot. Fast forward 1 year and a group of other athletes are now following in his footsteps. I guess it is great for laughs till you realize that he is at the top and still making progress. Either way, he lost a lot of fans through 2017 and a lot of people that met him at different conventions walked away with bad impressions of him. So...let me tell you about HIS BIGGEST LIE OF 2017!
