The Strongest Man in History

When I first saw the previews, I didn't think I would like this show. I figured "a bunch of meatheads showing off". I couldn't have been more wrong. These guys are intelligent and very entertaining. The respect they have for one another is heartwarming. Their feats of strength are AMAZING! Truly seem to be a bunch of good guys. I'm hooked and look forward to another season.

Excellent show. The sportsmanship is amazing. No drama. Awesome feats of strength. I use to watch the strongman competitions when I was younger. And this is that at its highest level. The only reason I didn't give it a 10 was because there was no heads up it was being filmed in Virginia. I would have traveled a hour to watch these guys live if it was an option. Always rooting for Nick!

Such amazing interaction between all these guys. Highly entertaining and a must watch.

I admit, I'm a fan of strongman competitions and often watch youtube videos where Brian and Eddie bicker back and forth. But all 4 man are beasts of nature and help enlighten viewers on the feasibility of feats of strength throughout history.

This show does have 4 of the strongest men in the world participating and recreating some of the craziest feats of strength and giving history and context to those events. It stars: Nick Best a dominate powerlifter turned strongman. Robert Oberst the second strongest American and perennial competitor in World's Stongest man. Eddie "the beast" Hall the man who holds the deadlift record at 500kg and winner of World's Stongest man. Finally Brian Shaw, who has won worlds strongest man 4 times. You will never find a sports show with this level of talent. This would be like having a show about basketball with Michael Jordan, LeBron James, Magic Johnson and Larry Bird recreating and discussing some of the best moments in basketball history.

The stars also have great chemistry because they have known and compeated against each other for years. This show demonstrates some of the indominable will of the human spirit. I can't get enough. I hope it shines a brighter light on an uderated sport.
