Hafthór Júlíus Björnsson, who plays "The Mountain" on "Game of Thrones," is showing once again why he is one of the strongest men on the planet.
Björnsson was nearly signed by the Colts in 2013 as a lineman, but turned to strongman competitions and the world of Westeros instead. At Iceland's Strongest Man competition, Björnsson tossed around Atlas Stones like they were bags of groceries.
Iceland's Strongest Man 2015 - Atlas Stones First day was yesterday. I won all three events. 5 more to go today.

It was no surprise to see Björnsson add another title to his list of accomplishments.
Iceland's Strongest Man 5th year in a row. Only man to achieve that. Congratz to Ari Gunnarsson 2nd place & Fannar Smári 3rd.

Luckily there was no event for face smashing. "The Mountain" has shown he would win that one.
