Whats does it take to win Worlds Strongest Man? Hall had to flip a 1,080lb tire for time, Viking Press 352lbs for 15 reps, Squat 700lbs for 15 reps, Pull a plane, deadlift 1,042lbs and load 5 atlas stones for a reported 45,000 first place purse.

 







Eddie Hall has said in the past that once he wins Worlds Strongest Man he will retire from competing at that level and confirmed it with his post on Instagram.

 

I can’t say how I’ve done at wsm but I can say I’m now retired from wsm! I’ll still be on the British scene for many years to come and I thank all my fans and sponsors and my family and friends to the moon and back. Massive thanks to my wife who I dearly love and ow a lot of my success to her. Also my manager Mo Chaudry not only changed my life for the better but one of my best friends.

Does this mean Eddie Hall has retired? No it he says will compete on the British scene for many years but if he ever plans to return to Worlds Strongest Man? We will just have to wait and see.
