The Mountain from Game of Thrones can lift 71 stone in weight

Gregor Clegane is a beast of a man.

AFTER THIS WEEK’s episode of Game of Thrones, we’d probably do anything Ser Gregor Clegane aka The Mountain asked us to (there are spoilers in that link by the way).

And now, as if we needed any more convincing of his terrifying strength, there’s a video of actor Hafþór Júlíus “Thor” Björnsson lifting (6′ 9”, 420lbs) lifting 71 stone (994 pounds).

Seventy.

One.

Stone.

Integrated Fitness / YouTube

Björnsson is the world’s second strongest man. Just ask Oberyn Martell.

    The fact that they say “by default” means that there is probably a legal loophole that says they can.

    @Colette Kearns: yeah. That happened to me. Tested the theory by opening Facebook and talking about skiing, something I have never done before. Then with an hour, skiing gear for sale ads.

    @Peter Cavey: You agree to this in the T&C’s of Facebook which most people have never read.

    @Colette Kearns: Not quite !! if you use Facebook platforms -such as messanger or whatsApp then they can do that – but if you just a call your friend on your mobile and have a conversation Facebook have no way of targeting you as you infer in your comment.

    Wouldn’t trust any of them as far as I could throw them. Think I read recently that Data has now become more valuable than any other commodity …. scary the amount of wealth these big techs are sitting on! Still google assistant is a very very impressive piece of technology
