Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson aka Thor and otherwise known as “The Mountain” from Game of Thrones, recently shattered the world record for keg tossing, which he previously held the title for. Thor, who stands at nearly 400 pounds of pure muscle, threw a 33 lb. (approx. 15 kg) beer keg almost 25 feet (approx. 7 m) in the air; ”It was easy! I could have broken the roof! It was amazing to do this in front of a great crowd. Bring on Europe’s Strongest Man,” Björnsson casually remarked after the display. View the record feat in the video above, and watch The Mountain also fight head-to-head against UFC fighter Conor McGregor.
