So
finally,
Laurence
Shahlaei
of
Swindon
moved
the
'Mountain'.
Well,
it's
strange
to
hear
but
it
actually
happened
in
real,
when
the
'Mountain'
from
Game
Of
Thrones,
Hafbor
Bjornsson,
lost
the
title
of
the
strongest
man
in
Europe
to
Laurence
Shahlaei.
The
two
times
title
winner,
who
is
also
known
for
the
infamous
character
'The
Mountain'
in
the
Game
Of
Thrones
TV
series,
and
originally
hails
from
Iceland,
failed
to
make
it
for
the
third
time
in
a
row.
Laurence
Shahlaei,
also
known
as
the
'Big
Loz'
is
32
years
old
with
a
gigantic
stature
of
6ft
2in
height
and
145
kg
weight,
happens
to
be
the
first
Englishman
to
grab
this
title
in
almost
27
years
after
just
recovering
from
a
severe
injury
just
a
week
ago.
"I've
had
a
rough
few
years
with
injuries
and
to
come
back
and
win
Europe's
strongest
man
has
just
meant
the
world
to
me," he
said.
He
was
all
elated
to
win
this
title
and
full
of
praise
for
his
fellow
-
Hafbor
Bjornsson,
from
whom
he
snatched
the
fame.
"He's
a
great
strongman,"
as
he
was
quoted
saying
after
winning
the
title.
"But
it
was
my
day
and
it
felt
really
good
to
win."
