The City of Steel welcomes the Return of the Iron Men!
Britain’s Strongest Man is coming back to the FlyDSA Arena on Saturday 19th January 2019 for the ultimate showdown of strength.
The contest is part of the Official World’s Strongest Man Arena Tour known as Giants Live. It will be filmed for Channel FIVE’s Christmas Series that includes the World’s Strongest Man.
Last year, Giants Live packed in over 6,500 fans at the Fly DSA Arena and Britain’s Strongest Man 2019 could well be bigger yet!
The best of Britain take on 5 x herculean tests of strength to be crowned Britain’s Strongest Man 2019. Log Lifting and the Atlas Stones are two of the more famous events we shall see return.
We have a truly awesome line-up of iconic British heavyweights ready to hoist stones, throw kegs, carry cars and lift HEAVY metal to prove they have the brute determination to secure their place at the World’s Strongest Man competition.
Can Big Loz claim his 3rd Britain’s Strongest Man title? Will Graham Hicks finally break his duck and claim a much deserved win? Or will the evergreen Mark Felix shock everyone and become the oldest ever Britain’s Strongest Man?
Join us at the FlyDSA Arena in Sheffield and witness what is set to be a truly epic show – heavy metal will be shifted, stones will be lifted, records broken and 12 men pushed to their absolute limits in the ultimate test of strength.
The roar of the crowd, the atmosphere of the big Arena – this is the BIGGEST stage for UK strongmen and the athletes are ready for a battle of GARGANTUAN proportions!

The Road to Sparta: Running in the Footsteps of the Original Ultramarathon Man
The Road to Sparta: Running in the Footsteps of the Original Ultramarathon Man
In 490 BCE Pheidippides ran for 36 hours straight from Athens to Sparta to seek help in defending Athens from a Persian invasion. He was hailed as a hero and his run stands enduringly as one of greatest physical accomplishments in history.
Dean Karnazes honours this achievement and his own Greek heritage by attempting this ancient journey in modern times. His account of running the gruelling Spartathlon, fuelled only by the figs, olives and meats available to Pheidippides, will captivate even the most sedentary readers.

Hafthor Julius Bjornsson has won World’s Strongest Man 2018
The Mountain is the strongest man on “Game of Thrones.” Now he’s the strongest man in the real world as well.
Hafthor Julius Bjornsson took a break from playing Gregor Clegane, the brutal warrior known as the Mountain, and won the long-running World’s Strongest Man competitionon Sunday in the Philippines.
Bjornsson, 29, has been a regular in the competition and had three second- and three third-place finishes over the years, but had never previously won.
“It’s my passion and my dream to become the world’s strongest man,” he said in a 2016 profile in which he shared his workout secrets with The New York Times. “I would like to win the World’s Strongest Man competition, as you would win best writer in the world. Is that a title that exists?”
Bjornsson certainly qualifies as a figurative Mountain. He checks in at 6-feet-9-inches and 400 pounds. But he is far from the merciless monster he depicts on television. A scene in which he crushed a foe’s skull with his bare hands “actually made my heart hurt,” he said in 2014.
The World’s Strongest competition will be shown in the United States on CBS beginning in June.
Among the events Bjornsson contested this year were the Car Deadlift, the Truck Pull and a grueling Loading Race in which he hauled anchors, anvils and other heavy objects.
After the victory, Bjornsson posted a photograph of himself lifting the trophy on his Instagram account, adding “Want to thank all of my family, friends and fans for supporting me along the way.”
The World’s Strongest Man was originally a made-for-TV American-based event in the 1970s, held at Universal Studios in California. The first year included another strongman turned actor, Lou Ferrigno, who played the Incredible Hulk on TV. Ferrigno placed fourth.
The event expanded internationally after a few years and is now respected and established with a dedicated core of fans.
Iceland did well in the competition in the 1980s and ’90s: the musclemen Jon Pall Sigmarsson and Magnus ver Magnusson won 8 contests in 11 years. But no Icelander had won since 1996, until Sunday.

Ultramarathon Man: Confessions of an All-Night Runner
Ultramarathon Man: Confessions of an All-Night Runner
In one of his most ambitious physical efforts to date, Dean Karnazes attempted to run 50 marathons, in 50 states, in 50 days to raise awareness of youth obesity and urge Americans of all fitness levels to “take that next step.”
“UltraMarathon Man: 50 Marathons – 50 States – 50 Days”, a Journeyfilm documentary, follows Dean’s incredible step-by-step journey across the country.
Ultrarunning legend Dean Karnazes has run 262 miles-the equivalent of ten marathons-without rest. He has run over mountains, across Death Valley, and to the South Pole-and is probably the first person to eat an entire pizza while running. With an insight, candor, and humor rarely seen in sports
