People keep saying that if Brian can win his 5th, he will be the greatest... people keep saying if Tom can win a couple more and the Arnold's, he will go down as the greatest... to them I say, Look at that man's trophy room!! Big Z is the greatest because he has not only won the biggest shows multiple times, but most of the littler shows as well. The only contests he has not won are the ones that got started after his semi-retirment or was not invited too. I LOVE all Strongmen! I love this sport! And I cheer for everyone. But Biz Z is Big Z.

@jesswalton6094

@@guanjun1178 I think a lot of that stemmed from Brian's wife, Kerry. She was formerly married to another strongman who had passed away, and I think Big Z was close buddies with him. I can't say with 100% certainty but I recall reading something along those lines a year or so back on a reddit thread. I think some of the beef came from that, and them being top competitors probably is what brought it over to a boil.

"The gym is soo far, like ten minute" ~Big Z

there is something extremely graceful about lifting with silence

Big Z's trophy room puts every other strongman's to shame. It's not even close.

@7:28 - Big Z casually mentioning he has something like 250 trophies & it being difficult to remember all the trophies.
