when it comes to carrying heavy stuff for distance, or rather running with it, nobody has ever done it better than Pudzian

Good at figuring out events too, the modern strongman that reminds me most of him is either Oleksii Novikov or Mateusz Kieliszkowski.

One of the greatest of all time, whether you like it or not.

True. He is an atg but as many know when you look at the weights, events etc and the split between wsm and the other one (heavier and harder tbh) the top guys split and mariusz stayed at wsm. Hes probably 4 or 5 atg TBH. Big z and shaw are def ahead of him.

What a Humble Gaint. Had the privilege of meeting, working and introducing Marius back in 2000 WSM at the Stunning Sun City Resort, South Africa

Mariusz will always have a special place in my heart.

Marius was a mobile beast, no strongman even today moves like him. And to think this was after a year in the pokey after going vigilante on a whole mob

@dnegel yeah he got arrested after beating up some mob boss. And had to have prison time so pudz had to miss 2001 wsm because pudz was in prison.

the strongest man and best strongman of world strongest man history

I just remember there being an interview after an event when they asked him about how he was able to perform so well in some event and in his little english that he knows he said "When I lift, I win." This guy is a legend. If anyone has the link to it, I'd love to see it.

just noticed Pudzianowsk is wearing platform shoes for the Atlas stones ,@ 10:48

Mariusz was a true professional. Not just an athletic freak, but knew how to get the most out of every event. He wears raised shoes to make himself taller in the atlas stones, has 2 layers of cushion on his arms for the shield carry so it is more comfortable, used to baby oil his thighs to jack up the deadlift bar, etc etc.

@shanerichard5317

@@dnegel9546 if you watch some deadlift events Mariusz did, especially car deadlifts, he would pull the bar to just over his knee, then use his leverage to slide the bar up his legs (which was easier with smooth baby oil thighs) and lockout. It's more technical but can help grind out some extra reps - something Mariusz was one of the best at!

Yup, experience. Mariusz knew how to master practically every event. Event in those events where he wasn't the favorite, he would still be 3rd or 4th out of 10. A true machine.

Proud to be growing Up when pudzian was winning

Polska górą!!! 🇵🇱 PUDZIANOWSKI ❤❤❤CHAMPION 👏 🏆

How does the Mariusz used to say? "POLSKA GÓRĄ"! He fought not just for himself, but for Poles and country! Always proud of Motherland! Best wishes for you Mariusz and all the warriors 🤝👍

I thought bill casmeyer was my favorite until I seen Mario's poojanowski the strongest man ever and should probably be forever in the world

There is a reason he has most WSM titles

Both of them are in my heart but Mariusz is my favourite !

Marius was ans still amazing😳his biggest power is mind ,amazing mind power.

I couldn't wait to watch these on tv as a kid. They were so cool

Can't argue with 5 WSM titles.

Guy was just an animal 💪. I hope we get to see him knock Thor out at some point 😄

Stunning place for a final 😊

Don't ever let anyone say you were never the best because you're the best of all time and always will be you're better than Muhammad Ali I'm telling you you are the strongest polish man in the world and always will be amen
