Game of Thrones actor Hafthor Bjornsson has set a world deadlifting record by lifting 501kg.
Bjornsson, a powerlifter who portrayed Ser Gregor “The Mountain” Clegane in the HBO series, broke the record at his gym in his native Iceland.
He lifted the barbell for two seconds, before dropping the weights and roaring in delight.
The event was streamed by sports broadcaster ESPN and filmed for Bjornsson’s YouTube channel.
