Eddie, this is an extraordinary honesty and the ability to talk about these things is going to do so much for so many people. Our guest is a former world strongest man, the first human being to deadlift half a ton. I work with a hypnotherapist, like visualising my kids trapped under a car. Were you a big mind games guy towards the end of it? I was the mind game master. Really? Yeah. And you put your mouth guard on. That's the trigger for me. The mouth guard would be like, right. The moment of winning it. I walked down those steps, a different human being. Alex Payne trying to keep the sight going forward. Haskell takes it on now with just relentless chat. And there's Tyndall to add the finishing touch of glamour

and World Cup winning stories, a dominant display by the good, the bad and the rugby.

And we've got something a little bit different for you this week because our guest is a former world's strongest man.

The first human being to deadlift

half a ton. That is quite a sentence. A record breaker, a YouTube sensation. He is now a podcaster

and an MMA fighter. It is welcome to the one and only Eddie the Beast Hall. Thank you very

much. Half a ton. Of everything you've achieved, which is quite a CV, and we're going to come on to all this, just talk us through that first. Is that at the top? What is the thing you are most proud of in everything that you have achieved? I think the two things that I'm most proud of, and they kind of go hand in hand, is the half-ton deadlift and the Will Strongest Man title. And I say both, because one without the other is almost worthless. Right. So, you know, there's been many of people that have won the Will Strongest Man. Yep. You know, if you don't want to sound horrible or egotistical, if you win the world strongest man, you're not that special,

you know? Quite special, but I can see what you mean. You're one of probably 40 people now.

Yeah. Whereas if you can win the world strongest man and do something spectacular,

like pull a world record deadlift or break the magical half ton barrier and do both, they kind of push themselves, elevate themselves up well above, you know.

So that's my reasoning behind saying both rather than just one.

Can I just say something?

There's this little video screen there.

Can we just have a look at what this is amazing?

It is sort of like the evolution of man.

Whoa.
