The fitness world acts as a foundation for both strongmen and bodybuilders. When both of those share the stage, the audience is bound to stay stunned for long. Brian Shaw, the famous strong man with several records under his name, is usually considered a gentle soul. With his new little gesture, he wins more hearts.

Shaun Clarida, the 5’2 fierce bodybuilder has won Mr. Olympia 212 twice, in 2020 and again in 2022. The beast never lets his reputation have any effects due to his relatively small height compared to others. Instead, he proves to the world that height is hardly a factor when one wishes to succeed.

In a recent YouTube short posted by @Karl.FitnessTV, a delightfully pleasing video surfaced. In the video, Shaun is seen celebrating his win, when Brian joins him. The 2-meter strongman giant makes sharply visible the distinct height difference between Shaun and himself. However, instead of putting on an egotistical air about it, Shaw gently shakes the bodybuilder’s hand and then does something fascinating. He gently rubs Clarida’s head, which enthralls the public.

The video is captioned as,?“Patted him on the head like a Puppy??”?Although the words might seem triggering, in reality, they only reflect the soft side of the strongman and the bodybuilder. Both of them really took the matter lightly and enjoyed it thoroughly as much as the audience did.
