Four-time World’s Strongest Man winner Brian Shaw has been a fan favorite in the sport of bodybuilding. In fact, he has accumulated thousands of followers over the years, with his incredible feat in strength sports. But this time, Shaw has received recognition from none other than The King, who jumped off his chair while watching the giant lifting massive weights easily.

Lately, the former Mr. Olympia has been making some fun, reaction videos on his channel. Previously, he made a video about Arnold Schwarzenegger and Chris Bumstead, where he talked about The Austrian Oak’s old-school lifts, and shared his thoughts on the 2022 Mr. Olympia classic physique. This time, he came up with yet another video featuring the strongman giant.

The first video was from 2011 when Shaw won his first WSM title. He carried two enormous tires, which mesmerized Coleman. This was followed by a bench press where he lifted 530 lbs which according to The King was, “530 lbs like it’s 330 lbs.” Later the beast deadlifted 1091 lbs and 981 lbs, which was from his last Strongman win in 2016.

Shaw’s heavyweight squat made Coleman say, “I don’t know what kind of contraption that he used but ain’t nothin’ easy about what he’s doing.” This was followed by his kettlebell toss in 2018 where Shaw looked furious while tossing the weights. The IFBB pro explained it as “Those are some big a** kettlebells and he tossed them like peanuts.” Coleman’s appreciation of Shaw, is the cherry on the top of a long line of accolades.
