6’9″-Ft Strongman Giant Hafthor Bjornsson Highlights the Biggest Downside of Being So Tall

Someone’s biggest strength could also turn into a hilarious setback. A similar incident took place with strongman Hafthor Bjornsson yesterday. The strongman shared the moment on his Instagram story which has gained a hilarious reaction from fans. Apparently, The Mountain was seen taking a mirror selfie that failed to accommodate the entirety of his massive physique!

Game of Thrones starred Bjornsson as The Mountain for all the right reasons. While tearing up violent on-screen scenes, one can only imagine the magnanimity of the size that this man is blessed with. However, such a huge physique comes with a lot of quirks. So, what happened this time?

Hafthor Bjornsson shared the disadvantage of being 6’9″ ft tall

Fans of Hafthor Bjornsson might get fascinated with his insane height and physique. But that is not the case with Bjornsson. When it comes to living an ordinary life wherein everything is shaped and designed for an average-sized person, The Mountain has his own disadvantages. On his Instagram story, Hafhor shared a hilarious picture of him standing in front of a decent-sized mirror. However, Haftor’s appearance could not fully fit into it. 

An annoyed Hafthor shared the inconvenience of the matter by clicking a picture of it. He shared it in his story with a caption that read, “They don’t make mirrors for tall people.”Although Hafthor’s height might be an eye-widening affair for his fans, at home, it is a regular thing because he comes from a family of giants. In fact, his father is 6 ft 8 in. Further, Hafthor’s grandfather is also of similar height as him and Hathor’s father. 

It might sound surprising for many to know that there lies a substantial height difference of approximately 19 inches between Hafthor and his wife Kelsey Henson. His wife who is a lifestyle and fitness blogger has a height is 5ft 2 in. The strongman–fitness blogger duo met at a bar in 2017 and eventually got married.

Although a few instances of height inconvenience might annoy Hafthor, ultimately he gets to enjoy the stardom for being one of the greatest strongmen to ever walk on this Earth. But Rome was not built in a day, was it? 

How did Hafthor gain such a huge physique? 

The dietary intake might be intense for a person 6ft 9 inches tall. One of the world’s greatest strongmen, Hafthor Bjornsson, adapted to an unusual diet to gain a physique for which he is famous today. In an interview, the 34-year-old revealed the diet that won him World’s Strongest Man title in 2018.

Hafthor stated, “I basically ate everything. Pizza, Pasta — anything to make myself bigger.” However, he also worked out thrice a day which explains why Hafthor did not put on any weight despite consuming huge amounts of calories. It is a lifestyle choice that he developed over the years.
