Hafr Jlus Bjrnsson aka The Mountain from HBOs Game of Thrones is a beast of a man and the kind of things he does, sure earns him such recognition.
Its been six years since his character Ser Gregor Clegane broke open Oberyn's skull in Kings Landing, but the man himself continues to achieve new heights every now and then.
Recently, Bjrnsson, a well-acclaimed powerlifter made a new world record after deadlifting 1,104.5 pounds (approximately 501 kg) and shared his happiness with his followers on Instagram.
"I have no words. What an amazing day, one I will remember for the rest of my life," Bjrnsson wrote in the caption.
"I said I was coming for it and once I set my mind on something I'm a dog with a bone," the Icelandic actor added. "Want to give a huge shoutout to my family, friends, coaches, fans, sponsors and haters, all of whom helped this lift be possible."
Clearly he is on a mission to be recognised as the strongest man to ever walk this green earth, but what fuels him to be able to show such superhuman strength? What does The Mountain eat in order to maintain such an imposing physique and brute power?
Back in 2016, the actor/athlete shared his diet with the rest of the world, a whopping 10,000 calorie eating plan, which sounds a lot more tiring than guzzling down tons of burgers and fries at the McDonalds near you.
According to his Facebook post (which starts with a disclaimer asking his fans to not try it), Bjrnsson eats 12 times a day and most of his meals consist of high-calorie foods.

Talk about meal planning and how it can be a daymare for the person who prepares those massive amounts of food for this guy.
