Who is the strongest man on earth?

The question is very difficult to answer as everyone has their own choice. Sumo wresters please excuse. What is the basis of becoming strongest man on earth? The man who lift maximum weight? Then the Turkish hero nick named Pocket Hercules Naim Suleymanoglu should be on top of the list. What about Mariusz Pudzianowski, the man from Poland who entered the strongman competition at his teen age of 16? Can any one deny Arnold Schwarzenegger, the Terminator hero, from the list of world’s strongest men? So debate has no ending and here comes the list of world’s top 5 strongest men.

1.Paul Anderson

Paul Anderson was a world famous weight lifter from Georgia United States. Anderson won gold medal in 1956 Olympic game held in MelbourneAustralia as a weightlifter. Paul has a world record for lifting greatest weight ever lifted by a man on earth when he lifted around 6,270 lb in 1957. This record is still to break and so Paul Anderson comes to the top of the list of strongest man on earth. It is very unfortunate that there was no such tile of ‘strongest man on earth’ in 1950s.

Paul Anderson has comparatively clean image of not using any kind of steroid for improving performance. That’s the main reason Paul take all other guys out from the competition of strongest man on earth. My few friends argued that Bill Kazmaier was stronger than Paul Anderson. Don’t forget that Paul Anderson once defeated Kaz in a competition with big margin. The nick name ‘the wonder of nature’ is absolutely suited to Paul Anderson. So Paul Anders, the strongest man on earth.

2.Mariusz Pudzianowski

Mariusz Pudzianowski of Poland comes to the 2^nd position of strongest man on earth. He won the tile of Polish strong man four years in a row and also won the title of MET RX for 2 years. Mariusz is also trained in boxing and he quit boxing to become a professional strong man. He holds the record of 255.5 kg in weight lifting and his way of training is very interesting. Normally Mariusz takes 10,000 calories daily and is compensated this kind of food by hard exercises including swimming and run. Mariusz is a complete teetotaler who eats four meals a day with lot of eggs and red meat.

3. Arnold Schwarzenegger

Many of you might have different opinion of putting Arnold Schwarzenegger in 3^rd position in the list of world’s top 5 strongest men. Arnold is the ever green start of body building and he is the inspiration for crores all over the world. Arnold definitely deserves a place in the race of strongest man on earth. He is the man who became the youngest Mr. Universe when crowned at the age of 20. That showed the discipline and hard working mentality of the strongest man on earth. Arnold also penned several books based on the art of body building. Arnold also acted in many hit films of Hollywood.
