I think that the Worlds Strongest Man competitor ,Phil Pfister, is one of the strongest people of all time. I also think that Ronnie Coleman, Bill Kazmeier, and Paul Anderson are up there. My personal pick would be Phil Pfister though. He is huge. Bill Kazmeier had a really rugged and solid physique that looked great. Ronnie Coleman is really big and shredded. Paul Anderson was monstrously fat but looked incredibly strong. Alot of powerlifters are really big and strong. I like the smaller powerlifters. The are strong and bonedry and much stronger than they look.

All around i think Frank or Paul anderson have my voteI've seen a 15 year old deadlift 440 lbs. first time ever touching a weight
I've witnessed a begginer increase there total 350 lbs. the first month
I myself can show you men bench pressing 821 lbs. men deadlifting nearly 940 lbs. men squatting 1104 lbs.
Powerlifting the sport of imposibility to Bodybuilders everywhere

Yeah thats not even that close to the highest clean and jerk. I think you can take pretty much any guy who goes to WSM and on any day one will be stronger then the other. It's near impossible to say ones the strongest.Originally posted by Vehementi

Are we talking overall strength or strength relative to bodyweight?
I saw this little guy once, I think it was Greg Warr, and he was pushing some huge numbers!
Or that Turkish Olympic Lifter, Naim Soulymanelgnou (sp??) I saw a whole 1 hour special on him a couple of years ago, it was probably the MOST amazing thing I've ever seen, especially when they talked about just how small he was, his dog was taller than him, but his power was unreal. I wish they televised more Oly lifting events (besides the Olympics themselves). I would love to learn how to do those lifts, but there's nowhere here that offers instruction in Vancouver.Last edited by Sonny; 03-26-2003 at 12:23 PM.

i just watched an old strongman comp. and saw franco columbo. now for a little guy he did some damage, reminded me of an ant. granted he's never won a strongman comp., but pound for pound that dood is a strong mother. i think he competed at a weight around 215.

Ronnie Coleman is not as strong as top strongmen and powerlifters because he trains for bodybuilding. If he trained for strongman he could be a top guy or maybe even number one. Ronnie deadlifts 800 for 2 reps at the end of a workout! He also squats 800 for 2 reps and benches 650 pounds without a shirt. Don't count the guy out. He is 39 and should he ever choose to enter a Masters powerlifting competition he would probably be in the top 3 and eventually work his way up to first!
.................. Ronnie Coleman?
