Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
Eddie ‘The Beast’ Hall is the first Brit in 24 years to win the World’s Strongest Man competition, beating The Mountain from Game of Thrones.
Everything about Eddie is huge. Standing at 6’3 he weighs almost 30 stone, and to make it through his hellish four-hour gym sessions he needs to eat a minimum of 10,000 calories a day. He eats a raw steak during weight sessions. His right eyeball once burst out of its socket under the strain. He put it back in.
In his remarkable autobiography, Eddie takes you inside the world of the professional strongman – the nutrition, the training and competitions themselves. This is a visceral story of sporting achievement, an athlete pushing himself to the limits, and the personal journey of a man on the path to becoming being the best of the best.

Brutally Honest & What a Autobiography should be
I have to say this is the best autobiography I have read to date. Most simply run through the achievements of the.subject and give the facts of there lives growing up and we’re it all happened . This however is a real step into the mindset and person .Brutally honest and some times to Eddies detriment. A very interesting and inspirational story that is relatable and interesting from start to Finnish. I literally read it in a few days as I found it very hard to put down. Absolutely brilliant and have already pre- ordered the next book

Fantastic book, a must listen
Thoroughly enjoyed this book and it gave a great insight into the life of my idol “The Beast” Eddie Hall and what it takes to accomplish the amazing things that he has. I found it very interesting and also inspiring. Can’t wait to get back down the gym!

What a book!!!
You will be forgiven for thinking that Eddie is not actually a writer of stories, but a strongman! The book reads really well, and you really feel that heart and soul are laid bare here for all to read/Listen.
This is so much more than just a story of a strong bloke from the UK!
I don't think I can do this book justice, It's good enough for me to have started listening again! I hope in some ways that Eddie has as well in his next career as he did as a strongman so I can read about that too!

One of the best audio book I've listened to.
Really funny. Really interesting. My girlfriend heard some of it and was wetting herself. Look no further if you was a great autobiography
