Heat one of the strongman competition, from which two athletes will proceed to the final. Heat One features 'Game of Thrones' star Hafthor Bjornsson, with British hopes resting with veteran Laurence Shahalei. Also in the group is Matjaz Belsak from Slovenia, and the mighty Iranian Peiman Maheripourehir who has won his national title twice.

Heat Three includes Lithuania's Zydrunas Savickas, or 'Big Z' who has graced the podium a massive ten times, with four victories to his name. Now 42 years old, he has to look after his body more than ever. But write Big Z off at your peril.
