Product Information

Four-time World's Strongest Man winner Jon Pall Sigmarsson was the larger-than-life Icelandic strongman whose story was captured in this powerful documentary by the team of Hjalti Arnason and Steingrimur Thordarson. In its portrayal of this Icelandic legend, this film broke new ground, capturing Jon Pall's life from childhood to death, combining actual clips with wonderful re-enactments ("How did they get that footage of Jon Pall as a child?"). Lighting the strongman world on fire, its impact has been far greater as well, setting box office and video sales records in Iceland and capturing the attention of the film industry beyond the world of strength and far from the Land of Fire and Ice. The premiere of the film, held in Reykjavik in 2006, was attended by Icelandic President Olafur Ragnar Grimsson, as well as guests from around the world, and now, for the first time, the Jon Pall documentary is available in English. If you are a strength athlete, fan, coach or just want to see an excellent film on a remarkable person, put this video at the top of your list. 110 minutes. DVD/NTSC.
