Eddie Hall: The Beast v The Mountain

Documentary following British strongman Eddie β€˜The Beast’ Hall's journey to a climactic showdown with his bitter rival Thor β€˜The Mountain’ Bjornsson.

Dubbed the heaviest boxing match in history, in March 2022, two of the strongest men in the world took to the ring in Dubai in what was a
dramatic climax to one of the most bitter rivalries ever to hit the sporting world.

With exclusive and intimate access to Eddie and his family in the months leading up to the fight and at the main event itself, this documentary follows the highs and lows, and all the laughs and tears, as Eddie balances a young family with a punishing and obsessively strict training regime, all the while battling to keep his mental health in check.

Can the working-class man from Stoke restore his honour and achieve the retribution he so desperately desires against the towering Hollywood star?
