Thor, aged 27, who plays The Mountain in TV sci-fi fantasy blockbuster Game of Thrones, has filmed a taunting video message ahead of the show, which looks set to sell out, saying: "England, I hope you are ready to get beaten by the vikings for the second time.
"I am Europe's strongest man. See you in a few days."
But out to stop Thor - third in the World's Strongest Man competition last year - is England's own superman Eddie 'The Beast' Hall, Britain's strongest man, who is also hoping to deadlift a new world half a ton, or 500kg (1,102lbs).
He is the existing world record holder, already deadlifting a knee crunching 463 kgs (1,021 lb), or almost 73 stones.
