The Current Full Competitors List for 2020 World’s Strongest Man

Who made the cut for the 2020 show?

The World’s Strongest Man will feature some of the strongest humans to walk the Earth.

While the 2020 show was delayed earlier this year for obvious reasons, the event appears to be back on track. The show is set to take place at Bradenton Area, Florida from November 11-15.

The absence of 2018 World’s Strongest Man Hafthor Bjornsson seems to standout. The Icelandic strongman retired from strongman competition after winning the 2020 Iceland’s Strongest Man. The competition will certainly be a different kind of experience without him, but with this list of competitors we’re sure to see an exciting event.
