'The Mountain' from 'Game of Thrones' challenges arm-wrestling champion

Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson, the Icelandic strongman best known as "The Mountain" from "Game of Thrones," decided to challenge Devon Larratt, a two-time arm-wrestling champion, to a friendly little arm-wrestling match in what looks like a high-school cafeteria. Björnsson has four inches and 200 pounds on Larratt. Easy victory, right?

Yeah, not so much. Proving that arm wrestling isn't just about pure strength, Larratt had no trouble at all keeping the mountainous Björnsson on the ropes for the entire match. Just don't let him get anywhere near your head, Devon.

This was a production of the World Armwrestling League; you can check out their Facebook page here.
