The Mountain from Game of Thrones is a very big man.

The man who plays the murderous behemoth, Hafthor Julius Bjornsson, is also a very big man. Unsurprisingly he eats an absolute sh*t load of food every day to keep himself massive. We're not even joking. The Icelandic strongman, who is two-time Europe's Strongest Man, can really lay the food away. He recently revealed he eats a daily diet that consists of between six and eight protein-packed meals. Even just thinking about eating that amount of food turns our stomach - it's what an average British man would eat in five days. But one Yorkshireman thought he'd have a crack at eating the Mountain's 6,000-plus calorie daily diet...in one gut-busting sitting. Adam Moran, who is a personal trainer and competitive eater, has already smashed deadlift world champion Eddie Hall's 10,000-calorie diet, so this should have been a piece of p*ss right? Wrong! He looked like he hated every minute of it... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KwlPj390E7Y In case you fancy an all-you-can-eat feast of a strongman champion, here's the full menu... Breakfast - 6 egg whites, 1 whole egg, 1 bowl of fruit, one cup of oatmeal Morning snack - 2 granola bars, 1 bowl of fruit and a protein shake Lunch - 2lb of fish, 1 cup of oatmeal, 1 cup of brown rice, 1 cup of vegetables, 4 slices of whole meal bread, protein shake Afternoon snack - 2 granola bars, protein shake and bowl of fruit Evening snack - 4 slices of whole meal bread and 3 cups of milk Dinner - 2lb of chicken, 1 cup of oatmeal, 1 cup of brown rice, 1 cup of vegetables, cup of wholegrain pasta, protein shake
