00:00I'm Ryan Shaw, The Strongest Man on Earth, and today, Mr. Beast flew me to South Africa to go head-to-head in a tug-of-war against a lion.
00:08This is the most insane challenge I've ever done.
00:11Made it down to the filming site here.
00:13Behind me is the cage that we are actually going to be in.
00:17So I'm going to be on one side, lion's going to be on the other side.
00:20The entire Mr. Beast production team is down here.
00:24They've been working incredibly hard, and I've got to say, this looks phenomenal.
00:28And the setting here in South Africa for this is just, I mean, it doesn't get much better.
00:33So this is going to be a heck of a lot of fun.
00:35I am going to kind of start getting changed now.
00:39Definitely mix up some pre-workout, hit that greatness extreme without a doubt,
00:43because I have never pulled on a lion like this, and I want to bring everything I can.
00:49So this is going to be a heck of a lot of fun.
00:51Let's go.
00:52Get everybody in.
00:52We're going to do our intros or our walkthrough intros, which is not the action.
00:56Okay.
00:57So it's in there where Jimmy will say it a couple of different times.
01:01It will set the stage so that the viewers understand what's going on.
01:04Makes sense.
01:05Right?
01:05And then, like, you better get ready to go.
01:08Okay.
01:08And then we can go into your process of stretching, push-ups, whatever that may be,
01:12because Jimmy may like, oh, well, what does this do?
01:15How does this help?
01:16Got it.
01:16And we can make content out of you getting ready for it,
01:18because that really builds up to this culmination of doing it.
01:21Perfect.
01:21Does that sound all right?
01:22That's perfect.
01:22Okay, so Jim's probably about 10, 12 minutes out.
01:26Okay.
01:26So when he gets here, we'll walk through some stuff.
01:28Then we'll grab you, walk you through it with him.
01:31But who knows?
01:32When he gets here, he'll probably come right up and chat with you for a bit about time.
01:36Yeah.
01:36And your competitor should be here in about 10 minutes as well.
01:40Perfect.
01:40What's your best guess?
01:42Of how many it took to move the line.
01:44No, how strong are you compared to, like, are you, like, four or five of me?
01:49I don't know.
01:50How many of me are you?
01:51He'll understand why.
01:52Tell me how many of you.
01:54He'll understand in a minute.
01:55He'll understand in a minute.
01:57I'm just going to give you a rough picture.
01:59So basically four of me.
02:01It's very grainy.
02:02It won't be this grainy, obviously.
02:03There's just no signal.
02:04So it has, like, a bone that it grabs onto.
02:08So this is four guys pulling on it.
02:12Got it.
02:13So you can kind of see them pulling.
02:14These are just all these different camera angles.
02:16You can see kind of, like, the way that it's, like, dragging the lion.
02:19Sure.
02:19It also, like, when we, uh, one of the tests we did, the lion literally, like, was holding on like this.
02:26Right.
02:26And flipped its legs over the rope and started, like, crawling its way back.
02:31It was like, it was like trying to tie a rope to that fucking wall.
02:34And try to pull him.
02:35Sure.
02:35Trying to pull the wall down once he turned around.
02:37Oh, I bet that was nuts.
02:38Yeah.
02:38So don't let him do that.
02:39Okay.
02:40But, um, so yeah.
02:42So what we'll do is we'll just have you start.
02:43Obviously, you've filmed those before.
02:45So you get the whole, we'll shoot three or four different intros.
02:48Big time.
02:48Yeah.
02:48We'll probably do one where it's, like, more of a surprise intro for the lion.
02:51Then we'll have the lion in the cage.
02:53We'll do some intros there.
02:54Okay.
02:54We'll get some shots if you're, like, you're, like, stretching and you're, like, warm-up routine.
02:58Got it.
02:59All that kind of stuff.
03:00And then we'll, it'll be go time.
03:01Beautiful.
03:02I got a big enough one that it'll go all the way around.
03:04Let's see if he can sweep.
03:06Does it just clip on?
03:08Yeah, it's just.
03:08Let me do it.
03:09All right, guys.
03:11So we're getting set now to do the real thing.
03:14The meat is suspended up.
03:16And, uh, I think the lion's pretty excited.
03:19I think the lion is also very angry.
03:22So I am going to need to flip my switch and get into my mode here to, uh, be ready to rock and roll.
03:32Brian, out of curiosity, do you know how to drive stick shifts?
03:36Oh, yeah.
03:36Dustin, can Brian jump in and test drive it?
03:40He knows how to drive stick.
03:41I feel like we are in a good spot getting in there.
03:45I've got the cleats, got the setup.
03:47We're going to trim the rope a little bit just so I get to a finishing position and I'm good to go.
03:53And, uh, you know, some of this is just making sure that it rolls because once the lion gets in there, it's go time.
03:59So I feel like that's going to be a pretty good adrenaline rush when the lion comes out because it's going to pace a little bit, apparently.
04:06Before it grabs the meat or maybe it'll go and grab the meat and then it's, it's game time.
04:10But I, I, uh, yeah, we will see.
04:13We'll see.
04:14I don't, I actually legitimately don't know how this will go.
04:17So, uh, it's going to be a lot of fun to get in there and get after it though.
04:20Now we're in the middle of an African safari with the strongest man on earth.
04:25What do you think we're going to have you do?
04:27Well, I, it looks like a rope.
04:29It looks like a cage.
04:30Uh-huh.
04:31And I, I think I heard a lion.
04:33Yeah.
04:34In the back.
04:34So, so maybe a tug of war.
04:36Precisely.
04:37The strongest man in the world is going to be playing tug of war against the strongest animal in the world.
04:43Okay.
04:44He's gearing up to face a lion.
04:46What's going through your head, Brian?
04:47I'm, I'm feeling like I better be ready to go.
04:50Yeah, the second we open that cage, it is going to instantly start pulling.
04:54I've got some adrenaline going, man.
04:56Oh yeah?
04:56Oh yeah.
04:57Okay.
04:57If for any reason he breaks the car side of the cage, just run really fast.
05:01Okay, I'll be, I'll be right with you.
05:02Yeah.
05:02Yeah.
05:03No, no, ideally you're slower than me.
05:04Okay.
05:05He's large.
05:05Yeah.
05:07Any final words?
05:08I better be ready.
05:09Yeah.
05:09This is going to be intense.
05:10You better be ready.
05:11I agree.
05:12Wait, so what, what's your stance going to be?
05:14How do you beat a lion in tug of war?
05:15I think I've got to be staggered.
05:17Okay.
05:17And I think I'm going to try to, if I can, just march backwards.
05:20And use like your weight to lean back?
05:22Lean back a little bit.
05:23All right.
05:24This is going to be a practice one.
05:25So don't open it on this.
05:26Three, two, one, go.
05:30Okay.
05:31Now this next one's for real.
05:32Everyone, this is for real.
05:33You're good?
05:34Yeah.
05:35Let's go.
05:35Everyone settle.
05:37No movement, please.
05:38Do not distract the lion.
05:39Coming into the cage.
05:41Three, two, one, release the lion.
05:45There it goes.
05:47All right.
05:54He's getting a ground.
05:58Oh, he's actually going to walk.
06:00Are you going to walk?
06:01Oh, okay.
06:03All right, let's go, go.
06:03Hold it.
06:05Oh, this lion is not giving up.
06:09Don't worry.
06:09Don't worry.
06:10Win or lose.
06:11We're going to give the lion a bunch of bees.
06:13He's rolling.
06:14Oh, God.
06:15The lion's literally holding the strongest man in the world in the back right now.
06:18There's a red flag on the side of the lion.
06:24All it has to do is cross with that hole if Brian wins.
06:28My strategy is clearly to just hold his ground and wear out Brian.
06:31This is his breath.
06:36Brian won.
06:37Congrats.
06:37Brian just won.
06:38The strongest human in the world can, in fact, beat a lion in tug of war.
06:43And don't worry.
06:44As a reward for competing, we're going to give this lion unlimited meat for the rest of the
06:47day.
06:47What do you want to say to the king of the jungle?
06:49That was way harder than I thought it would be.
06:51Honestly, the tactics were amazing.
06:54Yeah.
06:54Going to the side there, I couldn't get that rope to move.
06:57Yeah.
06:57He is a strong big boy.
06:59This lion really likes playing tug of war.
07:01So, it looks like he's actually sad that we stopped playing because he wants to keep
07:05going.
07:05Look at his tail.
07:06Hey, how's it going?
07:07Whoa.
07:07Oh, okay.
07:08I won't talk to him.
07:10That's fine.
07:10Yeah.
07:10Anyways, let's go to the next challenge.
07:13Good job.
07:13Awesome, man.
07:14All right, guys.
07:15We are here in an airport, still on the trip home from South Africa.
07:21And what a wild trip.
07:23We had to leave the set there and get to the airport to catch a flight back.
07:29And it was a crazy trip.
07:31So, we went South Africa to Amsterdam, Amsterdam to Boston.
07:34And now, we've got to go Boston back to Denver.
07:39So, another not quite five hours to go here.
07:42But tired, feeling excited.
07:45What an experience, you know, just being able to do that tug of war with a lion being that
07:49close to a lion that was fired up.
07:52You know, just that energy exchange was something really, really incredible and something I will
07:57for sure remember forever.
07:59So, pretty wild experience.
08:01And I want to say thanks to everybody on the Mr. Beast team, you know, for their hospitality,
08:06for setting it up, for doing all the hard work.
08:09To make it happen and for involving me in it was something pretty, pretty cool.
08:13So, definitely an experience that I will remember.
08:16And it's something that hopefully you guys enjoyed.
08:19If you have not watched the video over on Mr. Beast's channel, please go check it out.

08:29athletes.
