The Mountain from Game of Thrones and his petite wife have addressed one of the most frequently asked questions about their relationship.
Absolutely, standing next to Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson, most people would seem petite! He’s best known for his role as Gregor Clegane in Game of Thrones.
Standing at 6 feet 9 inches, he certainly earns his title as Game of Thrones‘ ‘The Mountain.’
The Icelandic strongman is the only person to have ever won the world’s three biggest strongman competitions in the same calendar year: the Arnold Strongman Classic, Europe’s Strongest Man, and the World’s Strongest Man.
He really does embody the qualities of a mountain, especially when contrasted with his 5 feet 2 inches wife, Kelsey Henson.
The couple, who married in 2018, often playfully highlight their 19-inch height difference. Björnsson has even been known to use his wife as a dumbbell during his gym workouts.
Acknowledging their height difference, she joked in an Instagram snap: “Never get fully in the frame together… tall with short people problem.”
