He won numerous titles and medals throughout his life, the title of World's Strongest Man many times and the prestigious "Champion of Champions" event by defeating the famous supermen Geoff Capes and Bill Kazmair. He set all sorts of amazing records with a big smile and even a little dance to top it off. His tragic death in 1993 caused grief and sorrow throughout the world, not only amongst those who knew him best, but also among the millions of television viewers who loved him for his lightness, humor, and extraordinary abilities. In this film we follow Jon Pall from his childhood to glorious victories, we hear about his lovelife, the illness that finally defeated him, the gossip and accusations of steroid use, his role as a father and finally his last moments in the gym.

Reader Reviews Great life story about a nice guy- who's clock got punched for trying to be the best in this so-called sport. He's not the first to die, and he certanly won't be the last. Pro Strongman is not a good career choice, nor by any means is it a healthy lifestyle. All these guys are "touched" to say the least.
