Shock moment ex-World’s Strongest Man Eddie Hall chases driver screaming ‘I’ll rip your f***ing head off’ in clash
Strongman Eddie “The Beast” Hall threatened a motorist in a furious row outside his home, screaming: “I’ll rip your f***ing head off”.
Former World’s Strongest Man Eddie, 37, was caught on video confronting two motorists who turned up at his house in Newcastle-under-Lyme.
The 6ft 3in, 26 stone giant is seen screaming obscenities into the open window of one of the cars, before running at another motor, trying to grab the driver.
A young child can be heard screaming in the background as the driver speeds off.
At the start of the clip posted on social media the person filming the video is heard saying: “He’s just scared me daughter.”
Eddie can then be seen shouting at another motorist in the car behind, saying: “F**k off, or I’ll f**king do you all, f**k off.”
The motorist replied something about his children, to which Eddie said: “I couldn’t give a f**k, what about my kids.”
As the motorist tried to drive away, Eddie gives chase, shouting: “Hey, hey, get out, get out you f**ing pr**k.
“I’ll f**king rip your head, I’ll twist your f**ing head off. All of you get out, I’ll rip your f**king head off.”
Raging Eddie is then seen sprinting towards the man filming, before the motorist speeds off in a BMW, his daughter crying in the back seat.
The driver is heard saying: “What the f**k, yo he is mad. What the f**k man, he’s just tried grabbing me out of the car.”
Dad-of-four Eddie, wearing black shorts and a vest, is seen walking off down the road where a blonde woman meets him.
In comments on his official Facebook, in which he addressed those involved, he said three cars pulled up at around 9pm “beeping their horns outside the house”, which made his children “very scared”.
He continued: “You were asked very politely to leave after waiting outside my house for 15 minutes… You continued to wait outside my house scaring my kids to death.”
Eddie went on to say only the “last 30 seconds of our interaction” was filmed – with the cars outside his home “for a total of 25 minutes”.
“So I asked you all to leave and the blue BMW driver said, and I quote, (“I’ll knock you out”)… so I got angry!”
He added: “If you think harassing my house and waking my kids up at 9pm at night is acceptable then you’re not reasonable human beings.
“We all see red when it comes to protecting our families, especially when it comes to young children and my house is not a public attraction.”
Eddie added: “I massively apologise for upsetting your children and I would love to make that good somehow, that’s the one thing I regret.”
The star lives in the house with wife Alexandra and their children.
In a YouTube tour of his home posted after he bought it around four years ago, Eddie detailed the security measures he had put in place to stop “wackos” coming on to his property.
He had spotlights installed all around the property, an electric gate and a full alarm system.
Eddie said: “In my old house I had a lot of problems of people coming on to my property and knocking on the door at stupid hours asking for autographs and pictures…I’ve had it where people have climbed over the fence to knock on… so you know, as innocent as that may sound it’s quite worrying.
“And since I’ve lived here, I was in my hot tub a couple of weeks ago somebody just wondered into my back garden and literally offered me a fight, literally put his fists up and said, ‘let’s do some boxing training’…so it just goes to show show, being who I am does draw the wackos so the security has been the number one feature for me.”
Retired strongman Eddie won the World’s Strongest Man title in 2017 and is best known for his then world-record setting 500 kg deadlift.
These days he is a TV and social media personality and fitness entrepreneur.
He has also launched a career in boxing and MMA.
