There are certain people you don’t want to mess with!
These super tough contenders are the kind of people who have dedicated their lives to
becoming the most skilled, athletic or just all around powerful people in any room they
walk in.
There aren't many people who could easily take them on, and today we're going on a journey
to get better acquainted with some of these hardcore humans, not just to marvel at their
abilities and physiques, but also so you know not to ever get on their bad side if you come
across them.
Ready to have your mind blown by some serious displays of skill and strength?
Let’s get it on!
BLESSING AWODIBU When it comes to keeping an online following
entertained, nobody can top the antics of Blessing Awodibu.
The Irish influencer wasn’t satisfied with just his 2 Arnold Classics and four International
Federation of Bodybuilding titles, and so Instagram was where he turned.
Amassing an ardently following of a few thousand can usually be attained by anyone with a good
enough physique, and at 245 pounds of lean muscle, Awodibu has without a doubt got that
under his belt, but to get into the millions like Blessing you’ve gotta have a little
something extra to keep people invested.
The bodybuilding adonis regularly creates loads of gut-busting sketches and viral videos
that garner millions of global views, like the time he realized there was a CCTV camera
recording him at the grocery store and took to flexing his competitive poses for the enjoyment
of whomever was monitoring the feed.
Still, having a sense of humor isn’t at all going to confuse anyone watching these
videos.
Just because Blessing Awodibu can and will make you laugh, there’s no mistaking that
this man is an absolute beast and with a build like his, nobody is going to try making him
the butt of the joke any time soon.
GIGA UGURU Giga Uguru is a man who walks around calling
himself a ninja, and there is nobody on Earth who would dare to tell him otherwise.
As a young boy his parents signed him up for TaeKwonDo classes, and he’s never looked
back since.
But of course, you don’t make this list for being satisfied with mastering just one
martial art, and Giga went on to master Thai boxing, Karate and Krav-Maga.
Following his dream of being a true ninja, Giga got into gymnastics and parkour, and
has crafted his own fighting style, the flashy one with all the flips you’re seeing on
your screen right now, out of his vast pool of skills to create a very unique and very
deadly style all his own.
Uguru shows that the human body can be pushed to unthinkable limits with enough determination,
as you can see with him punching a concrete floor and a tree like their just simple punching
bags without even flinching.
Unless you’re tougher than concrete, I’d say it’s best to steer clear of messing
with Giga Uguru.
ONG BAK IN REAL LIFE When people want to learn to fight they usually
hit something soft to get warmed up, like a punching bag or a training dummy.
But Tony Jaa is not some people.
No, in fact he’s a Muay Thai master who prefers hitting tree trunks and bending steel
beams with his kicks over something as simple as a punching bag.
Jaa makes a living through his mastery over the martial art, working in movies and TV
shows as a stunt double and fight choreographer for action scenes, and it’s not hard to
see why casting directors pick him for their roles.
But believe me, these videos of him training are far from movie magic.
Oh no, they’re the real deal!
Tony Jaa can do that in real life, and if that’s what he can do to a tree, imagine
what would happen if he were to punch you.
No thank you, I’m alright never knowing what that tree just went through, the video
is more than enough for me to know that you should never try any funny business with this
Muay Thai master.
MARTYN FORD If you’re a casting director looking for
someone to fill the role of a very scary, very big dude who looks like he rips peoples’
heads off for breakfast, one look at Martyn Ford and your search could not be over more
quickly.
It isn’t hard to see where the British bodybuilder got his nicknames, Nightmare, Hulk, and perhaps
most fittingly, the beast.
I mean just look at him, with his massive physique and intimidating tattoos, this is
the guy you’d wanna hire if you’re in the market for a bodyguard.
Either way, be sure not to let that fool you, because Martyn Ford has another nickname that
he’s very well earned: The Scariest Man on Earth.
On top of his extreme passion for bodybuilding, Ford can really move, and he’s slated to
make a debut in Mixed Martial arts according to some sources.
I’d hate to be the guy they put up against him though, because I’m smart enough to
know Martyn Ford is someone you should never, ever mess with.
JD ANDERSON In the world of bodybuilding, strongmen stand
out as some of the most fearsome contenders the world has to offer, and even among strongmen,
JD Anderson is revered on a whole ‘nother level.
The strongman has pulled off some absolutely inhuman feats as nothing more than a warm
up, such as snapping baseball bats in half or rolling up steel frying pans with his bare
hands, but that’s just JD getting started.
I mean, what does this guy even eat to have power like that?
Oh… phonebooks, I guess.
But if somehow that isn’t enough to show that you should not be messing with this guy,
then let me tell you about JD Anderson’s very cool nickname.
The Iceman.
No it isn’t because he ices people, although he very clearly could if he wanted to.
Instead, Anderson holds a very unique world record, one for breaking the most solid slabs
of ice… with his head.
Now just imagine if your body were these blocks...
EDWARD HAWTHORNE As a police officer in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania
and veteran of the United States armed forces, it’s definitely a good thing that this dude
is on our team, because with physical prowess like his, he could very well be a straight
up supervillain.
While sadly there doesn’t seem to be any footage of Edward taking down criminals, there’s
plenty of clips of his insane workouts, and well, you can just let your imagination fill
in the blanks.
I mean, do you really want to run from a cop who can chase you just as quickly on his hands
as on his feet?
Most criminals probably just turn themselves in when they find out Officer Hawthorne is
on their case, because not even the most hardened thug can hope to challenge the world’s most
fit police officer.
Many of his coworkers have even taken to calling him the Supercop, and it’s easy to see why.
We’re happy to say that with a real life superhero watching their backs, the people
of Pittsburgh can rest easy, but I can’t exactly say the same for the outlaws.
ISAO MACHII Of all the ancient warriors throughout history,
the ninja has always been arguably the most entrancing of them all.
With near legendary mastery over stealth and incredible skills in hand to hand and weapon
based combat, it’s no wonder why someone like Isao Machi would dedicate their lives
to becoming the ultimate modern embodiment of the ninja.
Among his incredible displays of swordsmanship are his various world records including the
most martial arts katana cuts to a tatami mat, a mat with a density comparable to human
bone, as well as the fastest 1,000 martial arts sword cuts.
On top of all that, he also holds the record for the fastest sword swing in the world.
In 2013 Isao shocked the world by cutting a flying bullet in half.
Reacting to a BB gun fired directly at him in time to cut it required a reaction speed
of over 158 kilometers per hour.
If you’re ever going to pick a fight, believe me, Isao Machii has more than proven he is
the wrong opponent to mess with.
HAFÞÓR JÚLÍUS BJÖRNSSON With a name like Hafþór, you should already
expect this man to be something of a demigod.
In case this is somehow your first time on the internet after living under a rock for
a decade, Hafþór played The Mountain in the HBO series Game of Thrones, and well,
I think you can see why they’d cast him for a character with that name.
Hafþór is an absolute giant, measuring in at 6 foot nine and weighing an unbelievable
441 pounds of pure muscle, and as of 2019, he can add Strongest Man Alive to his already
very impressive resume.
In order to maintain his Norse god-like physique, Bjornsson takes in an unbelievable 10 thousand
calories a day, or the equivalent of 18 big macs.
When he isn’t acting or training to be the literal strongest man on the planet, Hafþór
likes scenic walks through his native home of Iceland, it’s nice to see that someone
that fearsome has a softer gentler side, but definitely don’t let that confuse you, he
is not someone you would ever want to get on the wrong side of, because it’s a pretty
big side.
TONY SENTMANAT If you’ve ever considered a life of crime,
I think this next absolute beast of a cop might make you think twice.
Meet Tony Sentmanat, the Miami born Marine who sends terror down the spines of criminals
everywhere.
Tony enlisted in the Marine Corps straight out of high school and showed such prowess
in combat that he was put into an elite mission squad, with whom he carried out special operations
all over the world.
Once he retired from the military though, Tony hadn’t quite seen enough action, and
he decided to become a police officer and, well, let’s just say he wasn’t giving
out parking tickets for long.
With his elite background, the extreme marine was quickly promoted to running SWAT teams,
contending with some of the most dangerous law enforcement operations around without
breaking a sweat.
Tony is a master of several forms of martial arts and competes in MMA tournaments regularly,
as well as being a special operations weapon expert, meaning he can take you down from
long or short range.
He even won Officer of The Year in Miami.
To be fair, if this was the cop coming after me, I’d probably just turn myself in, because
I definitely wouldn’t be able to sleep ever again.
TIM MAN There are plenty of skilled martial artists
all over the world, but Tim Man stands out as a true warrior among the rest.
Born in Switzerland, Tim started training martial arts at the young age of eight and
he never looked back.
He’s mastered a handful of different styles since then, including TaeKwonDo, Wu-Shu, American
and Thai boxing.
Placing third as the reigning TaeKwonDo champion in his home country of Switzerland should
be more than enough to convince most people that this is not someone they want to be messing
with.
After developing a fascination with Hong Kong based martial arts films, Tim began studying
gymnastics and acrobatics, as well as starting a career in cinema himself.
It wasn’t long before his hard work and talent got noticed, and it wasn’t long before
Tim officially got to live out his dream of working full time in cinema and perfecting
his unmatched martial arts skills.
