Does Burkina Faso have the world’s strongest man?
Its star athlete ‘Iron Biby’ has just broken his own world record for log lifting by hoisting 231 kilograms above his head!

He’s a man-mountain and, as you’ll see from these pictures, stunned the crowd at the World Log Lift in the UK last weekend.

Biby, who’s real name is Cheick Ahmed Al-Hassan Sanou, also holds the world record for the most number of overhead presses in a minute.

It’s hard to believe he was bullied at school, lol. And he’s now been embraced by his country’s President Ibrahim Traoré who posted on X: "This victory by our Stallion, Burkina Faso's ambassador in this discipline, testifies to the resilience and determination of the Burkinabe people to stand firm in the face of adversity and continue to meet the challenges of their march towards happiness. May our hero's victory not only bring the people of Burkina Faso together, but also stir our patriotic spirit in the defence of our homeland and fuel the courage of our fighting forces as they battle to regain our territory and our total sovereignty."
