The 'Iranian Hulk' Is 24 Stone Of Muscle And One Scary Bloke

There are many scary blokes out there, however I doubt any of them come close to being as scary as Sajad Gharibi.

Gharibi is known as the 'Iranian Hulk', or the 'Persian Hercules', and weighs almost 24 and a half stone, which is said to be almost all muscle.

The weightlifter has over 60,000 followers on Instagram and almost 5,000 on Facebook, where he posts intimidating pictures of himself being, well, scary.

The Iranian Hulk can lift 386lbs, which is more than he weighs, and has represented his country in bodybuilding competitions.

Following a huge surge of followers on social media, the humongous muscle man has started posting pictures of himself holding objects, to show how small they look next to his massive frame.

Imagine accidentally knocking over his pint in a pub. I'd buy him five more. Then a car, and a house, and anything else he wanted.

Despite his scariness, he is thankful for his followers and wishes them happiness and peace.
