However, despite the good condition of his body, he began to suffer from depression and anxiety after his grandmother was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 12: “I would always want to go to the bathroom to sit on my own and just rock back and forth and calm down and release the anxiety. If I had to go out for a family meal or go out with friends, I would vomit before going out, I would be so anxious.
His constant anxiety attacks kept him from completing his classes at Clayton High School, eventually causing his expulsion at the age of 15. He had to be homeschooled until his baccalaureate.
His mental health issues didn’t just affect the course of his studies, they also affected his dream of becoming an Olympic swimmer: “I was kicked out of the swimming club – which was going to be my career – I always had in trouble with the police, in trouble with my parents, my family, always fighting and, I don’t know, it just f****** hit me hard.
As well as entering a counseling program – which he attended for years – Hall was prescribed Prozac by his doctors to deal with his depression, which helped him recover.
When Hall was 17, he discovered he was incredibly good at weightlifting and began considering dedicating his life to it.

Mechanic
In his 2018 book “Strongman: My Story,” Eddie Hall revealed that he started working as a truck mechanic in 2008, when he was 20 years old.

Strong man
Having worked on bodybuilding for years and conditioned by his physical prowess gained during his swimming years, Eddie Hall’s big shot at becoming a strongman came in 2010, when he entered the Strongmen Championship in England after an injured Dave Meer dropped out.
Although Hall is completely new to the competition, he won first place in impressive fashion. It was the cue he was looking for to become a full-time strongman.
In 2011 Hall competed in the UK’s Strongest Man – his second major competition – in Belfast. Once again Hall pulled it off, and not only did he win the tournament, but he also set a new Viking Hold record of 18 seconds when he held 20 kg (44 lb) axes on each arms.
Despite his torn and injured forearms, Hall successfully earned a spot to compete in the World’s Strongest Man (WSM) competition in 2012. However, Hall first had to face other competitions including Giants Live Melbourne in New Zealand, celebrated in February of the same year. It was Hall’s first taste of an international tournament and it proved to be a big challenge for him – added to a back injury, as he placed fourth at the end.
Two months later, in April, Hall competed in Europe’s Strongest Man competition, and although he didn’t get the results he wanted, finishing in eighth place, his mark was impressive given that he competed with some of the strongest weightlifters in the world, Žydrūnas Savickas – four-time World’s Strongest Man winner – included.

Initially, Hall was not going to participate in Strongest Man Europe, although an injury suffered by Ervin Kanton allowed him to enter the competition, finishing in eighth place. The following year Eddie’s work progressed in terms of international events, when he arrived at the final round of the 2014 WSM and finished in sixth place.
In 2015, Hall set a new world record with a 462 kg (1,019 lb) deadlift in Australia at the Arnold Classic event, hosted by Arnold Schwarzenegger. This record did not last long, however, as Eddie himself surpassed it the same year at the World Deadlift Championship.
Also in 2015, Hall surpassed his previous position at the WSM competition, when he placed fourth in the final round. Not stopping there, Eddie pushed his limits again when he surpassed his previous deadlift record at Arnold Classic Strongman in 2016, only to beat it again months later when he hit a mark 500 kg (1,100 lb).
However, making history was no easy task, and in an interview with Barbend, Hall recalled the health issues he faced for lifting such a massive weight, including bow blindness: I had a very bad concussion, memory loss, bleeding from every hole in my body. So yes, it was a really risky and dangerous lift and the health consequences weren’t the best, but it was worth it.
In 2017 and after a long and painful journey, Eddie Hall finally reclaimed his title as the strongest man in the world.
It was then that Eddie expressed his desire to retire from deadlift competitions, revealing he was concerned about his health.
