Eddie Hall was involved in an incident at his home in Stoke-on-Trent on Monday night, with the former World’s Strongest Man chasing off two vehicles after an angry confrontation
Eddie Hall has apologised after angrily chasing two cars away from his house, though insisted he does not regret his actions. The former World’s Strongest Man was filmed confronting two motorists who turned up at his home in Stoke-on-Trent.
The incident took place at around 9pm on Monday night. Hall could be heard telling the motorists to ‘f*** off,’ before sprinting towards a BMW in rage, while he was also filmed saying: “I’ll f***ing do you all, f*** off.”
The person in the vehicle responded with a comment about his children, with Hall replying: “I couldn’t give a f***. What about my f***ing kids?” The motorist attempted to drive off but a final comment led to Hall chasing after the vehicle.
As he chased after them, he fumed: “Hey, get out, get out you f**ing p****. I’ll f**ing rip your head, I’ll twist your f**ing head off. All of you get out, I’ll f***ing rip your heads off.”
Hall then targeted a second car and appeared to try to hit the driver, with a child in the back seat heard crying. In a now-deleted Facebook post, Hall has defended himself for his actions.

“9pm at night and you and two other cars pull up beeping there horns outside the house…” Hall wrote. “You woke my young children up and they became very scared! 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 so hear I am asking you again to leave and you filmed the last 30 seconds of our interaction when you’ve been outside the property 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. 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 and I am not public property to use as a photo shoot at 9pm at night. I am deeply sorry for upsetting your children!!”
Hall has alleged that the drivers involved were taking pictures of his house and looking into his driveway, scaring his children. The 37-year-old had made his MMA debut at the end of last month.
He knocked out five-time Strongman Mariusz Pudzianowski inside 30 seconds of their bout. But he claimed that his aim is not to climb the ranks in MMA, instead prioritising ‘enjoying himself’.
He told talkSPORT: “Maybe me and Mariusz team up and we go 2v4. I don’t know, but I just want to do fun s***. I want to challenge myself. I just want to do fun stuff in my life. I’ve got no aspirations to climb the ranks.
“I’ve got no aspirations to have a ranking in any fight Federation. Where I belong is the freak fights, the 2v1s, the Mariusz Pudzianowski’s, the freak fights. I think that’s where I belong.”
