Jouko Ahola is off-puttingly photogenic. He also happens to be a two-time World's Strongest Man.

Jouko Ahola was amazing. You wouldn't expect that strength out of a guy that size. Mitchell Hooper reminds me of him, as in another man you wouldn't expect to have the strength he does.

His podium % is 2nd to none 💯 I believed he podiumd every show he entered. Also the lightest Worlds Strongest Man ever 💪 he had an insanely strong back 🧐

He weighed a measly 275 at 6’1 haha

One of my biggest inspirations for strongman, as someone who will also be very undersized

Vytautas Lalas, also was an inspiration to myself. Being only 5'10 and winning the Arnold's in '08 against a VERY stacked lineup. A true David vs. Goliath battle, that no one thought he was going to win.

Big Z my favourite strong man ever, but this guy well up there. For his size he was crazy strong.

Jouko would get 3 more WSM titles I think if he kept going. Svend Karlsen, Janne Virtanen and Magnus Samuelson had too many weaknesses to compete with Youko. 2003 Mariusz Pudzianowski would probably beat him.

I guess he was just too photogenic to be contained by the sport

He said in some finnish interview that he had several injuries and some inner organ that was injured, that he decided to stop! But now at 53 he gonna do world record in deadlift (over 50y)
