From what my family has seen because we as a family watching you guys. You are humble in victory and humble in defeat. You’re a phenomenal athlete and role model. Thank you for everything your doing.

I wouldn't be mad if you retired but I would be a little disappointed. I know it doesn't really matter to you and your life but I feel you can win some more wsm titles!! Lean brian will be dangerous. You have all the power just need a little more agility.

Dude just spent thousands of dollars on the biggest dumbbells I've ever seen... no way is he gonna retire yet. I bet he's got at least 5 great years in him

Brian..... Mate you are such a humble person. YOU REALLY REALLY REALLY SERIOUSLY HONESTLY DON'T HAVE TO APOLOGIZE TO ANYONE.....!!!!! YOU DON'T OWE ANYONE ANYTHING..... At the end of the day you are a person, a human being, flesh and blood like anyone else. In my eyes you are HONESTLY the BEST.....!!!!! Big ups to you. KEEP IT UP.....!!!!! BE GREAT.....!!!!! All the way from South Africa 🇿🇦 🌍.

If you google "world's strongest man 2021" there's a picture of Thor and Eddie has the presented men on the tour dates. Who did eddie have to suck off to get that done?

Brian you are the best thing to ever happen to strong man, they are not losing a competitor they are gaining a legend of the sport

Sounds like the long goodbye ❤

Clickbait title after clickbait title... When did a teenage girl start running this channel?

Shaw has been Novikov'd?

Impossible to not respect this man. A legend of the sport and a great guy at that. No need to apologise for anything Sir

Role model behaviour & mindset from the greatest of champions.

Much love Brian!! Always been my favourite even though I should be backing Tom Stoltman haha I'm from the UK!! Keep up the good work, you'll always have your yt supporters 💚🇬🇧

Make a decision that you are going to make NO decisions now. It’s far too soon you need time to think everything through. 👏👏👏

They barley showed you compete in UK version of the final diddnt get to see your last competition

I've always liked Brians friendly and respectful approach to all competitors and fans i see on TV. This is a great role model

Your The greatest that ever did strong man, I watch you everyday best motivator ever

no give i think u got #1 wins in you ty for all that you do

If Eddie and Brian has a TV show together, scoobydoo type, i definitely watch

You have no need to apologize you have always gave it your best and you have had great success all around. Keep up the great work in everything you do!

I think b should just compete as long as he wants . Become an old man of the sport like nick

Jesus Christ is Lord God of all! God bless you all! Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, is too difficult for the Lord our God, with Christ, ALL things are possible!

Love you man. You didn’t let anyone down. Excited for Shaw Classics!

You're a class act, period. Wishing you all the best going forward, whatever path you choose..

Dude! Please don't apologize for anything. You are a great human being and it's awe-inspiring to watch what you do.

Imagine being the 5th strongest man on the whole fucking planet and having bums telling you it’s time to retire 🤣

Excuses excuses

Stop making excuses

Tried to blame Stan and vertical diet u changed diet and Coach and u did worst

U ran out of excuses that’s why

Brian Shaw is the Keanu Reeves of the Strongman Community.

please dont retire for good or never do it again, i love watching you compete

You don't need to apologies to anyone big Brian.. well done big man!!!!

Brian you haven't let anyone down. You won 4 times and were there every year. lets see how the new guys last. so far its been a change of champion every year. best wishes to you Brian. The thinking mans giant !

You're one of the greatest warriors of all time, that's it ❤️❤️❤️❤️1️⃣🙏 not only for having won the wsm 4 times, but because you're an authentic warrior♥️♥️♥️♥️🖤

Legend. Don’t apologise🦾

Well this may seem selfish of me to say but I don't want Brian to retire. He has just 1 more title in the tank I can feel it

He's apologizing to us after trying his best and didn’t make any excuses for himself, I hope he's proud of himself because God knows we are

What a man. Thank you Brian!

You need to win 1 more man than retire get that 5 wsw titles 4 is amazing though. Bro ur Brian shaw i dony know one wsw who hadnt looked up yo u etc I think you got more in ya u can def win next year

Idk what you do or don't do but I think nowadays the new guys got some craxy steroids or something lol crazy

Best there ever was best there ever will be

Hall of fame, Godbless brian

Personally I think you are to the Strongmen what Bruce Lee is to MMA fighters ; a legend and an inspiration. Everyone wants to surpass you because above you are the stars ! Like all good French I'm bad in English sorry ^^ You're a really good and incredibly strongman, those who question that are idiots !

Shouldn’t be sorry your such a nice guy

Promoting & training strongmen and strongwomen...

I think you would a great strongman coach...

I’m tired of every time Brian doesn’t win people bringing up retirement, I say Brian follow your happiness, and I’ll support you in any direction

thumb down for the clickbait

bad voice with echo in room

King

Congratulations on your success with strongman and your business ventures

no need to apologize big man you and all your hard work is so completely inspiring !!!! chin up !!! :)

One of the most LEGENDARY strongmen of all time. Your always gonna be GREAT.

You're a truly legend Brian!! I am honored to be alive and witness your greatness! Big love and much respect to you! Can't wait for Shaw Classic!! I am pumped!!

So this means you and Eddie are doing your own show now?

You don't need to apologize.

Well, I for one do not think you should retire! We all love seeing you compete, it's also insane to me that someone that placed 5th in the WORLDS STRONGEST MAN is apologizing! You are not only one of the strongest men to have ever lived! You are still very very competitive! I say go until you no longer have the drive or desire to compete. We love you Brian, continue to be great!

love you new videos

Don't retire yet Brian, 5th isn't a disaster

Dont apologize bud. You have nothing to be sorry for. You win some you lose some. Thats part of life

I own a fitness company and would love to carry your new line.

You only disappointed me by shaving in Nov... Lol joking.

You are human. Had a bad day cannt win them all.. Before you take time off from strongman you arent getting any younger.... Only so many good years in the body... Either way God bless. Enjoy.

To me u won u have a great life won wsm 4 times and u inspired me to get working out and now I'm 3 times stronger I look up to u 😁👍

Shawn, much respect to you. I appreciate your honesty, and openess and realism on your life and sport. Keep well, and thank you for sharing a peek of your life!

You dont have to apologize. If any thing we the fans do. Thankyou for everthing .you are a true inspiration.

The only thing Brian needs to apologize for is him crushing the dreams of everyone who think they can be the greatest strongman, because there can only be one greatest and its Brian Shaw.

You never have to apologise to your fans! What you have achieved will be remembered for as long as there is strong man events.

We love you anyway Brian.

damn man really was hoping for that 5th not whoever that dude is to win

Learn arm wrestling. Rip off some arms.

Brian u gotta get into armwrestling now

Brian i am a big fan you are a great man and i have had many laughs watching your youtube channel, what i want for you is to get to a healthy weight before its too late, take some time off and just get healthy, you have a great family and i really wish you to live a long life enjoying them and your grandchildren, wish you the best man be blessed in the name of jesus christ may you be protected in his name 👍👍👍

We love you Brian!!

Thank you for everything MR Shaw “ from the beginning to the end you have alway represented the United States with dignity from the heart 💝

"I came here for an apology. I got it, but it still wasn't enough. Thumbs down," said no one ever.

you rock Brian got my sweatshirt ty

"I lost, I'm quitting!" What a terrible mindset

The day we see Brian retire I belive we see Brian start the world federation of strongman for him and fellow athletes

You did your best Brian Really looking forward to see you next time! You definetly shouldn't be sorry, be proud!

I'm always impressed with you as a person! A true gentleman with great integrity! I'm proud of you!

Don't apologize B! You are mount Rushmore of strongman! You have given us so many years of memories and records. You owe no man an apology

No need to say sorry mate.. you're a roll model and a beast, always will be the future is bright for you and you have earned that.

Hey Brian, u didn’t let anybody down. Ur a GOAT. We love u big bro

Proud of you Brian

I feel tiny compared to Brian, I'm only 6'1 and 230lbs. 😂

You don’t owe anyone an apology bro! We love ya man!

Big man it’s all about how you want to live your life If you want to spend time with your family that’s great thing to do.

Brian you're breathing harder.

Brian is up there with Z, Kaz, and Pudz. Guys like Thor, Eddie, Martin’s, and Magnus are great but the aforementioned are elite and legendary. No shame in whatever Brian does from here.

Brian, you are in the best shape ever, it was just not your competition. Don't repeat MJ's mistake of retiring at the peak, you still got it and can get 1-2 wins easily!

Time to dedicate yourself to arm wrestling

You’ve had a great career. I’m sure it taken a toll on your body and your mind. There’s no shame in no longer being in peak form. I’m sure you’ll do what’s right for you and your family. As a fan, I think you need to adjust your expectations. If we could continuously get better then we’d be better at 80 than at 30 - but it doesn’t work that way. The wear and tear adds up and it seems that you have a lot more responsibilities now than you did five years ago, that takes a toll too. At this stage of your career it seems that being the best you is a better goal than being the best.

Brian is still young so at least two more years and then he can decide. Besides he loves training in that world strongman training is a part of his every day life.

Soooo....... I am just waiting for the day that Brian wakes up in the morning, eats breakfast, heads outside to his gym and loads up the back of his truck with as bunch of heavy duty chains with railroad spikes and a hammer.... His wife comes outside and ask him where is he headed? Brian replies: "I'm gonna go pull a mountain". She ask "with the truck"? He replies "nope, just me". 😁👍👍

Amazing ambassador for the sport!! Would love to see you train the next group of world strongest men. You’re an amazing athlete

Brian can finish last and he would still be neck and neck with Savickas for best ever. I know he wants to be the best, but he shouldn't feel any pressure.

Nothing left to prove buddy :) You are the GOAT.

"Even giants need rest" Quote by Jarl.

Brian thanks for all the great times and effort you put into strong man!
