Hafthor Bjornsson shared a story on his Instagram where his daughter had an unusual complaint with him this morning (August 6). The father-daughter duo was flying and seated together. Throughout the world, the airplane legroom is infamously small – even for a regular-sized flyer. What would you do if the passenger beside you was a giant? You won't want to fly again with them right?

This is what happened when Hafthor Bjornsson was sitting next to his daughter on a flight. As would happen in such a situation, he occupied more than one seat. Half of the adjacent seat was taken by his shoulder alone, depriving his daughter of her allotted space.

She was kind of annoyed with her dad because he was on her side and way out of his own. She also said she wouldn't like to sit with her dad on a flight again. This complaint was as sarcastic as Bjornsson's reaction was: that it hurt his heart.

He wrote in one of the stories:

"My daughter said she doesn't wanna sit next to me on a flight again. I don't blame her but my head hurts."

Bjornsson keeps getting funny comments for being big

At 2.06 m, Bjornsson is one of the tallest bodybuilders in the world. Add that to the competitively trained muscle mass, and the result is the giant strongman he is. When his wife Kelsy, who is 1.57 m, posts photos or videos of them together, their followers have hilarious things to say.

It must be quite the usual for him to be called large or be suggested to just lift her and walk; but his wife being compared to a small handheld object is hilarious:

"Thor and his toothbrush, just kidding. Respect guys" - one user commented

Another person pointed out that his wife is actually the normal size for a human being, it is Hafthor who is not so:

"She looks really petite, walking along with you, but in fact she is regular size!" - another instagram user pointed out

Hafthor is the winner of the 2018 World's Strongest Man title, and also of Arnold Strongman Classic in 2018 and 2019.
