The man who plays 'The Mountain' on 'Game of Thrones' eats an insane 10,000-calorie daily diet

Hafþór Júlíus "Thor" Björnsson is best known for his role as Gregor "The Mountain" Clegane on "Game of Thrones." Due to an exciting fan theory and an insane death scene in season four where he literally tore apart a man's skull, The Mountain is a major fan favorite.

Björnsson himself is also beloved for standing nearly seven feet tall, weighing 395 pounds, and breaking world records as an Icelandic Strongman. 

He's currently in training for the upcoming World's Strongest Man competition, and he shared his diet with fans on Facebook and Instagram, first spotted by BuzzFeed.

Iit is unreal.

Here's what Björnsson says he eats every day:

People been asking me a lot about my diet and what I eat! Here's my diet plan for my preparation for World's Strongest Man 2016! Yes this is a lot & I don't recommend YOU to try this!!

6:50 Morning workout! Cardio + CORE for 30min Bcca, Glutamine + handful of almonds
7:30 8 eggs + 200gr Oats + blueberries & strawberries + avocado
9:30 400gr Beef, 400gr Sweet potatoes, handful of spinach & greens
11:50 Bcca, glutamine
12:00 400gr Chicken + 400gr potatoes, greens + some fruits
14:00 Blender = 150gr oats or sweet potatoes, 2 bananas 150gr kelloggs rice krispies, frozen berries, handful almonds, peanut butter and glutamine
14:30 Training strongman, Bcca, glutamine, Vitargo
17:30 60gr protein + 2 bananas
18:00 500gr beef + potatoes, greens
20:30 500gr salmon + 500gr sweet potatoes
22:30 50gr casein protein or 6 eggs + avocado + 30gr almonds + 50gr peanut butter

Drink a lot of water throughout the day + Juices to get more calories!! middle of the night 50gr casaine protein or raw eggs.

We did the math, and his eight meal a day diet clocks in at over 10,000 calories. And that's on the low end of the spectrum, given that we didn't calculate the calories in his greens, protein powder, and his "handful" of almonds, which is probably a lot more almonds than the average person can fit in their hands.

But given how large Björnsson is and how much training he does - he works out once at 6:50 a.m. and trains for the Strong Man competition again at 2:30 p.m. - he definitely needs these calories. He even recommends drinking a lot of juice throughout the day to get even more calories or having some raw eggs for a midnight snack.

Seriously.

"Yes this is a lot and I don't recommend you to try this," Björnsson said. Fair enough.
