Following the likes of Darrell Hammond, Reba McEntire, George Hamilton, Rob Lowe, and Jason Alexander, Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson — better known as “The Mountain” from Game of Thrones and the World’s Strongest Man — is the latest to portray KFC's Colonel Sanders.

Björnsson recently starred in a new ad promoting KFC's Double Crispy Colonel Sandwich, which features two fried chicken fillets with mayo and pickles. "The Mountain" can be seen dragging 700 pounds of sandwiches, setting a world record for hauling the most chicken sandwiches in an over-arm pull.

Press play above to check it out.

You can purchase the new Double Crispy Colonel Sandwich — available in Smoky Mountain BBQ, Nashville Hot, and Georgia Gold Honey Mustard — at your local KFC.

Just last year 'Game of Thrones' Hodor relived his epic door scene in a KFC ad.
