Sajad Haribi is a 24 year old powerlifter based out of Iran that gives new meaning to the word ‘big.’ In fact, Haribi is so big that he’s being likened to a real life version of the Incredible Hulk, or as he likes to call himself, the Persian Hulk. And truth be told, Hairibi looks like he might even be able to man handle The Mountain from Game of Thrones.

Over the past few months, Haribi has started to pick up a bit of fame as his Instagram account has exploded with followers. Just a few weeks ago, for instance, Haribi had about 59,000 Instagram followers. Today? A cool 108,000.

As one would expect, Haribi’s Instagram account has no shortage of photos depicting Haribi showing off his gargantuan frame and posing with adoring fans. Not content to simply be a powerlifter with worldwide Instagram fame, Haribi is reportedly hoping to break into pro wrestling with the WWE.

A few of his more notable photos can be seen below.

Apparently Haribi sometimes likes to kick back and play a little bit of PS4. He’s just like you and I!
