Eddie Hall, a retired British strongman turned mixed martial arts specialist, attempted to chase down a moving car after becoming involved in a furious row with motorists who allegedly created a disturbance outside his Staffordshire home.
Video footage circulated on social media showed Hall, 37, who won the World's Strongest Man competition in 2017, swearing at the driver of a blue BMW and threatening, 'I'll twist your f***ing head off' as the car pulled away following the altercation.
The film was captured by the driver of a second car waiting nearby, who complained that Hall's angry outburst had scared his daughter.
The footage depicts the final moments of a dispute that began off camera before escalating, with Hall claiming his children had earlier been upset by the honking of car horns outside his property.
As the two cars pulled away, Hall gave chase and a young child was heard crying in the back seat of the second car.
'Hey, get out, get out you f**ing p***k,' Hall is heard screaming. 'I'll f***ing rip your head, I'll twist your f***ng head off. All of you get out, I'll rip your f***ing head off.'
MailOnline has contacted Hall's representatives for comment.
The strongman took to social media following publication of the footage to clarify his version of events.
'9pm at night and you and 2 other cars pull up beeping there [sic] horns outside the house,' he wrote. 'You woke my young children up and they became very scared!
'You were asked very politely to leave after waiting outside my house for 15 minutes.
'You continued to wait outside my house, scaring my kids to death, so here I am asking you again to leave and you filmed the last 30 seconds of our interaction when you've been outside the property for a total of 25 minutes.
'So I asked you all to leave and the blue BMW driver said, and I quote, (I'll knock you out)... so I got angry!'
Hall, who stands 6ft 2in and is nicknamed 'the Beast', weighed in at almost 24 stone for his professional mixed martial arts debut against Poland 's Mariusz Pudzianowski last month, defeating his more experienced opponent inside 30 seconds.
Having narrowly failed to catch up with the cars, the Staffordshire-born strongman, who achieved a 500kg deadlift in 2020 - a world record at the time - turned on his heel and walked back to the house, where he was greeted outside by a woman who appeared to be Alexandra, his wife.
Alexandra later offered her own account of the incident, reiterating her husband's claim that she had politely asked the drivers to leave because they were scaring the couple's children.
'Perspective is a funny thing isn't it,' she mused in a Facebook post. 'You've shown 30 seconds of an evening whereby you sat outside out gate, for a longggg time, our private home, scaring our children.
'I came out to you and politely explained this myself. But you refused to leave and I was greeted my a mouthful of profanities of one of your partners?!?!?
'We feel like we live in a goldfish bowl, people knock on our house, drive past, shout, beep, every 30 minutes.
'How do you think that makes our children feel???? No, this isn't the price of fame, it's stalking, it's scary, it's intimidating and it's not fair.
'This is a dad protecting his babies and a very small piece of the picture. This doesn't show your behaviour tonight.'
Hall said in his own posts that the drivers not only caused a commotion but also took pictures and video outside the house, with one person 'looking into the driveway'.
He also offered an apology for upsetting the drivers' children, whom he claimed he could not see through the BMW's darkened windows.
'I'm sorry I upset your kids, TBH I didn't there were kids present until you said during the last 30 seconds, as all your windows are blacked out,' he wrote
'I'd had enough of arguing with you, you then told me you were "going to knock me out", and I blew up. I apologise for that!
'I massively apologise for upsetting your children and I would love to make that good somehow.
'That's the one thing I regret instantly, is that there are children in the situation who are upset.
'But that includes my own children too, th[r]ough your own behaviour.'
It is not the first time that Hall, who has four children, has been forced to contend with disturbances at his home.
In a video tour of his current home posted on his YouTube channel four years ago, Hall alluded to problems he has experienced with fans seeking selfies and signatures at unsociable hours.
'In my old house I had a lot of problems of people coming on to my property and knocking on the door at stupid hours asking for autographs and pictures, said Hall.
'I've had it where people have climbed over the fence to knock on.
'As innocent as that may, sound it's quite worrying.
'And since I've lived here, I was in my hot tub a couple of weeks ago, somebody just wondered into my back garden and literally offered me a fight, literally put his fists up and said, "Let's do some boxing training."
'So it just goes to show show, being who I am does draw the wackos, so the security has been the number one feature for me.'
