British athlete shares incredible throwback picture of himself with a pierced nipple at the age of 13 - but can YOU work out who he is?
What were you like at the age of 13? We all mature at different rates, but it's safe to say some hit the semblance of adulthood much sooner than others. You get some superhuman teens who can cut it with the very best - think Ethan Nwaneri making his Premier League debut aged 15 years and 181 days. Meanwhile, there are others who look beyond their years. People joked that Luke Littler looked 35 when he made his entrance on the World Darts Championship stage aged 16 in 2023. And fans are in disbelief over a rare photo which has been posted by a British sporting favourite, allegedly from when he was 13. The image shows the youngster stood shirtless near a beach wearing nothing but shorts, trainers, and a ring piercing on his left nipple. Can you guess who it is? If you need a clue, think plane-pulling and keg tossing. That doesn't ring a bell? He's a former World's Strongest man winner, having claimed the gong in 2017 when he edged out Hafthor Bjornsson and Brian Shaw, and now plies his trade as an MMA fighter. Still not sure? Well, it's none other than Eddie Hall, AKA 'The Beast,' who now towers six foot, three inches tall over most other men. He's the former holder of the world's heaviest deadlift at 500kg, before Bjornsson came along and broke it by a kilogram. Hall claimed he drank 20 bottles of Lucozade the night before that record attempt and that he 'put on two stone overnight' Muhdo, an English Health consultant company, analysed his DNA and epigenetics and found a variant in the gene MSTN. Fans could scarcely believe that Hall was just 13 at the time of his photographs That anomaly allows for a greater muscle mass and size, partially explaining how he went on to be one of the world's brawniest brutes. Fans on Facebook were in disbelief that we was '13' at the time of the post. He also claimed that he was 'on the doors' at the time - perhaps a jest, but likely a reference to the security work he picked up in his teenage years. 'Thirteen my left foot... that's a 19/20 year old man,' wrote one fan. 'Good muscles for 13,' said another. 'You must be kidding me, bro looks like me at 29 years old,' one commented. 'Thirteenth birthday bash at working men's club after 30 pints,' another quipped. 'Thirteen years old grown man,' one said. Hall has done this shtick before, and it is hard to know whether he is being serious. Last year he shared a photo of himself, apparently at 16, looking like a fully-fledged movie villain, packing muscles most men could only dream of.

Boston Celtics jersey history No. 20 - Brian Shaw (1998-92)
Boston Celtics jersey history No. 20 - Brian Shaw (1998-92) The Boston Celtics have had players suiting up in a total of 68 different jersey numbers (and have three others not part of any numerical series) since their founding at the dawn of the Basketball Association of America (BAA -- the league that would become today's NBA), worn by well over 500 players in the course of Celtics history. To commemorate the players who wore those numbers, Celtics Wire is covering the entire history of jersey numbers and the players who sported them since the founding of the team. With 25 of those jerseys now retired to honor some of the greatest Celtics to wear those jerseys, there is a lot of history to cover. And for today's article, we will continue with the 17th of 31 people to wear the No. 20 jersey, Boston guard alum Brian Shaw. After ending his college career at UC Santa Barbara, Shaw was picked up with the 24th overall selection of the 1988 NBA draft by the Celtics. The Oakland, California native played his first three seasons for Boston with one season in between infamously overseas, leaving the team via trade to the Miami Heat in 1992. During his time suiting up for the Celtics, Shaw wore only jersey No. 20 and put up 11.1 points, 2.9 rebounds, 4.6 assists, and 1.1 steals per game.

New Bentonville Square project to preserve historic jail, add housing and retail
BENTONVILLE, Ark. ( — A new mixed-use development is planned for downtown Bentonville, with developers saying the project will add residential units, commercial spaces and underground parking while maintaining elements of the area's historic character. Blue Crane, a Bentonville-based development company, announced the project on April 25 in partnership with Riverside, a development firm based in Austin, Texas. The planned development will span Second Street between NW A Street and North Main Street, just north of the Bentonville Square. According to a news release, utility relocation began earlier this month, and full construction is scheduled to begin in early 2026. The project will include updated street-level storefronts designed to reflect the appearance of 19th-century brick commercial buildings, according to concept renderings provided by the developers. Plans also include restoration of the historic Benton County Jail, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. 'We really tried to create a space that honors the square's importance while carefully introducing new architecture and amenities to serve our growing community.' Brian Shaw, a member of the development team at Blue Crane, said in the release. Rock music movie filmed in Northwest Arkansas releasing next month The Arvest Bank branch on the square will temporarily relocate to 215 NW A Street during construction, with plans to return in a redesigned space that includes a community room. The project also adds residential units to boost housing availability and support local businesses, alongside new commercial space. Plans include underground parking to improve access while preserving the square's walkability and public areas that connect to the Razorback Greenway and A Street Promenade. The north side of the square was last significantly redeveloped in the 1980s, when many of the original structures were reconstructed.
