Jean-François 'JF' Caron (born June 29, 1982) is a Canadian strongman and powerlifter from Les Hauteurs, Quebec, Canada.[1] Having competed in 73 International strongman competitions and winning 10 of them including World's Strongest Viking twice, Caron is among the 20 most decorated strongmen of all time.[2]

Strength Sports

Powerlifting

Caron holds the world record in the deadlift for the WPA Powerlifting organization. Caron lifted 850 pounds (390 kg) on March 14, 2010, at the CPA Provincial Championships in Sherbrooke, Quebec in the 308 pounds (140 kg) weight class, weighing in at only 280 pounds (130 kg).[3]

World's Strongest Man

Caron has competed eleven times in the World's Strongest Man contest: in 2008, 2011, 2012, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021. He has reached the final nine times: in 2012 and then each year between 2014 and 2021. Caron's record in the finals has progressively improved over time: he placed 8th in 2012, 6th in 2015, 5th each year between 2016 and 2018, 4th in 2019 and 3rd in 2020 - his best finish.[1] In the 2021 competition, Caron returned to 5th place, having torn his hamstring during the first event.

Canada's Strongest Man

Caron won Canada's Strongest Man a record 9 consecutive times, from 2011 to 2019. In 2016, he won all eight events in the contest, the only time a competitor has managed a clean sweep at the Canada's Strongest Man competition.

Other major strongman competitions

In 2011, Caron finished in 2nd place at the Strongman Champions League events in Canada and Latvia. [4] Caron finished 2nd again at the 2011 SCL Finals in Sarajevo, Bosnia on Feb. 7, 2012, and 4th overall for the 2011/2012 SCL season.[4]

In 2012[5] and 2013,[6] Caron won North America's Strongest Man after coming in 2nd place the two previous years.

In 2020, Caron placed 2nd in the inaugural Shaw Classic. [7] At that event, Caron set a new world record at the time in the Hummer Tire Deadlift, lifting 1,202 lb (545.2 kg).

In 2021, Caron placed in 2nd in the 2020 World's Ultimate Strongman (also known as the 2021 WUS Strength Island) held in Riffa, Bahrain. Later that year, Caron placed 3rd in the 2021 Shaw Classic and 5th at the 2021 Rogue Invitational.

In 2022, while competing at the 2022 Arnold Classic, Caron suffered two torn patellar tendons and an injured ankle during the Austrian Oak Log Press. [8]
