Eddie Hall breaks silence on furious incident with motorist after threatening to 'rip his head off'

Eddie Hall has directly responded to a viral video on social media which showed him furiously chasing a car away from his house while shouting a series of expletives.

Three-time strongman champion Hall, who made his professional MMA debut last month, confronted two motorists who had stopped outside his house in Newcastle-under-Lyme.

A 30-second clip of the incident was uploaded to social media, in which Hall could be heard furiously screaming at one of the drivers in an X-rated rant.

He shouted: "F**k off, or I'll f**king do you all. F**k off ... I couldn't give a f**k. What about my kids?"

After that exchange, the motorist attempts to drive away from Hall's house only to be chased by the former strongman, who exclaims: "Get out. Get out, you f**king p***k. I'll rip your f**king head off.

"All of you. Get out and I'll f**king rip all your heads off, you p***k."

Sat behind the driver who was filming the incident, a child can be heard crying as Hall approaches.

Hall would later address the incident on his official Facebook page, stating that only the final 30 seconds of a 25-minute incident was filmed.

He added that three different cars stopped outside his house at around 9pm, and were leaving his children 'very scared' by 'beeping their horns outside'.

He then apologised for 'upsetting [the driver's] children', and further explained the incident: "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 deat.

"I asked you all to leave, and the blue BMW driver said, and I quote, "I'll knock you out". So I got angry!

"My house is not a public attraction and I am not public property to use as a photoshoot at 9pm at night."

In a second statement, Hall added: "He keeps saying he was parked two doors up but this was the 3x cars literally outside my property for 15mins beeping their horns, filming/taking pictures, and even someone stood looking into the driveway at one point.

"After Alex [Hall's wife] asked them to move on they gave her a lot of abuse and all parked the other side of the gates 5 metres down the road for a further 5mins before I came around and confronted them. And was told I'd get knocked out!!!

"Again I'm sorry I upset your kids ... I didn't know there was kids present until you said during the last 30 seconds as all your windows are blacked out, 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 this situation who are upset... but that includes my own children too through your behaviour."

He added: "I stand by my stance that coming to someone's home at 9pm at night and waking kids up is wrong and it needs to stop ... IT'S GOT TO STOP!!!!"
