Torbjörn Samuelsson, born in 1973, is a Swedish strongman competitor and the younger brother of Magnus Samuelsson, who won the World's Strongest Man title in 1998. He won the national Sweden's Strongest Man contest twice, in 1998 and 2002, which placed him among the leading strongmen of his country during that period. On the international stage he took part in the World's Strongest Man competition in 2000, 2001 and 2002, though in none of those years did he qualify for the final. His career is therefore best described as that of a national champion who reached the sport's biggest annual contest repeatedly without advancing to its closing stage, while his more celebrated brother carried the family name to the world title.
