Legendary TV strongman Geoff Capes leaves eye-watering amount to his wife in will after death aged 75 LEGENDARY TV strongman Geoff Capes left a huge amount to his family in his will, documents reveal.
The 6ft 6ins star, who still holds the British shot put record, was also twice named World's Strongest Man.
In one 1983 advert, a suited Capes heaved a car on its side as the voiceover said: “You don’t have to be the richest or strongest man in the world to pick up a Polo.”.
His first victory came in the World's Strongest Man event in 1983 in Christchurch, New Zealand, and the second was two years later in Cascais, Portugal.
The Olympic shot put hero passed £239,000 to his wife after he died last October aged 75.
