Untitled edit
Rumors of Magnus' demise are greatly exaggerated. This user seems to have a history of inserting fictitious dates of death in articles of people who are still alive. Dsreyn 13:35, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
Lifts edit
Someone listed his best bench press as 300 kg RAW. The most I've seen mentioned for him, and the most his site claims is 270 kg.Cephlapod (talk) 14:40, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
"Squat: 280kgx10reps; with belt and knee wraps." Magnus' primary weakness was his lower body strength so I find this claim suspicious.Cephlapod (talk) 14:40, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
43 shoe size??? edit
That's impossible!
It's 47 and that's euro size. 47 euro=14.5 american. Claidheamohmor 06:30, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
Okay, that is possible, then. Thanks for clearing that up for me. :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.168.164.108 (talk) 23:47, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
His entry into rallying should be mentioned also? 92.25.242.14 (talk) 13:20, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
Steroid use, or lack there of? edit
It should be mentioned that Magnus states on his site, "My ambition was to see how strong I could get, and I am totally clean, which proves that success is possible without drugs." Very few strongmen even mention the subject. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.33.2.160 (talk) 00:36, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
Acting Career edit
As someone who had never heard of Samuelsson before he became a star of the Swedish crime drama series Arne Dahl, named for the pen name of author Jan Arnald, I feel this article dramatically underplays his acting career. Arne Dahl is being shown on British TV right now, so considering he's a TV actor in a show that's being screened in two countries (that I'm aware of), I think we need to update his occupation and the first line of the article to reflect that he is, at least currently, an actor.

Place of Birth edit
Place of birth is wrong he was born in Kinda kommun south of Linköping. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.228.152.185 (talk) 09:39, 6 January 2017 (UTC)
Claims with no source or evidence edit
Much like the 300 kg bench press nonsense, the claim that he has been a European Arm Wrestling champion is wrong too. If its real; what year did he win? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.72.91.6 (talk) 16:46, 24 May 2022 (UTC)
