Orm Storolfsson

Orm Stórolfsson, also known as Orm Stórolfsson the Strong[1] (fl. 920–1005 CE), was an Icelandic viking who gained considerable attention during his lifetime for extraordinary feats of strength.[2]

Vormsi island (Swedish: Ormsö – "Orm's Island") in Estonia is possibly named after him.[3]
