The current record is held by hafthor bjornsson, just because you don’t like it doesn’t mean you can dismiss it
It certainly shouldn't be dismissed. Hafthor did a great lift. However, the reason it isn't labelled the World Record in this contest - the contest that has become the gold standard of professional deadlifting - is because it simply wasn't done under the rules agreed that the strongman deadlift should be done under. Also -and this isnt meant to be in any way anti Hafthor - but his lift iis not the '' HEAVIEST DEADLIFT EVER'' even,. So were we to decide to use the highest deadlift ever, that can be done under any conditions, as the gold standard for the World Deadlift Champs , then the 'Record' still would not be Hafthor's record that we would be using! (Please do 'SKIP TO THE BOTTOM' of this reply if you want the quick version, and to fully understand what we mean in that statement. Go to the last few sentences of this reply for the punchline :-). Let me also say this - Hafthor Bjornsson has done the heaviest conventional style deadlift ever. End of discussion. But much like in weightlifting, powerlifting or athletics, when a standard is agreed upon and created, you have to respect that and if you want to break that agreed upon record then take the record on in the conditions agreed upon. Please allow me to explain what I mean: Well, in 2014, the World Deadlift Championships was created. it followed on from other Last-Man Standing Style Strongman Deadlift contests that had been were run in Norway, Madison Square garden and Leeds Headingly (to name a few pro-contests that it began at and stayed the same. At these events the rules were laid down so that a real deadlift event could happen and it would really see how strong the athletes were in comparison to say powerlifting and any other strength sport that incorporated the gym deadlift in its training. Thus showcasing how good these strongmen had become at the conventional deadlift - note/ conventional deadlift and not the sumo. That is another key element. So too, is the format, in other words - how it is being run. it is a contest run in a high jump rising bar style, ie/ you continue to follow on from the man before you as long as you are both succesful or you may wish to pass the lift to conserve energy; but you weren't limited to three lifts. The straps were allowed to keep the hands from getting shredded at the start of a long contest that often had 6 to 8 events, But when the beast dead lifters in the world expressed interest in taking part, as it had grown into a very good spectacle to watch as an event and was a great way to validate how much you could lift in a proper deadlift when competing amongst your peers, we began to make sure other rules were tighter than previous strongman deadlifts. We decided to use the Okie bar as our standard lifting bar though a Texas deadlift bar would also work. Multiple international referees would check the calibrated weights and load the bar each lift. No dropping would strike strictly enforced. One deadlift suit was allowed only. No erector briefs or baby oil was allowed. And with those rules in place and a large prize fund created for it the World Deadlift camps was formed. So we aren't saying Hafthor hasn't lifted the weight he has lifted but he didnt do it in the format we set up this contest under. Hafthor was following his own rules - not the set of rules put in place for the strongman style of competition. It would even be arguable that it wasn't a competition at all. After all, he didn't win first place over a group of his international peers did he? He wasn't selecting the weights to pass or take in the same way athletes competing in this contest have to. A guide set of lifting weights is suggested before hand but ultimately the referees dictate the next jump in weight at the World Deadlift Champs. On the contrary, Hafthor went at his own pace and using the lifts he chose to make that record. There are other obvious issues that are becoming clear I hope now you have read this so far. The list of differences goes on, it was a different bar that Hafthor used and we have no details on what actual equipment he wore on the day. There weren't multiple international referees on hand to check and measure everything. It must be said that Magnus Ver Magnusson was there to referee it but he has stated he didnt get involved in weighing things as it wasn't apart of the format set up. So th the hear referee did not weigh the weights. (NOTE = we too not think they were wrong - I dont think any tampering has gone on on and I want to state that - but you start to understand why when you put together and agree a set of rules to play by they must be followed to make the contest and any lift an authentic one). Again - I stress - that doesn't mean his lift wasn't amazing , and it merits all the plaudits it got. it was a hell of lift. Hafthor has lifted the heaviest conventional deadlift I have heard of. That being said, are you sure it is the heaviest deadlift ever? (please, skip to end if you cant be bothered to read all my many discussion points as there is a punchline worth reading). Anyway - in this instance I would draw similarities to the great shot putter Brian Oldfield as he had the unofficial shot put world record for some time and it was universally praised for being an extraordinary feat of athleticism. it didnt mean the IAAF or the Olympics had to use the throw he did under whatever conditions it was done under as their World Record. it would be unfair on the men validating their lifts under such conditions, as it was essentially done in an exhibition environment that lacked the necessary controls agreed by shot putters the world over. So there is no ignoring the fact Hafthor has lifted 501kg. But in this environment it's wrong to put the lift on the same pedestal as the world Record conditions the men you see in this video are lifting under. Maybe Hafthor's conditions were harder?! Whatever way you see it it simply isnt the same scenario and thus it isnt right to pretend it is or we make a mockery of competition rules. The lift no doubt stands alone as one of the most amazing feats of strength. But that doesnt mean the World Deadlift Championships should recognise it as the true World Record and the one they must use. Just as the Strongman Deadlift shouldn't ever expect powerlifting to start recognising the Strongman World record as theirs. In powerlifting you have other world record holders who have all agreed to lift under their federation codes and rules. I believe Danny Grigsby has pulled the biggest deadlift outside of the IPF system. He pulled a some deadlift of 487.5kg I believe. Still the highest conventional raw pull is Benedikt Magnusson at 460kg (or as of the time of writing it is) The highest equipped deadlift I believe is still mr Andy Bolton. The IPF deadlift record which is arguably the strictest of all sets of rules has a record of only - Wierzbicki Krzysztof with 420kg . So with all this info in mind - if you want to only consider Hafthor's style of record as the biggest ever then really it should be disregarded as in the same manner as Hafthor's lift, the same IPF lifter, Krzysztof Wierzbicki, pulled 502.5kg in a gym pull with some contest rules to it. It's on KZhead so please check it out. For us its a same deadlift which automatically disallows it, but it is actually the heaviest deadlift ever. However we won't be using that as the World Record either. Hope this makes sense and seems fair.
@@GiantsLiveSTRONGMAN first off, as much as you like to consider yourself the official rules of all things strongman that’s just not the case. There is no governing body of strongman so saying that it didn’t follow your rules so it shouldn’t count is bullshit, the lockouts on dumbbell at words were horrendous but were still getting down signals and good lift calls that was so bad that Brian shaw publicly made a call for judging reform. Had there been a record broken though, it would have been accepted (multiple national records were broken and accepted) just like when iron biby had a bent arm at lockout he still got a good lift and “world record” from your judge. That proves that despite there being no official standard(apart from no sumo) agreed upon by all federation, as a collective we can agree to trust the judging standards set by major federations despite some competitions and officials having significantly looser standards (giants live, wsm, mvm). We’ve agreed that we won’t discredit the athletes for the organizaters shortcomings. Also strongman records are frequently broken in “exhibition” lifts, just a couple weeks ago at uks strongest man there was a couple records broken that were “exhibition” lifts, a few years ago at summermania Mateusz kieliszkowski broke the dumbbell record as an exhibition lift and my favourite example- the current log lift record held by iron biby which was an exhibition lift done at the giants live world tour finals, a lift which crowned him the 2021 world loglift champion and a awarded him a world record despite not being “in competition” Saying hafthor went by his own rules is a bit of a stretch since it mimicked other max deadlift formats (to the bests of its ability) in a time when there was no other option. Secondly don’t act like Eddie didn’t get to choose every aspect of the night he pulled 500kg, we’ve all heard the testimony given by multiple athletes present that day who’ve said the entire event was catered towards Eddie pulling 500kg, there’s even been word that Eddie supplied the bad. And yes the weights were not calibrated by multiple international referees but to the knowledge of the fans they’ve never been calibrated at giants live shows, we expect them to be calibrated but it’s never been proven. Are we just supposed to blindly trust you? I can say beyond a shadow of a doubt that the weight on hafhtors bar was the listed weight, the same can not be said for any giants live competition because there is no proof. We can accept the claims of eleiko or mirafit or whoever else is sponsoring that event but there’s always a possibility that the listed weight is more than 0.25% off the actual weight. For all we know Eddie could just be the worlds strongest looking actor. You say he didn’t take first place against his international peers, does that mean national competition don’t count? Might be time to look into britains strongest man and see if any records have been broken there. And again there’s been plenty strongman records broken by single competitors in single event “competitions” Mvm can say he wasn’t involved with weighing anything but we can see him on camera watching while everything was being weighed giving a signal to the people placing the weights on the scale seemingly gesturing that he approves that they’re the correct weight. And again giants live has never calibrated their plates to the knowledge of the fans. We’ve never seen the weights on a scale, just on the bar Drawing a link between strongman and shotput/Olympics is pointless because of how suffit he sports are. First off the olympics had its own records for everything, and only acknowledges records set at the Olympics(huh I guess not that different from you and wsm). Shotput I only know from 8th grade track and field so I won’t comment on that but I will use powerlifting as a stand-in for comparing sports is pointless. In powerlifting there’s a million different weight classes and age classes and amount of supportive equipment in order to provide adequate distinction between records…except there’s no distinction between wether the lift was highbar or lowbar squat, sumo or conventional deadlift and gymnastics or real bench press. There’s also no distinction wether a standard powerlifting bar was used for all 3 lifts like in the ipf or if there was different bars, danny grigsby pulling sumo on a kabuki bar and Jesus olivares pulling conventional on a power bar is very different lifts yet they’re considered to be the same with the only exception being weight class and one is drug tested the other is not. In strongman there’s a different record for every type of deadlift: there’s conventional, elephant bar, hummer tire, silver dollar, 18 inch, Ukrainian, car with front handle, car with side handle, axel from standard heigh, elevated axel and they all have different records. Do we know all the records? Maybe auntie Liz and the guy who runs strongman archives do but none the less they all have different records. And lastly if you want to include deadlift variations (which is what sumo is) then neither Krzysztof Wierzbick nor hafthor would have the heaviest deadlift of all time, rauno heinla would have the heaviest deadlift ever at 580kg
@@dantethunderstone2118 we didnt say we were. The opposite in fact. You are right we dont have the right to dictate to all strongman. But we do have the right to make the rules and the format for our event. Please note - we were asked why we as in WE dont use the Hafthor record. We didnt say all strongman must consider this. We answered it from our perspective. Make sense?
@@GiantsLiveSTRONGMAN the way you explained it made it sound like you think that only records set under your federation should count Also quick question, who has the record for heaviest atlas stone over bar and who has the British log press record? Also what are those numbers
Doing a single lift in your home gym on your own terms and when you feel like it is much different than having to stage up through a competition, with nerves, and maybe not on your best day... there's a huge difference. Stop.

This really shows how insanely strong Eddie was at 2017 to be able to pull off 500 kgs.
Tbf he pushed past his strength. He used mental training and hypnotizing
@@basicmeme1040 If he did it he did it, his CNS would have to be capable of it even with hypnotization.

@@holliswilliams8426 yes my point is he went past these guys capabilities and nearly died he pushed himself to his brink
It’ll be a long time before anyone makes as big of a jump as Eddie did on the deadlift world record.
Interesting thought…. Probably it is pretty unlikely when you consider it went from 463kg to 500kg in one night. So, I haven’t done this on a calculator - but I think a 37kg jump from 463 to 500 is an increase of roughly 8 percent. So, If someone were to put another 8 percent on 500kg, well, in relative terms it would take 40kg. That is to equal it by another 8%. So- 540kg would be needed. And, even if we are talking in absolute terms, then it’s still a weight jump of another 37kg = a pull of 537kg to get the same jump again. So it’s big!! Lol !! really big!
Hafthor. He is the champ. In boxing and deadlifts.
Nobody will ever do a jump of 35 kilos in one day ever again and that a fact.
@@josteincarlsen2905 yeah OK dafty lol.

This looks like the closest Ivan has come to pulling 505. It would be such a remarkable feat to see him get the 505 before he retires. No man deserves it more.
Peiman is closer, but neither are close, really.

Absolutely amazing! Ivan I think you'll do it one day! 💙
I got faith in Makarov, Pavlo and Bishop. These three looked good in this competition. Guaranteed they'll be better in the next one. Can't wait to one day see a new world record deadlift 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
That Eddie face at the start was awesome 😊
This show is so well produced, very nice commentary, overall a very cool watch!
Love watching these videos , been to many giants live events and for even my mrs who isn’t into it , it’s a great night! Love watching Adam bishop , effortless strength!
Huge respect for Ivan, his lift truly shows how difficult it is to move half a ton even for some of the physically strongest mens humanity have ever seen. Huge respect for Eddie hall for making us know it is possible.

World`s Strongest Fan and Lifting Vault are highlighting a lot of up and coming STRONG deadlift athletes.
Witness the WORLD DEADLIFT CHAMPIONSHIP 2023, LIVE in Cardiff on September 2nd, 2023 st the Cardiff International Arena in Wales. Do you see a 505kg lift happening there? With names like Graham Hicks, Adam Bishop, Rauno Heinla, Evan Singleton, Tom Stoltman, Oleksii Novikov, Pavlo Nakonechnyy and Ivan Makarov amongst the many stars of strength we hope to see at the show - .Is there anyone out there we have yet to see and deserves a call up? Maybe there is someone who deserves a shot at the contest and could finally claim the $55,000 bonus for a new deadlift World Record?
Amazing though Jamal is, it's a bummer that he is not taking the full opportunity presented here. He had 9 months to practice in the suit, straps and strongman "double belt", maybe even go for the 505, but he has said he'll only use straps, no suit etc. I don't know why he's avoiding this opportunity for immortality (and a big pay day) but it's a shame for the fans.
Also, is Peiman gonna be there?
@@BuJammy I agree - I was hoping that he would really go for it, But he still has 3 months to go
True🤣🤣🤣💪💪💪💪💪💪
Awesome, but sad that we can just see the lifts from the front, then the replay is on the face of the lifter where we can see his snots and mucus running from his nose, rather than seeing the actual lift from, well idk, perhaps the side could be interesting.
I still got chills from Eddie's 500kg lift! That will always be something special to me.. mad adrenaline from watching this lol😂
What an epic high level competition 💪
the thing I like in this competition most is the that the other competitors are actually encouraging the performer to do his best
Damn he got passed the knees, that’s the hardest part coming off the ground. That was so close
He has a suit on and he's pulling super narrow. Off the ground is actually pretty easy for Ivan. He really needs to crank away on that lockout work.
I think he slipped a bit in his socks and may have benefited from more grip
All the top-level strongmen tried to break it in very small increments. Like with 1kg (0.2%), 5 kg (1%)... This shows what an incredible feat Eddie pulled off, to the very limit what humans can do.
I LOVE Giants Live productions! You all rock. Deadlifts from NY LOL. Anywho, Eddy's speed rep with 465 was mind blowing. Then, he hit the 500 kg, bleeding, but damn sure looked like he had a wee bit more. I say all this because we see today all the top competitors chasing his competition lift...still. Strongmen got me off my rear end as a teen and into the world of strength and i have never looked back. So much respect for all of the athletes. It is by far my favorite sport! I have actually met Paul Andersons wife! I was in heaven to see his trophy room and weights. Again, lots of respect to these fellas. Eddie set such a high bar for his fellas to chase and it brings out the best in all of us. Keep up the great work everyone. Im behind you💪💪💯
Incredible show
Ivan will do it one day im sure of it! Hope he stays injury free and gets it done. Will be insane. He's so close
he has some great biomechanics also... man has a huge wingspan for a 6 foot tall man.
LOVE THIS.
thanks for letting us know
*Anatoly:* "is a good weight for warmup" *laughs hysterically*
That Eddie clip is legendary asf. The blood is insane
You guys showed that Savickas did pull 1000 pounds but i have hard time finding it. Standard height most i have found is 440kg.
I see the Eddie and Thor fanboys are still going at it even after the boxing match settled the score between them. Both of them did what no one thought possible 20 and even 10 years ago.
agree - both were extraordinary strongmen
That boxing match wasn't to settle the score it was to make a big f a t paycheck and nothing else. 😂😂 There's no score to settle, Eddie did it in competition, Thor didn't.
@@daemonx99 Eddie did it in a competition where that was the only event he participated in. By your logic, can we really say it was true competition conditions? I'm not knocking Eddie. That shit's insane to watch to this day. But the fact is that they both did it, and the current World's Strongest Man, Mitchell Hooper, mentioned both of them in the preview of the 2022 World Deadlift Championships.
@@daemonx99 also the score to settle was from the 2017 WSM controversy, not the deadlift. Thor's biggest bruh moment at ESM 2016 was the yoke anyway. But yes, if you wanna be cynical about it, it was about the money.

Gabe Peña, you're a STAR! Love ya man.
Hats off to these guys
I have to say, all that beef and nonsense aside, I think Thor's 501 is the world record and the disclaimer "out of competition" is unfair. I don't think for a second any of the processes that went into his lift, from verifying the plates to how it was refed by Magnus, is anything different from a Giants Live event, WSM, etc. I think it's fair to point out that Thor's lift came at an unprecedented time. Comps couldn't be held and to set a goal, build toward that over many months, and to be set to peak to challenge the 500 get axed because of the pandemic is harsh. It's not ideal, but I think the commentary pointing out the would be asterix is unneeded.
It's already broken. 502.5 kg
@@razor_ramon_ Wasn't that a sumo lift? Respect where it's due, but if he lifted same means Eddie and Thor did, I don't think he's even hitching that, let alone getting it past his knees.

Adrenalin can be one of the most powerful things in the world. if used the right way. I´ve been there myself. But, I think it´s a must to take advantage of when you´re lifting those mental weights
Benedikt magnusson would start shaking before his lift, as he got himself into such a ''berserker'' state
I belive makarov will hit that 505 kg someday
I sincerely hope so - he has been soooo close too many times now.
Me too, hes got a good 10years on him easily if he doesnt get injured. He might need some different training program or better nutrition and maybe a little bit more weight (like +10-20kg) :)

@@lyrand6408 because if they went for 502 they would acknowledge Thors record and Eddie wouldnt like that, and they want to have good relationships with Eddie
You mean Thor's world record?
You right, as they never acknowledge Thors 501 so if they wanted to break it by 1 kg it would 501 which would then bring more controversy. That said nobody has looked close to 500/505kg. Makarov has stalled at the same point below the knees several times now. He is strong off the floor. Has always struggles with lock out at his top end.
quite an accomplishment

It's fantastic to hear them acknowledge that Eddie holds the world record; it's a fact that cannot be disputed. As for Thor, his accomplishments do not overshadow Eddie's. Even giants show allegiance to Eddie's cause, which speaks volumes about his greatness.

Hafthor is the world record holder with 1105 lbs.
Not anymore. 502.5 kg is a new record.
Krzysztof Wierzbicki did a sumo lift of 502.5kg successfully. Do we count it? If we count Hapthor, which wasn't done with the complete strongman rules (although the plates were measured, but not by an official sanctioned referee-Magnusson said that wasn't part of his deal), we must count Mr. Deadlift, "Wierzbicki"!

Give Pavlo a couple years and he'll get it. He's only 23, Makarov is 30. Pavlo is on track to be the best deadlifter of all time.
I've always believed that it isn't strength that fails us on these types of lifts. Once someone does it and another learns how the first trained for it and succeeds, then the weight becomes lifted by droves of people. The 500kg+ is slowly being reached. The problem is that the last guy (Hapthor Bjornsonn) that set the record left it difficult to replicate due to his unique build and genetics. I do not believe that will be a hurdle for too long. I believe that 50% of the lift for these guys is a mindset!
Nobody has demonstrated more confident lifts at these weights then Haftor Bjornson, in my opinion. But of course, his lift of 501 kg can't be considered as official record, that is certain. I still believe he has the greatest potential to make an official record if he decides to attempt it again.
He should have done it back then…he’s injured now and that time has passed😯
Hafthor is finished. Don't say his name anymore.
It was also done at home. Big difference between that and doing it at a competition where you will never be 100% ready. World records must never be done at home.
He should do 505 instead 501
@@nugienugraha2326 501 is okay, but he should do it in a competition. Not in his home gym.
Don't forget Andy Bolton didn't use straps!
He didn't use straps - a true 1000lbs pull... But when he did a world deadlift champs in 2014, he used straps, but was so not used to them, (no kidding) he put one of them on backwards in round 3 - 440kg - and obviously failed it, lol ... he laughs about it now
Pavlo is only 23, incredible, one to watch for the future
eddie hall is amazing
Btw, Giants Live, 501 is more than 500.
Are we saying 501 is less than 500? Whats the timecode?
@@GiantsLiveSTRONGMAN in the description at the 00:00 timestamp it says "intro to the current world record" and shows the 500 kg deadlift, the current WR is 501 kg.
And 502.5 is more than 501
@@razor_ramon_ the 502.5 kg deadlift was done without verification wasn't it? So it's unofficial. Also, a sumo deadlift is different than a conventional deadlift.
Eddie Hall and Hafthor, still living legends.
I want to see them fight again.
Thor abitbof a baby usikg his dead kid as reason why he shoukd of won not eddie that made me hate him and he was just like a jealous brat hahahaha eddie is stronger then him in everyway nothing to prove thor is trying his life to be and beat eddie he admires him so much secretly hahahaja
Eddie hall First and ONLY! man to ever lift 500KG In competition. Yeah Buddy
Thor Bjornsson has the 501kg world record and it was pretty easy for him
It's already broken. 502.5 kg
@@razor_ramon_ but that wasn't sanctioned by any organization & no referee. + We do not want to see sumo... but yeah, it was impressive! ...but different
@@GodmyX right
So I take it, there not counting Thors 501kg lift as official world record then ?
He did it out of official competition so it can't be verified.
@@lordramuel1082 Yeah but there is no Official !! in strongman.. There all just breakaway organisations..A lift in 1 isn't recognised in another.. Its ridiculous.. As much as I dont like the guy, Thor has the real world record.. Nobody wants to admit it though..
Eddi 500, thor is fake
@@emilianogarciamastuerzo9224 Judged by Magnus Ver but you go ahead and tell us that isn't worth anything...lol, clown
@@lordramuel1082that’s not how it works Thors is legit
世界初のデットリフト505㎏期待してたが、後もう少しだったのに凄く残念です。今後も期待してます！
Larry Wheels can take this world record if he really wants to. that 930x3 while this man focuses on bench and squat at the same time. He can if he wants to
No he cant lmao, not even close
Eddie Hall. Still king of the competition deadlift.
Sadly... not.
Wrong, Thor is, he has all the deadlift records in competitions except this suited with straps on deadlift bar, which he has in record breaker event.
ah yes 1113kgs
whoops - thanks for pointing it out
Makarov was almost there again, so close to being able to pull it, he might get it one of these days.
shouldn't it be 505kg/1,113 pounds?
Yes.
changed
@@GiantsLiveSTRONGMAN lol. i respect it 👍
Eddie is still the only one to pull 500kg in a competition that's crazy.
7 years in the making
I bet they had nightmares of Anatoly invading the deadlift arena like: "sorry can i clean here?"
10:37 How my mom wakes me up for school.
Are we accepting that Eddie still holds the record and Thors home gym jazz was meaningless? Great!
You skippy. Every pro feels the same.
I think it's better to step up and show us wat is meaningful
Thor definitely lifted 501, just during covid
They did say "during competition" never said Thors did not count or did not happen :)
Competition and exhibition records are different kinds of records and both are valid, but should not be put in the same category. The fact is that Thor still did 501 and no one else ever has in or out of competition.
Wait, I thought Thor was the deadlift record holder, not Eddie!
Eddie has the official record while Thor the unofficial one
Of course he is the official record holder. WSM is just being silly about it and it's all a massive circlejerk for Eddie...
wondering how the f eddie and hafthor lifted that much weight.just insane!
The beast eddie hall legendary status
Eddie is the beast and still the champion, thors attempt is meaningless out of competition 😅
What other lifts did Eddy do before the 500 kg pull?
@@colaturkalures your question is irrelevant to me 😆
@@lazerusphoenix7526 he didn’t lift any. Magnusson was the ref in this and Thors lift. Thors lift counts
@@specialist812003 No, it counts for nothing unless under the competition guidelines, in my opinion. If he goes under the competition and does it OK. Until then, Eddie is the first and only one to lift that weight.
@@lazerusphoenix7526 okay
Thanks
thank you!
these are men who have been affected by hulk gamma radiation, is there a limit? makes impression and envy, sometimes I think what will break first, if the bracket that holds the weights or the implosion of their bones under the weight, congratulations to these men and their extraordinary strength. p.s I forgot about the blood pressure in the head
Get out of Eddies arse Thor lifted more an made it look easy
No one said he didn't - Hafhtor's 501kg was extraordinary. There was no doubt more in the tank for him.
That he did, 4 years later 1 kg more
Funny when eddie did it The whole event was set up for him Just like his wsm man win His weights His bar Not certified But thors doesnt count? Sycophants
Do you use your tears to lube up Hathors c*ck?
It wasn't 'his weights', the bar was one of two made for the event. It was certified, under BAWLA, the oldest weightlifting association in the world. Of course it was 'set up for him', he's the one that suggested lifting the 500 in the first place, when no one else did. No one said, at any point during this broadcast or any other "Thor's didn't count", it just wasn't done in competition, and this *competition* is called "The world deadlift championship". Calm down, madam.
@@BuJammy calm down madam lol
Are there 2 categories in dead lift, one with straps and one without? If dead lift is all about who can lift the heaviest weight then surely grip strength without straps is, or should be part of that?
Maybe if the bonus was considerably higher than £55.000, like £505.000 i think the record would more than likely get done more often.
500kg almost killed Eddie. Thor didn't break sweat. We all know who is all time best at deadlift.
Eddie is.
Also b4 u say some dumb shit eddie raised the deadlift record by almost 40kg himself and it took thor 4 years after eddie did 500 to lift "501"kg in his home gym.
It almost killed eddie because he hold it for 5 seconds, not the lift it self
Thor is totally fake
@@Klepzeiker1984 15 seconds at least
I think ivan should try at 501 or 502 or 500 is still he managed 505 almost to his knees that's also a feat but we love you ivan you are true warrior
Makarov the next world record deadlift 505kg
Makarov was close he just needs to improve that lockout strength which can be done by increasing his glute strength, he managed to do the hardest part so I personally think he will manage the 505kg in a few years or less.
Seja feliz do jeito que for. Sequências deste esporte é tenebroso.
People acting like eddie hall did 2 wsm events before 500kg or that warming up doesnt help. So many dyel strongman fans.
IKR. What do think of the 505 happening? I don't think it's happening anytime soon. Peiman might be closest, closer than Makarov, I think, but neither of them are really close.
3:42 “he could break your heart with a smile” Me: 🥵🥵
Eddie Hall is THE BEAST!! he 100% earned that nickname,The Beast,with that half ton deadlift world record!!? He's awesome and in 2017 especially he was just unbelievable and 100% deserved his Worlds Strongest Man win in 2017!!? In 2017 Eddie was just insanely strong! He set this Deadlift WR and won Worlds Strongest man in 2017!! The things he did to gain weight and muscle in 2017 was unreal and was pretty dangerous!? I know he had 1 scare in event b4 Worlds Strongest man I think it was? He got a cramp in his chest and he even thought he mightve been having a heart attack!? He was probably lucky to have been cleared to compete in WSM by Dr's!? But he was cleared and apparently was good to go and was fine cuz he did what he had to do and won WSM 2017!!!?? I love Eddie Hall...him Brian Shaw, and Robby Oberst r probably my favorite strongmen!? I didn't really watch or know shit about strongman, I'd seen a few WSM events on tv b4 but didn't know any of the guys, but when History Channel came out with "the Strongest man in history" show I kinda got into liking strongman and got to know a Lil about Eddie Hall,Brian Shaw, Robby Oberst, and Nick Best. And from the show u really got to like those guys especially Eddie Hall cuz he's not only strong as hell but also funny as hell!? So is Oberst!? And Shaw is just amazing with his strength!
(19:32) Eddie looks super happy no one beat his record :)
Hafþór is the GOAT and he made it look easy!
Wasnt this last years footage?
