  • deadlift - 1018.5 pounds

    I wonder if anyone called him a lard ass, or tub-o-lard..or maybe chunky...and got away with it.



    congrats to eddie hall. Supposedly one of 3 people in the world in the half ton club (recorded in pro competition).
    given the math..

    he weighs in at 381 pounds.

    he dead lifted 2.673 times his weight.

    what would each of us have to lift given the math?
    I'm a lightweight -
    368 pounds.
    I suppose it is about proportion.

    Well he certainly doesn't need a cherry picker to pull an engine.

      My neighbors out here in the woods...
      even the mom was over 6 foot and 300 pounds. The father dwarfed the mother.
      the one my age could pick up a 327 complete, no problems.

      If to ever witness the unusual sizing to be free to potential, changes outlook on a lot of things, humbly so.
      I do not giggle at the paul bunyan statue in maine..it is a sign of extinction to me.

      Glad to see that guy break a record. That is potential in action, unhindered.
      Just two generations in my own family has sasquatch to runt, and still hunching over everywhere we go... it is very sad. A spirit breaker.

      I pay attention to those contests, especially newsworthy.
      I actually shared a picture here of myself, I was the size of a 5 year old, after just learning to walk around 2. My mom taught me the word pituitary.. and I did get some doctors.

      The way I feel inside... I am real glad to see the guy lift.

        I watched this yesterday. This guy is a freaking beast. I was proud of my 425lb pull but this...this is jaw dropping....
