A 505KG DEADLIFT WORLD RECORD? (Athletes & Predictions)

[@miskee11]

If Iron Biby can clean 505, he will press it.

[@craigpawalawski4232]

😂

[@tristanbunke1228]

I love this !!!

[@josemgraphic]

🤣😂🤣

[@zcddrew]

Lol

[@zcddrew]

I mean he's pressed over 505 (in pounds)

[@bobz4968]

Hicks has been very focused on the deadlift for a long time. I hope he gets it done. Thanks for the great content.

[@LalasBrothers]

We hope so too 🤞

[@craigpawalawski4232]

Can't see anyone pulling 505kg only person that I thought might do it was Hicksy but his last 465kg looked almost his limit ..Think each lifter should have 3 lifts and pick their own weights ...Hope I'm wrong

[@michaelholder98]

💯 agree. Nobody is getting 505. Thor can and will do it in 2025 if he stays healthy. He is in a league of his own…he was present back when deadlifting was at its peak in strongman

[@greenwendal5056]

@@michaelholder98 Saw him in Birmingham pull 360kg for 10 reps. This wasn't even him at top form. 😮 He looked like he had a few more

[@MatsVederhus]

I hope Graham will get it just to shut everyone up about Thor. Thor is great, but I hate that everyone’s like “he’s the only one who can do it,” he thinks the same way he likes the competition he like to be pushed.

[@LalasBrothers]

I hope that you wrong too 😊

[@Galaxy_Break23]

Thor is the one who will beat the record

[@michaelholder98]

BAHAHAHAHA You guys are the best! I love how real y’all are. The monkey on the laptop made me laugh my ass off. Love your videos, always have since day 1 and always will! Love the honest unbiased opinions where you guys aren’t afraid to say what ought to be said about things. Marine Mike 🇺🇸 💪

10am Australian time, excited to watch something Live for once.

[@LalasBrothers]

Good for you brother 💪

[@JamieVauxnut1]

Definitely watching it live here in Scotland. The way Hicks was talking earlier today i think hes DEFINITELY hitting 505kg 1.Tom Stoltman 2.Mitch Hooper 2.Iron Biby Remember in 2021 Iron Biby claimed a podium at the Gaints strongman classic even though he got injured mid show and missed 2/3 events

[@mattiamarinelli526]

We need king Hafthor to break the record

[@codybigredadams2186]

He's still training heavy deadlift so perhaps Rogue Invitational will give him the chance?

[@Goenie2005]

He will, just a matter of when it suits best in terms of planning.

[@LalasBrothers]

I am pretty sure that he will, at some point next year.

[@miskee11]

btw the guys keep saying wrecking ball hold isn't about grip, it's just about holding on. hooper said everyone just locks their fingers against their thighs and holds them there and he personally thinks it's a worthless event. this means trey mitchell's poor grip might not actually cost him anything here.

[@stevecyork]

Bring back the classic 2 car hold 😊

[@Adam-bw6dj]

It's such a pointless event. What's the point of having a grip event that isn't really a grip event? So boring to watch, would rather have hercules hold back and I'd happily go without that too.

[@malcolm5514]

I gotta agree with Hooper though. Some people may think it 'looks cool' but it has no place in a strongman comp.

[@1vootman]

No one is doing a 505dl tonight. Only dude who's pulling that and more is the big Viking

[@LalasBrothers]

Hopefully you are wrong, i really want to see Graham to take this one.

[@justinwynn2294]

I just don't see anyone but Thor breaking this record anytime soon.

@@justinwynn2294 Hicks looks good for it.

[@justinwynn2294]

@@LalasBrothers hopefully he has been downplaying his training since that 465kg. It would be great for him to do it.

[@youtubeconnollyfamily]

I think Thor will be the first one to break Eddie’s official record

[@palmarolavlklingholm9684]

@@youtubeconnollyfamily Well he has already lifted more even if some people are complaining that it isn't official. But there is no doubt that he actually did lift 501. And relatively easy to. But i very much doubt he will go beyond 500 this year. But next year, for sure. Barring any injuries. Actually lifts from 500 and up, should not be allowed anymore. It is too dangerous for the lifters. It can outright kill them.

[@iysaw]

I think with Hooper he's just on another level of discipline.

[@RubbishGimpy]

I wonder if he has something wrong (or right) with him. He functions at a higher capacity than everyone else. Its constant, he doesn't stop.

[@samuel96100]

Great video lads 👍👍

[@LalasBrothers]

Glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@ianjames7524]

Only Thor is big and strong enough to pull this weight

[@erebus79]

Yeah most likely.

[@LalasBrothers]

Hopefully you are wrong 😊

[@RubbishGimpy]

Max Deadlift - comp. = A. Andrade, Trey, Hooper Car Walk - Hooper, Bibby, Evan/Williams Dumbell Press - Hooper, Trey, Novikov Wrecking Ball Hold - Boring, Williams, Hooper Atlas Stones - Tom, Andrade, Novikov/Evan/Luke Hooper will only have to lift 1 stone to cement his win.

[@deanrobinson2459]

I genuinely think Hicksy will do the 505.

[@LalasBrothers]

Yep 💪

[@andrewgilbertson5356]

I will stay up for it😂👏👏

[@LalasBrothers]

Go for it 😁

[@malcolm5514]

Biby said he was 215kg but that he had slimmed down to 'below 200' Luke Richardson laughed at him. Biby: Don't tell them! Luke: It said 199 on the scale at my gym 😂

[@LalasBrothers]

So heavy for his height 😅

[@ConnoisseurOfExistence]

I think Makarov is the favorite on the deadlift. I'm saying if both he and Hicks try 505 kg, Makarov's attempt will look better.

[@bobz4968]

I agree: Hooper, Tommy, Trey

[@LalasBrothers]

💪😊

[@juniperMcScot]

If you are going to be picky it's Scotland for Tom and Luke then please lol I hope Hicksy does it and Iron Biby could be in there too. The whole comp will be a good one though.

[@mattholt5063]

Hicks seems to be on a good trajectory for 505 but he’s gone a bit quite of late. Hopefully that doesn’t mean he’s plateaued and rather he’s at 505 level and keeping it on the down low. My prediction is 1 hooper. 2. Tom. 3 Evan; but I wouldn’t be surprised if Andrade podiumed. I’d love to to see biby put a performance in across all events.

[@slingmaster9994]

I hope Hicks hasn't peaked too early, that's my worry

[@erebus79]

@@slingmaster9994 Same.

[@cayasm]

Last year Hicksy had a pulled hamstring, and still won, even with injury he got the 505 to his knees,I do think there should be a 480 lift then onto 505. Lucy will beat her record.

[@Adam-bw6dj]

I think it depends what you mean by "to his knees." It was under the knees, it's not like it was at the knee and he just couldn't hitch it up. Imo he's still a way to go but I'll be staying up to watch the deadlift at least, would love to see it.

[@craigpawalawski4232]

100% agree Lucy is going to be the only one to break the record Lucy and Thor are in a different class.. Also if Mitch concentrated on DL he could join the 500kg club

[@dustinm800]

You said Trey looked big at SMOE but my profile pic is of me with Trey at SMOE and I'm only 6'2" 300 lbs

[@spikeyspike79]

So its Cheick Sanou the actual name. regardless hes either withdrawing just before the comp, after the first event or finishing in the bottom half of the table with a bit of luck.

[@yougotfelted8297]

Placing for top three 1.Hooper 2.Andrade 3.Ragg Its good to see Bibby finally competing again. I hope Oleksi comes in good shape he really has been falling off as of late. Im excited to see how Andrade places here that guy has great potential. Also no one breaks the 505, Kind of wish they would just go for max lifts and not just the record.

[@andrewgilbertson5356]

Hope they change the weight jumps. 480 would be good. Maybe allow them 3 lifts plus WR attempt

[@LalasBrothers]

I think organisers are mostly focus is on 505kg, than whoever can get 480kg.

[@Vampire__Squid]

Evan could be in a battle with Tom for 2nd, Tom has a alright deadlift but its not as high as Evan, the other events suit both of them pretty good, and finally Tom will come 1st for atlas stones.

[@DavidBChannel]

Can't wait to see Biby lift 1000lb, get confused and then overhead press it. 🤣

[@LalasBrothers]

😁

[@Vampire__Squid]

This is likely the last attempt. Theres no way we will be excited to watch the same guys keep trying the 505 KG next year.

[@bradvine4564]

Yeah if they were gonna do it, they'd have done it by now.

[@LalasBrothers]

I agree, that's why i hope that Graham will get it.

[@carlh296]

Totally agree re Tom and Luke. IMO Luke is certainly not the strongman he was, age and injury catching up with him. I'd like to see him become Tom's coach, be there with him through all the training and at every show. I think that would make a significant difference to Tom. 1,Mitch, 2 Evan, 3 Tom

[@Adam-bw6dj]

But if Luke knew anything about programming at the absolute top level he wouldn't need a coach himself. Maybe Luke competes still because he enjoys it and he's still a top level strongman despite not being in contention to win major titles. Perhaps he doesn't just want to help Tom all the time.

[@mediaproof960]

U realize Mitch has a coach and is also one himself?

[@Adam-bw6dj]

@mediaproof960 Yes as many top strongmen do. But that doesn't mean Luke has the knowledge to improve Tom to an ever higher level. At least with somebody like Loz he's got a bunch of clients winning titles and one winning just about everything. So to say Luke should just start coaching Tom without that prior top level experience is just silly.

[@MartinTeerly]

What happened to Bjornson why isn't he competing?

[@hammeredgimli8269]

Hicksy has a chance to pull 505 but it's not 90%. I'm thinking 30-40%. He hasn't posted a video in a long time, not sure if that means he's stronger or weaker.

[@LalasBrothers]

I was talking to him on the phone last weak and all i am going to say that i never heard him more confident.

[@johnyoung5413]

Neither of you not putting Evan on the podium is crazy. These are some of his best events, he’ll be pushing Mitch on this one 1 - Mitch 2 - Evan 3 - Tom

[@LalasBrothers]

How can we put him in top 3, knowing that in his last competition he got injured. We don't know how bad was the injury and will he be 100% recovered for this one. That sad hopefully your prediction is correct and he will end up in the top 3.

[@mediaproof960]

He was talki.g and said it was just a small tweak. Said he is fine but wanted to protect himself for the other shows this year. Hopefully he is on form.
