Recorded on November 3, 2012. The Lilliebridges (Eric, Ernie Sr and Jr), Pete Rubish, Brent Willis, Vince Urbank, George Leeman, Chris Hickson, Dan Green, and Brandon Lilly all pull in the same flight.

[@contrarian4762]

Chris Hickson's form is painful to watch.

[@essjayyell]

The lift is GOOOD

[@TheDubtFire]

see the 8th minute when vince is about to pull, kid in the background doing curls lol

[@Masterofmonotony]

thats eric or ernie jr's kid!

[@TheDubtFire]

seriously man? thats his kid?

[@Masterofmonotony]

Yupp im 99% sure :)

[@jeddharrispersonaltraining9787]

Ernies 4:40 lift didn't look locked at all..?

[@jeddharrispersonaltraining9787]

That would be me in the background at 8:11

[@arodis12]

Vince Urbank legs are soo long lol...

[@zereflinob8270]

thats what you need for a deadliest long legs and arms with short torso

[@GeorgWilde]

Arodis M Good for deadlift, terrible for squats tho. I have very similar proporions and squats are hell.

[@Medreg1983]

Brandon lily certainly had the easiest looking deadlift

[@jacobXfury]

God, I hope Lilly is able to get back close to 100%. He made every single thing he touched look so easy.

[@sayed986]

Can someone tell my how many lilliebridges are there?i mistake one with another because they all look the same

[@MadeInGefle]

Sayed Bilal 3: Eric, Ernie Sr & Ernie Jr

[@MadeInGefle]

***** Haha

[@_flex5k]

Man, watching Leeman makes me emotional. Dude's a savage.

[@ErnieLilliebridgeJR]

LOL, that's my son.

[@bistel1432]

at 8:06 there is a kid getting yolked in the background

[@usmanfarooq96]

Brandon is the only one to get all 3 lifts, also the only one to get successful third attempt He also got all 3 squats. Is he working at full strength?

[@hectorfigueroa2596]

Back before the lillies got jacked and tan

[@GZCL]

I heard just having the last name Lilliebridge adds 300 pounds to your deadlift.

[@TheJimMcD3SB]

@bibearfan It's you. Change the resolution to 720.

[@ezskanken]

I would go back home and eat everything I could, and drink homemade weight gainers for a month solid if I was lucky enough to walk among those MANIMALS! Today is deadlift day, great motivation!!

[@ratttttyyy]

im scared.

[@marshallfoulkes1383]

2:10 SNAP CITY

[@johnnycj]

Good lifting, but some of those deadlifts didn't have a proper lockout. Anyway, great to watch so many 360kg+ deadlifters at the same meet and flight

[@JrFireweb]

So this guy is actually just as strong as me, but because his name is Lilliebridge he is such a good deadlifter. Brb, changing my name!

[@donworland]

At 8:10 over Urbank's shoulder.....watch guys that little dude is coming for ya'!

[@americanmambi]

man do I wish I lived in that side of the country, seems like a bunch of really cool dudes lifting reaaaaaaally heavy, would love to hang out with them and learn as much as I could from any of those savages

[@timleung9477]

his form needs some improvement. I notice he's slightly rounding his back. You could hurt yourself man, be careful.

[@JFVisuals]

brandon lilly picks it up like hes got a max of 1100 wtf

[@HamburgerTrain]

Someone please explain to my why Dan Green didn't get casted as "Thor"

[@sonortubelug3853]

Pete's the only guy that actually performs any of these lifts.

[@BOROUGHH]

@9:50 Lilly comes out of his bear cave to pull some crazy weightt

[@tyrant7290]

A slight round of the back can be normal if yr dead lifting 800lbs or near maximal

[@occupiedaustralia9952]

How old was Ernie Snr during this meet.

[@agentbobbarkerify]

Its very unsportsmen like to scream fuck after you failed a lift.

[@NinJaTrainee]

Some mentality "I can't lift this weight.. BETTER GO HEAVIER" -.-

[@Wingsfan7]

I recommend no one ever google image search for Vince Urbank.

[@Webmaster070]

Urbank with the overhand grip damn

[@heathenimperialist7133]

What happened to these guys? Rubish, Leeman, and to some extent Green are all around now but the rest of them seem to have fallen off the face of the earth.

[@MyTigerUppercut]

Dan Green looks like a character from dragon ball z. Unreal

[@EvilSecondTwin]

Even when successfully completing an 865 LBS deadlift?

[@MrKoolaidjam]

it's a 1 rep max.... no way your form will be perfect

[@SolsticeRyosake]

Vince Urbank, 365 with an overhand grip, holy fuck!

[@bibearfan]

Is it just my computer? Very fuzzy image...

[@jjkappur]

that vince guy needs to work on those tiny legs

[@fuckamerica109]

brandons the coolest

[@anders23033]

why dose goerge leeman have the belt so high?

[@johndonovan5521]

I miss the old ST vids and crew 😭

[@TheJimMcD3SB]

Totally get that. Can't turn back time, though.

[@johndonovan5521]

@@TheJimMcD3SB very very true....but it can't hurt to dream......

[@tom000]

Seriously amazing...

[@GigaScaler]

Young aspiring powerlifter @ 8:08

[@GigaScaler]

Clearly a joke, don't be so srs.

[@GiacomoPhilipp92]

Sorry, but I think they know it better.

[@Jmack7861]

Rip chris

[@anthonyg4113]

8:34 you can hear Ernie's son yell "C'mon grandpa!" I wish my grandpa could deadlift 700+ lbs

[@benfoushee3142]

Young George Leeman!

[@Briax89]

ow noes.. wuss

[@jgadiaz]

what was Brandon Lilly´s total?

[@SentoukiEX]

Freaks, the whole lot of em!

[@ejramos44]

Why is he doing curls, then?

[@MrTheWhipster]

Dan had that...

[@dylansmith4411]

It looked like Ernie Jr. had a little bit of trouble with his starting position this meet. On some of his lifts the bar looks like it swings towards him a bit when it first leaves the floor

[@MattSmith181]

2204@SHW for Brandon Lilly

[@donworland]

Damn, technique! Every time I watch you cats I am just amazed at how no nonsense you all pull, boss!

[@Siili35]

they have massive legs.

[@theteckman]

you guys always have the best music my biggest fear joining a serious powerlifting gym is having them blast awful death metal the whole time

[@djonez85]

Dafuq?

[@elijahmilner9177]

This a deadlift flight of epic proportions. The only thing that could make it better is if Benedikt Magnusson was there.

[@johnmolteni]

Those near misses at the lockout are heartbreaking. So close! Impressive group.

[@EvilSecondTwin]

Over a 900? I wasn't aware of that! Regardless of wether it's a gym lift or not, that's very impressive.

[@risingsun_gt]

Leeman and Urbank make 800 look like a walk in the park. Ridiculous strength on display here!

[@dmiller0912]

hook grip.

[@averagescrubs]

LMAO

[@dmiller0912]

its hook grip. double overhand and hook grip are two completely different things

[@ThePasswordz]

i think pete would have alot more energy on his lift if hed relax and sit down for a bit. seems to to be standing up the whole meet.

[@s3v3nstr1ngd3m0n]

these are numbers i can only dream of. brutal strength

[@blt7791]

Urbank...double OVERHAND grip!! amazing

[@agentbobbarkerify]

hes actually deadlifted over 900 and hes like 6'6"

[@csjs123]

Great pulls everyone! I got fired up just watching.

[@maxwellcase5796]

they all seem to have the same belt? i kind is it?

[@binglongtin4659]

probably different brands but most common Is inzer. they are all 10mm leather belts tho

[@rooniejames]

Can someone explain how can Chris Hickson lift with that degree of back rounding and not get injured? I understand that pros sometimes do round their back and it's not a big problem, but this seems too much.

[@ianmcstruthers9937]

I believe he did get injured at somepoint

[@madsnakegym]

Eric is soooooo much bigger than that now. Crazy.

[@paujingtian]

So much power in one room

[@aragonification]

This deserves more views

[@SneeMacher]

outstanding meet! thank's!

[@LvsKira25]

why are they all con deading?

[@TonyMon16]

Think maybe cause it's better when doing raw deads?Look what happens to Dan Green the only dude doing suml style squats and sumo deads, he fucked up nearly every lift. in squat and deads.

[@compgod86]

Leverages. And Dan Green pulling sumo hasn't anything to do with why he failed the lifts.

[@pizzapizza2225]

I hate Dan Green's football field wide sumo stance. I find that conventional deadlifters tend to be stronger people, and that Sumo makes it easier. Example would be someone like Pete Rubish, who lifts what some 300 pound men lift

[@AslanW]

Except Dan Green is the strongest lifter in the 242s AND the 220s, so no, conventional deadlifters aren't stronger people.

[@pizzapizza2225]

True, but he's the exception

[@jageroda902]

Sumo is way more difficult than conventional

[@boxxer221]

Clarkstown Sloots All WR are sumo.

[@AslanW]

boxxer221 Erm.. No, the deadlift world record is conventional

[@itpiss2348]

leeman is king
