DEATH BY DEADLIFT ATTEMPT BY THE WORLDS STRONGEST MAN

In 2016, while prepping to pull 500kgs, Eddie Hall completed the "Dead By Deadlift''. A Massive Pyramid Deadlift that goes up from 60kg to 420kg in 40kg increments. Today, I attempt it with pound plated and we go from, 135lbs to 941lbs.
Wish me luck.

I really love the fact that you’re pulling out interesting feats of strength from other people and challenging yourself. It gets me inspired ! Check in with Eddie to see what bar he used .

[@chrism4841]

Yeah Mitch said it was maybe a standard gym bar but Eddie had his own bars at his gym strength asylum, he talked about one of his bars getting locked up that big wide one after a few people hurt themselves with it.

[@Realchad250]

He used the same one that he used for 500kg, which is his personal deadlift bar that he locks up in the gym that he goes to.

[@sheboman19]

yeah, the bar is a must. with the flex normal bars have I dont think you'll be able to get it without plates sliding and falling off. Not sure how Eddie managed that. Could be his bar also had slightly longer sleeves.

[@Ont785]

@@Realchad250 Sounds like a road trip to me!!

[@IISocratesII]

If i recall correctly he used an Okie bar, not sure if it's a power bar or deadlift bar though. He mentioned it a long time ago on his channel.

[@krafty864]

Just shows you just how impressive Eddie truly was at his peak

[@bdegrds]

Every who knows strength was impressed by Eddie long time ago

[@gretapunberg7052]

I mean we all knew that lol. The only men capable of this are Thor, maybe Pavlo & Rauno.

[@agentbobbarker]

@@gretapunberg7052 you must not pay attention to the sport to think Thor could come close to doing this.

[@gretapunberg7052]

[@brucebanner645]

Eddie was the best static lifter of all time in his prime, his strength feats were insane.

[@bulk4life]

The crazy thing is that he did it twice because he forgot filming

[@santiagosteven6105]

When I look back Mitch, I see the guy in the white cap could have holded the plates on the last lift. 5:55. You look tired but I know you could have done it. It's going back down that's the hard part.

[@Milkydrummer]

If 380 was a grind… doing 420, and THEN another 380 would be very tough… then 360… it just sounds horrible 😂

[@Chimpmanboom]

I love little challenges this like. Not only is it great to see strength pushed to the next level but it also in a way celebrates the athletes that came before.

[@boydmccollum692]

You should try Brian Shaw's 5 rep seated 176lb Thomas Inch DB shoulder presses. He lifted them into position by himself too. Like DAYUM.

[@andrewharris3417]

Yes that lift was insane. Would be great to see Mitchell attempt it.

[@bdegrds]

Incline chest press not shoulder press

[@tylerbryant2152]

Absolutely would love to see this

[@boydmccollum692]

@@bdegrds fair enough, it's been a few years since I've seen the video. Doesn't change the mega-ness of the lift. Most WSM strongmen would have trouble lifting one DB off the ground, let alone two. Then lifting them into position? Not sure any can do that right now. Love to see Mitchell try though.

[@mattpkp]

100% insane

[@JaxManny]

Man sorry to hear that you are going through stress and having to re-prioritize your life and feel like you are letting people down. Being hard on yourself is part of being successful. I really relate to that feeing and it gives me reassurance to know that even the world's strongest man struggles with some of the same stuff I do. Thank you for being someone to look up to.

[@TheDreadnought]

Amazing attempt! 💪👏 Crazy to think Eddie Hall did it without a belt too. 🤯

[@52factorial-prob]

Give it a go Mitchell! I hope Eddie sees this and gives you some hype!

[@luke303]

Eddie's was also beltless... But amazing job Mitch! Would love to see you try it again

[@deltalima6703]

Beltless is not very smart. They dont add to a proper deadlift anyways. Not like knee wraps, suits, and sumo.

[@animalscars3799]

@@deltalima6703beltless is way better… it develops ur abdominal muscles hence why even at the body fat % that Eddie is his abs r still visible and absolutely massive. Wearing belt will stop ur abdominal muscles from activating and won’t strengthen them

[@ghosthero0806]

@@animalscars3799 this is an absurd understanding of what the belt does. the belt gives something for your abdominal wall to brace against, enabling much more activation of your abdominal muscles than beltless, which is the real reason you can lift more safer with a belt. you can use your abdominal muscles MORE with the belt. that's the advantage.

[@Vipinnnn17]

He was not in the end of the video you can see Eddie had a belt on

[@kavishU0902]

​@@animalscars3799 Just completely incorrect, there are studies showing abdominal activation and hypertrophy from wearing a belt is equal or greater than not using a belt. Your comment is pure bro science bud.

I can't imagine going to commercial gym and seeing that happen. I'm surprised to see people deadlift 5+ plates in a commercial gym

[@YourVeganFoodExplorer]

This is frikin’ EPIC!!!! Not only shows you are a beast but shows just how hard these challenges really are 🤘

[@Thulgore]

I don't think you need to worry about your fans and clients being to let down. It's kind of insane how much extra you do.

[@u04pww2]

No way, I suggested this in the Tom Platz video and youve actually tried it. What a legend you are!

[@riselikethephoenix1]

Thats why it has to be done on a stiff bar. To reduce plate slide

[@Jezza025]

great effort moose, attempt #2 and you will smash it. watching from Australia! as some others have said - Eddie's Bar was a custom bar which stopped the flex (i think?). Ive watched Eddie's 500kg deadlift so many times and the aftermath after his WR500kg pull was insane.

[@alienuniverse3806]

You are single handily changing the game these are the sort of strength feats I know iv been waiting for! LOVE IT YOUR THE MAN WITH THE PLAN

[@GodlessShredder]

See you working hard Mitch you seem like a high strung workaholic type you should upload more regularly! Maybe talk about stress management and keeping a tight schedule as well as just plain training vlogs talking about your current goals and stuff! Kyriakos hit 100k subscribers recently and he barely talks in his videos and pretty much trains how he wants, I'm impressed by your accomplishments in strongman and as a marathon runner but would be interested in whatever training you feel like recording!

[@preston2636]

I would really love to see you do the Dinnie stones. You are such an inspiration to me. My brother passed away a week ago and the gym and your videos have saved my own life and thanks to your dead lift seminar I got the confidence to dead lift I was able to do 200 pounds for 15 reps my first time last week. Thank you so much moose. You are making a positive impact on my life. I would of relapsed on drugs due to this sad time in my life and because of your videos I decided to train instead and haven't skipped a day since I started. you're appreciated
