I Will Pull 505

It's no longer an "if I can," now it's a "when can I..." I'm formally putting my name in the ring to compete for the DEADLIFT WORLD RECORD. If Thor wants to pull, I want in. Thor, if you're watching, let's make this the biggest deadlift showdown ever!

[@alexanderbuess290]

everyone who has pulled 1000lbs within the last few years should be invited and be able to show what he can really do. Nothing more credible than having all possibly capable guys there and giving them a shot.

[@BUFFALO_cougar_slayer]

I’d love to see what they can pull with powerlifting standards where straps aren’t allowed. Just to sate my own curiosity if any of them can still pull a grand with no straps

[@alexanderbuess290]

@@benedgell3787 I’m perfectly aware. I’m simply curious how it would translate. I also wonder how the best deadlifters in powerlifting would do with strongman rules. Aren’t you just a little curious?

[@sid3kickid]

The Ambassador of Strongman at the moment for sure

[@Ptrck]

Brian Shaw is the guy to make it legendary. Toughest calls of all time, great setup and no bad blood with anyone

[@antoniocenteno1483]

Shaw's rules are exactly the issue though. He put a couple of things that make the DL a bit more demanding. Both 500 pulls where done with standard deadlift rules for Strongman. I agree guys shouldn't hang the bar from the strap, both figure of 8's, suits, and normal (open hand) grip has to be there

[@jedinxf7]

he certainly has some bad blood with Thor lol but i think they've decided to be adults

It’s crazy how Mitch is closer than a lot of deadlift specialists who have been training primarily deadlift for longer than Mitch has been training strongman in general.

[@lukecullins9934]

Given ever since SMOE finished he's been competing as well so perfect recovery let alone focusing on just deadlift wasn't even something that could be realistically possible for him and he still got it to his knees so fast 😅

[@antoniocenteno1483]

Remember Mitch has done 475 in the past and he got in the sport as one of the guys to beat the record. He is better now, bit common guys, how does everybody forget such a fact?

[@OrthodoxAtheist]

Parameters: (A) Public show, with live audience, no smaller than an auditorium (and streaming - ppv is fine, lets be real, but not HBO level pricing, GL/Shaw pricing is fine). (B) No fewer than 5 competitors. 470 lift evidence for entry. (C) Weigh the bar and weights all set up, on stage, with super-calibrated weight machines (calibrated on stage). Also use caliper tool to evidence height of bar from floor. (D) Loz and Terry on the Mic. (E) Eddie in the audience w/ interviews of predictions, and food stipend. (F) Maggie as front judge. Shaw as side judge. (G) Prize money no less than $50,500, but preferably $100,000+ (someone call Turki Alalshikh!). (H) Attempt order: Mitch before Thor (so you can have the sole record for 8 minutes before Thor calls for 506). (I) Stage to be cleaned between lift attempts by Anatoly.

[@konichbork8346]

Perfect!

[@odysseusnissan]

I love the Anatoly part! How funny would that be if(and when) Mitch breaks the record and Anatoly comes out and moves the bar for cleaning? Mitch needs to do a collab video with fake weights(for Anatoly to keep up with him).

Thank you for going for it at giants live. It was one of those rare moments that don't happen often where I got to be surprised. I always picture you as the athlete that just plays it safe and does what is needed to win the show strategically, which is respectable. But when I heard them announce that you would be going for it I was like "what did I just hear" then to see how far you got it! It made my day, so thank you and know that I will be just as excited to see you complete it, wherever and whenever that might be. ❤

Awesome! Now we have two of the best in the world running for it. Maybe it should take time between late January or early February so it doesn't clash with the Arnold's. Maybe, other than Mitch and Thor, the guys that hitted 470 should be invited too, plus Andrade, Ragg, Bishop and Evan S. Calibrated plates, with calibrated bar, collars and all weighed in a scale like Thor did. Oh, and definetly a standard deadlift bar. No Texas or Kabuki Important: Let guys pick their numbers, and Arnold or SMOE kind of system where they can choose what they like to do before the record and of possible in the powerlifting system, so instead of a raising bar Ya'll an do what you feel like like I'm the SMOE or 19', 20' Arnold's.

I think you are correct about the feel of the weight. I'm not a strongman, but I recall when I was delivering bags of coal, when I started the bloke said there's no difference between a 40kg bag, and a 50kg bag. I thought he was taking the piss, but when the bag is on your back and you are moving, he was 100% correct. I think you have the fight frame of mind to succeed at this.

[@richardlin2359]

Aside from the record, I think pitting yourself head to head against Thor in a deadlift competition/event is the right kind of excitement/motivation that both you and Thor would need to be able to lock out those final couple of kilos. That back and forth to see how much higher the world record can be pushed in the next few years would be one heck of a legacy.

I love Mitch's confidence. It's not false confidence. It's an honest and logical breakdown of what he needs to do to make it happen. Most of his competitors are all about brute strength. Mitch knows the most important thing is mental strength(he's already got the physical strength) and the right tightness of the suit. I can't wait to see him and Thor do this. I hope some rich Saudi's offer up $1 million prize for the record breakers.

Honestly Mitch, I have to apologize. I watched the livestream with my feyonce and when you came on the platform she asked me "do you think Mitch is gonna pull the 505"? And I was like "nah, Mitch didnt prepare for this, if Hicks, Heinla and Makarov didnt pull it to their knees, Mitch won´t even break it off the ground. I´m surprised he even attempts this". And then you were the one who came closest to actually lift the 505, not just in that competition, but in all the years since Thors 501. Hats of to you Mitch, I was already a fan of yours before, and I only doubted you this ONE time and you still at least partly proved me wrong. Go for it! And PS: It is very inspirational to see that you dont need to be a 200kg meathead to be able to be the best in the world

[@filipsikora1973]

I genuinely believe, have you had decided to give it all at the Giants Live, meaning willing to risk injury and just grind it up, you would have pulled it already out there. Your form was spot on, the speed was really good. Which is just insane, given the circumstances. It was the right call not to risk injury, obviously. I really hope the DL WR will happen with Thor present, so you can push each other to the limit.
