bodybuilders try the Rolling Thunder Challenge

[@Woozah337]

I want to see the grip strength challenge somewhere like a farmers market or something with normal blue collar manual laborers. Maybe a construction site? Id be very curious to see the results.

[@MNhvacPRO]

I am a fitter. I want to buy the holds just to see what will happen at the hall. I know a dude that could probably push 200 maybe 220

[@AirGuitar]

This is a great idea. Construction site would be perfect.

[@oninja1919]

Sheet metal workers would be interesting

[@spyder2001]

Great idea. It reminds me of the video Magnus has done 'Pro Arm Wrestler challenges people in public' there was a furniture delivery guy that was unbeatable and he'd never done proper arm wrestling before. Construction site labourers, farm hands, brick layers, removals people etc. working all muscle groups 8-12h per day...

[@noneyabizz8337]

Very insightful of you

[@kevwoos]

@@OriginalPuro I understand not being a fan of the art style (I wasn’t at first) but its still a great idea of taking a competitive tactical shooter and adding character abilities. They’ve done a really good job of making it balanced and a actual good game.

[@anaysodha1778]

you’re telling me that this man just argued “my opinion is correct and nobody else’s opinions matter” with reasoning? you don’t have to give a reason. valorant is both awful and amazing simultaneously because those words are completely subjective. the only way we can come close to a subjective conclusion on whether valorant is good or bad would be with an average of how people perceive it and i can’t be bothered to research that but i’m assuming it’s quite positive. so basically, you’re both wrong and you’re both right but you should also both shut up

When that last guy failed at 190 magnus should have just casually lifted it.

Just wanna say massive thanks. Because of your channel I went bouldering yesterday for the first time and loved it. Can't wait to recover so I can go again.

[@adamlong5295]

[@xXPinkPunisherXx]

Magnus you should do another video or two with Anton doing these cash challenges at construction sites/near them. He could probably help find you some plus I bet the tradesmen would have great results! Some of those guys are crazy strong and Anton has done some similar challenge type videos with construction themes in the past!

[@isaaccross8745]

Nate (Thor) seemed really cool. His website has a ton of healthy food recipes. Would love for you to track him down and do an episode climbing with him and then a second episode cooking and trying his recipes!

[@KuaDak]

Pro climber pretends to be a beginner was the first video I ever watched. It took a few more videos before I became interested in climbing. I then went back to the beginning to watch the old content before being fully caught up. For months, I've been asking myself, what ever happened to normal girl? I finally found her instagram and concluded that she's still there. I'll finally be able to relax while watching the new vids.

[@rotisseriechickenlover-jb4cc]

that thumbnail is crazy 💀

[@zGJungle]

Please do some grip challenges in the UK and tell me where and when, I have been wanting to test my grip for ages, at work I can lift stuff that a lot of bigger dudes can't due to my hands being strong. Also I think you should start training for Armwrestling, you already shown your power translates to AW, you already have the power and tendons for it, few years training and you could be very good in your weight class and it's a pretty easy way of getting good views as AW is on the rise big time.

[@Grejegando]

Ok, to those of you watching this and wondering why all those muscular guys unable to do it, here's why: The trick is in the grip itself. This is not just a weight lifting challenge, it is primarily a wrist muscle test. The black grip on that thing has a wide diameter and you're only allowed to grab that, not any of the metal parts. As soon as you grip it you'll notice that you are unable to bring your fingers together just as you would grip a dumbbell for example. This makes it extremely slippery (hence the use of chalk) as well as the major advantage a person with big hands would have over another with small hands. This is why he always emphasizes the height element because usually height goes hand in hand with bigger feet and bigger hands. So before you start flexing your muscles understand that this challenge has to do with bone structure more than with training or workout. I'm sure most guys you saw in this clip are capable of lifting the maximum weight if only they could get a good grip to do it.

[@pandyabhavan]

As a climbing and valorant fan. This was kinda dream collab.

[@pandyabhavan]

Does this mean magnus is gonna play valorant next? :P

[@KevinArantes]

next time you should include an additional weight class for females if you do max strength challenges. Still enjoyed the video a lot :D

[@last_details]

Today I learnt: don’t go to the gym if you want to be strong.

[@MikkoRantalainen]

Or weights relative to candidate bodyweight, rounded upwards.

​@@MikkoRantalainen pound for pound gives a huge advantage to small guys, but the handle gives and advantage to huge hands. This is one where I agree, maybe not for weight but for hand size.

Great grip strength video. I took a Rolling Thunder to the gym & a few people could lift more with their "weak" hand. One woman was surprised that she could lift 30 lbs more with her weak hand/arm.

[@tragicrhythm]

Interesting! I wonder if it’s because she tired out her dominant hand or if this lift actually utilizes more muscles on the opposite side of the body doing the lift.

[@targeted1948]

@tragicrhythm one hand wasn't more tired than the other. She just had a stronger grip with that hand. I told her I'd check her grip strength again in 3 months of working out to see what the results would be.
