*We all need to go back and check these:* - Thor pulling 474 | 1045 (WR) like nothing in 2019 and also missing the 501 | 1105 mainly because his left heel slipped. - Thor pulling 458 | 1011 and 472 | 1041 (WR) in 2018 after Sandbag over Bar, Odd Haugen Stone to Shoulder and Timber carry. - Thor pulling 465.5 | 1026 in 2020 after Trial by Stone, Sandbag over Bar and Conan's Wheel of Pain where he pushed it further than any of this year's athletes. This year ASC also allowed the guys to wear Briefs/ powerlifting bottoms and back in the years the guys did them all raw! *Good luck to everyone who will battle it out for 2nd, 3rd, 4th & 5th places next year.*

[@Steefanari]

Also during this ASC: Thor and Dan Bell casually pulling 396 | 873 for fun without straps while half of the guys here couldn't reach that weight with straps in competition.

​@@Doubledexter to be fair, they were much stronger 😊

[@aaronbarlow4376]

Thor opened at close to that and finished with world records, all over 1000lbs. Thor was a monster deadlifter and untouchable. But you're right, the Eddies, Thors and Shaws were all 1000lb lifters, it's definitely surprising to see sub 1000lb lifts winning.

[@Kragatar]

Hooper is always so surprising because he doesn't look as thick and bulky as the other guys.

​@captainbiceps4903you reverse grip cleaned 150 kg lmfao

[@emiliospowerballer1441]

To put things in perspective, Thor smoked 1046 pounds as if it was nothing, and then proceeded to lift 1105 pounds half way. The current lineup can not go beyond 1000 pounds, let alone 990 pounds. Keep in mind that Brian Shaw did not manage 1049 pounds. This shows just how much of a monster Thor was at his peak.

[@thinkforyourself2109]

You can't really compare Thor or Shaw to normal men. They are monstrously huge.

Lots of naysayers in the comments regarding hitching. 1.) This is strongman. As Loz said, A to B is the name of the game. 2.) Break 800+ off the ground or better yet, qualify for this competition, and maybe then someone will care.

[@A-A-RonDavis2470]

@@SvenTheShoeBuyer It takes around a year for a lat to come back fully. Nick Best tore his lat in a PL meet, came back to the same event the year after and competed again. Also, the max deadlift isn't his strong suit, so it's another mental block with that. I wish he would just ramp up his recovery and deadlift training and just screw trying to stay around 150 kg. He needs to get used to about 160 kg. He won't peak his deadlift unless his BW and training are honed in. I don't think he has the smartest programming around him.

[@Nelagend]

My math on these bar weights doesn't add up and it bothers me. 881 pound total (Rob Kearney's first attempt) - 65 pound bar - 720 for 8 plates on each side - 35 pounds from a big white (10), small blue (5), and small green (2.5) on each side = 61 pounds worth of clips? Does this bar really have 30.5 pounds worth of locking mechanisms on each side, or is there another plate I can't see? Edit: Luke Stoltman's 886 had 9 plates for 810 which would indicate 5.5 pounds of clips on each side, so there must be 25 pounds per side hiding somewhere I can't see on the 881 pound lift.

They lift more than twice what I do, my goal is to lift half of what their top lift is. 250kg is half of the WR so i'm aiming for that. I'm currently at 210kg, I love to rewatch these events for inspiration. I don't get disheartened because I'm 51 and natty.

Shoes can make you slip, also they add rom (range of movement) because shoes add to your height, for the second question, they are smelling special salts that in simple words boost your adrenaline and make you a bit more energetic, if you have any other question ask me I'll gladly respond

Yes it is, why wouldn't it be? It's called hitching, it's allowed in strongman. The 'dead' part of deadlift just refers to the weight being static so idk what that breakdown of the name is supposed to be saying

The deadlift just refers to picking up a dead weight off the floor with no momentum. Doesn't matter how it gets from A to B in Strongman. This isn't powerlifting. Just like push pressing, split jerk, clean and press etc. are allowed in the log lift. No one complains about lapping an Atlas Stone instead of one motioning it.
