National Records that I missed: Nugongid Buranasate - Thailand - 400 kg / 881 lbs Aurelien Le Jeune - France - 400 kg / 881 lbs

[@anthonyproffitt5341]

Kind of puts into perspective how impressive 400kg+ is. You see so many top strongmen pushing over 450kg that one forgets how impressive 400kg is.

[@J.c410]

Great video. Would also add Aurelien Lejeune from France who just recently reached the 400kg mark.

[@AbuMuhammadalMuhajir]

Imagine having the 7th or 8th heaviest deadlift ever but not being in the list of national records because you happen to come from the same country as Thor.

[@thestrongmanhistorian]

I wasn't sure if the music fits, so please let me know if you like it or if I should try and find something else for upcoming videos. Thank you.

[@LiminalKitten]

Great music choice in my opinion!

[@EmilBBechGrip]

Loved the music but I'm also a huge nerd 😁

[@seniru95]

Music is good. I'd personally like to hear the actual background noises (and commentaries). It kind of adds to the feeling of the lift

[@ilDenTKD]

The Witcher 3 soundtrack, beautiful, great choice

[@Nirsterkur]

I like the music... 🎵🎶

[@Nirsterkur]

Great compilation! Sri Lankan national record is a puny 325 (717) btw. 😂 All the awesome national records and then there's the phenomenal World Record 8:43 *501 (1,105) by the* 👑 *King Hafthor Julius Bjornsson!*

MOUNTAIN THAT RIDES 😎

[@IRONRIDER97]

INDIA WILL BE AROUND 380KG

[@jcdenton250]

This channel is awesome.

[@user-ij3zz3pm1m]

Where is Aurélien Lejeune with 400kg for France?

[@miskee11]

great compilation. I know tuomas hautala of finland did a 420 kg deadlift too -- if gym lifts count. other cool finnish lifts: - 400 kg for 3 reps by roger karimus (gym lift) - 400 kg for 2 reps by juha räsänen (gym lift) - 405.5 kg by ano turtiainen (equipped comp lift) - 402.5 kg by jouko ahola (gym lift; one source claims he did 406 kg but I find it too unreliable) - 400 kg by jonne illikainen (first finn to lift it raw, in 2016 i believe) - 400 kg by aarre käpylä (gym lift) - 400 kg by juha hiltunen (gym lift at ~110kg bw) - 400 kg by mika hiltunen (equipped comp lift) - 400 kg by riku kiri (gym lift)

[@captainbiceps5209]

Great music choice, you're a man of taste 🫡

[@Dark6In6The6Eyes]

Strongman promoters shouldn't be allowed to list someone as representing a country they don't have citizenship for or maybbbeeee a permanent residency

[@thestrongmanhistorian]

Hard agree.

[@EmilBBechGrip]

Great video, Dimitar Savatinov's second deadlift should've been listed as the American record though right?

[@thestrongmanhistorian]

Yes. Guess watching the video 3 times wasn't enough to notice I messed up.

[@EmilBBechGrip]

@@thestrongmanhistorian I would've messed up too no doubt, just wanted to point it out if anyone was wondering where the American record was 😁

[@AdrianGL301]

I think Spanish record is 392,5 kg from David Mesa

[@jaket2274]

No U.S. record? I would believe it’s somewhere around the high 460’s by Brian?

[@thestrongmanhistorian]

The American record is held by Dimitar Savatinov 06:48 my dumbass just forgot to change the country as he is a bulgarian living in the US for 10+ years.

[@jaket2274]

@@thestrongmanhistorian gotcha, and I noticed you mentioned not going into elephant bar which is a shame cause that’s where Brian’s best are. It’s also arguably a harder lift but I understand the reason

[@thestrongmanhistorian]

I've heard both that it's easier and harder. I included Z's axle because not a single soul is going to argue an axle is easier.

[@jaket2274]

@@thestrongmanhistorian no it’s definitely not, and Z did it in the rain too

[@mustang8206]

Like he said Dimitar broke the American record at the World Strength Games

[@dantethunderstone2118]

Hooper was representing Canada when he pulled 475, savatinov was representing the USA when he pulled 467.5

[@thestrongmanhistorian]

Mitchell Hooper talking about the Australian deadlift record: Since I have been a part of the Australian scene, lived here for 4 years, training with Australians in Australian gyms with Australian coaches I don’t see why I shouldn’t qualify. To the contrary, I would be very uncomfortable with reaching out to the Canadian strongman federation asking them to recognize my records because, as it stands, I have given nothing to that community.

[@thestrongmanhistorian]

The Dimitar one was an oversight on my part, just automatically put Bulgaria on there.

[@gladgt6686]

380kg Romania by Laurentiu Mancu

[@enricomarxstrongman]

Comment for Mr. Algo Rithm

[@mustang8206]

Dimitar broke the AMERICAN record

[@reallymysterious4520]

Martina Bradley is the QUEEN OF SUMO

[@annatural7553]

nedzmin has 1000lbs dimitar savatinov has 1028-1031lbs

[@abdulmutee]

You have Makarov as a representer for Ukraine and Georgia. How is that possible, can someone represent two countries?

[@abdulmutee]

I just noticed Hooper is listed for Canada and Australia., and Makarov is listed for Russia too. I guess you can just represent more than one country

[@thestrongmanhistorian]

Don't forget Russia. I might be mistaken but he is ukrainian, lived in Georgia and now lives in Russia. It's wild west out there when it comes to representing countries. That's one of the reason why we need a governing body.

[@abdulmutee]

​@@thestrongmanhistorian Ok I get it now, thanks

[@eliheinrichs1185]

I think if something like Big Z's counts as a national record then JF on the elephant bar would probably be in that same category

[@thestrongmanhistorian]

Didn't want to open the Elephant bar can of worms. Z's was done on an inarguably harder set up so it's not ideal but I decided to go with it.

[@Nirsterkur]

In this same setup, standard height that is (9 inches from the floor) Zs PR is a self claimed 435 (959) which has no video proof. However this 440 (970) with the deficit and axle bar is Zs PR. It can be taken. Arnold's Elephant bar Raw DL should be taken as well since it's a more difficult lift than the Giants Live Standard bar equipped DL. 474.5 (1,046) - Hafthor 2019 472 (1,041) - Hafthor 2018 467.5 (1,031) - Jerry 2017 465.5 (1,026) - Hafthor 2020 465 (1,025) - Eddie 2016 463 (1,021) - Brian 2019 463 (1,021) - Brian 2016 463 (1,021) - JF 2018 are the 8 Heaviest lifts of the ASC Hummer Tyre Deadlift is 15 inches off the floor. Not 9 inches. Hence should not be taken. It's a different lift, along with the Silver Dollar Deadlift which is 18 inches off the floor.

[@neal520]

@@Nirsterkur theres also a video of Z pulling 430 comfortably on a regular deadlift setup in the gym

[@Aeklypsis]

if we're counting gym lifts why not add Asko Karu, he has some crazy pulls.

[@thestrongmanhistorian]

Only lifts done in a competition are on here
