2018 Arnold Strongman Classic | Rogue Elephant Bar Deadlift - Full Live Stream Event 4

Jerry Pritchett set a seemingly unmatchable record on the Rogue Elephant Bar Deadlift in 2017 with 1031 pounds.
Today, March 3, 2018, Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson smashed that record by successfully pulling 1041 pounds on the same bar giving him a three and half point lead going into the final event of the 2018 Arnold Strongman Classic.
*correction: standard straps are allowed.

When Brian Shaw can't lift something, you know that shit is HEAVY.

I tink it's not that it was heavy for Shaw but there's sometings that competitors will be better at than some Thor's good at deadlier Brian is good at plane pull truck pull and atlas stones

so you lift 1048lbs just to be given 5,000 usd??!!!! that is not fair, that is not even equivalent to the food and supplements that this guys take.

[@RiverLewis]

5,000 is a crappy prize for a world record that risks your life. Cough up Arnold, you've got more dough than that.

[@dremora10]

That is for deadlift alone, Thor won the Arnold Classic Strongman and took home $72,000 with Brain Shaw 2nd taking home $22,000.

[@ihatelols]

Yup, and footballers who do no way near the amount of work get hundreds of times more money. Definetly not fair.

[@crackythepirate416]

Dom Shefwood yeah hafthor and Brian both weigh about 100lbs heavier than everyone else so an 800lb deadlift is the equivalent of someone who is 150lns lifting 300lbs so yeah it makes sense they can lift so much more.

[@ruin3r]

the difference maker is guys like Shaw and Hafthor are genetic giants where as the other guys are more normal sized human beings just with a lot of muscle.

For the people saying 500kg is the record. That deadlift was done with the help of a deadlift suit. Eddie hall last competition in Arnold pulled 464 with very high difficulty. Also this is the record for rogue elephant.

[@MrChaosTheory09]

First the 500kg was done at the deadlift championships on a standard bar yes so its a different record, and unless you think a suit adds 40kg not sure what your point is. Next Hall had just pulled 460kg before....not sure about you, but i don't usual pull my max and then pull it again on the same day.

1:00 Straps not allowed? Then why is everyone still using them?

[@pepparmostheelder]

Haha da fuck. The editors for the show must have been poorly informed. I've never seen a deadlift contest in strongman where they havent been used straps. Hell its one of the reasons why some powerlifters out right refuse to give any credit to strongman deadlifts. Despite the fact that some strongman doesnt even use a belt instead. Only deadlift like excersise I've seen them do without straps were like a car behind the back DL. And that is only because the grips are "neutral" (like a trap bar). Since the biggest reason for the straps in strongman is so they dont have to use a mixed or thumb grip while (mixed risks tearing a bicep)

[@ryankueter8396]

Jorrit van Leiden 8 figure straps aren’t allowed the editors are not misinformed regular straps are allowed

[@tnxn20]

[@noobybadgerFTW]

It said straps of any kind so... Makes the record less impressive. A world record for a bar that's longer? Why....?

[@superchelseafctw]

Just to create more hype at the event. The longer bar makes it easier to break from the floor but makes the barbell whip a lot more near the top of the lift.

Amazing how with this kind of weight having a narrow stance/grip is a huge advantage. More bar bend and less ROM.

[@jonathanread9732]

Sorta. His best deadlift is about 920 pounds in the gym and high 800s in competition. So I guess he could hang with some of these guys, but he would be near the bottom of the pack. The top guys are lifting 1000 pounds plus as you can see :)

[@thispersonsdad7247]

In the one event, if he didn't do any of the events before

[@kickenwing30]

Pete would have to do all of these events they did the days prior first, then try to deadlift 920lbs. The conditioning strongmen have is absolutely insane, to be able to show up sore and beaten up and still pull over 1000lbs.

[@jackb5338]

Honor Foss yeah but it’s an elephant bar, kinda different then what Pete used to lift, which I’m sure is a Texas power bar, which adds 50-100lbs depending on how strong you are. Pete maybe would have placed 5th at this event, which is still insane given his bodyweight, but his leverages (world class) probably don’t carry over to other non static lifting events I may be wrong about what Pete used to lift, but even so, this is after 3 other events one after the other with no resting days, Pete would probably lose horribly at the other events.

I love how it says in the rules ''straps of any kind are not allowed'' ; first guy comes in with straps

[@Makukeisari]

what is the music when brian goes for his last try?

[@kawilifezx10r23]

I feel brian has atleat 1 good run left in him. Eddie and thor are younger and will take over once brian leaves but as long as brian competes he is a threat. Thor seems hungrier than evernwith a point to prove.

most crap lift i have ever seen

[@user-ux6wj5zc1h]

And how do you want? For 5 months, raise your three weights while working at work and almost without eating food! I would like to look at your ascent when you pull 900

[@nolaw4365]

900?? what are u smoking? ok u strong but your lift looks shit! why not get good with little lower weight and a good lift, instead of a shit lift with heavyer weights? do u think u the only one working a job and going to the gym tired after a long day?

[@fouseyyy]

Looking forward 2019 come back brian reign the throne again!
