[@wheelmanstan]

Brian, make your own dumbbell. The max dumbbell you can lift. Something that will become a thing of legend. The Brian Inch Millennium Dumbbell..or something. The sword in the stone..

[@paernoser871]

Brian, Derek, and Robert Make it happen

[@dc5131]

Should do the run with only one hand

[@liamrmorgans921]

Maybe grip events that involve wrist strength could be a good addition. Like the sledge hammer lowering to the face etc. Grip Alwadi has some cool grip videos to get ideas from

[@quierodesign3958]

Derek represented our community well!

[@KairosHC.]

Derek is one of your best collabs, he's such a fun dude to be around, hope you can bring him more to the vids.

[@youtubeconnollyfamily]

I have a strong feeling that won’t be the last time we see them two together especially if Brian really dedicate himself. Derek is one of the best trading partners for Brian

[@craigbeardcustomblades]

Agree!!

[@hockeyfreak896890]

@@youtubeconnollyfamily I know you meant to say training partner but now I've got a funny visual in my head of Derek and Brian trading stocks lmao

[@eryxviper]

Yeah I agree. At one point he said "Im dissapointing my fans" and I was sitting here thinking, nah its making you more.

[@PronatorTendon]

Couldn't agree more, he's very informative and clearly wants Brian to get the best start he can

[@AWDerek]

After watching this I am bewildered as to why I kept calling you by your entire name… often. 😅 Thank You for having me!

[@sarkyungsoo]

Brian casually attempting a world record like it’s a walk in the park 😂

[@jamesnm21]

He definitely took some moments to get ready. They edited the video there. He will get it on a fresh day.

[@brei2670]

If he trained that for a week or so, he would probably do it.

[@vinnythevagguy]

i love how he also casually makes 6.5ft+ tall, 300lbs+, buildings among men look "small"

It's crazy that everything he attempts is a potential world record..

Can't wait to see Devon and Brian get together for some videos. Two absolute legends of their sports.

[@quierodesign3958]

That is collaboration that needs to happen!

[@gotzvonunentberlichingen1452]

Rather later than sooner. Devon’s more philosophical than technical unlike Derek. Brian won’t be able to learn much from him this early on.

Derek is killing it lately with you Brian, and Devon, his channel is about to blow up, I feel he just needs to pull Cory West and win to get the respect he deserves and then propel him to next level in AW

[@coyedwards6184]

Beating Corey is a tall order, could happen though

[@ambiguousgh0243]

LOL I love Derek but I do not see him beating Cory

[@doesntmakeadent6033]

He ain't beating Cory.

[@youtubeconnollyfamily]

Yeah but if he loses then Cory gets that next level

[@warrenmichael918]

@@ambiguousgh0243 He wont have to beat Corey, just grip up and let Corey elbow foul out and lose! LOL He has a bad training habit of elbow fouling and it carries over into his matches

[@youtubeconnollyfamily]

Brian I really hope you get into arm wrestling. You already proved you’re the strongest man in the world so many times. If you train this for a few years probably like three you could challenge Levan.

[@work2live756]

Now THAT is a great idea. 👊

[@adrianvaldez9141]

Definitely I knew Levan possibly was going to be Devon Larratt but I was shocked at how easy he did it

[@monolithe00]

Nope, he cant challenge Levan (even after 3 years, Brian is really big but he doesnt have the hand/wrist genetic of Levan) , but he can challenge plenty other great AW, like Devon,MMT,Alex etc.... would be interresting vs khaled and Larry wheel

[@Anton-ih7hc]

@@monolithe00 😂😂

[@CanariasCanariass]

3 years for Levan? Keep dreaming. Brian has obviously huge potential but Levan wont be touched in the next 10 years probably(if he can keep his current strenght)

[@Siberius-]

Derek is just fun to watch. Brings extra entertainment to everything he does.

[@RobbyRutherford]

A rock climbing chalk bag is what you need Brian.

[@chazzthaspazz4475]

yess im a rock climber myself indoor though i got a american flag designed one lol

[@jenswikstrom7104]

this is 200 iq

[@eternalsentinel2089]

I can just see most strongmen picking up on this, given how many frame carries guys will have to grab chalk after the first drop.

[@James_Edward59]

His pockets on his shorts are probably bigger than a chalk bag, he should just put chalk in there.

[@chocolatito9735]

Armwrestlers have better grip than climbers ;) maybe fingers strength is win by climbers but for forearms and hand strength armwrestlers are better man

[@wolverine8719]

Brians strenght is unreal. Dont even train for it and nearly hits an new world record 😵‍💫

[@travis10ist]

Sure thing, let him try arm wrestling against elite arm wrestlers

[@bobmango8472]

It's great to see you get into the world of armwrestling Brian

[@hedduyou]

Just a heads up, in climbing, old chalk on holds makes them more slippery, so having those blobs all chalked up before you touch them actually makes them a bit slick. could probably have gotten that 150 up if it was clean and just your hand had chalk on it

[@barkpeterbark]

This collab has been great. You can tell they're really enjoying themselves. Looking forward to seeing more!

[@Hamashi]

Brian is simply a behemoth and is not afraid to make people grow

[@juanmal.1994]

Brian is just impressed someone can train like he does

Watched a couple of your vids together and you guys have great chemistry. You should do more of these. Great laugh.👌

[@alexthegordonhighlander1159]

Derek is loads of fun! This was great! Can’t wait to see Brian post a complete run of the blobs!

[@noahgiamei]

Dude, I love your guys' chemistry. Derek is my favorite guest to see. Positive and encouraging energy from both of you.

[@thesickness1986]

Brian you should make a leader board for these tests

Brian, you need to reach out to Magnus Midtbo. I’m sure he’d get you a Rungne bag for your chalk, though your hand may not fit in it

Very cool video, fellas! Brian, I could show you some technique adjustments that would allow you to get that 150 after everything else, my man. Couple little tweaks and you'll save a bunch of energy for that last big one! I'm sure it's just a matter of time until you complete it, regardless brotherrrrrrrrr! All the best, and again, great video.

Depends on the grip event. Mark isn’t anywhere close to Brian at crushing strength and picking up really thick handles. Mark’s grip endurance, however, is outta this world.

Love seeing Brian’s face light up like a little kid when Derek was able to lift the one inch dumbbell easily. He got to play with someone his size lmao

[@budthecyborg4575]

9:05 There's a trick to picking up the spindle that same people may not know about, if my hunch is correct, Brian is trying rotate the grip like lifting a hammer, when you have a flexible implement you'll get more grip if you can manipulate it to get the angle slightly off vertical.

[@zAngus]

For some reason it amuses me that Brian has a new play friend that’s been upscaled to be able to see eye to eye. Much better improvement than having to see the top of Eddie’s head all the time.

[@DannoTull]

Some times dried sweat and slightly dirty hands can have a better grip than chalk. In this case w/the steel machined cone grip, I think it would be the right situation to try it.
