That’s actually insane! Wow.. those strength genes run real strong in that family

[@Fares_Gahlan]

There's a sleeper build, but then there's a hibernation build.

[@um8778]

Damn Bjorn's grip strength is insane

No joke, don't shake his hand or you'll pull back a bloody stump.

[@therealmulatto]

​@@holyhex6520😂😂😂

[@84dhanreddy]

Not to mention he’s almost 6’8 too. So his hands are obviously big which gives him more wrap around that dumbbell.

[@kevinmee3501]

Thor and his dad two genetic strength monsters, Viking power.

Need to add Hafthor's son Stormur and grandfather Reynir to the mix. 4 generations of Viking Power. 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

I was able to visit Iceland and stopped by his gym to hang with Thor and his dad. Amazing people. That kettle bell is no joke.

[@alexzegar]

How heavy?? Old man strength is a real thing!! 👍🏻👍🏻👊🏻👊🏻💪🏻💪🏻

[@UnbiasedTruth..]

80 kg

[@lukemckee2255]

Thor's dad could deffinately lift the millennium dumbell with abit of training that's insane

[@georgeford6056]

By the look of the thickness of the shaft, I would guess that it is like the Thomas Inch dumbbell, requiring both strength and a very long thumb/hand capable of putting that strength into action.

[@zentzu4003]

big hands are a real thing too

[@vincentqvarfordt6589]

Bet he can lift Mjölner too

[@spoobini]

The apple didnt fall far from the tree, but it probably left a crater when it did!

[@maticsimonic9673]

He was a champion arm wrestler if I remember correctly so it seems his hands stayed strong 😊

The other guy did manage to get it up but he sure didn't hold it like the old dude did and smile he couldn't wait to set it down. Old guy is a badass!!

[@guerrillaj]

Thats insane and lifted with a smile also!

[@jasonkalynowski416]

Old man strength and he's probably worked in the trades for most of his life 😊

[@AliCoxMusic]

Pretty sure he was a champion arm wrestler back in the day from what I’ve heard? Brutal arm strength. So impressive.

[@MrScrimbo1]

As a plasterer for 20 years I can beat guys 2-3 times my arm size at arm wrestling

[@mls8668]

All the strength and none of the bulk. Best way to be imo.

[@sirtoneyd3138]

Never judge a book by it's cover. Imagine running up on this old guy and fuck around and finding out.

[@Nurgles_Rot_]

He grabs your wrist and you're not getting away 🤣🤣

[@sirtoneyd3138]

No way! That's why I have a healthy respect for everyone cause you never know.Dont underestimate.

[@thelegionisnotamused8929]

.... Ok... Odin's changed since I last saw pictures. On a serious note, that's massively impressive. Grip strength is so important and I try to train it frequently.

[@maheshpithadia4578]

This is we call real body strength 💪

[@DannySmith-ez2yb]

Skinny hands with long fingers obviously with a really good grip

[@mathewstovell5167]

Exactly, and nobody else in these coments seems to get this very simple thing. The longer the hands, the more easy to lift a fat bar.

[@Kaynos]

Size of the hand also play a major role. When your like 6"10' like Thor or his father you have gigantic hands that allow you grab that extra large handle.

[@shannonsisk]

He did it without his thumb though….

[@Thor_Asgard_]

​@@shannonsiskstill a much deeper grip with bigger hand. Dont even try as a smaller person

[@rolfpettersen3099]

You can see Tom's grip was failing. Funfact, Björn has the best grip of all of them!

[@Rapped.In.Plastic]

Damn now that’s years and years of hard work not only from him but generations no doubt

[@PrimeV88]

That’s incredible…it’s in the genes

[@Cormac2023]

So, did the old man ever confess the secret to his super power?

[@twanparks4247]

Like farther like son,I bet his mom anit no joke neither 😂😂😂naw foe real I bet she is,is what's crazy 💯💯💯

[@martyrahbusch6366]

Respect to the dad . I've worked out my whole life and know the strength it takes to lift that weight . Damn man !!

[@odysseusnissan]

So impressive! They should do a challenge video with bodybuilders at a big gym against “the skinny old guy”.

[@mrebutuoy1979]

Thumb under with the fingers ❤

[@rodolfomedini9931]

Very impressive and world class strength. Luke couldn't pick it up and he held it longer than Tom so that's not his limit. Luke is a multiple time WSM finalist and Europe's strongest man two years ago. This is an exceptional feat of strength by itself but is even more exceptional when factoring his body composition and the fact he never competed in strength sports.

[@lukemckee2255]

Luke lifted it on his second attempt

[@kevbulaj7259]

Thors dad trains in the gym a lot - he's in a lot of videos training

[@matthewmontiel6582]

Wow this is so cool.. your dad is always awesome good job. And I love seeing the collaborations way to go guys

[@robintierney1792]

Have to say this version of thor is growing on me more and more

[@Kmk7268]

Strength can be deceptive

[@benjaminbenjamin8392]

Halftors father is so strong because he was the one that had to pull out bjorn when he was born. He actually pulled him straight out of a mountain.

[@princekhalid414]

Its not only the grip but its 80kg too 😳

[@RommeleRanch]

No, it must be more than 80 kg?

[@Giml1993]

Crazy strenght of Thors Dad. No worries luke did it on his second attempt ! But its crazy how Thors Dad did it so with ease

[@mangmiketeamtaiaha7256]

I know.... oldman dad strength 💪. Legendary 🎉💪💪

[@travelinghammer4698]

His grip is so strong because he has actually done physical LABOR in his long life. No gym will ever develop a body like being in a position where you must use your body daily to make your living. ( opinion of a 53 year old tradesman with 15 years working out in a gym, in my youth)

[@nelsonortas4796]

Dad is 7ft with big hands that can grip. And he is naturally strong

[@Gatsu_Gambino]

I know a guy named Andy that has his dads build. About 6'4 220 lbs and a monster. He works on oil rigs and I've never saw anyone do things Andy does. I feel like Andy could do this too. Just a pure athletic specimen.

[@elafzal5866]

How much he bench though

[@52dddful]

Y'all are HUGE👍

[@ricksmith7232]

Those genetics were passed onto his son… the worlds strongest man

[@sergioosuna7]

Very impressive!!!👌

[@rvanleersum]

Gotta remember, he's almost seven foot, so he's got proportionately big hands/long fingers which go a long way to addressing the grip issues posed by the thick bar. He may lack in size compared to these guys, but he also does train a lot with Thor. Impressive no matter how you look at it.

[@maticsimonic9673]

Didn’t Hafthor say he was an arm wrestler in his youth?

[@rvanleersum]

@@maticsimonic9673 Vaguely sounds familiar.

[@darrenleejones3516]

Grip strength is easier for people with long finger hence why mark felix does so well in grip strength, ime sure luke would pick it up with longer fingers

[@Mr.Sr.Jr.]

This argument would make more sense if not for the fact that the Stoltman have equally large hands

[@rvanleersum]

@@Mr.Sr.Jr. But it makes perfect sense. Younger Stoltman lifted more and held the 65kg? much, much longer than his older brother. Aslo, look at who, pound for pound, have the craziest grip strength: rock climbers. And they're some of the leanest people wyou'll encounter.

[@lbteeh871]

2 muscles are important for grip strength. Everything else helps though. I take it, this dude dad has a trade that requires a lot of that. Strong men push and pull to lift, grip strength just comes with. As to this dude dad, he’s probably been using certain muscles for a while. Idk XD

I would not believe it if I hadn't seen it. The path never taken...he gets to live, vicariously through his son, in the Strongman world though - that there is Thor's genes, inherited and proof that good genetics are a thing
