Carl Yngvar Christensen further increases his world record squat - now 490 kg at the 2014 IPF World Open Men’s Championships in Aurora, USA.
Insane lift. Still waiting for people to spread hate
I love the screen shot with him at the bottom. The two guys on either side behind all the weight are my two lifting buddies Dan and Jake. After seeing him hit 482.5 kg, was hoping he would go to 500. Next time.

Why would anyone hate this? It’s an awesome accomplishment, I don’t see anything wrong here. Am I missing something?
Am I looking at a bear or a man?

I’m sorry for putting it straight forward like that. It’s just that last time a video of CYC was posted here, when he squatted 485kg(1070lbs), the thread was full of drug accusations.

Ahhhh yes I remember that thread!
I wouldn’t hold it against him whether he’s used drugs or not, and I wouldn’t pretend to know definitively whether he has or hasn’t. Only he knows that. The bottom line is that strong is strong, no matter how you get there.

Here we go again…
Damn that looked so easy. He could have gone for more but he’s building up the suspense to hit 495 and then 500 kg.

The wraps add 400 lbs and the roids at 380 lbs so he’s really only a 400 lb squatter. Not bad for a big guy.

I feel like you misunderstood what I said. That was not an accusation.
Mother of squat!
Power of the almighty Norsemen!
He also won best lifter award because of his wilks, which is not very common for a SHW.
