Eh? They aren’t salty. You’re probably thinking of salted eggs lol.

Didn’t realize Thor already pulled 501kg…i dunno but I just felt that it wasn’t as glorious as Hall’s.
Ernst Schmied climbing Everest wasn’t quite as momentous as Hillary doing it, either.
It’s cool that the deadlift record is going to go up but Eddie’s huge jump to a major milestone is always going to be pretty special

This is what makes Hall’s even more hilarious. He talks about how it nearly killed him and all his other self promotion bravado while Thor just totally “no sells” it.
Good point. Plus the fact that he still bragged about it for 3 years after the fact.
Hmm… if Hall had not lifted 500kg, do you think Thor would even attempt it? Probably just a matter of time eventually
The money was the incentive. Always has been. Back when you made more money with reps vs singles, dudes were amazing at pulling reps.

Also, I confess that the next time someone complains that they can’t deadlift because they are tall, I am going to link that video and ask how much over 6’9 they are.

Can’t be too hard on him for that one. It was 500kg and there are guys bragging about lifts from 20 years ago with dubious credibility

Yep. I’m actually (sort of) a fan of his lol.
I am apparently addicted to Asian cooking videos and watched an old dude make these. I didn’t know what they were called at first. Very interesting. I would definitely try one though.

This whole thing with Halfthor and the deadlift is fake news.
I mean, he used freakin straps! WTF!?!

And? It’s not Powerlifting.
I think you missed the facetious tone of @SkyzykS’s post

If I were that strong, I’d have my great grandkids brag about it

The thread is flame free so trying to squeeze out some free entertainment would have been moot

You just never know, I’m used to the rabid flamers attacking everything. Plus, I seem to be in a mood today.

Just for future reference, I’m a bit of a jagoff.
