Oh without a doubt,… I’ve certainly been to enough of these strongman contests to know how much respect the competitors get,… but at some point, when you basically can’t complete a single event, you have to wonder how many times you can run into a wall and get the same results. I tip my hat to the guy, but again, feel a little bad laughing at these horrible attempts.

He has some newer vids up with better form. 1140 total at 165, including a 520 deadlift. Not amazing but he’s come a long way.[/quote]
I’m gonna go on record as saying 520 @ 165lbs is a fantastic fucking pull IMHO.
Good for him.

Not that i condone of his form but I definitely agree. Pulling OVER 3x your bodyweight is pretty impressive no matter how ugly it is.
The guy is comical but I have to say at least he’s got heart. More hearth than what’s healthy for him even.

Good point. I don’t want to watch it, but I’m still impressed. Floor to lock out with that weight at 165 is fucking beast.
I dont want to be mean but the guy is probably a real idiot.
but you can’t say he doesnt have heart
He was once featured in a CT’s article on how not to deadlift. The video was taken down from the article because he got offended he was used as an example lol. Does anyone remember his creepy RMP? ha
Ouch, my back hurts just watching those videos
is he serious with that squat? are these vids a joke?

I hope (but don’t expect) that his spine and joints stay reasonably healthy.

It kind of annoys me that this guy doesn’t just pop his disks all over the place when deadlifting, yet other folks who do their best to train smart get injured THE ONE TIME they’re not paying 100% attention.
Really, what a waste of the rare “invincible spine” gene.
(I say we cut him open in the name of science lol)

Science fiction is only yet-to-be-science.
Apparently he competed in a strongman comp as well, thought I would share
