Sumo is not deadlift. For me, using those belts makes it an assisted lift. There are no 1000 deadlifts until it is done with stiff bars and without any assistance like a belt or knee sleeves. Also, low bar squats are not squats.

21:26 Just want to point out Eddie's grip on the bar is solid as the bar leaves the floor. The Figure 8 helps massively in just eliminating the possibility of accidentally dropping the bar, but the hardest part of the lift was all done the same whether it was straps or figure 8s.

I started deadlifting in a similar fashion to what Eddie Hall did during that record, and I have to say that as a guy with a big belly, I find it more comfortable to start the heavy phase of the lift. I always struggled to get proper positioning before, and after this, its quite interesting how much more comfortable I feel it is. Great video!

This was a great video! Maybe they can just put sumo deadlift as its own portion of powerlifting or something. Its very clearly not comparable to conventional. But then again some people have crazy long arms for conventional deadlift. And there's people with shorter arms benching bigger weight. IDK. Also I've recently seen some people in strongman contests just letting the weight totally hang from the figure eight straps and not even trying to make it look like they are holding it.

Those bendy bars are like bench shirts, though not quite as extreme. Brian Shaw is such a beast. And being that he's so tall, it's even a more amazing feat. Not only does he have to lift the weight higher, he has less leverage to do it than someone shorter.

I was always surprised that they do not use the reverse grip. When I was competing I used the Sumo stance with the left hand under and right hand over. No one used straps back then though and we could not drop the bar.

Hooper didnt bump any weight up. Giants live set the weight jumps themselves and moved the weight to 454kg because it would be a new PB for guys who hit 453 the year before.

They measure "wilks" and relative strength but they, for some reason, don't measure total work output (Force x distance). To explain this, Hafthor when he lifted 501 kg with his frame, executed a much more impressive rom than Jamal (not trying to throw shade at him though). So greater distance the weight travels, greater total work output, greater relative strength. But if you ask a "powerlifter", Jamal is relatively stronger based on some simplistic bodyweight/weight ratio. Powerlifting is ruled by small frames and you can tell by just applying simple logic. Like why is a 400 lbs squat performed by some short femur guy more impressive than that very same weight moving 1.5x the rom performed by a 7 ft nba player with long femurs ? I just can't get it. At the end of the day, when we transfer strength to real world tasks, hafthor is the guy that will pick up a heavy bag and get it up to a 4 ft table, and the nba player I mentioned is the one who will jump like an ostrich and dunk. I don't know if I explained myself correctly, but to sum it up, powerlifting "relative strength" ratios and standards are utter BULLSHIT.

"This looks like Optimus Prime's mouth" LMFAO ⚰️⚰️⚰️
