I think his last try was 426kg. 12 years ago, that was incredible strong. Now there are many people who can lift that number. Crazy

Casual. 426 raw are still a lot no straps, and benni is still the goat at raw deadlift no straps with 461 WR, go somewhere else.

I remember when this dropped in 2005, all powerlifters was like?! I remember when it said 390kg WARMUP, had to read it 5 times or so, wtf.

When Bruce Banner gets angry, he becomes The Hulk. When The Hulk gets angry, he becomes Benedikt Magnusson

This is the most epic deadlift video of all time

That approach.

And he placed it down like you would a coffee mug, he could have been the first raw 500kg deadlift

lmao...i love how he knocks the chalk over

This is so scary. Imagine that beast charging at you with that primal rage.

i love how he turns into the hulk after the sniff

Best deadlifter ever plus I like he looks like he about to kick that weight through a goal post

What an amazing video that still attracts viewers to this day Both you and Beni are legends

His warmup deadlift is within a 50kg of my total. Sad.

@AwryToast Ammonia. It's a small ampoule filled with ammonia and wrapped in paper, you crush it between your fingers and inhale in through your nose. It get you jacked up before you lift heavy weights. Powerlifters do it all the time.

This and the Scott Mendelson 715 raw deadlift vids are the best powerlifting ones on YT.

I think he's faster than Usain Bolt from his warm up to rod.

i absolutely love the way he gets psyched up for the lifts lmao its fantastic

great clip. they are both strong guys but in very different sports. lots of respect to both.

what a character!!! love the way he gets revved up and the chalk flies everywhere!! man i cant even imagine what it would feel like on your body to lift over 400kg...

0:17 is he zapping the bar with a magic spell? lol

@MrCarlWeber Thank you, finally someone that understands. PS, Benni just recently set a new world record raw deadlift of 974 lbs.

Even though this vid is ancient and benni has since smashed this pull its still by far the most entertaining DL vid in the world!!

@Birdpoofool Powerlifting is more about brute force. Yes, the deadlift is a technical lift compared to a bicep curl, but pales in comparison to a snatch/CnJ. So yeah, they can psych up all the way without worrying about channeling the energy the wrong way, unlike oly lifts.

if people dont realize, to pump yourself up like that, puts out adrenaline in your body, and when you have those adrenalines pumping out, you lifting perhaps over what you can do normaly. He is so strong i cant believe , i really enjoy this, he is pumping himself up to not drop this weight, he is so commited!

@illirond people always forget to mention that ronnie was cutting weight at the time of that lift. that wasn't him at his strongest.

Just fucking brilliant!!

The real deadlift king

I like this guy, eh lifts many hard weights and doesnt afraid of anything

Best deadlifter of all time

@ilovetrash91 No he pulled an ammonia capsule out from behind his ear, he popped it then inhaled the scent.

The GOAT

I like his little pump up ritual, before he does the lift.

@snozzcumbers stan efferding is strong as hell. his totals actually higher than kks

incredible speed on that 390

lmfao this guy is so fun to watch. The way he phycs himself out before the left. Is he smelling hand chalk? or ammonia

@AmusingYeti agreed. the most annoying thing to me is, that people keep comparing bodybuilders with powerlifter

what the name of the song used in this video ?? awsome Performance

Footage of the 1977 World Powerlifting Chapionships is pretty awesome.

@Birdpoofool its pure psyching up. olympic lifters might not do the full dance like magnus does here, but they do the same, you always see the trainers slap them and shout at them to get the peak adrenaline and focus up. Ever seen Coleman lift, hes shouting all over the place to get pumped

I can't stop watching this video!!!!!! Benni is THE MAN!

@beefmelon wow, varsity huh? You got some real credentials there. I must say, I'm almost impressed.

I love this guy, because he is the proof : you don't need to be a midget to be good at the deadlift. man, this machine is 190 cm high and is the strongest on the planet !!

@Evexified

5 ай бұрын

he's actually 183cm

well hes the best deadlifter on the planet earth..so i think he earns himself the right..and also he does that not to show off but to physch himself up..to each his own

I can only dream to be this cool

@thisismyytname Yeah thats not recognized as a world record outside of the arnold classic. I think the 974 is much much more impressive, especially when you see the video of the 1100. The 1100 is essentially a knee height rack pull

that looks like so much fun

he's the best dead lifter in the world by far and yes this is the best lifting video on the internet...by far

@AmusingYeti regardless his accomplishments and prelift rituals - touching the bar by leg or stepping over it is considered as offence among athletes all over the world - if you ever trained, you should have known it. Of course in Iceland, the may have different habbits on opinion. I`m just speaking on the wide-known fact

@lbz91 Ronnie was a couple weeks out from the olympia.

Gotta love that guy in the back at 0:46 screaming and jumping!

@SR4LosersIsMYBITCH Song is by Prodigy - voodoo people

21 and this guys is a fuckin tank? shit... i wanna train with this beast man.

mag has such a playful personality..amazing that he can jump at his size

thsi is so amaizing. he acts like a viking warrior just before a fight

Channeling the power of grayskull 0:39

I admire strongfats' superhuman strengths, but I sure as hell hope that I never end up looking like that (I probably don't even have the perseverance to get anywhere close to that regardless).

His name escapes me but does anyone remember that bodybuilder who entered WSM in the early 90's? he got blown away from the first whistle and had the stamina of a lazy Sloth.

Wish I had his form, thumbs up.

I will never shake that mans hand... Dat grip!

Never heard of this before. What country are you from?

god, he is so terrifying when he's getting psyched.

0:32 is awesome

@Gohanseta he did start off training like a powerlifter though

Why would one exclude the other?

Beast !

Greatest deadlifted ever no straps bs

I watch this clip over and over he is so funny

Well now let's take a look at the scenery. Benedict is very strong and never uses straps. Bolton uses straps sometimes to train the back and forget the grip until later in training. Bolton is the ONLY man to pull 1000 pounds. Who's the better deadlifter?

There's no point to being strong. It's an end in itself. Pumping iron is its own reward.

Well, in most gyms, the coke is sold in the men's toilets. Other pharmaceuticals as well.

Eddie is a beast. But when it comes to Benni. He is the real one.

That man can jump. Holy crap .

@Ogasso thanks

Thanks for the reply :D

Anyone know what music is playing in the background?!

@GrappleandStrike that was right after mr olympia. cutting all that weight drains you badly. yes bene's stronger than ronnie, but i'm a fan of both and clearly both are strong strong guys.

Banana and a cloud LOL that cracked me up

lol, the way he "rages" after sniffing that thing is epic

@Sixup even then i wouldn't get this guy mad, i doubt even brock lesnar could deadlift 1100 lb, and they're around the same weight i imagine, plus it's always the guys that don't fight that end up winning in a street fight, martial arts got nothing on adrenaline-fueled rage mixed with the power of one of the world's strongest men.

lol spilled the chalk, he'd get in trouble in prison, but then he'd get vengeance.

I'm going to make it a ritual to watch this on deadlift day.

Lol, this guy is the definition of intensity.

Pretty respectable vertical at 0:57...!

Saw in a documentary that Russian olympic athletes respect the bar/weights as in they wouldn't even step/walk over it. Guess he means it as a offence like that.

@AwryToast Ive heard its Ammonia tablets......weird I know

What does he sniff? i know most of the powerlifters do this and i kinda know how it works, but i dont know what it is :D

had a little giggle at 'warmup - 390kg'

Re. the plateful of cocaine he knocked over. Is it legal to snort that stuff before a lift?

Even by modern standards that's crazy, it went so fast

this guy should fight bears, I'd pay to see that.

@bretchet23 he said in a interview that he could do 850 for a max rep

@iswatchi when ur that strong u can spill the chalk all over and not care then after that snort some before the deadlift

what song is this?

@lbz91 ronnie repped 800 right after mr olympia. i'm sure with some prep he could do 900+ at least once. obv bene is stronger but ronnie's nothing to laugh at. he's got the world record for leg press.

@yahnniemeng Aye, I wouldn't doubt it.

Anyone else think of a big baby when he's psyching up?

@GuitarSlinger151 and what's your last name?

I'd still say just getting to the WSM is quite noteworthy.

It's a shame these guys don't get the same world wide recognition as other athletes, maybe it's because of the drug use etc. But fuck that, who the hell is gonna be impressed by some skinny natural guy who will probably deadlift 200kg at most? Drugs take this sport to a new level and actually makes it exciting to watch.
