"THERE IS NO REASON TO BE ALIVE IF YOU CANT DO DEADLIFT!" - Most powerful statement ever

In static strength both Geoff Capes and Tom Magee were on next level than Jon Pall, Kazmaier was way above than Magee and Capes just that he was not allowed to compete in WSM after his hatrick. This is not a proper deadlift, and Jon Pall just knows the trick i.e sliding his legs which makes it even shorter and simpler. Imho it shouldn't have been allowed. But Jon Pall was given a green card for everthing back then, OD Wilson's victory was snatched and gifted to him for the shameless racist apartheid rants.

2:42 Best moment in strongman history

I just know he is a living legend. Always

2:36 That haunting scream though!

i think jon pall looked at his best in this video, so powerful, Icelandic Viking Power Indeed

Jon pall had flawless form and it looked like he lifted with his legs!? which is really hard to do but it minimizes preasure to the lower back. Truly he was The Viking, someone should write his Saga.

You can see clearly that Kazmaier didn't lock out his knees. Jón Páll was the winner. Don't forget that Kazmaier never won against Jón Páll, that says alot about Jón Páll's strenght!

But Jon Pall never faced a fully fit Kazmaier in his prime. I think Kazmaier would of won 83,84,85 and maybe even 86, had he actually been allowed to compete. Jon Pall only ever beat him when he was injured and past best, and that’s a fact.

JP was always my favorite though

"Don't be alive, if you can't do deadlift!"

Around 1983 Jon Pall deadlifted the European record of 370. This was when he was still young to the sport. If Jon Pall were to do a normal barbell deadlift in 1987 ( his prime ) I'm 100% sure he would've been a 400-410 kg man. If not breaking Kaz's world record. You can see this was his strongest year, JPS physique looks so much more "static strength" in this competition.

Mr537James doubt it. this isn't a deadlift here, he's sliding his thighs down the wood so the lift starts close to his hips while already leaning back. more like a quarter-squat than a deadlift. at '88 WSM Kaz easily beat Jon-Pall in a more proper deadlift from lower down beneath the knees and JPS felt the need to try and pull it sumo-style to get an edge

the only reason jon pall dont have 5 wsm wins like mariuz is in 1987 ther was no wsm contest. but he won the pure strength 87 contest. he crushed kaz and capes. he won 8 of 10 events

Very good point, strongman is all about enthusiasm and passion, I have no idea how anyone can comment such a sport and not seem enthusiastic.

Can imagine if Eddie hall did this in 1985 but 1200lbs at the time 1155lbs was the world record I was 4 in 1985 I'm 40 now what a classic strong man show

Bill Kazmaier didn't lock out for the last 3 attempts. Jon Pall definetely was the strongest, he locked out on all attempts.

i can see that both kazmaier and john pall got both diffrent lifting tecnique. They are both gr8 but i think that John Pall Sigmarsson is the greatest strongman in the history.

2:40 the very beginning of a great one liner

when he was 33, he found out he couldn't do deadlifts anymore

King

LOL Sigmarsson couldn't resist taunting Kazmaier lifting even more after his world record

do you notice that jon pall is really squatting the weight

does any body have the rest of this event or know where i can get it?

1153 lbs😳 that's incredibe😯

Both were great strongman . Somedays Kaz was the strongest other days Jon Pall was the strongest.

Kaz got screwed here. He definitely did his last like all there others. When I think back about it, wtf was this competition, seriously.

what a man

Kazmaier has made a 40+ yrs Career out of being 2nd-Place to Vikings!

Jon Paul slides his legs under the bar greatly increasing his ability to lift it. Kaz was not doing that and I believe if he had figured that out he would have went a lot higher in weight

Da goat has the breath to talk while doing 1005lbs😶

of course the americans are salty because they can't accept the fact that Jón Páll Sigmarsson is the strongest man who ever lived

He would have been even stronger today since products are always getting better

Crazy to compare these numbers to the numbers they are pulling today i wonder whats the limit

haha gal fyr

Jon Pall at 130 kg bodyweight just managed to get his bodyweight + 400 kg more off the ground, while you today got 180 kg powerlifters & strongmen who can't even get 500 kg to move off the floor.

@LiamBirchall agree with you there srongly. if he wouldn't have died he would have won the title maaany many times

@LiamBirchall actually mariusz in one of the few, who will give thise guys a propper fight till the end, and he has won it more times, so dont be so sure about it,

wheels at hunty castle scotland .

@LiamBirchall I agree. I think they both would. They are definitely stronger from the stationary position. Mariusz has speed, but in pure strength, not close

@@AsadAli-jc5tg Dude shut up, you don't know a shit about strongman. You're just some ignorant hating fool. OBVIOUSLY Its not an actual 523 kg deadlift you moron, look at the year. If people cant even deadlift that today you think they could 33 years ago? most strongmen and powerlifters cant even get 500kg to move off the floor so this is VERY impressive even in todays top standards. Jon Pall also weighted about 130kg here while you got 180 kg dudes today who cant even get that weight a cm off the floor.

I will agree with you on that one, I will also say though that Kazmier is the best strongman announcer ever, he really gets into the competition and makes it that much more interesting to watch, Why can't IFSA have him instead of boring Jamie Reeves?

They screwed Kaz on that 1077lbs he had it in the air and locked for almost 5 seconds, he even asked the ref "What do you want mate?" he actually lifted the 1077 better than Jon Pall did

thats why people tend to do the same weight in squat and deadlift....

What does Jon Pall say at 5:49? Friggen commentator is talking over him.

In the clip from 1987, that is what they called a "Health Lift" in the 19th century, a short-range, bent-knee deadlift, which was coinsidered a good way to build overall strength and conditioning to improve one's "figure, strength, and health".

JPS is build like a mac truck🚛

Spotbilt Turf Shoes,

look my point is back then that was one of the greatest weights lifted in the world! so don't hate. show respect to the men who were brave enough to take on a challenge that made men 5 times stronger than you or me cringe. okay. my point is don't hate. respect the Iron warriors who came before you. I know I do.

Oh my god, I think he could go farther...

iceland no doubt

Rack pulls above the knee

I consider this event as one of WSM. There was no WSM -87 and I belive that if kazmaier nor capes could not beat Jón, then nobody could not. "There can be only one world strongest man"

Yeah Kaz was right, you can see Jon clearly get his knees under the bar, wasn't a real deadlift and made it way easier, whereas Kaz doesn't do that at all. This event was stupid, and they should've done a normal deadlift with a regular bar, Jon was cheating this event, as I doubt that would fly today.

Who the hell dared give me a thumb down don't you know products get better by the year the protein and anything else that these guys took then was a bit worst than today's

it's clearly not a deadlift world record the bar is miles too high. useless commentator.
