Thor opened at close to that and finished with world records, all over 1000lbs. Thor was a monster deadlifter and untouchable. But you're right, the Eddies, Thors and Shaws were all 1000lb lifters, it's definitely surprising to see sub 1000lb lifts winning.

Love Loz And Pritchett.

Lots of naysayers in the comments regarding hitching. 1.) This is strongman. As Loz said, A to B is the name of the game. 2.) Break 800+ off the ground or better yet, qualify for this competition, and maybe then someone will care.

To put things in perspective, Thor smoked 1046 pounds as if it was nothing, and then proceeded to lift 1105 pounds half way. The current lineup can not go beyond 1000 pounds, let alone 990 pounds. Keep in mind that Brian Shaw did not manage 1049 pounds. This shows just how much of a monster Thor was at his peak.

Also, the max deadlift isn't his strong suit, so it's another mental block with that. I wish he would just ramp up his recovery and deadlift training and just screw trying to stay around 150 kg. He needs to get used to about 160 kg. He won't peak his deadlift unless his BW and training are honed in. I don't think he has the smartest programming around him.

Ok?

My math on these bar weights doesn't add up and it bothers me. 881 pound total (Rob Kearney's first attempt) - 65 pound bar - 720 for 8 plates on each side - 35 pounds from a big white (10), small blue (5), and small green (2.5) on each side = 61 pounds worth of clips? Does this bar really have 30.5 pounds worth of locking mechanisms on each side, or is there another plate I can't see? Edit: Luke Stoltman's 886 had 9 plates for 810 which would indicate 5.5 pounds of clips on each side, so there must be 25 pounds per side hiding somewhere I can't see on the 881 pound lift.

The frick is on Kearnys face? 😂

Get a sore back just by watching this.😂

The deadlift just refers to picking up a dead weight off the floor with no momentum. Doesn't matter how it gets from A to B in Strongman. This isn't powerlifting. Just like push pressing, split jerk, clean and press etc. are allowed in the log lift. No one complains about lapping an Atlas Stone instead of one motioning it.

Amazing feet of weights to lift. However Brian Shaw Smashed the World Record Deadlift 9 times. 1126 pds. And Thor hasn't come close to that boys.
