Last video of 2023 on the channel! thank you guys so much for all the love this year ❤ A lot of big videos coming in 2024! If you enjoyed this one please do smash the Like and Subscribe it would mean the world to me! 🙏 Also for those curious about how the sword works here's an explanation: The sword is locked into a carriage that is connected by cables to the weights. It has a 2-stage release system. When the sword is pulled up it is pulling the carriage and the weights attached. When the sword and carriage are pulled up about 6 inches it hits a lever that activates the release lever so that when the sword and carriage come back down they hit the release lever freeing the sword from the carriage and the weights. If the sword and carriage do not reach the top and hit the top lever it will not be released. We wanted to keep people safe from hitting themselves in the face when pulling the sword because it would come flying out if there wasn't some sort of stop when they were pulling. So this is why you see people pushing down and pulling the sword out easily after because they already did the work prior of pulling it 6 inches with the weight attached. Level 1 had 100lbs attached, level 2 had 150lbs attached, and level 3 had 200lbs attached. Hope this clears up how it works!

why when the 1st guy did the 20 and 100 it looks so easy like no weight at all. Bigger dudes struggled way more. I get that powerlifting vs hypertrophy stuff but the 1st guy look skinny and this isn't that. Was that just a test and the weight isnt connected yet?

Chandler's got that manifest energy, and the +200 Babe power boost. Congrats!

Nope all you have to do is Lift up Go Back Down To Release whatever is locking the sword in place then come back up.

Judging by the attempts, it isn't about force, it is more about technique and grip. I am guessing that the mechanical system inside the stone (box) wants you to just pull the sword enough to release some sort of latching point, in which you lower the sword to release the weights, then of course the sword is free to lift out. This as you see have three separate weights inside the three different boxes, hence for the average person, the third one would normally not be achievable, for a weight lifter, their thought process of just giving it max effort on the easiest one makes them look weak.

Man you really scooped up some amazing people there. Great video bro - keep being as awesome and inspiring as you are.

The last one got the good pull and technique. He took a deep breath and pulled it with his core. He kept the blade straight right until the end and kept on pulling and giving pressure until it hit the sweet spot

@carlosthetruedragon

Ай бұрын

There's no technique. It's just a lever that releases after a certain point that you then just let it lower back down to release the weights.. its basically like trying to push a parked car and then calling it "technique" after you put it in neutral and get it to move down an incline.

Yeah I can see now it’s technique. And Brandon even explained how to do it. This would be something I think I could do.

I think the mechanism is confusing for contestants

great video keep it up🙏

They should have followed directions, up, down, up and out.

Just read your pinned comment, and it is nice to see you thought about the participants when designing the release mechanism. Not everyone would do that.

Fire vid 🔥

most of those guys were probably not smart enough to figure out how to pull straight forward instead of pulling the sword towards them.

That second guy (who wanted to grab the blade) definitely got the second one. He just didnt know he had to press down to release. Same with the massive body builder. Sure body builders wont have the same strength as a power lifter, but there's no way that guy couldn't pull 200lb of resistance.

*The trick to getting the sword out is to turn your hands around like you are trying to do a barbell curl. In that position you have a lot more strength and leverage. To be successful at these challenges it's all about technique and not so much about strength.💯*

The trick is to pull, push it down, and pull again!

So creative and the last dude is strong as heck

Do you have a video out on the internal mechanism? Pretty curious! Insane mate

just added an explanation in my pinned comment of how it works!

You should've reminded them every time to push the sword down to release it once it's not coming up anymore. A lot of them actually got the 2nd one and just had to push it down to take it out.

As always this is very fun and entertaining 😂

Actually muscle does determine your strength when comparing to the same person. If someone gains 20lbs of muscle they will be stronger than their older version. But someone else with half the muscle can be stronger than them. It's all upto genetics

First,, pull the sword up... Then push it back in a little bit.. Then pull it up again... That's the trick... Apply it on the 20, 100 and 500 bucks and you gonna win.. Easy.

The big dude was Erik, that works out at Zoo Culture gym, he’s literally the biggest guy in the gym.

You should try a subscribers daily routine/diet

The mechanism was flawed. You pull the sword, then release the force and it comes out.

Bro for next video train like Jackie chan for 7 days

Last guy pushed it down and then pulled again. Not sure why he chose that technique, but it loosened it somehow, that's why he pulled it out so easily.

2:35 dude said it was just show muscles i respect him for that fir nkt being cocky like some body builders

Bloddy dwarves inside the hollowed blocks!!

the last guy figure out how the system works.

The key is you have to push it down after lift a liitle bit high enough

Physics helps as well... as they pull up they are also bending the sword towards their body which will jam the sword, not all about strength

The problem is if you dont have a long torso you run out of room to pull with any power. You should be able to stand above the sword and pull with full body extension.
