For the one who has already, and those that will in the future, Jon Pall Sigmarsson deadlifted 815lbs in a meet and 881lbs in a gym. Like EB said, focus on the quote, not the lift. He was also 4x World's Strongest Man, so say what you want, he's stronger than you. R.I.P.

His best deadlift was 427,5kg (942 lbs) in gym with straps... 525kg from 18 inches (83 WSM) Truly amazing! RIP

It was not a joke, he died in the gym.

Lol.. like he's revving the engine...

At that same event, he increased the weight to 1,153 and successfully locked it. This is nearly 150 lbs less. That is the power of Sigmarsson!

What a quote, true viking,and he died lifting heavy heavy weights true power, he died doing the thing he loved, THERE'S NO REASON TO BE ALIVE IF YOU CANT DO DEADLIFT 💥

We need guys like Jon Pall. Such a a great character. Nowadays strongmen athletes are powerhouses but the fun is gone.

What he is really doing is a rack pull above the knee ROM, which Alpha Destiny was doing back then and caused a ruckus in the yt fitness scene

I always thought he said "don't be alive if you can't do deadlift".

They hated him …they doubt him..they ignore him…and he beat them all !! still his voice …icelandic powerrrrrr !!!!

Watched this a couple times this year.

Facts of life. RIP brother ✊🏿

The Geoff Capes vs Jon Pall Sigmarsson battles were truly amazing. Such fierce rivals yet such tremendous respect for one another. Love me some vintage WSM.

My hero forever!!! Hé is now in walhalla challenging thor's strenght!!! Rip icelandic viking warrior..

Loved this

Valhalla awaits!

Let’s gooooo. Literally one of the only people in this sport that got to die doing the thing they love the most. If i could choose anyway to die it would be pulling 800+ lbs.

Everyone can deadlift except the ill and handicapped .. maybe his quote is just referring to how he feels about his own life.. since he lives for it.. same as others that lose their will if they are incapable of doing their passion whether its dancing or playing music etc

Please bear with me if I'm wrong, but when somebody says stuff like that on the Internet's there's a high chance he doesn't even lift. Try doing 20 reps on reasonably heavy deads, I guarantee you'll be out of breath once you're done.

muzza913 he actually died from a torn aorta. no drug can cause that, it can make it more likely to happen when the genetic defect is there, but not cause it.

I still think the quote is "There is no reason NOT to be alive if you can do deadlift"... I think, not sure but If you read it that way then it doesn't mean that there is no other reason to be alive, he simply means that there is no reason not to stay alive if you can do deadlift.. where as if you turn it around like the title, he's basically saying no reason to live if you can't do a deadlift which i highly doubt he would utter even though the Icelandic subtitle is saying this, they have been wrong more then once..

@67steinip

I just I have a hard time believing he would say it, I listened to it about 100 times and I just I can't hear the first part because of all the cheering.. I just hear him when he utters "NOT to be alive" or what word could come instead of NOT there because he yells that part, then he is barely holding it up when he finishes the sentence... that's why my thinking goes to ".....NOT to be alive if you can do deadlift" But i wasn't there, I know he doesn't mean bad by it but if he said actually that there is no reason to be alive if you can't do deadlift that would be quite harsh..
