1015 Raw Deadlift - Benedikt Magnusson
crazy !
I think he beat his old record set at 1108lbs.
Found his 1100lbs tire deadlift vid but can't find 1108lbs. Insane impressive.Originally Posted by Talo
I never seen it myself. I was listening to iron radio and they were talking about it.
It's also great that he did it raw too. I never really understood why guys would put on a suit to deadlift I never found it added anything like it does to the bench or squat.
Maybe you're thinking of Andy Bolton's 1008? That was a WR at one point. Although I kinda think Bolton's deadlifts are bullshit and from the videos he seems really arrogant. He never seems to completely straighten out his knees or bring his hips all the way forward.
Case in point: See how Benny finishes his lifts and Bolton doesn't. Maybe I'm crazy but after I noticed it became really obvious on all the videos.

I think your right.
One thing with the tires is they are more comparable to a rack pull. No doubt it's a lot of weight, but the bar is just below his knee. I bet he could have done 1200 at this height.
That is some mind boggling weight! :s
