@NTA and he didn't even wrap his thumbs around the bar ffs - which is insane as gripping hard is a great trigger for the body to do work son!! Just using his fingers and the straps on a weight like that. Faaaark.
He was wearing the same gear as Eddie Hall - a suit and 8 loop strap thingies. Definitely will see him lift more at the next WSM comps - crazy to think he just picked up half a ton... even if he does weigh about 170kg himself!
Rich still has him beat.....
Richard Hawthorne is pound-for-pound the Strongest Man in the World
At 5'3.5" and tipping the scales at 130 pounds, you wouldn't believe that 29-year-old Richard Hawthorne of St. Martin is a world-class powerlifter. After competing in a world powerlifting meet in August, Hawthorne won the title of "strongest man in the world."
The mountain would need to deadlift about 765kg to break even there.......
That's the same halfwitted argument as an ant is stronger than an elephant.
Well no, not at all cos they're both humans.
Yes because they both have to conform to the cube-square law. Rich is clearly incredibly strong. The Mountain is stronger.

Of course he is, he just broke a record but that's not to take away from the fact a tiny guy performed a massive deadlift by any standards. Which some might argue is the more impressive feat.

@Machpants oh I think I do now...look at the top under his name.
Yeah I saw that, I just thought it was his tagline (maybe for what he's training for), I don't know what the app is so thought that was part of his username. And yeah that is only 7km ish, and i take it it is supposed to be cheating Ozzie cricketer?

I suppose for you getting out of bed to try and run is a "deadlift", shot bro, keep hustling.

21km. Half marathon averaging 4:33/km
I get that he's a pro sportsman but that is still a pretty decent time for a guy who isn't a long distance runner.

I think that's just proof that cricketers are, on the whole, pretty decent athletes these days.
The potential provided she isn't too batshit crazy Mrs MN5 runs a couple of times a week and did it in 1.50 odd which puts her in the top bracket for women 40+, some of this ( ie not doing better ) she puts down to being short of limb compared to most blokes, can confirm she is 5 foot 3 or so which I guess plays a part over longer distances.
I can't see Warnie or Gatting getting remotely close to those sort of times.

Captain Darch showing he's not made of starch
Women's Institute members dress as pirates for meeting unaware speaker Colin Darch was Somali pirates hostage - The Mirror
They thought Colin Darch was going to regale them with tales of buccaneers such as Blackbeard and Captain Kidd

Well, he can fuck off then.
I wonder if he runs marathons normally because he doesn't fucking bat normally.

True but Muhammad Ali didn't box normally either. He went ok.
