Amazing, Novikov proves that size isn’t everything. The smallest man in the finals, 6’1 and barely 300 pounds smashes a world record that stood for 30 years. A true inspiration
I mean size in deadlift favlours the smaller competitor. Deadlifts aren't relative to height (e.g the weight is always 25cm off the floor in a statting position, not like 1/8th of the competitors height). The smaller you are, the more of a "rack pull" you do.
@@thanos9536 that’s bc Thor is stronger than Eddie and that’s it. Still when you’re short the bar is on a higher position relatively to your body, which means that less rom is required
@@M.J.D.R this argument is so old and so dumb. Taller people are always the strongest in the world and lift the most weight. If there was a weight cap, shorter people are stronger, because they have higher relative strength, but for absolute strength it’s always the tall people who win. Why is it virtually everyone who deadlifted over 900 pounds is tall?

If people have a problem with the grip,maybe they are the problem. The guy got it up, and the people who are claiming he had a bad grip prob can't even 18 inch a 200 pound deadlift lol. He did phenomenal in this lift!
Eddie Hall explained why Novikov did so well in this , because he’s not the best at standard deadlifting, compared to a lot of the guys in that lineup. He said it was because of his long arm length and height, giving him an advantage.They stood side by side and his arms are slightly longer than Eddies, which Eddie was surprised at! But that doesn’t discount the fact he still had to be hugely strong to pull that weight.
Filip Raos Long hands🤣 My friend i never said anything about his hands! If you think about it...the longer your arms the shorter the range of motion you have to travel to stand up straight with the weight..Plus Novikov is not so tall, in strongman terms so not so far to travel.I think Eddie meant that his height to arm length ratio is what suited him so well in this event, as Caron, Shaw and Tom can deadlift more than him in a standard deadlift and Jerry Pritchett massively out deadlifts him in the standard deadlift. Eddie did an interview with him and he explains it better than me and when you see visually, what he’s talking about , its easier to understand.
Oleksii Novikov not only proves that weight and size matter in body power. It is determination that's resulting the answer we wanted. A great inspiration for little man.
Brian never was a top top deadlifter, he’s more of an all around type of strongman athlete, which is good. But Oleksii just destroyed everyone here despite being the smallest.
Okay, I suppose I should change my comment. Brian was one of the best deadlifted for awhile, deadlifting 1,000+lbs every single competition. However, lately over the past years like since 2017/18, he’s really gone down a lot. Probably because of the hamstring injuries and we just don’t really see him train heavy heavy deadlifts anymore in his videos. Probably the last impressive deadlift we saw him do was at the Shaw Classic back in December when he deadlifted the 4 hummer tires, but even then he struggled af
@@gravemind6536 But Brian pulled almost as much as Eddie in the Arnold Classic setup (elephant bar, raw) and did all his best deadlifts in full competitions while Eddie did them as single events only training the deadlift. Also Benedikt was a deadlift specialist in his later years. Before his 2018 hamstring injury, Brian definitely had a shot at the WR, but being a well rounded strongmen is what makes his and especially Thor's deadlift so impressive, they trained for everything.
Yeah, tbh the weight prior to the WR looked relatively easy. I can't believe they said he couldn't. Just like Bill Kazimier saying Jerry will lift 500 KG but Eddie made 460 a speed rep lol.
@@gravemind6536 It depends on the competition.Ronnie Coleman looked huge,because he was next to 110-120 kilo guys, but these "light men" are next 180-190 kilo beasts lol
Jerry one of our American strongmen was so close to getting the new record of 1,185 and I have faith that he’ll be able to get there one day because he only had a little more inches to stand up and he’ll have to work a little harder to get it like Oleksi Novikov did

Damn his size was actually a super advantage for this. With such a narrow grip and stance he pulls the complete slack out of the bar and it’s already well above his knees before it breaks the ground. Shaw was way too wide.
Range of motion speaks volumes. Not to detract from the significance of this lift but novikov failed an 850 lb deadlift from the ground at the beginning of 2020. 350 pound difference from floor to partial is something.

It really is a case of learning to use your frame and size to the most effect. These are the best in the world and you see so much variation in stance and grip. Look at Bish compared to Jerry and both are elite lifters. Novikov is a genius strongman and probably won't peak for a long time yet!
The Guinness Book of World Records (1985 edition) lists his feat of lifting 6,270 lb (2,840 kg) in a back lift as "the greatest weight ever raised by a human being".

2) Taller people can pack more muscle in their frames, allowing them to become stronger, BUT...
3) Having a lot of fat also helps in increasing strength and typically very tall people can put on less fat before having serious health issues than less tall people
4) Having short legs and long arms ALWAYS helps in the deadlift and is THE SINGLE BIGGEST FACTOR that determines how much you can pull relative to your weight
5) This is not a conventional deadlift and the starting position is much higher, thus being short and having long arms/short legs is DISPROPORTIONATELY advantageous when compared to the conventional deadlift
6) People can just happen to pull more than they are usually capable of if they are in peak physical condition, have the right mental state or perform the lift under "the right conditions" and this plays a huge role, ESPECIALLY for a world record attempt

This is also true for the guys close to the equiped deadlift wr today like Makarov, Karu, Heinla, Pavlo and Peiman. Shouldn't they all be 2,05m tall just like Thor?
Being shorter helps alot for this lift I feel
a lot*

You know what's ironic i got an ad for chocolate before this vid
I hope their lower backs are still ok, let's go!
It is. Saw these guys for WSM last weekend and Oleksii deadlifted the car 15x
Congratulations. Alhumdulillah you are the world’s strongest man. 👍
Eddie Hall is the man. Him breaking the record with 500kg was the most insane feat of strength I have ever seen
There’s no secret formula. You lift heavy, work hard, and aim to be the best.
Please use metric units like any civilised man!
GREATEST JOB FOR US , WE ARE VERY THANKS FOR YOUR HELP GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS
Wow, annoncer mentioned the name "Tom Mcgee". Tom and I started lifting wieghts at our schools wieght room in junior high back in the early seventies. Knew he was into power lifting but didn't know he had held the record.
What a show!
if this doesn't show how strong Ukraine is, I don't know what does
This Oleksii Guy looks a freak of nature.... 😮😃....
537,5 kg iron man
It helps to be short. You don't have to lift it that far. Pretty impressive no matter what.
Then how come a midget isn't world champion?
Молодець Олексію! А скільки ж це в кілограмах?
Да яка різниця?)
@@roman-zq9zn як це яка різниця?! Цікаво ж знати скільки подужав!
