- The heaviest lifts in competitive history!
Since 2008 Giants Live contests have witnessed many increases to the world record in what many believe to be the ultimate test of strength - the deadlift.
World record holders featured here include
Kevin Nee (USA),
Laurence Shahlaei (GBR),
Brian Shaw (USA),
Benedikt Magnusson (ISL),
Jerry Pritchett (USA)
and of course, Eddie Hall (GBR).
All these lifts are performed in full competition, under strongman rules - allowing straps, suits and bar hitching - enjoy!

Is Deadlift the 'King of Events' in Strongman, or ....hmmmm ??? Log? Axle? Stones? Farmers? Hercules? Squat? Dumbbell?
Everything
Box jump
I think deadlift is hyped right now because Eddie hall broke a huge barrier but in reality its a combo of everything. Grip strength is def jey
I quite like the axel press aswell tbh
It’s a mix of everything. Stones, squat, deadlift, bag over bar, I love it all.🇨🇦
Don’t know how many times I’ve seen the play back of Hall pulling the half ton and it gives me chills almost every time
Same for me and I must have watched it 40plus times now
Watched it a couple of months ago, now today. Hard to put into words how inspiring this is. And I don't even lift or workout etc.
And it still impressed me more than Thor’s lift. Probably because of the fact it took 4 years for anyone to get close, and the fact it was such a jump up from the old record.
its still the world record. Every man with half a brain that knows the actors is highly suspicious about the 501kg "coup"
I personally believe if Eddie did not push himself like that, we would have to had waited a long time for the 500kg. I know Thor broke the record, but Eddie breaks human limits in strength. It's like Usain bolt running under 9 seconds for the 100m just showing it is possible.
That's 100% correct
@@jackschieferdecker4656 I'm saying this is what Eddie did for strongman. I do know his record is broken and others will break other of his records. But that is how I see Eddie, a Pioneer in strength sports.
I'll be routing for him in the boxing match against Thor. Both athletes deserve respect.
In fairness, I would still have Big Z as the true pioneer of strongman - he's won in 3 different era's, and owned the highest calibre event (Arnolds) - Even now he is still pursuing World Records.
Unmatched in terms of accolades or pushing boundaries. Eddie was good, but not a great in terms of strongman imo.
@@lf67hh28 everyone at this level are legendary. But I agree with you he is the best in terms of overall strongman. Let's hope in the 2020s stronger and faster guys emerge, this is what makes the sport awesome, always hoping for stronger but respect for the best.
I think the sport needs Thor back tbh, need to see what he can really do when pushed to his limits which I don't think he ever has been. Even on the deadlift WR he had so much more in the tank that it became frustrating tbh.
Thor laughing through this, waiting to see himself as an * at the end....then gets his heart broken with the final sentence. “Heaviest in competition”.
"...in competition."
Actually it says ‘Giants Live’ records. Any other video showing the official heaviest deadlifts would include Thor’s lift.
but Eddie only did the Deadlift and left, he didn't do a whole competition, Thor has the heaviest deadlift in a whole competition at 473kg suitless
@@meginna8354 474kg speed rep, nearly got 501 after. Interestingly Eddie’s best suitless deadlift was 465kg for a max effort grinder
@@meginna8354 heaviest raw is 465 by benny brother
To anyone still wondering where Thor's lift is. Please read the TITLE of the Vid. I'm already seeing people searching for Thor's lift and even Novikov's.
Thor holds the world record for any lift 501kg in any aspect of competition he holds it.
@@jasonswift7098 Can you explain further? I can't seem to understand the relation on what you're saying to my comment.
Competition world records are considered official. There's is controversy around Hafthors lift because it was done at home.
And Novikov's lift is a differenttype of lift. Because it's elevated like 13-15 inches.
@@jasonswift7098 Some people still seem to not understand a lift made in the gym and in competiiton. As far as people in the sport count it, Eddie still has the heavyest covencional deadlift made in competition.
Eddie Hall is just incredible honestly love that guy
Excellent deadlift montage. Really enjoyed it. Thanks.
Much appreciated!
Love this! Very well put together. I freaking love Eddie Hall, such a character. Benedict is always great to watch, steady Brian Shaw. I just adore watching strongman. ❤️🇨🇦
Eddie and Benni, love both of those guys. Excellent montage.
Great video. Thank you
thanks for watching and letting us know ! we appreciate
Amazing lifts.
This video is amazing
Came for the deadlift. Stayed for some dehydrated comments.
Konstantīns konstantinovs 426kg pull raw, beltless and no straps is perhaps one of the greatest displays of strength of all time.
Benni Magnusson pulled 460 kg raw without straps in a powerlifting competition. That lift to me is the greatest deadlift of all time.
Even Eddie couldn't lift 460 without straps.
@@ora6925 true, however Konstantinovs weighed around 127kg when he pulled 426kg, whereas Benni weighed around 180kg for his 460kg pull. Still an amazing feat of strength.
we will never know - but no one can argue against you on that. His Powerlifting pull at 460kg for purists and powerlifters deservedly has to be considered the greatest deadlift of pure deadlifting with no aids or whatever. So we dont disagree. Strongman deadlift grew out of necessity to keep the mens grips for more events. Im pleased Benny backed giants live in bringing all communities together so Benny wasn't against us doing it at all. In fact he owned the Strongman record too at one point.
Watched the video of Eddies 500kg about 1000 times and it still gives me goosebumps every time !
I know hafthor beat it by 1, but eddies is still my favourite of all time
If Eddie was hydrated he could have lifted 1000kg easily
for sure
chills and watery eyeballs at eddies 500kg.
Chills, literal chills!
Benni should go for another Try he could get close because he has some Huge Grip Power
He is unoficially retired
he in fact holds the actual deadlift WR 464kg (without straps). Other records are a specific records.. (strongman deadlift etc..)
He has a lot of injuries. His prime was 2011, when, I think, he could've done 480kg.
he was going for and did 440kg not long ago but injured himself
@@adamhaile1 "actual" gtfo, actual is floor to lockout
You start cramping and sweating just watching this
Amazing feats of strength
I'd like to see Jerry have another go at the record. I don't know if anyone has pulled 465 as fast as him. Maybe Thor. He looked really healthy and strong at WSM this year. I'd love to see a working man get the record.
Eddie- heavy rock star!
Official Strongman knows what's up 😉
0:08 I Remember hearing in a Eddie Hall documentary that he would try anything too out edge his opponents in competition, he went too a psychiatrist/counselor too make him think deep dark thoughts about his kids i.e. bad things happening too them and this is would help him win events in competition i.e Fight or flight situation. see at 0:08 / 0:09 , you can clearly see he's thinking that here...
*_GREAT_*
The Edie Hall area was definitely the most exciting one
What’s the song that plays during eddies 500kg deadlift
Eddie, Big Z, Shaw.....one of the best
What is the song playing at 1:15?
whats the song name used in the intro?
Oh damn. Shade at halfthor at the end
honestly, no - he just didn't do it at a giants live contest thats all.
Faaaaaaaaaakin Eddie mate. One helluva performer. Loveeeee me some Eddie.
Personal opinion:Eddie's 500 in a competition is way more impressive than Thor's 501 at home
Personal opinion: Benedikt breaking 500 off the floor is more impressive than either of those lifts because he did not cheat the ROM.
que impresionante media tonelada
Always eddie and brian❤❤
life goals
What are the songs used they are insane
Whats the intro song?
I don't really get why people get upset about Thor beating halls record by one kg but not by Benny beating his own by one aswell.. And please don't say it is because he beat his own. I think it's just because of the dislike some people have against Julius
Watching while deadlifting, oye
I bet the crowning achievement for Eddie was breaking the world record in front of Arnold.
No one gonna comment on the thumbnail? I looks like he has some super small legs in comparison to his body. Hilarious
Did Eddie deadlift that 462 without a belt?? damn and without a deadlift suit too
No he wore a belt and the suit was rolled down
@@yutmanrodreg3253 ahh yeah but it's amazing he did it without the help of the suit
@@weightliftim9921 He still wore a suit, it was just rolled down. Doesn’t mean he didn’t get anything from it
@@yutmanrodreg3253 yes, but for the deadlift suit to really be functional it has to be worn completely. Big difference in the tension from wearing all of it as compared to having it rolled down. This is seen with way they seem to have difficulty reaching the bar with the suit on.
Apparently he took one year training as raw as possible. Only straps and belt. Guess that helped jumping to 500kg when getting back to lifting fully geared
Maybe If nobody took sides we would see 510 kg next year, maybe...
Ik for a fact that this video is for THOR 😂
People are searching for record lifts here while it is clearly stated in the video that the lifts here are compiled record breaking lifts from the GIAN'TS LIVE competition.
I don't know why people are so agitated that Thor is not in the Vid when he didn't make a progressive lift in the Giant's Live competition.
Eddie is here because he did lifts that broke the previous recorded highest lift in GIant's Live.
So If you want anyone that broke through 500kg to be in the vid then that said person would have to do the lift during Giant's Live.
For the love of GOd it's in the title.
Charles - you are a bright man and a wise man. Thank you for writing that it is kind of getting boring doing it again and again and we appreciate the help to stop conspiracy theorists assuming the worst.
I want to see any of them do an over under with no hitch . A lot of weight but far from legal. Ed Coan 901 at 220 . 1996 US Nationals. 584 bench . 1076 squat. Belt wraps only .
Other strongman: let's set a new record. *goes to add 1kg to the weight*
Eddie hall: *goes to add 35 fookin kilos to the previous record*
Big Z, 215kg axel press world record -----> Eddie goes for 216kg to get world record ....
💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
if Eddie and Thor didn't have a beef, we'd probably have seen 505 even 510 this year.
Is it a young and lean Jerry Pritchett... who celebrate Kevin Nee (like in 1:04 )
wow man if it's true..
I really dont think so as far as i want it to be true 😂 but thats a different guy
Watching this is a religious experience
On the way we goooo!! Still gives me fkin goosebumps!
where is Haftor's dieadlift 501 kg??
👌💯👌💯👌💯👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
"what did u say?" ... if u answer anything else after heavy lift, u didnt put the full effort in
eddie literally speedruns this event.
Eddie hall The world strongman
465kg é pra poucos
Hafthor must be seeing red
Eddie should go for the 520kg. To bad he doesn't compete anymore. He said he can pull 550kg. Maybe one day he will.
Всё здорово, но вот один момент..... Мне не понятно...... Почему они все в тягах тянут? И защитывают почему? Рекорды защитывают!
To be fair, this is lifts performed at Giants live. 501 wasn't GL.
Neither was Eddie's at the Arnold Australia in 2014 yet they included it lol. This video is just to puff Eddie up and diss Thor as usual.
@@connorwhitson4542 do you mean the guy who claims staged gym lift in his own gym to be a world record?
now halfthor goes where is me,...
I love the slight dig at Thor from
This video completely disregarding his “at home world record” 😂
Read the title again
Lol and Thor just dominated the lift straight after😂😂😂
Imagine Thor watching this video and seeing the end. :)
@@antoniocenteno1483 That is true, but they should have at least mentioned his record in the video, with the disclaimer that it wasn't in a competition.
The video is the world record progression at giants live
We are not casting opinion on whether it’s a valid world record or not, it’s simply not a giants live video and it’s not something we own rights to. Is it a competition record - clearly not. Is it the heaviest lift ever - obviously.
Get over the Eddie Hall fixation, Official Strongman channel creator. His record has been broken, and his body has broken down after over-exertion. Thats why he retired prematurely and now's a WBF contender.
eddie co owns official strongman
@@J.c410 alright, thats y. Also, probably because of the Brit comraderie
So This is Eddie's chanel
Eddie is registered as the editor and co-owner of Official strongman. So yes
No - it isn’t correct. it’s the Channel of Giants Live to be exact please read the about section,
. Eddie Hall is apart of Official Strongman dot com the online competition and video site, He is also apart of a RUclips channel called official strongman Com. Though, yes, like all strongman - it’s a small number of men at the top - a family of athletes and organisers who rely on each other to build the sport - so of course we have worked extremely closely to Eddie Hall. Likewise Hafthor too.
But don’t read into a deadlift progression at Giants Live video on this channel as something sinister when Thors 501kg isn’t included. It’s very simple: we don’t own the rights to show the footage. Hence the title - Giants Live deadlift progression of world records.
and that's the end of that until now, real lifts in real competitions
Thor's lift is as official as it gets. The video is about giant live events
@@J.c410 Brian Shaw made a good video about his opinion on the matter, I agree with his statement.
@@_SkaffaH and most peoppe dont, just becaus ehe's brian shaw diesnt make his point of vue an automatic truth. No one complaoned about the whole wis strengh series, they only cried because thor took eddie's record. This series of event was the single best thing ti happen in strongman for years, giving unprecedented views to the public. Most strongman record are held by guys that were guest lifting for a sibgle event in a random competition, what does these events have anything different with it ?
@@J.c410 The answer to your question is in the Brian Shaw video. Im not saying its true because Brian Shaw made the video, I am saying he is making valid arguments that do carry extra value imo because they're comming from someone who is 4 times world strongest man. But the foundation for my opinion on the matter is the logic behind his arguments, not that the arguments are coming from Brian Shaw. And the fact that his video is very well recieved tells me alot of people agree with Brian Shaw, even though it's obviously biased because mostly Brian Shaw fans watch Brian Shaw videos.
Wsm crossover with summoning salt? Lol
That's right. Eddie's 500 was in a competition setting.. Thor's 501 was at his own gym,, that is not a sanctioned event, so it is NOT a legitimate world record. No one was there to monitor the conditions or the weight. Eddie is the greatest dead lifter of all time. Thor will never be that.
The most respected judge in strongman was there to monitor everything, and they weighed everything on camera. Yeah Eddie's was more impressive but saying Thor doesn't have the record for most weight lifted is just dead wrong.
@@lightspamorochi766 Perhaps you misses my earlier comments on this matter. Only an arrogant narcissist ups the world record by 2/10th of a percent, then calls himself a champion. Only an arrogant asshole does it in his own gym instead of competition. I don't care if the weight was accurate and it was observed by "officials". Eddie lifted 500 during a competition, not under ideal conditions, when he decided it was time. The real record is 500.
@@timhallas4275 which is why I said Eddie's was more impressive...
@@lightspamorochi766 More impressive is just a compliment. It is also the legitimate world record. When we start accepting men setting world records in the comfort of their own homes,under conditions they establish for themselves, that will be the end of legitimate sports.
@@timhallas4275 which is why when Shaw retires he's hoping to change that and get an official governing body in place for strongman. WUS declared it legitimate. It sucks and eddie deserves it more, but that's how it is. If you have a problem with it, bitch at WUS for being dumbasses and letting it happen, don't bitch at me. I support eddie over hafthor any day of the week, but WUS is run by assholes who wanted clout
rumour has it Eddie could have curled the 500kg if only he was hydrated
Hahahaha the shade thrown at Thor at the end end 🤣 Eddie did it in competition, when asked, held it for 6 seconds, went on to win WSM and then retired. Thor did it with no competition, had his dad weigh the plates, lifted slower than Eddie, put it down as soon as he could, and then retired immediately.
Eddie didn’t even lock his deadlift out. He had weak knees if you look from all directions. The referees helping Eddie out whenever possible as always.
He held onto it because he was trying to lock out his knees, which he never did.
His dad weighing the plates clearly made them all weigh half the amount, sorry I don't have a good counter to that absolutely brilliant argument.
Don't quite get the "Eddie went on to win WSM then retired" argument as being better than Thor retiring immediately? You do realize Thor's won 5 major titles, along with 5 ESMs, to Eddie's 1 and 0 right? In 2018 he won Arnolds, WUS, Worlds, ESM and totaled 1100kg in his first powerlifting meet. Remind me ,why are we comparing these two? They're not even in the same league.
@@Maddolis Yes I agree with the competition debate, but they ain't in the same league now someone's liking thors balls. Eddie first of all does have better static strength, yes he was beaten in the deadlift by 1 kilo but he also has the world record with the axle press and the Viking press he has also beaten hafthor with the squat for reps. Yes they both are statically gifted but to say that Eddie is out of Hafthors league now that's just plain stupid. Eddie beat him at 2017 WSM and looked like he could pull 500 again for the deadlift max event if he needed to and won on the Viking press quite easily, oh and don't say that Hafthor was close because of the 14 reps, six of them where double dipping the ref Collin and magnus stated that. I will agree that people who are saying that Hafthors dad cannot weigh the weights properly are stupid as well.
@@ronanmckenzie576 Yeah Eddie's a static beast for sure, my argument though is that they compete in Strongman which is really a mix of static and dynamic. Thor pulling 1100kg at his first powerlifting meet (damn near 1120 but his squat was red lighted) was super impressive, and I'd like to have seen Eddie do a powerlifting meet. They're comparable in static strength for sure, but when I say different leagues I mean as strongman athletes. The titles speak for themselves, even the number of times Thor reached the podium is ridiculous.
@@MaddolisIt would have been something if Eddie had done a powerlifting comp, but they both won WSM and Europe's, yes Hafthor has more titles. But Brian and big Z are the same, Brian has a lot less title than big z in other comps but with WSM they are the same. The biggest difference with Brian and Big is the Arnold wins. Brian with three and Big Z with 8. the only other big strongmen event that Hafthor beats Eddie in is the arnolds. Other than that they both have won major strongmen titles. And hafthor has done alot more strong man comps then Eddie so its not a fair comparison. But that is my opinion.
You can tell Eddie was so unhealthy at that weight.
He was sleeping with an oxygen mask on, so yeah that is nothing healthy. He's not likely to reach 70 anyway.
Eddie "Figure 8" Hall. He would not have gotten the 500 pull if he wrapped his thumb around the bar all the way instead of letting the bar hang down 2-3 inches lower with his straps holding it. Thor did the same thing at 501. These records should be considered 11-12 inch deadlifts because that is the true height of the bar once they start pulling. Take a puller like Benedikt. He always wraps his thumbs and fingers completely around the bar, straps or not, and does a true 9 inch deadlift.
ok, someone just watched Big Loz video
We get it, you watched Loz’s video and are trying to pass off his words. When you pull 1000+ pounds, maybe you’ll be worth listening to.
The only lift past 500 that counts is Eddie's.
Arguments ?
People arguing about Thor vs Hall, who cares? Eddie did something magnificent by sharpening the world record by !!! 35 kg's at once. Thor just showed that if he wanted he can easily deadlift 500 kg +, and yes it was not in competition but he had more in the tank, Eddie clearly was on his limits there. Both monsters. Let's stop arguing for once and just enjoy both of these records.
also took him 4 years
Eddie was far from his limits, just a shame he held onto the bar so long after the down signal.
@@ashleygoggs5679 He collapsed and passed out from the lift. That was Eddie's limit. At best, he could have added 1 or 2 kgs to it.
Thor got up 501 with more ease than Eddie got up the 465 before his lift. Thor's stronger. It's just a fact.
@@miloinindo Eddie held the bar for a good 10 seconds longer then thor did as he show boated to the crowed, thor dropped it as soon as the downsignal was given. It takes more strength to hold the bar there for longer then needed then to pull it lockit drop it.
The fact the the speed of both pulls was neck and neck shows eddie still had far more too give, as did thor.
aaah ok so you like to bum thor it seems, so if thor is so much better how come he didnt beat the record by 35 kg? not even 2 kg ? if Thor is so boss why didnt he decide to make things official and wait for a competition to pull his deadlift?
@@ashleygoggs5679 watch Thor in competitions. He never pushes himself as hard as he can. He does enough to win and then calls it good. He only went after this record because of his beef with Eddie.
How many times would this channel repost Eddie's 500kg?😂 I know the feat was awesome but this channel covered that feat like 5 times now. I know this channel is partially owned by Eddie but man, you're milking the sh*t out of this event.
Why don't you cover WUS feats of strength during the pandemic lockdown! Like 550kg 18inch deadlift, 501kg deadlift, 100kg Dumbbell done by Novikov, Tom Stoltman's atlas stone wirld record, etc?
We are giants live owned - not Eddie Hall owned. The 500kg was arguably the greatest strength feat in history. An 8% jump on the bread and butter of lifting. - deadlift, in competition was about as good as it gets. So please forgive us if we love reliving the moment again and again … this musical montage was our motivational version. Apologies as there will be many more versions yet !! And if and when we have rights to use WUS material as well then we would be very happy to air it. We simply dont and respect their rights thats the crux of why we do what we do. Thanks for watching and hope it answers the question,.
The heaviest Deadlifts ever. Apart from the heaviest. Because: the video title.
I believe it does have the heaviest official deadlift ever done in competition. As it is recognised still by Guinness World Records. Though, Like us, they too recognise Hafthor pulled the heaviest ever deadlift. But the title of this video is giants live deadlifts. And we only deal in contests. Training hall records are exactly that. But again - I must stress that isn't to say what Hafthor did isn't real or incredibly impressive. it just isn't apart of this video for multiple reasons but mainly the title is reflective of the rights that we own over TV footage. if we owned it and could use it then we would do a heaviest deadlifts video and it would be there at number one without doubt. But we dont and thus we choose to do competition lifts.
Benni Magnuson has the record.
certainly the powerlifting deadlift record
I appreciate not putting Thor's lift here
Read the title
If Thor wanted to set a proper record he had the opportunity to do so. But he wanted to beat Eddie’s record by 1kg out of spite Childish if you ask me and ruined his chances of setting a new “proper” record
Thank god they didn't include Thors phony lift, in my opinion and in my eyes eddie still has the deadlift world record
The title says specifically at Giants live you fool, obviously Thor’s deadlift was not at Giant’s Live.
@Hidde de Roos nope, he’s saying Thor should’ve done it in competition, which is why many feel it’s an unofficial world record.
@@blingeranvideos6568 my brother, you get what I mean, its easy to do something from the comfort of your own environment, harder when there's 10k people watching you. And did I say anything about Magnus Ver Magnusson? The lift counts, but not in my eyes as he didn't do it in comp
Where's Thor's 501kg?

@A-A-Ron Davis yeah, you may be right brother. I do think hafthor would’ve pulled 520kg the day he pulled 501 though.
I’d like to have seen what Eddie, hafthor, Shaw, etc could’ve accomplished if they had all focused on maybe heaviest squat.
