New World Record Deadlift 1155 pounds World's Strongest Man

deadlift is the ultimate open-chain compound motion

Apparently the previous record is from the 70s...

This is not the world record deadlift; it's just a WSM competition - last time I looked the world record was held by Benedikt Magnussen with a 1015lb.

World's strongest man is usually well touted as such, seems like it's always on TV more or less, the heats are very big. Savickas is usually in WSM, but they don't often do world records - at least when it's televised here - because they don't want to strain or overdo anything during a succession of strength competitions, they want to be as strong as possible to just beat the competition in the next one!

Wow, my back hurts just watching this...

For some reason (initial height off the ground? distribution of weight?) the tyre deadlift record is different from the deadlift record with weightplates.
