@@jram7047 nah man my mom saw it when her and her church group walked in while I was beating it. I could tell by the shocked looks on their faces that it was the biggest they had ever seen
I’m a high school shot putter with a 16 lb personal best of 39’0 (11.89 m). The fact that these guys were able to beat that with the worst technique I’ve ever seen is a true testament to how insanely strong they are.
Form plus strength alone is not enough, they also needs to have the mobility, balance and explosiveness which most of the top athlete struggles. Strength wise, a lot of shot putters have 200kg++ bench too.
no way this is 7.26kg shot put i think its 6kg..no way this skinny guy can throw it 13m first attemps ever.. he is not that strong.. i bench press 520lbs and push press 360lbs and i throw it 11m at 340lbs bw.. no way he did 13 with 7.26kg
Back when I was competing in the 80’s as a hammer thrower I’d occasionally have to put the shot if our second string shot putter wasn’t there and I’d have been happy with 13-14m considering I rarely if ever practiced it. A good club, first string putter would be more like 17m plus if I remember correctly. You should’ve looked out a proper circle with a foot board, there not hard to find and and would’ve helped with your distance. The world record was done using the “discus” technique and it’s extremely hard to do, most used the glide, still not easy but probably easier for a newbie of your size. I’d be interested to see what you could do with a little expert coaching at a Highland games event.
I used to do the spinning putt, probably because I also competed in the discus and started with hammer(before I ripped my anterior deltoid to shreds crashing a scooter). . . but found the spin (if done correctly) made the release much easier. .
Bearded Hobby Homestead Our 1st string putter tried to teach me but i was a lost cause. I’m just glad this was before everyone had cameras in their pockets so there’s no evidence. I was a lot better at the discus though and can’t explain why as the technique is similar.
Its impressive to see how much you can do with the right technique. I think if Eddie would´ve actually done "the spinning" he could have gotten somewhere there 😄
I'd love to see that, as said in other posts with a bit of technique training Eddie should be hitting 17 metres. Going beyond that is years of work and like Eddie said, it is something you start learning as a kid to get really good.
Fun fact: World Record holder in the shot put, Randy Barnes, was an absolute beast. 1.94 (6'4) and 132kg (291lbs) He benched 256.5kg (565lbs) and trained with 272kg (600lbs) in the squat for 3 reps.
@@OakQueso Fun Fact Ryan Crouser the current world record holder is even stronger with a bench over 500 and a box squat up to 700lbs. He also can clean insane weights. He also is tested and not on drugs.
@MateuZ _- maybe true but with all the new training methods and improvements in lifting and shot pug form it is possible he is not on drugs. Also randy barnes looked pretty muscular, but Ryan crouser looks not as muscular just big and strong. Also ryan crouser is 6'8" so that helps.
Im not positive but I think you are supposed to measure based on the initial impact point not where it rolls to. they are artificially adding a bunch to their score.
Can we talk about how much technique matters in this. As a freshman in high school I throw shot further than the strongest man in the world. Technique always wins XD
True. Even in strongman, a guy with better technique might beat out a stronger guy. Still, you can't be a wimpy little dude and just practice technique. Did you see how big that dude was in the video they watched?
I’m calling cap as a freshman you there over 30 feet around 9 meters The average freshman shotput is 23-26 so unless your the best freshman shotputer alive you ain’t beating him Though I do agree technique is far more important than strength
My biggest concern is cardio for both of them. Boxing is a science and I'm betting on Eddie. His cardio is better. Thor will burn out by the first round. Eddie should let Thor swing that power the first round and wear himself down. Then come out and pour it on him.
With the amount of technique I have I wish I could just transfer it to Eddie, it was so hard watching him throw this thing lol 😂 the whole skip jump was frustrating
Your shoulder is sore because you're not keeping the shot put on the neck😂 youre throwing it and not 'pushing' it😂 but cool to see ya doing something new👌🏼😎
The spin takes years to get good at the stand throw would be better for them. Also every single throw would of been called a faul. The elbow needs to be chin level and the shot put behind your ear. When you throw you can turn your head away but as you throw the shot put not before...
Agree, most off their throws are fauls. They strength now is a problem. They are generating a lot of energy in their shoulder and back instead off transferring it into the ball. Probably a still stand would have work better for them. So they would have had a change to put their legs into it. Shotup is the shortest sprint in athletics. Timing is all!
@@yoochoobb It's a shame really, I've never heard Eddie refer to Geoff even once. I'm not sure he even knows he existed. The comparisons between the 2 are so interesting, especially when you compare Geoffs famous rivalry with an Icelander :)
When you spin you are supposed to pivot your left leg for momentum, assuming a right hand toss. Need more practice with the technique to gain any real power.
I think throwing is going to be pretty intersting and hella useful to see in box prep. Explosive power-check, technique and force transition from legs to arms-check, ridiculously strong punch-check, diversity in movement and flexibility improvents-check.
Eddie's best throw is my actual my personal best as well except I was 18 when I did that and it took 3 years to get to that point but I can briefly say I am just as good as The Beast.

I was a shot putter for years and was English schools champion 3x and AAA junior champion ....I know exactly what I’m on about 17m is a good national standard shot put he would win most competitions ...internationally it’s not good enough but he would place in the British championships with ease at 17m possibly 2nd ....and if Eddie isn’t perfectly built for shot putting I give up ,he’s 6’3” and 25 stone + You actually have no idea what you’re on about

Take a look at Olympic hammer throw. Talk about technique & explosive strength! 7.26 kg weight on end of a 120 cm cable. Men’s record is something like 87 meters.
Watching this makes me appreciate just how great an athlete Brian Oldfield was. Seventy-five feet (22.86 m) in 1975 was astonishing, even if the powers-that-be refused to recognize his world record. Never saw a big man so quick and coordinated.
Hey Eddie, could you do a video chronicling how you got into becoming a you-tuber, how you met Hannah and Pat, some of your most viewed videos and how you produce and edit your videos using what software ect, sort of a behind the scenes
The shot put record has stood for 30 years and it’s just now starting to look breakable for a few lads who are similarly strong compared to Eddie and have trained their entire lives for the event. He surely couldn’t get the record no matter how hard he trained.
Am I right in thinking that our first ever Worlds strongest Man winner was on the British Olympic Team as a Shot Putter.. Geoff Capes some 40 years ago early 1980’s
At 00:39 I was convinced he said "and we have an Olympic shotputter here" - the camera pans to Pat flexing. For a good few minutes after I was convinced this guy was an Olympian. I was like "How the hell does this guy not know the world record?!"
Olympic but he can't spin his shot putt technique. I'm surprised both of them weren't doing any technique, Eddie could go further than Ryan Crouser if he had technique man's a crazy powerlifter lifts even heavier than Ryan
@Geert Matthys @@Outland9000 questionable...the 2m circle and the fact that it's a "shotput" as in you have to push the weight not throw it, equalizes the playing field, but as a general rule they are all over 185 cm tall with wide shoulders.
I am in hs with a 12lb pr of 50' 6 and a 16lb pr of 41' 3 and how these dudes just about matched my pr with next to 0 technique is just the most humbling thing. Shot put is definitely one of the most humbling events/sports.
14 meters is actually pretty good for someone who doesn't have any basics in shotput! I'm a 20 yr old decathlete, PB for shot put is at 12 meters You should make another video training with olympic throwing coaches!
Please go watch Lifting Vault's video on Sumo deadlifting. If he could have lifted more weight pulling sumo, he would have gone to IPF or another powerlifting fed to get his world record done. Because Eddie is so big, he probably doesnt have the mobility required to properly deadlift Sumo, regardless.
z gaio I don’t know the since behind it but if I think about it Sumo must be easier in terms of angle and travel. As far as I know sumo shifts the stress from the back more towards the legs. Eddie had/has super strong legs, being able to leg press far over a ton. I think if he would have trained a while for sumo he could have lifted more. But strongmen rather train the conventional dead lift as sumo isn’t allowed in strongman comp
Eddie I am a big fan man,you can try the discus too.Also you can do a colab with a professional Shot Putter or DT-er like Joe Kovacs,Tom Walsh.Our sport need more recognition.We lift heavy,do a lot of technique work,explosiveness,speed work.It's a beautiful hard ass sport! Love from Bulgaria !
You should really consider doing shot put you just need to be a little bit more flexible. You already have the strength and explosion and you need us a personal trainer to train you and you should be able to throw 18-20m no problem. You didn’t even use your leaver arm, didn’t drive your feet, throwing on grass, not keeping the shot next your neck, didn’t rotate your hips, didn’t flick your finger tips, and most importantly didn’t even launch it with much acceleration or at the right angle. The sky’s the limit for you and most Olympic shot putters are compared to strongmen. If you need coaching just look up Arete throws nation.
@Sebastian Henkins you morons throw this simp word around 100% incorrectly. So in 2020 if you tell a woman she's beautiful, your a simp? Have you never told a woman she's beautiful when your talking to her?

Worshipping Belle Delphine and buying her bath water is "simp" shit. Me telling Hannah she was beautiful, is a comment from someone who isn't blind. Fuck off you little geek.

I really hope eddie does more shot put. The fact his stand throws with 0 technique r going 45 feet is insane
Hey Eddie, could you do a video chronicling how you got into becoming a you-tuber, how you met Hannah and Pat, some of your most viewed videos and how you produce and edit your videos using what software ect, sort of a behind the scenes
Thor is definitely going to find a 7.63kg shot-put. I can’t wait for you to KO him Eddie 💪
Yutman_12 Rodreg not after Eddie rips off his arms
Yutman_12 Rodreg cool
Johannes Odensson he could still shoulder press ur Nan
@Johannes Odensson that's not fat have you seen the set of abs that are underneath it
I love how he's using a buffer as a massager 😂
I've been noticed by the BEAST!!!!
It's good that Eddie didn't cheat and just throw it straight up, and move the field itself. Good sportsmanship.
The shot put weighs as much as Brian Shaw’s snack
I have know doubt Eddie could break any world record if he could his mind to it! That's why Arnold nick named him the Beast.
Nah man, he has muscle but not technique. The world record holders have trained years
I like Eddie but that’s simply not true
@Zako you no it
The shot put record has stood for 30 years and it’s just now starting to look breakable for a few lads who are similarly strong compared to Eddie and have trained their entire lives for the event. He surely couldn’t get the record no matter how hard he trained.
When you use an industrial sander/buffer as a muscle massager... BEAST
(All throwers are laughing right now 😂😂)
Hhaah
Ha
Yeah 😂😂
Next we need the hammer throw, that could be interesting
Council: I think we have a mole problem. They keep digging holes in the field.
Eddie and Patrick: yep!
01:38 sit down children.... gather around
Geoff capes Olympic and commonwealth medalist at shot putt went on to become WSM x2
Geoff was a rare beast.
Thor breaks a record unofficially Eddie: hold my wispa
waqy gamin' there wasn’t a judge tho...
I am forever traumatized by Eddie's rugby fans impression @2:44....its just weird...and a record of the world....
Am I right in thinking that our first ever Worlds strongest Man winner was on the British Olympic Team as a Shot Putter.. Geoff Capes some 40 years ago early 1980’s
He should have won Olympic gold and was favourite to do so but under-performed in the final and I think ended up 5th.
Stay hydrated. It’s the key to success.
11:24 Bet Hannah has to put up with this all the time with these 2 😂
After your fight you should actually do a couple of training sessions and see how far you can get
1:37 who else knew this was coming? I literally said it with him... "A record of the world".
Has everybody seen the YT “Throws University” analysis of Eddie’s Shot putting Potential and prowess?
It was really funny
Hey eddie what about trying your old strongman training for a day..
He understands technique is so important in these vids then in his boxing ones says he is the hardest puncher in the world lol
I’ve been waiting for a Strongman to try our sport for so long.
Careful, that ball needs to stay at the neck area because its really easy to injure yourself in many different areas.
I love all the subtle jabs at Thor’s “world record” at the opening 😂
At 00:39 I was convinced he said "and we have an Olympic shotputter here" - the camera pans to Pat flexing. For a good few minutes after I was convinced this guy was an Olympian. I was like "How the hell does this guy not know the world record?!"
Olympic but he can't spin his shot putt technique. I'm surprised both of them weren't doing any technique, Eddie could go further than Ryan Crouser if he had technique man's a crazy powerlifter lifts even heavier than Ryan
Shotput is for real tall beefy dudes I remember a kid in my class who was 6ft6 at 13 being good at it in a junior level. He became an architect later
Shotputters (Is that the right term?) are units!
@Geert Matthys @@Outland9000 questionable...the 2m circle and the fact that it's a "shotput" as in you have to push the weight not throw it, equalizes the playing field, but as a general rule they are all over 185 cm tall with wide shoulders.
Only if you throw glide, or discus. eddie is more than tall enough for spin even though it will take him years to get good at it.
its like in South africa we all do it becuase there is just BOERE in south africa
I am in hs with a 12lb pr of 50' 6 and a 16lb pr of 41' 3 and how these dudes just about matched my pr with next to 0 technique is just the most humbling thing. Shot put is definitely one of the most humbling events/sports.
Lack of functional power, even I, a small 105kg "bodybuilder" put little bit longer and yes, I dont have enough functional power
When you save up all your in game experience on strength and nothing else
Eddie, I’m sure some of the UK Champions, Scott Lincoln, Lewis Byng, Sophie Mckinna would show you the ropes and appreciate some exposure.
Notice how when Eddie gets shocked, it sounds like he loses his balls. Perfect example, 04:24
Facts
Lol
14 meters is actually pretty good for someone who doesn't have any basics in shotput! I'm a 20 yr old decathlete, PB for shot put is at 12 meters
You should make another video training with olympic throwing coaches!
New world records have been falling pretty regularly in this, should reach out to Ryan Crouser and try and do a collab thing.
Should have called papa Capes for some pointers. Would like to see you try this again
Pat: Your cheatin you got a wrist wrap on
Eddie: What are you, thor?
Legend 😂
I thought he said are you 4 (years old).
How much weight do you reckon you could have sumo deadlift in your peak ? Would it be more or less the you 501 conventional ?
Please go watch Lifting Vault's video on Sumo deadlifting.
If he could have lifted more weight pulling sumo, he would have gone to IPF or another powerlifting fed to get his world record done.
Because Eddie is so big, he probably doesnt have the mobility required to properly deadlift Sumo, regardless.
z gaio I don’t know the since behind it but if I think about it Sumo must be easier in terms of angle and travel. As far as I know sumo shifts the stress from the back more towards the legs. Eddie had/has super strong legs, being able to leg press far over a ton. I think if he would have trained a while for sumo he could have lifted more. But strongmen rather train the conventional dead lift as sumo isn’t allowed in strongman comp
Eddie I am a big fan man,you can try the discus too.Also you can do a colab with a professional Shot Putter or DT-er like Joe Kovacs,Tom Walsh.Our sport need more recognition.We lift heavy,do a lot of technique work,explosiveness,speed work.It's a beautiful hard ass sport!
Love from Bulgaria !
You should really consider doing shot put you just need to be a little bit more flexible. You already have the strength and explosion and you need us a personal trainer to train you and you should be able to throw 18-20m no problem. You didn’t even use your leaver arm, didn’t drive your feet, throwing on grass, not keeping the shot next your neck, didn’t rotate your hips, didn’t flick your finger tips, and most importantly didn’t even launch it with much acceleration or at the right angle. The sky’s the limit for you and most Olympic shot putters are compared to strongmen. If you need coaching just look up Arete throws nation.
How has no one mentioned that Hannah is beautiful!!
Haha of course Hannah would heart this. Girl your a saint for putting up with the beast.
@Sebastian Henkins you morons throw this simp word around 100% incorrectly. So in 2020 if you tell a woman she's beautiful, your a simp? Have you never told a woman she's beautiful when your talking to her?
The reality is, you guys call everyone a simp, because your pathetic asses can't talk to a girl, so it's easier to insult everyone else who can speak to a woman. Worshipping Belle Delphine and buying her bath water is "simp" shit. Me telling Hannah she was beautiful, is a comment from someone who isn't blind.
Fuck off you little geek.
‘I’ll get my Dad to weigh it.’ Hmmmmm where have we seen that before?😂🤔🤔
Eddie must have shiny new shoulders using that car buffer.
The buggar can't do anything about the Deadlift anymore so moved to the shot put. LOL...
You see Eddie around Thor and Shaw and you think he's short. Then you see him next to a normal person and realize he's actually tall (which makes how wide he is even more extraordinary).
