Time for Hafthor to become Fullthor!
Amazing joke, the 1637th time is way funnier.
@@gaysenberg8806 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hahaha
Dude, that was the best comment on any video I've seen in a while. So good 😊
actually good lol
1:43 1100 kg total
nah fam 1100lb. im stronger than thor. lol of course kg haha
It’s gonna be tough but I think it’s possible for him, he’s probably gonna have to gain a lot of weight for it thought and I don’t know if he’s gonna want to fully commit to doing that
didn't he just make an entire video dedicated to telling us that he IS willing to do that though?
That's the plan 👍
Yep about 120-140lbs. That’s what ur gonna see him do
He's already knocked out 1100kg in 2018, I think adding another 100kg to it is fairly easy for him with no distractions.
@@joebot9309 Lmao he is already nearly 370 pounds, that would be pretty heavier than he ever was.
Halfthor has the deadlift, but those squat and bench numbers from Dan will be difficult for Bjornsson. It will be exciting to see his attempt!
His squats are incredible, especially when he gets close to his prime weight. His squat was close to his raw deadlift then. It was deep and got red lighted because of bad judging.
The bench is problematic though elite powerlifting-wise.
If he specialized though for a few years. Wow. The problem though is if he can handle more years and get away without harm.
@@osigma-5713 if he intends on going back to strongman in 2024 I can’t see him taking any ATWR in powerlifting. Just doesn’t give him enough time to reach his peak strength AND improve his proficiency in SBD
I'm stoked about Hafthor's announcement. He also said he wants to return to strongman in 2024 and compete at the Arnold's Classic and Rogue Invitational. Cool!🙂
Great!
And not the corrupt WSM
Twitch just not paying the bills. Glad to see him compete again though
It feels the like the meet he's planning on doing is more of a stepping stone to return to strongman but it should still be fun to see what total he puts up.
I refuse to let me get my hopes up like this, but it would be awesome if you were right!
I didn't catch up with the current line up of strongmen, but it looks like a peak Hafthor would smash the competition? I really like Pavlo but I think he's still too young to give Thor a serious run for his money.
Barren Mateusz, who could really give him a challenge?
@@brianfox340 He literally made a video today saying he will compete in 2024 in the Arnold Strongman Classic and the Rogue Invitational.
@@luka188 that's awesome! I'll have to watch after work!
“Fun” “awesome”.
You’d know there was American spanners in the comment section alright. 🤣😂
Seeing him and Eddie hall going head to head for the powerlifting total would be epic
feel like eddie only has the deadlift and bench, squat is lacking too much to get close to the total
@@ShadowGaming26548 thats what i said: he has DL and bench but his squat is lacking
You want the craziest in all that stuff. John Haack has the same bench and deadlift than Bell.
Haack is the greatest power lifter of all time.
@@robk5745 Greater than Paul Anderson himself? How can that be?
@@Jet735 haack is Goat status
@@Jet735 Paul wasn’t really a powerlifter more of a strongman who practiced and excelled in the big 3 lifts along with many others. Haack however puts up numbers that most SHWs can’t even touch at less than 100kg
Best of luck to him.
Wonder if Eddie hall regrets his bodybuilding journey now 😅
not gonna lie. I figured Thor would be the one to go into bodybuilding, and Eddie would get into powerlifting.
Eddie could still say, powerbuilding 😆
Eddie going into bodybuilding is the biggest nonsense ever, considering his huge midsection. Makes no sense at all.
@@punxsutawneyphil3944 when you say midsection, do you mean his gut? Or just how his trunk is structured?
@@punxsutawneyphil3944 agree, his proportions will hold him back.
Love to see him get back full-time into strength sports. With genetics like that it’s where he belongs!
That's hype I'm excited for the videos coming
Respect to 16 year old pulling 230 kg !!
No because is sumo
@@fabiotieri3155 can you lift more?
BREAKING: Eddie Hall announces his intent to compete in powerlifting.
That would actually be really cool but I think Eddie already bought his posing trunks
Eddie could have dominated powerlifting. No doubt he's the strongest static lifter that has ever lived.
@@Blackbullet_racingEddie's grip was extremely questionable. He completely fucked it up in 2016 at WSM. I'd be surprised if he had anything above 400kg in him on deadlift
@@stokiemanbrent4200 Lol okay. He would have made quick work of 880 lbs if he trained for it. 900-950 is more accurate.
@@sbdftw1702900-950 needs a good grip, a really good grip. Eddie didn't have a good grip at all
i have prayed for this 🙏 I believe in him!
Well, if there is anyone alive on planet Earth today that can break that record...it is Thor
Jesus olivares>
@@bobabdul7348 Yeah Jesus is going to have the record sooner or later for sure
Yeah Jesus olivares out totaled peak Thor with three years of training while not having knee wraps
@@bobabdul7348 Good call
@@benedict5544 They are neck and neck in their own ways in my opinion. Jesus has more deadlift potential but his grip is still an issue because when he has done 900 a couple times one hand slips and he can never lock it out. Thor has excess potential in the bench because he has barely touched it and he added 50lbs on it previously doing a 2 month powerlifting prep. Then he did a 2 second pause with his new max.
This will be fun!
Jesus beats Dan's sleeved total before Thor beats Dan's wrapped total
@LiftingVault You said at 1:43 that hafthor back in 2018 had an 1100 "pound" total, but in fact it was a 1100 KILO total! A 500Kg toal for ALL 3 lifts combined wouldn't be that astonishing for such a tall and strong guy😉
Dreams do come true
Absolutely crazy that I met him in my local gym
your voice and tonality bring me great suffering
I think it will come to the bench, which is going to be tough for Thor to improve to a big PR in a year
+1 Thor can definitly squat and deadlift 430Kg, but the bench will be harder.
You guys miss the point , his bench is lacking because he never trained flat benches , he hit 250kg after only a month of prep, if he focuses on bench he could easily get up to 280-290 probably, good indicator is that he did more reps with 100kg dumbells than Eddie , bench is where Thor will improve the most
Will be interesting to see where he can get to, but can’t see him breaking the record
So awesome. If he takes a year or so and really chases it and bulks up again, no doubt he can go 2500+
1 year to hit his peak strength?
Idk man, that doesn't seem like a ton time
Viking strength 💪💪💪
Thors heart is gonna be redlining
I wonder why raw with wraps
I don't think he'll match the squat but he'll make it up in the deadlift I bet. Then it will come down to the bench and I always thought he was pretty conservative in bench and has more potential than what he has been showing. It possible and will be close.
I think it’s unlikely but very excited to see what he can do
Left hand salutes trigger's me so fucking bad
100%, Absolutely one hundred percent, Hafthor will break the WR.
I just hope he actually does it in a competition this time instead of in his own gym so that itll actually count🤣
@@breyden9363 Found the Eddie fanboy
Your right I do beleive Eddie's lift was superior 🤣 halfthor made it look way easier but it still wasnt in a competition
@@cameronearls6497 theseassholes never end brother
@@cameronearls6497 Thor's last "powerlifting meet" was also at his gym, so it is a reasonable wish. If you want to actually break the total world record, you have to do it in a meet with others.
Interesting challenge, he is going to need those 50 kilos he lost to get back to that level.
I'm assuming he's going to aim for a 480 kilos squat, 270 bench press, and 440 deadlift. He has a lot of room for improvement in the bench press, and for the deadlift he can improve his grip, it seems to be the limiting factor, but he has huge hands, deadlift gives him advantage over the other athlete.
I have a question for bench press. After the changes that states the elbows need to be 90 degrees does the bar still have to touch the chest if the elbows are 90 degrees?
its only IPF rules
@@CyrillicTM only ipf rules require 90 degrees or do they require you to touch chest?
@@ThornnAce both
@@marcosh513 ok thank you. I train like a normal person without a huge arc in my back and I touch the bar to my chest anyway but my friend said you just need to go 90 degrees and not need to touch chest for it to count so I was just wondering.
@@marcosh513 sub90 to touch the chest makes the most sense really. I'm not huge but i'm not touching chest at 90. I got long arms so really it'd help me to not full rep and fuck that. i wanna do a rep if i'm gonna do a rep. No calling it good 80% down kuz i can. hit, take a breathe, and push.
I don't quite believe he will do it
If he can get that bench near over 6 then I think he's got a hell of a shot. I'm very excited to see what he can do in powerlifting.
Danielle Belle. Very well rounded.
Wow Dan Bells got people coming at him from both angles: Jesus for sleeves and Hafthor for wraps
Rooting for Thor to get it!
his most recent meet was raw with wraps, not sleeves. You can see them in the video.
He definitely has the 410 pull, but he has a long way to go for a 272.5 bench and the 500 squat in a full meet is bonkers.
He should use his pulling as an advantage
I don't think he is going to get to 500 squat. Probably somewhere around 460-470. And pull 420-430. But I feel that he is going to make huge progress on his amateur-level 1.2*bw benchpress. Probably around 280-300kg, still just 1.5*bw though.
Thor will prove all you haters wrong when he uncorks the world record sumo lift on his way to the total. Rumor is he's been working on sumo form for a year now, and was recently heard saying, "If you're not cheating, you're not trying."
lol no
Correction: he IS intending to return to strongman in 2024 by way of the Arnolds and Rogue and off the back of his powerlifting. He explains all of this in the same video
Good..... Gooood!!
How much difference does the monolift make on the squat?
For raw lifters not *heaps*. Malinichev basically squatted the same out of squat stands as he did a mono. The effect/difference is more noticeable the wider your squat and Thor is pretty narrow.
this dude is so competitive he's going to supplement himself into an early grave. No way he's ever hitting 60 years
half a ton squat? goddeym!
Damn he couldnt handle cruising for long lol back to mega blasting
After this Thor should go for a 505kg or 510kg Deadlift!
Why? No one is going to get 502 for at least 10 years - their is simply no one capable remotely on the radar
@@joebot9309 502 gonna fall at some point soon I believe, my best bet would be Pavlo who is so damn young he's sure to get better by a good amount I'd say. But if Thor pulls 510, it could be decades. But I reckon Thor prefers to have a challenge, I think he would do it if his record got broken, and if not, he would leave it.
He got a long way to go. Also, those are clearly wraps last time he competed
He said he’s competing “raw with wraps”
Once bodyweight and juice come into the equation he will easily be a threat.
@@donovanj4481 He also said "Last time Hafthor competed, he competed in sleeves" which is a wrong statement
@@silatguy Yeah, but still adding over 200kgs to your current total under a year? Idk about that. Even his highest total at 200kg bw was still 80kgs less
@@tnb6359 Yes it seems unlikely but even Dan Bell off cycle had been performing a lot of squat singles in the 8-900 range since he hit 1000lbs in his ATWR total, Thor will gain a massive amount of weight, he has muscle memory and PEDs. Also, Thor doesn't typically go RPE 10 on any movement so he is typically getting stronger and never emptying the gas tank, always saving it for the platform. That's what he did for his bench Pr and world record deadlift. He can look weak in training and then he takes big jumps at competition time.
Definitely he will do it.
"supplementation" 😏
It isn't a lifting vault video without a kg/lbs error
Man, Daniel Bell is built like a 6'2 combat Dwarf
Dan weighed 315lbs in grade 6 lol serioulsy he said that on the elitfts interview the other day
@@joebot9309 man child
I have a ton of respect for Thor but I don’t think he’s going to beat Dan bell he set the record by like over 200 pounds and he’s squatting 900+ for reps I know one thing this will be very fun to see play out
Thor won't get 500 squat. But I think his benchpress and deadlift will have an edge.
Definitely possible but his bench needs work if he wants the record
1:44 (kg total)
Needs to seriously improve his bench for a chance at this
I did not realize anyone had ever squatted half a ton before.
what makes you say he recently competed in sleeves?
That was a mistake on my part, it was indeed in wraps
A year or two.
Very doubtfull, the Squat is really far far away and he is not built for it. Bench will be similiar in the end compared to Bell, but he's also not that great of a bencher. I dont think his deadlift will be able to make up for it.
bro, he still has 80 lbs to gain lol
Last time he got a 460 squat, which didn't count but looked very decent. For benchpress, he is only at an amateur level with about 1.2*bw bench. It also means there is lots of room to improve. Considering even 300kg is just only about 1.5bw by then.
You said the last time thor competed was in sleeves then showed him in wraps?
That was a mistake
I will be very surprised if he meets this goal.
same here, his chances seem very slim to me. Also surprising to see so few voices as yours and mine , but I guess perhaps just many people prefer to stay quiet and not be labeled as 'haters'
Imagine a Eddie vs Thor powerlifting meet. Would be fun to see these 2 monsters against each other even if both have lost a lot of strengh since retiring.
I'd honestly put my money on Eddie. They seem(ed) relatively even on deadlift (maybe Eddie's grip would cause him trouble), but Eddie has a clear advantage on pressing, and I think on squat as well.
@@staceygram5555 prime for prime maybe. Eddie's finished now, his body wouldn't hold up. Would break if he tried to get back to his prime strength
Thor would clean Eddie - like he has every other time. Eddie has zero grip and zero disipline
@@stokiemanbrent4200
I was talking prime, yes.
@@staceygram5555 I don't think Eddie's grip would be good enough for a 400kg+ deadlift unfortunately. He tore his hand ligaments in 2016 at WSM which destroyed his grip
Squat would be close. Thor would beat Eddie on deadlift due to grip strength & Eddie would smoke Thor on bench. Would probably be fairly close overall
You'd need to have Eddie from early 2016 prior to his hand injury
I just wish he didnt go the wraps route :(
1:41 I subtotal Thor's total :^)
If Thor does it he should be static king and call Eddie Fat
The 970 kg total was in wraps, not in sleeves
I def think Thor can do it. He is still young enough to get it done and he had already put up over 2,400 without even training powerlifting
Hafthor is a beast, it woudnt surprise me at all if he breaks it
Well rounded lol tru
230kg thor
It says 500kg/1002lbs for Dan's squat when it should say 1102lbs
I just hope if he does this, he goes for it at a big meet head to head against Dan Bell. I don't want to see him do it at a meet in Iceland, even if it's a sanctioned meet. Has to be either at Big Dogs, ProRaw or Hybrid event
Who tf made the US the be all end all? Lol he can do it wherever he wants.
Some serious fucking US defaultism here. 'Your work doesn't count unless you do it in my country', okay so I've decided Bell's total doesn't count unless he does it on the Faroe Islands
How do you want him to coordinate that?
He can't control who competes.
A sanctioned meet is good enough for me.
@@EVO6- It has nothing to do with it being in the US. It's that Thor always tries to break records by inviting a few of his bros to his home gym and calling it a "meet," when everyone knows the whole thing is setup to make him as comfortable as possible. It's much harder to break records when dealing with the stress of an actual competition where you don't control all the variables.
@@EVO6- 1. that's where the biggest (non-tested) meets are. 2. Thor hasn't competed in a "real" meet (a meet he hasn't organized and a meet outside of his home gym). I'm sure OP wouldn't mind if he competed at one of the big Eastern Europe WRPF meets with Yuri and Krystopf. But, competing in his home gym with Runar and his dad is nonsense
yuh
Stronger than Eddie Hall!!!
If he stays injury free. The record will be broken
So 900kg in squat and dead total ,and slightly below 300 for bench? In less than a year? I will prolly shit myself if he manages to complete it.
"supplementation" lmao good ol' vitamin S
Vitamin 120lbs bodyweight
@@joebot9309 yeah yeah whatever
Bench press - 250 kg
Squat - 440 kg
Deadlift - 501 kg
Overall - 1191 kg his best performance
I wouldn't include his deadlift there if we're talking about powerlifting. 3 pretty big reasons that 501 wouldn't pass lol
Yeah you're funny
@@Spotter_Loader that's your decision, i saw it and it's enough for me
@@educationgamer8473 not my decision; Thors best official deadlift under powerlifting conditions is nearly 20% less than his 501 at 410kg. Thems the facts.
I thought he wanted to be healthier
He also wants to be an all time great, and he doesn't have his whole life to ponder that decision
@@EVO6- he already has WSM titles + deadlift WR, that's pretty good haha
He is healthier he’s only chasing powerlifting record it’s easier requires less damage to health
@@nicholasdimedio302 I can't imagine an ATWR powerlifter is on less gear than a WSM competitor
You said he competed in sleeves but you can literally see the wraps LMAO. He’s never competed in sleeves
Do you think he'd take bennis conventional wr
Unlikely I think. I would guess grip will still be a limiting factor
He is probably going to hit 430kg which he missed last time. For more, he has to train his grip strength very seriously.
Yea I don’t see him beating the world record it’s just such a ridiculous record
Honestly it would take 5 years
He won't piss clean, but he could get close
Less " suplimention" than usual lol
Good.
shame hes not going for the raw record
How are Hafthors genetics for power lifting? Does his size help or harm? This seems like a tall order.
His height and athleticism are what makes him a legend at strongman. Doesn't necessarily translate to power lifting. He's got to move the weight a lot farther than shorter, stockier guys. Obviously he's still at the elite level, but if he's going to start chasing world records, he's got a long way to go in terms of strategy and technique, particularly in the bench.
It helps because he has more frame to strap muscle too
well he never trained powerlifting and got a 2400lb total in his first comp lol
Thor when being asked that question said that initially being small you are stronger, but with time the sheer larger frame means that you can carry more muscle mass in total and ultimately you can be stronger than any smaller athlete.
Smaller people aren’t ever stronger you see giants lifting world record weight you don’t see any midget breaking a world record in shw class because they can’t
what number does he need on each lift?
530, 1030,1050? just needs to beat 2606.
hes done 550, 1089, 1100 albeit at a heavier body weight and not in the same comp on the same day. i was doubting but now i think hes gonna do it
The 501kg deadlift was in a suit with straps and he won't be using either at a meet. The most he's done at a meet was about 904lbs.
I'm not saying he can't break the total WR, but I wouldn't focus too much on the 501kg pull in particular.
@@joel5956 he's done 1070 suitless but with straps. I bet he can do 1000+ under the rules
He needs a 480Kg Squat, 265Kg Bench and 440Kg Deadlift to Total 1185Kg and break the record.
I don't see it happening, not within a year.
@@moa3821 no way he's pulling 1000lbs raw.
Don't forget, he had done 480Kg with straps/suit at the time where did 410Kg in a Powerlifting meet.
As a Strongman, it was basically his job to have an amazing grip, yet he still couldn't hold on to a 430Kg Deadlift. What makes you think this time around he can do 24Kg more?
@@popcornto6032 seems like he's rushing the timeline
I don't know, he might beat the deadlift but I can't see him beating the squat or bench.
Bro stop rushing your videos. Literally a typo every 10 seconds. Says he wore sleeves, while showing him wearing wraps...?
thinking the same thing man
Lets be honest that 500 kg squat was text book perfect what the acutal fuk
He can total 1200kgs
I think Thor takes it no problem. His 460 squat was a harsh call and flew up. Deadlift he’ll be close to a thousand pounds. Bench he’s never trained properly and will make big gains.
If you add the numbers its 2500 just saying 900+1000+600
Less supplementation than usual😂
Raw for Hafthor means squatting with wraps💯
