- Astonishing! Mitchell Hooper has just broken the Axle Press World Record!
He pressed 218kg/480lbs at The Strongman Classic 2024 in front of a SOLD OUT Royal Albert Hall on his second attempt!!
This is major deja-vu from Iron Biby's incredible 217kg in 2021!
Unbelievable from The Moose!

"Hell yeah. Gimme a couple of minutes, I'll hit that"... Wow
No broken promises here!
What a sick line before grabbing a WR.
Fittest of the whole line up
ye
i loved that. He knew exactly what he was capable of
He got TWO WORLD RECORDS! The axle press and the wrecking ball hold! AND TIED the record for the axle deadlift for reps! Kordyaka broke the record for conans wheel, Tom won on stones, it was an absolutely brilliant event, well worth the subscription!!
Was there something in the air there lol? So many guys looked so darn good at their events. Congrats to Mitch and everyone.
@DMD82 Hooper is also co-holder of the keg for height WR as well lol. Like, couple those accomplishments along with his podium/win consistency I don't know how there can be doubters out there. He IS the man right now. All the others are chasing him at every competition.
Can't wait till SMOE next month.
@@chuckjones5379 he almost got a trifecta 2 years in a row and people still doubt him. Dont forget he became a pro strongman only in 2022 and he's already at the top. Dude straight up has potential to become the GOAT
@@chuckjones5379 yeah him and Tom at wsm '24, I'm not so excited for smoe anymore, hoop is gonna walk it with Tom and thor fighting for second and third
He got a WR and still won the competition. Moooooooose!
2 WRs and tied another one, is he moose or machine?
@@crytz1587 moooose!
Still? If he got 2 Wrs and then did not win that would be weird. Only if he did not finish the competition.
@@ThunderbackOGThe implication is that a world record attempt would drain him too much, leading to poor performance in the other events.
@ThunderbackOG Just to elaborate, the competitors receive points based on rankings. This means that Hooper only needed to lift heavier than all of the other competitors, in order to receive the maximal amount of points. Whether or not he got the world record wouldn't change the amount of points he gets. So if he only cares about his rankings, he wouldn't need to attempt the WR at all.
Amazing effort for him to miss on the first attempt twice then take a short rest and come back and smash it!
Any overhead pressing event is the most impressive of all the events! What a great world record to hold! And the wrecking ball hold. Wow!
My 2 twin sons are 7 months old. My overhead press improved a lot (about +70 pounds) in the past couple of years. I also feel motivated from recently becoming a father.
Congratulations on becoming a dad and overhead pressing well over twice as much as I can!
Hooper finally has a world record. Well done.
A record of the World
He already has set a couple of world records
Iron Biby's and Eddie's are more impressive with the straight up strict press, but Mitch's is also really good, he has the best lift technique of all strongman.
@@ancapgrandscribe9546 to be fair, I'd be more impressed if Eddie and Biby could even do a split jerk. :)
Nonetheless, all of them have enormous shoulder power. Mitchell is just using more of his body.
@@doctorgorgomel Why split jerk when a strict press is as best as it gets?
Glad it went to someone who competed in the entire competition.
Ouch
My sentiments exactly.
What an amazing lift! Mitch is truly inspirational.
For everyone that is complaining remember the first time we saw this movement, Mark Henry squat cleaned and push jerked the axle at the Arnold strongman classic.
mark henry is not comparable to other humans tbh... the man weighed like 100kg at 12 years of age he's really build different 🤣🤣🤣
Mark Henry push pressed he did not jerk it. Go watch it again
@@spokeen6249 Just watched it again, he push jerked. The second dip was there.
@@Bossman_aus no there isn't 😂😂
@@spokeen6249 If you say so
Congrats. Well earned. Had to fight for it and you got it. Was cool to see you work on it on your channel and then see it happen isawsome
Okay, I'm was subbing, I was watchin, I was looking over the hype train... and today, I jumped on. That was awesome. People will complain about it not being a pure press but ffs guys, it wasn't a full jerk and he locked out 218kg's. That's awesome and Mitch just proved that he is a total legit. Praise all over
"total legit" for strongman standards, which is untested... which means they take peds
It doesn’t matter that it’s not a pure press because his technique is very much according to rules, it would be same as complaining about using straps when deadlifting
Hall v Hoop Its like a different lift really, and shouldn't be in the same category, just shows how young and naïve the sport is really, still lots to do to show real fairness. Halls static is still way more impressive for me, Hoops skills are more trickery and manipulation while also being strong.
Best show ive watched in a while! Well done Mitch Hooper!
No surprise. I've been wondering for years why all strongmen don't use the split jerk, as it's the best technique once you learn it. The smart thing to do.
I think that is why he has been so successful in strongman. He is very clinical in his approaches to certain events and his training and uses every possible advantage he can get.
I think strongmen are hesitant to do it because if they split jerk, they are kinda missing the press in the axel press.
@@rampage222555 Right it takes the right timing and whatnot to get it, but once you got it mechanically it's the best way to do it.
@@tomhiggins875 split jerk is for boys who aren’t strong enough to press it. MEN press it with raw power like eddie hall
@@Sugmadig69Well, at least MEN don't need validation from others.
It's more impressive when you consider how much lighter he is compared to iron biby or eddie hall etc.
ye but they didnt jump the weight up just clean press
@@hb6789 True, I don't even know what exactly are the rules for this lift. Like, if he had a perfect clean and jerk technique, would it be OK to use it?
Eddie made 216 look like an empty bar and used 0 legs, only shoulders.
@@Lubet0TheGreatyep Eddie had more in him that day for sure
@@Lubet0TheGreat its like a different record really
This is great to see. He's a naturally strong and inspirational strongman.
"And i love you guys...much less, but i love you" lmao what a savage
Probably the most animated I've ever seen The Moose.
If he will keep a clear technic for jerk, he can lift 5-7 kg more even now.
Congrats BIG MOOSE!!! Great job m8-cheers!
At this point, it’s a preference thing. Same as many people still regard Bene Magnussons deadlift as the best ever, regardless of weight being eclipsed. For me personally, the axle press by Eddie was astonishing. Mitch rightly has the record and it’s in the books. My favourite axle press will continue to be the Eddie Hall
Incredible! Awesome Moose!! 🇨🇦💪🏻
Everyone discrediting the lift because its a split jerk have no idea what they are talking about. The rules are the rules: Get it from ground to overhead, by ANY means. The technique is challenging to master otherwise everyone would do it. If Eddie and Biby ir anyone are stronger than Mitchell, they can learn how to split jerk and beat him then. I'll wait.
Congratulations Axle Press World Record Holder Mitch Hooper!
A Jerk is a type of press. Not a separate lift altogether.
In many ways the OHP is the anti bench. It's so hard and so much legitimacy is placed on putting a heavy object overhead that ANY technique is considered acceptable. Jerk, push press strict press hyper arching are all equally valid for the greatest test of strength we have.
Ur right rules are the rules and no doubt hooper has the record now but with that said Eddie's was a strict press so its more impressive and the argument can be made that he could have done more (quite possibly a fair bit more than this) if he push pressed. but he didn't so thats a what if. It's hoopers for now so congrats to him he's been working hard for it.
"by ANY means" so that makes it seriously a BAD joke, to call it the heaviest lift ever, when drug tested people half his size can do that weight ... and more. A joke ... warm up weight for Lasha Talakhadze
@@gshaindrich lashas records had him dip under the bar a lot more to catch it arms extended making it less of a shoulder strength feat (still wild crazy). Also drug tested by no way means drug free
This guy is officially not human at all 🤯😄! Crazy! He is like a third the size of Bibby and still pressed more. Absolutely mutant alien strength!
He jerks and dips, he doesnt press more
@@losvatos6714he did 😂
@@losvatos6714 If Bibby could do what Mitch just did, he would have
@@brettrunyon6698 Yeah and if Hooper could Strict press it like Eddie he would and not waste his time learning to jerk. If you wanna beat the best and make a statement do it at their game !
@@losvatos6714 If Hooper could strict press like Eddie he would still jerk it and the record would be even higher
Lots of special people in the comments.
🧩🐢
Congratulations moose 🫎
Just yesterday I watched Iron biby 217 kg record lol
The real record*
@@giovannicupello1977 It was the real record, not anymore though
@@elantonelle Mitch is strong, but it’s a jerk not a press so not nearly as impressive
@@mac5917 iron biby is also much heavier
@@mac5917 Its strongman, press includes leg drive.
He is just so insanely impressive. I love the amount of amazing and wonderful people there are in the world of strongman.
The guys immense. It’s amazing how he manages to do these lifts with a much smaller frame than other record holders and compete with the much bigger guys. Well done!!
Wow, congratulations Hooper! It all paid off
Im assuming Colin meant a 3rd jerk/press attempt. Congrats Moose
That's amazing. That's a weight no ordinary person wants to have above their head!
Crazy that Iron Biby did 217KG for his WR with zero leg drive and effortlessly. I still think that his overhead pressing power is unmatched.
Mitch is just incredible !!!
Congrats Hoop! From 🍁!
Fantastic show! Thanks a lot!
Let’s goooo ..much love Hooper!!
What a legend! I did not know Moose was such a darn good overhead pressure.
With each crazy year that passes, athletes push their limits, I admire them so much
This guy is next level. Smart asf being an exercise physiologist and having an excellent training approach, he will be on top for a while...
Lets go Moose, you got it!
He’s not stupid. And he’s actually pretty honest. When the announcer said “pressing power,” hooper immediately commented on the split jerk. That is very honest because it isn’t pure pressing power… its more technique. But the credit still goes to him, he took almost 500lbs from the ground and held it over his head. He took the weight from a to b, same as other strong men. However when eddie hall pressed the 216 for example, that was pure pressing power!, he didn’t even jump the weight a bit.
He really deserves to be more famous! He is such a good person, great integrity and humble!
That was clean right there. Hell yeah mitch, well done.
One of the greatest WR comebacks of all time
Got the world record and won the competition Big Z style just awesome, Mitch will probably go down as one of the best to ever do it as a strongman, congratulations.
What makes all the more remarkable is that's on the second attempt. A wonderful example of technique meeting strength.
I was there for this event… and if anyone ever doubts the power of the crowd… go to this event and you’ll see… we were SCREAMING with him for that 2nd lift… there was no way he wasn’t going to get it up. Awesome event!
What a fun show it was.
Congratulations on the the NWR keep up the great work
The announcer isn't annoying at all.
So happy to see this. The previous world record of 217kg was illegitimate as far as I’m concerned, so it’s nice to see order restored. Mitchell Hooper is a magnificent beast.
From a marathon runner to a static strength world record holder, what a beast!
That Mitchell can hit it after a hard-fought first attempt...an inspiration and a good dude
This man is fantastic 😊
That’s a boatload of weight! Congrats hooper!
Hell yah Mitch. Great job
I like when good people win. Mitchell is a good person.
Hooper is now in the same league as Brian, Eddie and Hafthor.
Wow! So impressive! Well done Mitch! 🫎💪🔥
FYI world record for clean & jerk is a measly 267kg, this is 22,5% more or 49kg more than Hooper did, furthermore strongmen are untested
Congratulations hooper
MOOOOOSE !!!!!!
In 2 minutes i will hit it. 9 months later he was a father.
😂
Are they saying "boo" or "moose"?
I was saying "moose"...
I knew it. No doubt is was going to happen. Mr. Hopper is a strong man.
What a great strongman and just man in general.
Ловчев "подержите моё пиво"
moose showing why he’s the best. to come back and hit record weight after failing is incredible, not to mention making it look easy
Just imagine if prime Eddie and Bibi actually used some leg drive instead of pure pressing. Axle record would be way higher if they did.
Awesome job 💪
Awesome, congrats moose
LETS GO HOOPER, first and many more to come
Class athlete 👏👏👏
Very impressive - the last of Eddie's records just got snapped. But what's wild is how Olympic Lifters (yes it is a very different bar) are slinging 220KG+ at far lighter body weights. There are dozens of guys at 110 kg Body Weight slinging 220 kg in the clean and jerk. The World Record Clean and Jerk is 49 kg more than this (267 kg)... That's like 110 lbs MORE than the strongman record. That's wild.
It hasn’t been Eddie’s record since 2021. Check out the flintstone lift from WSM if you want to see how these boys compare on a regular bar
OLY lifters only OLY lift. Not that wild given that fact and the bar and discs being different.
They specialize in only two lifts. Hoop does it all! Nonetheless, you make a good point!
I'll be at Giants Live in Vegas in September, i can't wait!!
It's quite amazing, in my job as a floorlayer we have to move 200kg rolls of vinyl and just moving them around at ground level, between two of us is very hard so to lift something even heavier than that above your head really puts things into perspective and the strength is just amazing.
Insane lift, but Eddie’s 216 kg strict press record will always hold a special place for me
So happy for Mitchell to accomplish this at Giants! Hopefully we get to see Thor get an official Deadlift record soon.
Bravo sir! What a lift!
Hell yeah. I knew you had it.
No one complained when Martins did the split jerk, great effort and it looked like there's still a few more pounds to go.
Congrats Hooper!!!🎉
I am impressed, but not surprised. Hooper is as intelligent as he is strong, and that shows in his methods. Well done! 👏
Now Bibby will probably come back and Break 220 KG. Eddie said in a interview back in 2019 i believe that he thought the day he broke the record he could have lifted 230 KG but he was focused on winning worlds.
It's too bad we don't see Big Kaz doing the interviews anymore.
What Happened?
Amazing Respect!! 💪💪❤❤
Wow...he crushed it. 👍💯
New Axle jerk record. Wonder why they keep this name, i mean if they want to allow it thats one thing, rules are rules, just the name is not correct anymore.
If it's allowed, it's allowed. Update your reality.
Congratulations sir! Amazing lift and from what I understand you are not crazy heavy like a lot of the other guys which makes it even more impressive. This single lift may be the number one best test of human strength. Must have a strong lower body, have to be able to clean heavy weight, have a strong grip because of how thick the bar is and must have a very strong upper body to press it over head!
Hell yea! Congratulations 🎊 smashed it
Kez words made it happen, that must go down as one of greatest lifts in history, to miss it 2 times and then get it well done
Mitchell Hoooooper !!!
Congrats !!
Fantastic. Well done
Awesome!
Good job!
Amazing effort !!!!
I love when Neil Pickup commentates
Amazing to fail on 2 tries, then catch your breath and succeed on the 3rd. The most I have ever deadlifted is 200k x 5. Doing 218 overhead is nuts. All the best to him.
Congrats Mitchell
He delivered as promised🫎
WOW!! From a double fail to a record!! Amazing!
