    Judging by the amount of sweat on his shirt he also did this de-hydrated, truly impressive.

    Well to be fair he practically powerlifted during his whole prep for the boxing match with Thor (one of the reasons he got beat so bad) and after the fight. So in essence he never stopped lifting heavy, not surprised at all he's still this strong.

    Very heavy, but not 240Kg. Considering the weight is not located perpendicular to the handles it is (D1/D2 X total plates + empty press) where D1=distance from hinge to weight location, and D2 is Hinge to handles. Estimating that D2=100cm and D1 is 60cm, the weight actually lifted is 60% of 240=144Kg, and adding the empty contraption ~20K=164kg.

    • @pachyderm8264

      This is absolutely right. Because the handles are farther from the axis on the machine than the weights, he uses leverage which makes it easier to move the weight.

    Eddie is something else - at 6ft 2 or 3 (can’t quite remember) he’s actually one of the “smaller” strongmen. He can swim fucking lengths like a damn dolphin, hit 30-50 press-ups like a god damn lizard in a mating display, run and then lift like this.
    I’m sure he is the combined product of every warrior, worker and grafter in human history, somehow, some way - through the infinite complexity of genetic inheritance and and human reproduction, - contributing DNA to this man.
    Once in a thousand years athlete. Has he lived 1000 years ago, they would be writing sagas about this man.

    Another commenter worked out angle indicating no greater than 160+ kg that Middle Weights 165lbs 75kg were pressing by 1972 and they cleaned the weight.

    It sucks seeing eddie in videos. Because you just know when you see him, look down in the comments and you'll always find people saying some negative shit about how he's "arrogant, fat, and dumb" or something similar. As though he's done something that warrants these name callings. I see this with certain people in a lot of industries tbh. Fans pick out someone to hate on and I think its more of a reflection of the type of person who does that than it is the person they're hating on most the time.

    • @coryjorgensen622

      Well, he is arrogant--he's a shit talker, and he does say stupid things--saw him quasi defending Andrew Tate the other day. I don't care if he's fat, that's part of being a strong man, and I respect him for his records, but he doesn't seem like a fantastic human being.

    I’m disappointed at the people doing physics and mathematics saying it’s not 240kg because it’s a machine.
    You all forgot to summon Plato from the dead in Ancient Greece to work out which astrology sign is closer to Eddie and then use SOH CAH TOA to work out the hypotenuse angle the machine is facing while also subtracting weight from the distance of the moon in its cyclical cycle as it’s closer to earth on the current hemisphere meaning gravity has fluctuated a touch so the 20kg plates are actually .00032g less than what they should be.

      @@pachyderm8264 Im fully aware of that, that's just not how you count weights in training. On that machine he did 240 kg. Those are just the facts. Leverage is irrelevant in this case.
      Of course he couldn't lift the same weight on a barbell. If he had to log this in his training he would put down 240 kg. It's just how it works buddy. If you ever went to the gym you would know that.
      I'm not American though. Have no idea how you could possibly come to that conclusion. You can try to insult me all you wan't, but the fact of the matter is that in training this will always be counted as 240 kg.
