Being able to bring 505 to the knees is still a massive achievement even if he couldn't deadlift it
Yeah I reckon he could have still done the world record just maybe not 505 I reckon maybe like 502 maybe 3
@@unomaster6987 Nah It wasn't that close, Makarov had closer attempts.
@@stanislavkolbe1646 yeah imma be honest I said that before I watched it lmao I didn’t see how close he was I just saw the top comment and knew he didn’t make it
@@stanislavkolbe1646 Agree, was not close at all.
He failed. Trying is not success.
One of the things I've always loved about power-lifting and strong man events, is the crowd generally doesn't care who wins. They love the effort and training put in by each contestant and will happily scream for them regardless.
Also how the athletes usualyy support each other.
It's because you legit want to see everyone's best lifting. Like really after Eddie halbrook that 500 Mark it's not like anybody didn't want to see all 3 guys lift it. I'm a cool that Eddie predicted and then did it. So often these guys are so focused you don't get to that world. It's funny how many guys that are power lifters are very unassuming very humble. Some even seem like real sweethearts 😅 really though guys like Brian Shaw and Benny Magnusson it's like they've been pumping the signal for a while "Hey check this out" Eddie breaking 500 was the biggest spike the sport has seen and really started watchingback in the 90s. I love how it's taken off though If I'm watching anything now it's either informational or powerlifting.
@@BlackCroft666it's a very basic thing that we zll want to know who strongest and what is possible. One guy says I'm gonna lift this who else wants to try. I don't want to root against any of them knowing that they train all the time giving up so much. You know it's really weird I think it's like the only thing that people call us for where eulogy to matley if you can lift that way you want to see if anybody else can do it you know it's not like anybody's taking anything away from you.
Love his attitude towards failing his last attempt, incredible lifts. Would love to see him hit this weight someday!
No, he should of been devastated. That's why he didn't pull it. He wants it, but not as much as Eddie wanted it. Snowflakes are brought up to a false belief that just trying makes you a winner, that is wrong

Year after year, the guys getting nominally closer to 500 shows just how impressive and unprecedented Eddie’s 500 really was.
Thor made it. Just that he didnt do it on lifting event so it was easier
@@sampetersson5887 not really easier. Crowd really gets you going. Every athlete knows that
thor could choose his own weights up to the lift. thats more valuble than any crowd.EVERY ATHLETE KNOWS THAT@@daniel224nl
Eddie was going to destroy his brain doing it while thor did it much easily and could have lifted 515KG

Ain't no could've... it gets done or it doesn't. No need to pad something with 0 proof
I am convinced this man is capable of 505. He got it to his knees despite having some injury scares in his prep not too long ago, and i think if he has a smooth prep the lift is his. Before the comp i didn't think he would try 505 because of the injury scare, but he really surprised me.
can u tell me when will 505 attempts gonna be live pls ?
@@shi5memes690 You can find them on youtube, all 3 attempts by rauno, ivan and graham
makarov moved it to the knees last comp, he was close, but this time his attempt was worse
@@philtejeda3110 I think his big mistake is lifting 490, and then 486 on the same day. Had he just done 486 i believe he would be more recovered for this lift.
He only needs 502 for the record.
Thanks for quickly getting these videos out. I've been waiting in anticipation. Great effort from Hicksy.
Superb work, 470Kg looked so solid! Next year!
Nah. He's almost 40. It's less likely to get it as you age.
Nah. In orden to lift half a ton. The 470 should look like a speed rep. Not the case
@@bmstyleewell static strength sticks around a long time, he has 2-3 years of max strength left
@@NS90xAurionagreed, as soon as I saw his 470 I knew he wasn’t going to hit 505
@@bmstylee 🙄
Great mental attitude. The 505 kg moved incredible fast from the floor. I think Hicks could do 490 or 495 kg. If he keeps working on it, he could do it next year. He increased alot. Also great support from his wife
My thoughts exactly, it moved very smoothly up to his knees. He should try for 502 in another 6 months or so. Just to brake the barrier.
@@Mukation 1 kg increments seems to be the trend. Also makes for a lot more celebrations...
490 for sure
I feel like 500kg is even there for him, that 470 definitely wasted some needed energy. I could be wrong but he probably was good to go for a max attempt after that 430. I just feel like that 470 is a waste of energy
@@user-cw7ng4tw3b I know it isn't advisable, but I've always hit my heaviest lifts cold. Warm up wears me out on the heavy weights. I bet he could do it but they like to sneak up to it to prevent injury.
Wow very impressive. he could have done 480 too very likely
4:53 That smile after the attempt where he realizes that it's possible , that's good shit
That's the face of a man who knows it's jsut a matter of time
i think it's more of a face like "damn atleast i tried" idk tbh
@@alrightfolks7459 exactly what I thought
You can do this Graham!!!
Peace & Love!!!
Great effort, but this just shows that Thor is not human.
No credit for Eddie advancing the WR by 30kg at the time?? …Thor’s lift was amazing, but it didn’t change the world… Eddie’s lift blew the lid off what people thought was possible…
thor struggle for 7 years to get that lift after Eddy
@@audaxrwebangiraa9279 Absolutely not. Eddie's record stood only 3 years and 9 months. Thor was doing full comps unlike Eddie who withdrew from competitions after the deadlift events. Thor has lifted more than Eddie equipped, Raw and in Powerlifting raw as well.
When I saw a locked-out deadlift in the thumbnail, it made me think he had done it. Then I glanced at a comment saying he failed. Well, at least it broke off the ground. I think he could've done 490-495, which is an incredible thing to say. In 2016, before that magical night, even 465 was a world record.
Then the title woukd have said "Hicks breaks deadlift record", not "attempts". I knew it immediately. He only needs 502 to beat Thor's record.
Well done to Graham Hicks for pulling 470 kg. Massive, massive weight. He had something like 480-490 kg in the tank today. Next year, then, for another go at the 505 kg...
He maybe had 504kg in the tank, you really cannot know
@@anyexpat He did not have 504 kg in the tank today...
@@cantilever You do not know that, you only know that he did not have 505
@@anyexpat I know that he did not have 504 kg in the tank today. You can tell by the way he failed with 505 kg...
Then 505kg and 1gram
Impressive. Man the ease that he lifted 470kg was impressive. I really thought he was gonna get the 505. You're awesome Hicks.
You clearly are not a very experienced lifter if you thought he’d get it based on the 470
Amazing performance by Hicks.
To get that much weigh off the deck is still an incredible feat of strength. Respect
Please Thor, it has never been the same since you left. Recover well and show us again what Strength is! God bless you big man.
Looks so calm and knows his limits. That's a real winner.
Great effort!
Really good effort big man. You'll get it one day!
*I remember his basket keg drop lifts in competition a few years ago which he totally dominated and it was impressive AF.*
Buddy, I've been waiting *all this time* knowing you would be back to wow us again!
Nope. Thor and Eddie's deadlifts are still leagues above. Every kilo counts exponentially when lifting those stratospheric numbers. Hats off to Hicks though 470kg is truly one of the best. I think 485kg is his true max
He's getting very close and has improved so much in his prep for it. I rekon he has this next year.
Beast!
The more attempts we see, the more we realize how much of a mythical monster Thor was. If he comes back and lift 510 which I think he definitely can do, it will not be broken for at least 10 or 12 years.
@@RinkyDink-gn4qc Thor will be back. No injury can stop that guy.
100% Thor will do it
EXTREMELY impressive 👍
Fair play to Giants Live for spitting out this video so fast, the event was something like £60 entry and I'm getting some of the content with a sunday morning coffee with the sun shining.
Great strongman video
Eddie and Thor are just different humans
Just getting that weight off the ground is amazing
paid to see this live just an hour ago. Did i miss the entire deadlift event?
I believe he's definitely got 505kg and potentially more in the future. That 470 looked so solid!
Good effort! That’s some scary weight!
Your a strong person if you can pull 505 pounds. It is amazing what people are capable of. Hope he gets it in the future.
It's kg
@@lolerfarty8938 I know that’s my point 505lbs is a lot, 505kg is amazing
@@Bossman-ud9khThen put "*You're a strong person if you can deadlift 505 POUNDS, much less 505 kg." The "pounds" in caps emphasizes your focus on the unit of measurement. Just a tip. Cheers! 😊
@@bigguy7353 🤓
Amazing attempt.
To put into prospective hicks is 145kg eddie and thor were both around 200kg when they did it. Hicks pound for pound is well above both of them. He should be extremely proud.
There's such a thing as optimal bodyweight for height with these lifts. Thor is 6'9, he naturally will carry more bodyweight than Hicks. Graham is like a dwarf in comparison, he's even shorter than Eddie. Not that 6'2 is short, sorry Ed😂
Hicks is arroung 170 kg mate not 145. He is really really thick for his height.
5'10" hicks vs 6'8" thor...or 6'2" eddie... imo thor could have done 505 if he attempted it that day. Looked like he had more in the tank on his attempt, not to mention he stopped lifting for strength right after that. If he would have stuck with it who knows it would probably be 510 kg by now
@@usamahakeem1208 He didn't do the 501kg on the elephant bar, he did it on a standard bar with a suit. The same setup as Eddie. The only time Thor trained with the elephant bar was on his run up to the Arnold where he trained with a replica of the bar, not the exact elephant bar itself. His PB on that bar was 480kg without a suit.
@@usamahakeem1208He didn't use the elephant bar for the 501. This is a proven, well established fact. Are you a Giants Live promoter or something? Giants Live isn't the authority on who holds records or not.
Great effort! Big big weight!
To move it off the floor 1 inch is INCREDIBLE.
Awesome!
Shows how strong eddie was to do this years ago
It goes to show just how remarkable Eddie Hall's achievement was.
He almost died doing it. Thor did it and held it there with ease.
Thor is the best deadlifter in history. His record deadlift was really much easier than any attempt I've ever seen. He had more power or maybe it's also because of the height and arm length. His endurance is also very good not only the strenght.
Hafthor is the King!
One more really good prep, with everything going well, and he's got it. Very promising
The muscle mass this man must have to be 154kg at 5'10.
Super fast to the knees 💪
He can do it!
Crazy strength man.
470! 😮
it would be cool to see Thor join Giants live next year and go for this
Afaik I think he's thinking of doing a "road to 510"
Now that’s what I call real power!
He had it!!
I think hicksy will break the record with in the next year , his deadlift is incredible, good luck from a stoltman fan 🏴👍
Golden voice by Neil! If I had it I could make a career!
we all start somewhere
His smile as he failed was respect for the weight but knows he can do it another time. Yours to be Hicksey!
I've been following his prep and 470kg was the target after the hamstring scare. Hicks looking good
The fact that he got it off the ground is BIG! He will definitely be able to do it in the near future, undoubtedly.
If he's going to do it, it'll be within the next year. He shouldn't bother with the 490 attempt.
Amazing strength! Well done,505 is no joke.
No shit it’s a world record
So close. Hicks is a strongman to the core
Man. He's got this lift in the bag at some point I reckon
Massively impressive stuff, that 400kg went up like it was 200kg, i think he has the 505kg in him he was so close.
Brilliant and I definitely put my back out watching it 😅
I hope you chase this for another year or two Hicksy because it is there
Was always gonna be the outcome. Amazing lift on 470kg.
This really shows you just how heavy 505 is.
От помоста оторвал 😮505,это вам не шутки!!!!
just crazy
Please dont do it 😂 it would give hafthor and eddie to go again 🤣🤣 they will not stop. If you watch hafthor pull the 501kg like it was air its crazy
It seems the only thing keeping hicks from 505 is gone, he now beliefs in himself❤👍
hixxy is sooo strong. Compliments to him.
Good attempt 😊
He made it move that much so fast! That is really impressive, maybe he makes it someday and probably make it look easy.
I dont even care if he made the 505kg or not. He lifted 470kg like i lift my shopping bags.
Absolute unit
He is capable he has the taste of it now!
How on earth did he blast 430 off the floor like that? Such a great lift.
He should have skipped 470 and saved his energy for the 505. When Eddie and Thor did their world record lifts, they saved their energy for the big lift. Neither of them attempted anything close to 500 in their warmups.
Don't get me wrong - 470 is an INSANE lift. There are less than a dozen men to ever pull 470. In fact, before Eddie hit 500, the world record was 460. So 470 is a MASSIVE achievement. 8 years ago, he would have had a world record.
With that said, you are either here to "win" the "contest", or you are "committed" to a "world record". You can't do both. You can't try to do a "winning lift", then see if you can make the world record. You need to throw down the gauntlet and make a firm decision.
I think he has 505 in him. He just needs to commit to the lift and forget about trying to secure a victory first.
You got this next time Hicksy 💙
Got it up at least! 🤙💪.
As long as he keeps himself injury free, i see the 505 next year
Damn so close! That’s really not far away!! Come on humans you can do it please someone do it! 👏🏼👏🏼
Great attempt 470 move incredibly fast especially from the floor.. what an explosive athlete. I remember watching eddies 500kg lift was amazing. This man is capable off 505kg 100%.
Good movement off the floor! It's not far off for him!
Almost 3 times my weight at the same height... my god what a unit!
Amazing attempt.
He was centering his feet by the Giants logo, but the bar wasn't fully centered on it, so that side swing upon lifting off must have been a pain
This pattern repeats itself. Everyone who has failed 500+ has somewhat struggled with the previous 465/470 warmup already. That lift needs to look like Eddie's 465kg if anyone wants a realistic shot at it
movin 505kg is unreal
They are getting so close. All the weights before the 505kg are comming up faster and faster, easier and easier. Maybe it is just the mental block of it being 505 and a World record, a record of the world.
So you're saying a world record is a record of the world? F'ing brilliant commentary here, folks.
@@bigguy7353 say you are not following Eddie Hall, Brian Shaw, Nick Best and Robert Oberst without you saying you don't follow them. It was a joke they made about Brian for talking about his world records. But i gues you have to follow strongman to know this, sry dude.
@@bigguy7353 look at that, "i make fun of someones comment and think i look realy smart" but get pointed to the video it was made in. And ......al goes quiet here folks.
Sry my mistake i should have made sure u knew it was a quote and named the source.
A great achievement for weight lifting history.
He is going to get it at some point
Le felicito desde España x intertarlo
the 470kg showed it...500 no but i think he could have 490kg in the tank
Fastest 470 I’ve ever seen👑
Hell yeah! Good effort, pulling anything over 450 is a huge deal. 505 is a nasty one.
"His back is like a drive in movie"
now he needs to be a youtuber
What type of support is he wearing to make him walk like that? Did Eddie or Thor use supports for their lifts?
If he wouldn’t have done all those lifts before that one, he most definitely has a serious serious chance of fully locking out 505.. Very impressive.! 💪💪
I was thinking the same. Thats like we lifting pass our PR 3 times and trying to break it again.
@@tedlessor3887but you need it to warmp up tho
You can just about see where the hamstring tear (right leg) might have come in - his left leg seemed a bit higher?
Dude started his warmup with 400kg.. 🤯
470 was fast!
He gave it a good crack
The 430kg pull was as fast as Eddie's 420kg when he pulled the half tonne. The record will be Hick's next year if he wants it
