Hey this is me! Thank you so much for making this video, I really appreciate it! This meet was just me wanting to prove that I can hang with the best in the world. I had no hope of beating John, I was just there to beat my total and break 1900. I didn’t manage that on the day but I am still happy with my performance. Also, yes I am taking PEDs lol I’m pretty open about that. Thank you for the shoutout!
Thanks for being honest about the PED use, I know it sounds stupid saying that, but too many people claiming to be natural and it just sets unrealistic expectations for others.
hes a top lifter in the world and john is still miles away which doesnt mean hes bad in my opinion it shows how great john is comparing him to anyone in the world is unfair
You probably have a negative IQ. This guy pulls conventional because that's how he maximizes his numbers. He's a competitor taking all the advantages he can, same as everyone else.
personally i don't care if they use steroids or not, the only things i see is how far they are ready to go to lift as many weight as possible, the beauty of the sport is their determination and the passion they have for what they are doing, and supplement's doesn't change any of those things also very good video, you doing great 👌
@@J.c410 if you are around 200-250 lbs it means a lot cause it's a normal weight to have. Weighing 400 pounds and being the strongest does not negate your lifts but nobody can attain that weight naturally and very few can even with loads of peds. But yeah someone being 120 and being the best pfp is kinda silly
Hey Lifting Vault, a great lifter still my gym named Zac Meyers was at this meet. He’s a young and relatively new to these level of meets but he might be a good story! Give him a look!

@@turinho I think he mentioned in his reddit posts somewhere that he totalled somewhere around ( I cant remember, look it up on his account) a total of 1700-1800 lbs
Not everyone is on roids. I for example, i´m naty... my numbers are shit, but still XD Just a joke don´t take it seriously, my numbers are not so shitty, just standard shitty
You will have to be an idiot to not realize these guys are taking steroids. Sad part is powerlifters doesn’t even make any money so the risk reward is ridiculous.
is this sarcasm? Otherwise it is pure stupidity to think that a man under 200 lbs can bench 560+ lbs. That's more than you can ever deadlift my man. Inject yourself with everything you can get and watch your bench not magically go up 400 lbs.

Pretty cool that you had him on squats though, congrats on the great performance!
Great job verry impressive strength!

As soon as I read that you are on PEDs I thought fuck it, paused the video and shall be moving on..
@@Sonisphere1234567890 go check out Athlean X, seems more your speed
The response from the crew when he fainted was amazing. Quick response time, removed belt, elevate leg for blood flow.
Haha, it's okay to not beat THE freaking John Haack! This guy still has the heart of a champion!!!

This guy would’ve had the world record a couple years ago. He was up against the greatest of all time. No shame at all.
0:04 dude really did sumo pullers like that... 😂😂😂
Did em like that... as if everyone is the exact same and they choose the easy was out by doing sumo

Super inspiring, that deadlift defines the sport for me. He was not letting go of that bar. Fucking love it.
The beauty of power lifting is that it’s a battle against yourself as much as it is other people! Love the work and the perseverance
John Hack bench is unreal. All his lifts are great but that bench is so impressive.
3:07 aight imma head out
I was at the meet and I saw him pass out. I knew immediately he was going to be okay but it crazy to see him topple over the bar.
Did it seem slow in real life? I feel like the video footage is very deceiving.
This was super inspirational to watch
“In great pursuits, it is glorious even to fail.”
Pre deadlifts there was a 45kg difference between the two.
You are right, forgot Haacks squat was 297.5 kg
That’s a win in and of itself. Never give up. No matter the odds
That guys the literal definition of a badass
I almost teared up at the sheer heart behind that pull.

also very good video, you doing great 👌
I don't mind steroid use, as long as they are not pretending to not use it.
They’re not claiming natty to sell shitty programs or competing in drug free competitions so no one really cares
Damn cant imagine squatting 250kg at a bodyweight of 19
Trust me, it wasn’t easy. Feel like I was hit by a train
Lol what
I think he means 90kg not 19
scotpak100 no he’s right, I only weigh 19kg. Video is a typo
too bad its not 250 kg
Didn't know the guy but he deserves mad respect
Keep the motivation coming my friend. You've gained a new sub. You'll hit that 20k in no time.
Dude your channel is gold
This is very inspiring, thanks to him and to you for making this video.
That was great - all out effort, balls to the wall.
Very motivating! Great work
This channel is Gold
The tuck and roll 😂😂😂
That dude is a fuckin warrior !!!
It's pretty difficult to pass out while deadlifting and still look like a badass, but Eric Wilberg pulls that off here
Respect for him
“If Jason Blaha was born a man”.
Great job buddy!!! Keep doing your thing!!! 👏👏👏
Still impressive, even if he was unable to beat THE strongest pound for pound person in the world. 😂
Pound for pound doesnt mean shit

@@magnusdeadliftson7149 no pro powerlifter are natty dude, even in the lower weight classes
@@J.c410 I know, my point still stands. 200-250 is an attainable bodyweight for some. 400 is obesity unless you are 7'4" or sth
@@magnusdeadliftson7149 weight classes are just height classes in reality
this was a great watch
Unreal Eric !
Ima do this until im in the ground and they are throwing dirt on me
Lol Nates a legend.
If you don't think these guys all take steroids you're crazy. Still extremely impressive though!
wow, a nate diaz reference in PL? I love this channel.
Hey Lifting Vault, a great lifter still my gym named Zac Meyers was at this meet. He’s a young and relatively new to these level of meets but he might be a good story! Give him a look!
I actually saw him, shame he was just outside the 275 lbs weight class. Interesting guy for sure!
Lifting Vault thank you for the recent upload!
@@dajohnstamon25 No problem man, thanks for the suggestion!
Awesome video, I enjoyed it.
Got up like nothing happened
Debtlift is my favorite lift!
Love this channel bro

Cmon lol John Haack even posted his cycle on his reddit account
He even said in a podcast that he jumped on gear.
The real question should be: was he natty while dominated the IPF?

Wow, hearing that these people were on steroids really made me think less of them. Smh.
