World Record Deadlift Attempt

[not on the rug]

Halfthor is going to attempt to beat Eddie Hall's record live on ESPN at noon today.  Should be interesting

That’s a tuff record to beat but Eddie Hall did say when he broke the record that he thought his new record could be.

That was pretty sick. 

[iluv2hunt]

Very impressive. He made it look easy. He only broke the record by 2lb. So I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s broken again in the future.
