New World Deadlift Record!!!
Benedikt Magnusson just deadlifted 440 Kilos or about 970lbs. This was at the
WPO meet in Helsinki Finland. http://www.finnishpower.net/news/upl..._HEAVY_SHW.PDF
Absolutely incredible. Congratulations Benedikt.

Check out his bench and squat...he obviously came to DL.
Is this confirmed anywhere else? It's not on the WPO site

Holy crap, so it's all official?
I read elsewhere he plans to do a 1000lb deadlift with no straps in competition. Crazy. Love this quote from him.
"I just love to deadlift," he said. "It's fun and it's the only true measurement of strength. You attack the bar - if it doesn't go up, you can only blame yourself. You can't make excuses." - Benedikt Magnusson
Here is a video of him comfortably doing 426kg (939lb)

Gotdog!! Andy Bolton's total is getting up there. All said, his bench is pretty pathetic, but if he went all metal militia on everyone he could bump Gary Frank outta the picture.

Imagine a Gene Rychlak 1005 bench, a Jeff Lewis 1202lb squat and a Benedikt Magnusson 970lb deadlift in a meet
I would make a T-shirt with "y3k" on the front and back

benni officially has 968, not 970...(440 x 2.2)
bolton has a shot at 3000....sa he hits the last attempt he had DL wise for 970, can raise hsi squat a bit more to 1175...thats 2145, leaving him only 855 needed on bench for the magical 300
if he can get to 1000 on DL, and 1200 on squat, thats only an 800 bench

I like the way he lifts. He knows how to line up his body and get intense.
He should coach Diesel Weasel.

Man you're not kidding, you know Andy's gotta defend...I bet if he came in with token bench/squat he could pull 1000. It's cool that there's two guys after it instead of one...

Google yields 970
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&l...bs&btnG=Search
1 kilogram = 2.20462262 pounds
Not sure how WPO rounds it tho, rounded to tenths (2.2) it is 968.

I can't believe the totals we've been seeing this month. Makes you think someones gonna hit 3000 sooner rather than later.

unbeleiveable video. That guy is sick.
I would hate to use that bar after him. I'd look like a child.
Props to him.
He's only 22. You've got to be kidding me.

I think he has an ammonia cap tucked behind his ear, at least that's the theory that came about after his 940 gym lift video.
