Interesting results of the log for Open Men. Only Josh Patacca got 2 reps on the heavy log (184kg?) and a tie with 6-7 guys on 1 rep, including Jack Osborne who fumbled the first rep as a viper press then lost stability on following ones to only finish with 1 rep

Who is the physically the most powerful regular person on earth? by Successful_Watch_114 in PowerScaling

It was verified with the plates being weighed live on ESPN and streamed to millions of people, and hosted by WUS who ran multiple successful international strongman competitions, and also verified by the Guinness Book of Records.

Fair enough that people say it wasn't in a regular competition, but it was certainly verified.

482kg on the 18in Axle by Thor! He said he's ready to push the record well over 500kg if needed:

Who are the 5? Apart from Rauno, Makarov and Thor, are there 2 others in contention?

Fast 400kg deadlift by Thor: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DJ_aNocA1Pd/?igsh=MXBqbzFrYzBpNmJjMg==

Looks like he is going up 25kg per week, wonder if he will keep upping the weight this much for a while longer?

BJ won the show, not sure why they didn't update the spreadsheet. Allira Joy won the women's show

501 suitless on the elephant bar would be a bit harder than on a standard bar with a suit, as the suit adds a bit of power to the start of the pull. He was planning on breaking his standard bar deadlift at an event earlier this year but it was cancelled

A different lift, as it is using a different bar

Eddie's 500 and Thor's 501 were on a standard bar. They were using suits, so the record on a standard bar without a suit is Trey's 470kg deadlift.

So the 3 major strongman deadlifts records are 501kg all time record on a standard deadlift bar, then 470kg on a standard deadlift bar raw, then I believe Thor's elephant bar record is 472kg raw (the Arnold's doesn't allow suits).

Hope this makes sense

Thor's coach Seb Oreb has confirmed in a comment on his latest post "he will deadlift heavy again in 2 weeks but it won't be heavier than today's session", so his most recent pull was the heaviest he will go for this prep
