Sometimes riding a motor vehicle on a near-vertical surface just isn't crazy enough. So why not put a lion in your sidecar? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LqFApyS6Is

Quoting from the powerlifting thread:gohuskies posted:I know Ali, lifted at meets with her several times. She was swimming and got ran over by a boat, and the propeller did its thing. She was an athlete beforehand and powerlifting was one of the only things she could do afterwards. Deadlift and bench are impressive enough but the squat game ridiculous.

He got 1016 recently.ultrafilter posted:Zydrunas Savickas deadlift 1155 at this year's Arnold Classic: The difference between these two records is that Savickas is deadlifting in a strongman contest, which allows the use of straps. Straps allow you to hold more weight than you could with just your hands alone. Magnusson is deadlifting in a powerlifting style competition, which doesn't allow the straps. I'd really like to see what he can do with them. Edit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17ptVrk4vo8 is Magnusson deadlifting 1100 with straps. ultrafilter has a new favorite as of 20:11 on Oct 11, 2014 |

I don't know the actual numbers, but the risk of injury is lower than most people think. It's definitely not zero though. On the other hand, if something does go wrong, it's probably not going to go a little bit wrong.

Ed Coan is 5'6" and he has a legitimate claim to being the greatest powerlifter of all time.

The best part is how the events change over time. At the 2014 Arnold Classic (the other big event besides WSM), the yoke walk involved carrying 1200 and 1400 lb. yokes for 10 feet. This year's event is 1300 and 1500 lbs. for 15 feet.

Arnold's not as big as he used to be, but he was never the size of Brian Shaw.

Based on our best estimate of Pluto's size before the New Horizons measurements, we thought that it actually had less surface area than Russia. I don't know if that's still true, but if it's not, they're still comparable. Also, the site's not responding right now, but there's a very nice scale visualization of the solar system where the moon is one pixel. It'll take you about twenty minutes to scroll through by hand.

Nordick posted:I'd say that's not totally uncalled for, considering that he's literally one of the strongest men in the entire world. It's not so much strength, though. Mariusz Pudzianowski won the World's Strongest Man competition five times, and had a pretty underwhelming career in MMA. The issue here is more that Hafthor outweighs the other guy by at least 200 lbs.
