I would actually say strongmen are currently the best deadlifters with Benni and Bolton not pulling anything huge recently. I did see the 400kg by Benni and it looked good. Lets say there was a $100,000 prize money for the biggest deadlift in one months time, I think it would be fought out between 4-5 guys...Benni, Shaw, Savickas, Hollands and potentially Kokyleav. 4 out of the 5 are strongmen. I do not know the form of Andy Bolton though. | ||

Member 4669, 61 posts SQ 200, BP 155, DL 280635.0 kgs @ 92kgs UnEq | Lmao at the guy recording. I think he wanted Shaw to lift it more than Shaw wanted to lift it. | ||

Getting fat is just as dumb as using PED's Member 3387, 2532 posts SQ 275, BP 200, DL 290765.0 kgs @ 114kgs UnEq | But how much can they pull to pl standards remains to be seen, not taking anything away but i think you are ruling out lifters such as Odell Manuel,Olemchenko,Vince Urbank etc | ||

End of an era. Member 4646, 1964 posts | His deadlift wasn't hugely hitched, I actually think he hitched it because he could. His grip is the best on the planet, holding the bar will never be a problem for him. | ||

End of an era. Member 4646, 1964 posts | No point risking his previously ruptured bicep and not to risk cutting up his hands. He trains with Mike Burke who went and destroyed a load of grip records. Shaw said his grip is better and there is also a vid on his youtube where he picks up a 'blob' and a grip expert says on the youtube comments absolutely no one else on the planet is even close to doing that. Shaw has the best grip on the planet! | ||

Shaw has the best grip on the planet! Plenty can pick up the blob Though I agree with your general point, I doubt his grip would limit his deadlift | ||

3rd place Europes strongest man 2016 U90kg Member 1239, 13275 posts SQ 280, BP 155, DL 310745.0 kgs @ 89kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 05.08.2013 @ 20:11 PM by General_ill Terminator said:Am I the only one thinking that he would benefit from a narrower stance and a much narrower grip? I know he's wide, but 'cmon Email him and let him know. Maybe if he then pulls 470kg or even 500kg he'll dedicate it to you. Or maybe Brian Shaw, maybe knows a thing or two about lifting up Heavy s**t. | ||

This however, is laregly due to handsize. His grip is very strong but strongest in the world i think no. SICK deadlift!! | ||
