Would Shaw still want to compete if it's 465 then 500? If he doesn't think 500 is happening he would only be going to pull 465 with a bunch of others

I really don't see what the problem is...let Eddie and Benni skip 475kg and let the others do it.

I've just messaged giants live on Facebook asking if the plan is to go from 465 straight to 500.

What's the chance of me getting a reply.....

So unless someone pulls 500 (which they won't) and brings the roof off that arena, this event really does have the potential to be dogs**te.
Which is a crazy thing to say given that 2 or 3 could tie for a new wr.

This is what needs to happen.

Why not do 465, then go up 5-10kg each time, until everyone has failed..

Ed and Benni can sit out after 465, then attempt 500.

Think people are over estimating how much will be lifted only hall and shaw will do 465 and hall will do 500. No 1 else will do over 460. Just like the log lift challenge when people thought it would go over 230 and ended up at 211

The reason why is that Eddie wont want to save himself for 500, not get it and lose his record because Shaw did a 480. It's all about nursing those ego's. The ridiculous thing is that Eddie would have a chance to take that WR back at WSM a few months later anyway.

Competitions need to be more proffesional by not pandering to athletes like this. Decide on the events and then just tell the athletes whats happening. If they don't want to compete then they don't compete.

I tend to agree with this, not sure how much has been demaded by the athletes, but this is clearly tailored to stroke 1 man's ego.

You don't think Benni or Pritchett are capable of pulling over 460 ? Or Terry for that matter ?

From what I've seen in the vids Eds the one pushing it to jump from 465 to 500 to give it the best chance of happening. As he said no ones going to do 3/4 lifts over 450 then have any chance of pulling 500.
I think they're doing it to give the best possible chance of 500 been pulled but are putting all their eggs in one basket by doing it as like others say it will be a bit of an anticlimax if 3/4 people finish joint on a world record.
Then again I guess it gives them the biggest stage of all to break it again at wsm final.
Either way it's going to be a brilliant night and an amazing atmosphere and I can't f**king wait to go
