I’ve just seen a giants live video where Benni claims he’s going to lift 528kg... I assume at the deadlift championship.

I like B, but has he been smoking the good stuff?

Thoughts?

Either a joke or Benni has finally lost it. He's a great lifter, but he will never pull over 500.

He has lifted some big weights a fair few months out.

I think i read the last 500 attempt he got injured in the run-up, but we will see.

I think he will definitely get that 470ish deadlift...so will attempt 501. I hope Brian Shaw gets the 470ish and doesn't even attempt 501.

Brian's not doing it as worlds is coming up pretty soon.

World's in June, deadlift champs in July. From what I've read he is doing it.

I Benni had continued training after he did his 462 strapless (still unbeaten) all-time deadlift record, I have no doubt that he would have gone over 500 at some point. He randomly had a go at 500 strapless in a PL competition years ago and did at least break it off the floor.

Fair enough. Heard otherwise and he hasn't been on any advertisements I've seen but hope he does do it.

Benni won't come anywhere near that. Nobody does...

The problem here for me, is that even though Benni has the fame of that big powerlifting dead all those years ago, he still doesn't have the X Factor like Eddie does.

People are not going to buy tickets based off of Benni's claims, where as people wanted to see Eddie pull 500.

Benni has not really looked close to his best for years either, and despite some big strongman pulls, he doesn't look like he can do it.
