Years ago there was a thread somewhere where there was maybe 3 really bizarre events that were being considered with concept sketches i think one of them used some like centrifugal force or something similar anyone know where the thread went?

I still think at the Arnold they should have the Anderson Squat.

Have them go from around parallel from the bottom position, have them on an adjustable height stand...have the catch boxes wider for safety. Would happily swap it for elephant bar deadlift.

One of them involved water being added to a deadlift and another was to do with washing machines being swung around. I’m sure I haven’t imagined it.

Yes, think it was a dead lift hold type thing with water being poured in. 2 of them were ridiculous, and 1 of them (the water one) was vaguely plausible. Struggling to find the thread.

I don't like this idea because how do you make it perfectly fair? A slight difference in starting height could make a significant difference.

I've continued to try, but it's proving as elusive as the squatch.

There was a dead lift event once with an Atlas Stone at each end of the bar that Terry H competed in.

I think I have a very very vague recollection of that as well.

You have a ref at the side that checks depth before the lift and gives the 'up' signal...actually much more fair than the squat at WSM.
