His other abilities outshone the powerlifting numbers other than his obviously monumental deadlift thats why i said loz over terry. im not sure wot terrys best squat is, but i know loz is stronger statically overall 3 squat, press, pull. | ||

AKA the great reset Member 4056, 5206 posts | Both Loz and Terry are great strongman. Britain is producing some very good ones. Graham is very strong for his size. i have saw a good few videos of him on youtube. 200 log at his bodyweight is awesome | ||

He was cool. I remember them doing weight for height in those days and seem to think he was good at it. Early 90s? | ||

Also farmers weren't about how heavy you can go, they were about speed and grip. I doubt he would be able to pick up a modern heavy farmers | ||
