He is an animal in doubles for sure. No question. Probably the best doubles bender right now. But the mechanics of a un-cut gold nail in singles is a world of difference from what he bent here.

As a very curious non-bender, what or more precisely how, exactly is the advantage of a shorter cut nail?.

From the outside looking in, one would think a longer nail would offer more leverage not less.

Either way, this was a true feat of strength. I would love to know more about Mr. Kirillov"s personal bio. Also, I am always wondering if he does those videos from some sort of store or machine shop?

Either way he sure looks like a relaxed animal when he bent that gold!

Longer is more leverage to a certain point when it then becomes mechanically disadvantageous to kink. A 6" Red Nail is easier for me to kink then a 7", though after 30 degrees then becomes more challenging.

His crush is strong for sure, and he seems to be a massive DO bender also!

He did a good job in this bar, congrats for that.

But why should this bar be compairable with a gold nail?? I have not understand the spoken words ( russian?). Not the same diameter, and lengh. Mabe a harder steel???

Kirillov is a very powerful bender in double wraps, but the rod is not a replica of the "IM Gold Nail", is a group of sports bars St. Petersburg, has parameters CRS ​​9 mm, and 7" length will be around 600 lbs! Kirillov bend Iron Grip bar 250 kg, but did not want to get on the list!

Thank Alex for explaining!

I was a little confused about the word "replica".

Ist 9mm crs bar ok!

With a 250Kg irongrip bar, he should be in KOAB area!

Superb bend, but like some of the others mentioned, not a Gold nail. The Gold nail is a hair over 9.5mm thick.
