Mike Rinderle Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 World record total but only an American Record because it wasn't Worlds or Nationals I believe. Just missed final DL, which would have given him 2500 lbs.   1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannon Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 When you get called on 1052 and go for 1080 anyway holy moly  And he came out of the hole with 1080 faster than I can get off the couch. Unreal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Climber028 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Someday I might get my total up to his squat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devinhoo Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Holy smokes. That's incredible. I was really thinking that Hafþór Björnsson would break 2500 lbs with his total on the meet he hosted. I'm sure the 2.5k total will be broken in the next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricMilfeld Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 His lifting is unfathomable. IPF world records must be set exclusively at one of their world championship meets.  I think that was a common sense move. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Rinderle Posted March 4, 2019 Author Share Posted March 4, 2019 Tough to judge much from this camera angle, but man, he is right on the line on squat depth. Would hate to judge the big fella.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Piche Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 With the platform being dark like that with a dark singlet, I would guess it's harder to see for the judges? I always think the dude squats high. Of course this is a video view so..... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, the light show was cool, but I don't know why they didn't bring the lights up all the way for the attempt. Really weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. Hey, let's judge an American Record attempt in the dark with weird light flashing. Stupid if you ask me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric, Doesn't have to be a World Championship but it must be an International Meet (under IPF definition)...ie. you can set World Records at Continental Championship Meets, amongst certain others.  Chris Edited March 10, 2019 by The Mac 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
