antarath Posted April 12, 2007 Posted April 12, 2007 (edited) Yup, what the title says. Was supposed to see how the quality of the video was in that room. The light etc. Can only kink that bar the WSM style. It's one heck of a tough bar.

tspinillo Posted April 12, 2007 Posted April 12, 2007 That is a thick bar! Well done! Quote Awaiting reprisal. Proud Blob50 parent.
nickr104 Posted April 12, 2007 Posted April 12, 2007 Nice bend. I would be very careful bending it into your body like that. One slip and very bad things. Quote Nick RosendaulI am a Upser"I slept with John Eaton and lived to tell about it!"

DAN PRAYDIS Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 NICE BENDING THERE Quote JUST BECAUSE ITS NOT ALIVE * DOESN'T MEAN ITS DEAD
Tim71 Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 Man that is awesome! When I went from a 46 inch 3/4 inch bar to a 44 incher the difference felt downright painful to me. I can't immagine a 37.5. Not to mention haven't you done a 35 before? Oh yeah if you can even put a kink in that bar over your head then you are something else my friend. I've made a partial bend in a 40 inch bar but I've never even offended a 36 incher. That's just amazing. You should try the 3/4 square. With your strength you might get it and that would be an awesome looking bend at 4 foot. Kills my hands to even try it though. Keep em coming! With your strength you may actually get that #8 horseshoe someday. Tim Quote
jaccord Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 Nice bend. I would be very careful bending it into your body like that. One slip and very bad things. I was thinking the same thing about a possible slippage... but looks like you've done it before. Nice work Mats Erik. Quote
Booyah!!! Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 Looks like fun Mats Erik!!! Very Strong!!! Oh, Great Video Quote I Love Bending Steel http://www.youtube.com/user/booyahbender

Alawadhi Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 (edited) That's a thick bar. Well done! but why did you bent it braced?

antarath Posted April 13, 2007 Author Posted April 13, 2007 Thanks for the comments! Yeah, putting the bar on the chest like that is nuts. Did one last week without putting it to my chest. That was one of the 35" Tim mentioned, so the answer to you Tim is "yes" hehehe Nearly fainted after it. There's another member of this board who has a longbar bend video on youtube. He put it in the crotch. That's probably the last place I would put it hah I'd be honoured Gator! Mats Quote Real name: Mats Erik Engelsvoll
dimmers Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 Only just watched your vid! Great bend!!! scary moments when you bent it on your chest, but you got it in the end, congrats! Quote
gazza Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 Mats Thats very IMPRESSIVE congrats my friend Quote "There he goes. One of gods own prototypes. A high powered mutant of some kind never ever considered for mass production.Too weird to live and too rare to die."
GatorGrip Posted April 15, 2007 Posted April 15, 2007 (edited) Okay you Norwegian Long Bar Powerhouse Your are now a star on www.strongmanfeats.com just go to Feats of Strength , click it and you will see your clip among a growing list of impressive men of strength. As for you other men of strength out there if you have a particularly impressive feat of strength you do or have done on video Pm me and we can discuss the particulars of what to do next. Like Emilio Estevez as Billy the Kid in the movie Young Guns says “ I’LL MAKE YOU FAMOUS ” -lol --- This FOS video library is a way to demonstrate and preserve impressive feats of strength while giving the performer some positive recognition for their hard work getting there.

antarath Posted April 15, 2007 Author Posted April 15, 2007 Thanks you very much Walter!! Lots of great videos both on Feats of Strength and Kids of Strength! I hope to get more bars soon and hopefully make a shorter clip with not so much fuzz. As for now, my shoulders are a complete mess Thanks again! Mats Quote Real name: Mats Erik Engelsvoll
