1. Must lift to full deadlift position.

2. Only chalk allowed.

3. The lift must be followed down under reasonable control.

what are rules for the lift?

"A lot of men train to be pretty, I train to be the strongest man in the world, then again I'm already pretty." -Magnus Samuelsson

"You don't have to be fat to be strong!" - Svend Karlsen

"I know it doesn't just come from playing with yourself" - Svend Karlsen talking to Magnus Samuelsson about closing the COC #4.

"Everybody pulls for David, nobody roots for Goliath" - Wilt Chamberlain

Borderline case but i say it was "under reasonable control".

If he didn't catch it, it might have caused damage to the driveway or weight. I say it was under reasonable control

The "catch" at the very end is simply a habit pinchers acquire...particularly if they lift other than over heavy rubber mats.

With the superhigh lift and "hold" at the top, it's clear that he has the lift dominated.

That said, I can see voting either way depending how you interpret rule #3.

Frankly I see no real point in having him resubmit a video for a lift that he obviously had no problem with.
