Squeezus Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 (edited) I wanted to make a thread to collect some of the most ridiculous grip feats (not necessarily strongest) we've ever seen. A favorite one that comes to mind for me is Ben Edwards' TNS close on a #3 covered in vegetable oil. What else y'all got? Post video's if you got em!

KapMan Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Pretty much any Mega heavy key pinch, especially shallow hub and stub. So thats really two people Mr. Bloom and Mr. GG imo Don’s 100 or whatever it was red bends is pretty effin ridiculous. That inch hot potato by the prodigal son and king lobster I never witnessed it personally but Scott A Vincent’s full deck of 100% plastic cards in a hour and his 16 Piece chunk of a full deck of regular cards. Robert Nejdley’s heavy horseshoe bends weighing as much as bargin bin beef is eye popping. Joe sully’s 20+ lb lever, form wasnt perfect but id like to see one person do his hammer feats. They are intense. thats off the top of my head. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinnie Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 I know Tim Butler ripped a deck of cards soaked in dish soap, which seems to me like a similar feat to the oily COC lol. @temmmeeee - wanna post that? I think it was in a medley of card tearing feats but that was the weirdest of them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squeezus Posted February 12, 2020 Author Share Posted February 12, 2020 I remembered another. @kodyburns has done a ton of crazy stuff before, but I'll never forget watching him do this ~20s double 2x20kg Eleiko hold after winning the Living Legends contest. I remember thinking "why won't he set them down, isn't he tired?" Having trained with him on a few occasions, the answer is "Kody doesn't get tired". 5 Quote 2020 Goals: Red Nail 3/11/20 (bent under cert conditions, still waiting to be assigned judge for cert) Bastard 3/21/20, Golden Bastard 4/25/20 MM5 MM3 & MM4 Offhand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donc101 Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Absolutely ridiculous was Scott St Vincent tearing a deck of cards on fire. I looked but could not find his video. After watching it, the feat got stuck in my mind and I had to try it. I had to do it 3x. The first time my wife said the flames were not big enough to look cool. The second time they were big enough but she messed up the video and it did not record. A feat I am happy I did but will probably never do again. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Rinderle Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Don bending over 100 red nails is the crasiest bending feat. Nothing else is close. Grip wise, there have been so many craxzy feats, it is hard to pick just one. If I was forced to pick a single feat, I'd have to say Storm Chelino recently doing a thumbless double Inch farmers walk would be the current #1. That's just otherworldly. 5 Quote This grip stuff will make you a god damned sexual Tyrannosaurus, just like me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squeezus Posted February 13, 2020 Author Share Posted February 13, 2020 @Donc101 I don't think anyone hates anybody as much as you hate your hands, lol.

Cannon Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 There is a Kody feat I know I saw on video and have not been able to find it again. I think it was post-contest screwing around and he was toying with 2x35s. Like spinning them 180 in mid-air and catching them again with the same hand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Jack Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 (edited) Chad Woodall farmers walking two old school York deep-dish plates in each hand for 9 feet. I am pretty sure that there is only video evidence of one other human being that has ever even done a double lift, much less a farmer's walk.

Jesse Pinonen might be able to walk with them if he had access to two pair. Yeah, Jedd was the other human I was referencing in the original post doing the double. 1 Quote “You don't drown by falling in the water; you drown by staying there.” Edwin Louise Cole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
