Why is he making such a big deal over a gym PR?
Why is he making such a big deal over a gym PR?
Him breaking the WR is like if another sprinter broke Usain's 100m record at some random amateur track out of competition.
It doesn't count.
being on game of thrones went to his head
It's not like that at all.
He is just lifting something no-one else ever has.
If someone ran faster than Bolt but not at a comp then the sprinter would have run faster than anyone else has?
How is it not the same.
Because their are a lot of specific conditions for running that would have to be taken into account.
This does not apply to lifting something. As long as someone else is present to verify the weight and it is being filmed, he gets the World Record.
In every sport ever the narrative is
"it doesn't matter what you do in training, it's what you do in competition, with the pressure of the cameras, the crowd and the competitors that matter."
In EVERY sport you will find a clip of someone saying this.
But now that it's game of normies golden boy doing it, everyone is defending him.
Yes Eddie Hall is a little faggot and his lift, while impressive, has been over hyped by himself, does not give hafthor a free go at a home WR.
The only reason this is being allowed is because espn has nothing to make money off of and is throwing money at everyone and fueling the controversy.
>This does not apply to lifting something
Yes, it does. In comp you have to go out and lift when they tell you, ready or not. Thor can take breaks whenever he wants. And then there's the lack of a crowd.
he wants to get paid
>"it doesn't matter what you do in training, it's what you do in competition, with the pressure of the cameras, the crowd and the competitors that matter."
Who the fuck has ever said that in regards to lifting? I don't think anybody has ever said that ever. Yeah, nobody gives a shit about a UFC fighter punching a bag at home. That's obvious. But are you saying that if the planned "fanless" UFC fights occured, with only the 2 fighters and the ref present, it wouldn't be a real fight? You don't think it should count?
Who gives a shit. He lifted more than anybody else in history. This is a fact. If it makes you happy, there can be a compromise:
Eddie is known for having the heaviest deadlift in front of a crowd, and Halfthor is known for having the heaviest deadlift in history.
Hes still assmad about wsm 2017, and he wont be satisfied until he breaks all of eddies records.
that is an absolutely terrible comparison
can you fucks stop acting like 14 years old calling people names, since this shit started on Yas Forums, this place is like 2nd grade.
>waaaaah lifter A does that he's such a faggot
>n-n-noooo lifter B is such a fagot
I'm so happy when all this drama is over, like who gives a shit, go and concentrate on your 1/2/3/4 instead
Ed Coan and Dave Tate off the top of my head. The "record" is going to have a big fat fuckin asterisk on it for the rest of his life.
Yas Forums is the Yas Forums of sports , it is equally gay , do not expect better because it cannot be.
You clearly don't watch much sport if you have never heard that.
And that is a terrible comparison.
If all the strongmen got together and had a comp amid this it would count, as it stands its a fucking joke, and the only reason it's allowed is because no other sport is on, and due to hafthors popularity.
Imagine coping this hard
Attention whore roided loser
Basically this.
Droopy faced fucker wont be happy until he gets one over on eddie.
If he does lift it i hope hall comes back and does 510 or something
>and his lift, while impressive, has been over hyped by himself
u wot m8
thor says hes going to lift 520 now
That aint gonna happen unless the suit hes wearing adds 40kg or hes eating magic beans.
Big Z and Brian said the same thing, retard.
What does a wr have to do with a sport event? Literally the only requirements are the approval of an official judge and proof of it happening, you are just coping because he isn't doing it the way you like it.
Yeah but Brian's a MASSIVE racist, to the point where it makes a Yas Forumstard seem normal
What does that have to do with Thor? He's as white as they come.
10-15 people will have done it by 2030 guaranteed.
It's a strongman WR, which is always done in competition.
Yes it will be a WR, but it should never be regarded as a strongman feat. Strongman IS a sport and should be treated as one.
Take breaks? He's going to lift something once?
I have a WR in 24 star one shoeless keyboard on head Mario 64 on emulator.
Doesn't mean shit.
Do you think he's just going to come out and pull 501kg cold, you stupid fuck? He's got ramp up to it first. And he has 3 attempts. In comp you do your attempt when the judges say, while Thor can do them whenever he's ready.
He'll have to do axel press too then.
Other than that what does Eddie even actually have? His etire claim to fame was the 500,
In one of the videos he just put out you can see "507 pb" on the whiteboard in the background. He's probably cleared 500 now and wants to truly fuck Eddie by jumping the bar higher because everyone was calling him a pussy for just adding 1kg when Eddie added like 40kg when he did it.
