Hafthor's signature form is to shift his hips to the right, his upper body turns left and his right shoulder dips slightly, and his right side does most of the work. When he fails a pull his right foot skips out. Can he do a WR pull with this much of an imbalance? Will Eddie have the last laugh?
Will Hafthor fail the 501 pull?

Fuck I never noticed that, looks uneven for sure.
his form has always been trash , most of the WSM guys do because they're so fat and have 0 flexibility
I would laugh if he snapped so hard his limp body crumpled to the ground like a sack of potatoes.
Can't find good footage of Eddie's WR to compare form, but Eddie's Arnold DL from 2015 looked damn good.
I never thought I'd say it, but Eddie's record will probably stay or Thor will snap himself for the WR.
Thor uses a lot of speed/power in his deadlift. You don't often see him pull a really slow grinder. 501kg isn't going to be fast and that's where it might get hard for him. I still think he'll do it but people acting like it's a for-sure thing are really underestimating what a monumental feat 500kg really is

I've been trying to watch Eddie's form for imbalances, but he was so fucking fat in his time it's hard to even see what's going on. So far I haven't noticed anything, and he's always performed better in static lifts as well.
yep
You shouldnt be worried about the 500, but a serious attempt at 520 is asking for a prolapsed anus
>Thor weighs 190kg
>501 and 520 are 2.6 and 2.75x BW pulls for him, respectively
Can you DL 2.5x BW? A 150lb person pulling 4pl8 is lifting relatively the same amount.
Eddie's 470 at WSM looked much easier than Thor's. I think Thor is in trouble.
He ripped 470 like nothing. I think he’s pulled 490-500 off camera otherwise he wouldn’t talk so much shit
That’s not how it works. It doesn’t scale linearly
It doesnt scale like that, the heavier you are the lower your ratio will be, as you run into diminishing returns. That being said i dont think that he will blackout like eddie, but tears or snap city can happen to anybody.
Even if he's strong enough it'll only take a tiny fuck up at those weights for him to miss the lift.
He's going to get it. 470kg in training was way too easy.
Hes deceptively fast, watch the 472kg attempt in 2017 wsm, he pulls it off the floor fast , but gets stuck at his knees.
>2017
That was three whole years ago mate
Read , its about his motor pattern, not what weight hes pulling.
Spaghetti bar
>Claiming he can do 520
>Claiming he can do 530
Is Thor just crazy? Does he just not give a flying fuck?
>Thor guessing Eddie's height at 6'5
Nah, he's already done it in training. I'm 100% convinced of this.
>brainlets
Great head of hair
How do you watch this in none-muttica?
>britbong taking halls side
Shocker.
Those are some impressive punches from Eddie. I'd be worried if I was Thor desu
Is there some sort of research done at why 520kg is the max or is this bro science?
He's probably pulled 500 off camera, without refs and is confident he can go higher.
