Meanwhile in Australia …
This happened at the 2014 Giants Live Strongman competition in Melbourne.
Benedikt Magnusson got a 445kg Deadlift with straps.
Note: He did this Deadlift after the Farmer’s Walk event.
Will we see a 460kg+ Deadlift this year?
Update 12.03.2014: Looks like Benni tore a biceps …
Hafthor Bjornsson got 420kg (of even 430 by some reports)
Is Magnusson lighter than when he did 460 ?
he looks lighter.
Benni also seems to avoid deadlifting heavy these days. He only went for the 445 because Thor put it in as his next attempt
