Thors lift was so clean. It looked like he had more in the tank. I believe i heard Eddie say that in practice he never go over 470 or something like that. He just couldn't. And i think Thor did the 501 or at least 500 in practice before this.

i bet eddie couldve done 501 aswell probably even 502 if the previous record was 501 already.

thats was just such a L move from the Mountain. I would have respected it more if he just went for the 500 and not that little pity 1kg extra. Disrespecting move imo

one is more gifted, one is more determined.

Thors better not to mention he pulled 515 kg days before and kept it under the radar.

These guys could rip someones arm out of their socket

Thor is god

Thors is questionable, in his own gym, no proper governing body, no one outside the people in his team measuring weights and all the same company setting everything up. He may of been able to lift the weight but eddies is WAY more clear cut

These fellas getting pretty close to my lateral raise pr 😅

Fact: the man who can lift 500kg also can lift 1 to 2 kg more

One was done during a proper competition and one was done in a home gym where they could have as much rest as they like, hardly a fair comparions is it?

Thor locked out properly, Eddie was knees bent a bit and shaking like Michael J Fox.

Everything comes down to the apparent question. If Thor could lift 501 kg, then why didn't he do it in an international competition like eddie did? Then nobody would put ❓ on the actual lift. Its as simple as that.

Holy shit this was 4 years ago already wtf

Hafthor 501kg ain official though, Eddie is still the goat at deadlifting.

Left , Eddie in front of 10k people in a Championship ,right, in a studio ,screaming and dreaming to beat Eddie Record, Thor in a studio "beat" the record by 1kg😂 Why he dont do that in a Championship like Eddie?

501* don’t forget the asterisk.

imo eddie’s is more impressive. He held it for much longer

Both men are beasts, but Thor is a bigger specimen.

Eddies lift was 1000x more epic

Both of these lifts are incredibly impressive feats, really pushing the boundaries of what the human body can do. Eddie set the bar by lifting 500kg in 2016, while Thor took four years to surpass that record.

Eddie is like " it may kill me but first it gonna lift "

Eddie was smiling with the thing while Thor was already cheering

Eddie then went ahead and said that it wasn't healthy to lift that much weight. Dude, you hold it for longer than I held my grudge against my father...

Thors deadlift will never count. Has to be done in a competition. Daddy weighing his weights it's bullshit.

That’s nothing I moved my classmate’s chairs and desks

sorry but eddie win for sure this Versus

dope

Eddie's was legit. Thor's has some sketchy issues.

thors is more impresive becus he is taller

Who's the strongest? - Eddie has a tattoo that answers that question🤣🤣🤣 Also, being tall, Thor has to move the weight further than Eddie, and expend more energy (work energy = force x distance).

I like both of them, Hafthor just has more physical talent, but Eddie has the mind of a savage. If Eddie had thors physical talent or Hafthor eddies mindset i think the world record would be 510kg or 520kg. Respect for Eddie for being a pioneer and respect for Hafhtor for having the world record even if its only by 1kg

The reality is that Thor would not have even attempted 500kg or above had Eddie not done it first. Eddie showed us it was possible and other people followed after that because of the hope he had given them.

I will always have much more respect for Eddie's lift, immense fear of strength and truly pushing the human body to its limits.

Now we need a 502kg deadlift I wonder who will do it next?

Im not sure i trust the 501 kg deadlift

Thor did it a tiny bit faster and Eddie maintained the weight more than twice the time --> Eddie's lift more impressive imo

Man I just feel bad that unlike usually in strongman the last lifts created beef

eddie was dehydrated

Wth. This is insane

Here’s Thor’s real 501kg attempt ru-vid.comFdDcLQRPRSg?si=9ifcTQkXgg_9KVwh What changed between that attempt and the one in this video? Why was he able to do it so easily at his home gym?

Eddie lift 500kg in international competion vs Thor lift 501kg in his own home gym😂😂😅 I think there is a lot of difference.

Honestly I don't think they should allow world record attempts at home gyms at all. I don't think they cheated I just think it's such a big moment that it should be done in front of live audiences with world class broadcasting. That's why Eddies lift had so much bigger off an impact. Not to mention he was the 1st in history to do it. Many will follow and the record will be broken again and again. But to be the 1st to hit 500 is like being the 1st man (Bob Hayes) to run Sub 10 seconds on a 100m. Yes many broke his record since but he will always be the one who showed what could be possible as people believed it to be impossible. Same sotry with Eddies 500. He showed that it is indeed possible after many believed it to be impossible
