IT HAPPENED: Krzysztof Wierzbicki Deadlifts 502.5 kg From The Floor 

The guy deserves to have his name in the video title at least

Damn. He's a monster. Kilo plates. Just straps. He is currently my favorite deadlifter. It was yuri but that goes to him now. Crazy impressive. Especially at that "body weight." Cause he looks massive.

You made a small mistake in the video: Krzysztof does weigh over 105kg now. He did mention in few meets in poland that he's going to gain weight to compete in 125kg class. Last time I've heard his bodyweight was around 112kg. That's fucking impressive lift and we'll probably see more from him if he really is bulking

The select few elite guys who are pulling these high 400+ kg sumo deadlifts have two things in common. The first is obviously extreme strength, but the second is amazing leverages. At the point where the weight leaves the ground, their thighs and back are both nearly vertical, creating a highly advantageous starting position resembling something similar to that of a rack pull. From this position, my theory is a huge weight can be pulled without requiring as much so-called "brute strength" displayed by strongmen. Look at Eddie's 500 kg and Thor's 501 kg. These lifts were done through brute strength, from man mountains weighing close to double these guys. Thor in fact doesn't have great leverages, standing at 6'9". No doubt their static power is greater than these elite sumo pullers, but the sumo pullers can take advantage of leverages to match their deadlifts. No hate, just my two cents.

This is insane, you can see how much it means to him too. The crazy part is how it looked there was more left in him.

I was happy pulling a new pr of 200kg conventional today. Now i see this lmfao

Geeze and that lockout looked on point too. What a freaking monster.

The lockout looks 💯 With hookgrip is a whole other animal but still super impressive.

I'm happy to be alive. Being able to see this just fills me with so much happiness.

Crazy feat of strength. Can’t wait to see how far the sumo with straps record can go.

Sumo really needs to be put into a category all of its own, not lumped in with "deadlifts". Conventional is called Conventional because it's just that. That's the base correct way of performing the lift. Sumo is, and should be regarded to, as something else entirely. Major props to this guy still though, not trying to take anything away from this insane feat of strength

I’mma be back in 12-24 hours for the salt.

This comment section just shows that no matter what you do, there will always be someone trying to downplay your achievements

Where did he lift? Need to know the exact strength of the gravitational field to compare with Thor's 4921.2N lift in high-gravity Iceland. Field needs to be 9.7935 m/s^2 or greater to be a superior pull.

lmaooo man just pulled 502.5kg at a bodyweight of under 110kg and some pricks in the comment section still have the audacity to nit-pick and criticize. Why can't you just simply accept the fact that this was beyond impressive, praise the man, and leave it at that? sumo or conventional, it doesn't make the weight any lighter, 502.5kg will remain 502.5kg

All Poland is proud of him

can't wait for the mental gymnastics to downplay this lift because it isn't Jamal or conventional lol absolutely amazing. 1000+ only 10 years ago was nearly impossible by even the heaviest strongmen. Now, you have a handful of guys half their weight pulling above that and still pushing those numbers up. What's even crazier is that this was a solid lift with 0 stalling and I think he has even more in him

The ROM is the same than the hummer tire deadlift, or even less. HT deaflift record stands at 524kg

The sumo wars are way more interesting than the Deadlift World Championships these days. Wierzbicki, Jamal, Grigsby etc.

I wish he had a RU-vid channel or something because he’s clearly the best sumo lifter rn. I’d love to learn from him

I feel like I'm just starting to wrap my head around grigsby world record! It has been a crazy month for deadlifts!!

This is definite proof that sumo is easier than conventional !

Feeling so proud he is my compatriot

Whatever we say .. official or unofficial, these are 502.5 fucking kilos !! Huge respect !!

thats insane, even if its sumo its still one of the greatest deadlifts of all time edit: does he even have a belt??

That Kabuki bar is going to make a 1200 lb deadlift possible. Side note, but Krzysztof is looking mighty juicy here

Well done Krzysztof Wierzbicki. Polish Power 🔥💪🏻 Who gonna be next now?? 🏋🏻‍♂️🥇🏆

He doesn't even weigh 100kg, he competes at U100kg in RAW and was even competing at U93kg in IPF not so far back. This is >5 times bodyweight, making him the heaviest lifter to pull >5x bodyweight as well as the heaviest pull ever.

It ain't no deadlift if it ain't conventional.

The best part was what came after the lift ⚘

Don't be surprised if Jamal drops a video lifting 500KG in straps now.

This is the start of a new Era. Watch many more follow this guy

I knew it was coming but I still can't believe my eyes

Thank your for having Krzysztof on your channel. He deserves more recognition though

Damn that is insane

you have very long hands,its best for dead lift,respect

This guy's leverages are insane! That was one smooth pull.

Letsgoooo!!

That's impressive AF it also looked like there was more in the tank

People shouldn't even compare sumo to conventional. They are completely different. We need to have separate meets for sumo and conventional deadlifts.

greatest lift i have ever seen in my entire life

This is actually incredible. I didn't even think it was possible someone this light could lift that much, it's absurd. Epic as hell

imagine when people were excited when Thor pulled 2.5x his weight, and now they have audacity to criticize when Krzysztof pulling almost 5x his weight

Impressive, absolutly yes. But, the bend in that bar + sumo + being shorter than both eddie and halftor is huge factors to consider when they are all present at once. The full weights dont leave the ground until his hands are just about parallel to his knees. You can go and look at both eddies and halftors lifts and youll see the difference in bend and rom.

Closer to the silver dollar deadlift than an actual deadlift when the bar had so much whip/sumo that you only need to pull 2 inches

What a monster when he pulls it up and locks it look at his shoulders just insane much respect for him

There was so much bend in the bar, it looked like a partial 😉

Krzysztof Wierzbicki ^ Put this in the title!

Am I in favor of sumo and conventionnal being somewhat 2 different lifts ? Yes I am. But holly shit that's impressive nonetheless

This a level of power I didn't thought was posible until now, this guy has to be part saiyan or something

This is ridiculous! The guy is like half of Thor’s bodyweight AND he did it RAW. Holy shit. Polish Power is a real thing lol.

So this is unofficially the new world record right?I called this guy would break the record one day a bit over two years ago and am very happy for him

How lol, i wanna see this in comp, its hard to believe honestly

People saying Sumo is cheating, I'd say yes it's easier but do ppl not realize this guy is way lighter than Eddie and Hafthor who were like 350-400 lbs bodyweight lol.

Are we calling deadlifts with straps raw now?

This is impressive, hope this encourages more people will do raw deadlifts.

This is not a deadlift

Hope to see him start his boxing career soon!

It doesn't count, because sumo is illegal in strongman and wrist straps are illegal in powerlifting

How tf did I miss this last year

Getting kinda tired of these lifts tbh. There's only like 4 inch rom with full load on the bar. Partial deadlift in stronman even have alot more range of motion. Although this is still an insane feat of strength, i'd rather compare it with lifts such as aleksi novikovs partial deadlift of 1185 pounds, ronnies 2300lbs leg press or Nick best's 2791lb carrousel lift. The stiff bar should be the only bar that is allowed in competion. It's kinda ironic that powerlifting is one of the (if not the) sport with the highest potential of competitors in the world and yet is unable to grow. Most of the federations just have ridiculous (lack of) rules which make the sport irrelevant for the general public

Incredible, massive kudos.

Great stuff, thanks for posting 😊

Wait a minute. 6 months ago, he set the world record competition sumo at 450 kgs with belt and single-ply suit. 6 months later. He pulls 503 without belt or suit but in his gym? Hello? He already passed his own world record by 50 kgs but didn't do it in competition yet? Just because of straps? He's missing 50+ kgs on his deadlift because of lack of grip training? No. This doesn't add up.

Does anyone know how much he can lift conventional?

sumo is not the same as conventional. No matter how hard you force it. Eddie Hall/Thor still hold the record for 500kg. Still very impressive though

POLSKA GÓÓÓROM!!!!

I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE THIS CHANNEL CAME FROM, BUT I LOVE THE FACT THAT I HAVE LIFTING NEWS ON RU-vid

Wtf that's insane. No belt, feet fairly close for sumo and he didn't even bother to pull it at some kind of event

That is.... Impossible I can't believe this was a RAW lift And he's under 105kg...

Eddie goes to the black hole with his mind telepathically murdering the judge then collapses into the void while Kryzstof (man half size of Eddie) goes suit-less, belt-less and occasionally does the heaviest deadlift ever.

A tiny part of me wants to rag on the bendy bar, but that pull was so clean that there's nothing to do but admire. What a beast

Polska góra!😁

compact physique for such strength,crazy!,he can be an mma fighter with that physique

BRO ITS INSANE

Absolutely unreal. I wish there were a comp that allowed this type of pull - "get as much weight off the floor as possible any way you want to pull it".

Thats insane

Remember that Krzysztof Wierzbicki is just a bit over 100kg own weight while most of other who guys are 150kg-200kg range with Haftor being roughly 200kg when he broke his record. I want to see Haftor sumo deadlift at least 600kg then we can go back to discussion as for now Wierzbicki is clearly the strongest man on earth according to mass.

Incredible lift that we will put in the proper category to compare to all other feats of strength as: Sumo - ✅ Straps - ✅ Deadlift Bar - ✅ In Training - ✅ Other stuff - ✅

Holy shit.....we've just witnessed an Alien being

Wow insane 😱

Eddie Hall - Looks like there's another boxing match I have to schedule.

Raw? RAWWW? This dude is a beast

HOLY SMOKES!

Polska siła 💪

To the people saying its easier sumo, try loading up a bar with 500kg in a rack and shift it half a mm. The bar probably wouldn’t bend

When I started powerlifting Krzystof was pulling over 400 already. I'm very happy to see he was the one to break the 500kg barrier first.

That bar flex aint a joke

He also possess the third heaviest deadlift in history raw

funniest part is that your still gonna get people on tiktok saying "this is why you dont skip leg day" if they see him doing anything other than legs

SUMO doesn't count this is ridiculous

Guy breaks eddies record Eddie: hold my water

But he used straps so it's not technically raw

holy bro thats insane

POLAND MOUNTAIN

He might have the strongest tendons known to man. I can’t imagine what over 1100 pounds feels like. That’s just ridiculous

Considering even Heinla couldn’t pull this sumo and he trained it to where it’s stronger than his conventional, I wonder what the Conventional/Strongman fanboys will say now.

The weight is literally 6 inches from the ground in lock out. WHAT A JOKE

Strong, but still think that a 400 kg conventional deadlift on a power bar is more impressive

Very impressive wonder what his Conventional is compared to his sumo. He has some sick leverages with sumo
