WHAT A WAY TO SPEND A SUNDAY 🤙🏼I don't think i will ever see a 1.5. mile run like this ever again... heart of a lion and legs of a rhino 😂🤙🏼BIG thanks brother... let's do something easier next time, like another eating challenge and swim, 😂🤙🏼
Man I’m a 43 year old former pro fighter and only 200lbs takes me around 9.40 flat out going as hard as I can! Eddies in great shape for such a MASSIVE dude, plus his stubbornness is gonna serve him really well in combat sports!! 👍🏻
RamblinAround. To him iets normal because he is use to his weight. So iets the same like you jogging with your weight because you are also used to you weight
You can have a lot of visceral fat under the abs which is actually more dangerous for health issues than subcutaneus fat (which hangs and flops around). Also organ hypertrophy further expanding the gut pressing the abs outwards is a real thing in many ppl who's ever done steroids. I dunno if Eddie does/did em, but that's how it is. That being said it is impressive that a body of that size can be this functional.
Here’s something that can change your way of life or thinking. This is the most important thing you will hear/read today. If you’ve told one lie, stolen anything, or lusted (which is adultery of the heart), you’ll be found guilty on Judgment Day and end up in Hell. But there’s good news: Though we broke God’s Law, Jesus, the prophesied Messiah, perfectly kept the Law, fulfilling all righteousness. He paid the fine for sinners ( that we could never pay ) by suffering and dying on the cross-absorbing the wrath of God that we deserve. “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.” Then Jesus rose from the dead and was seen by hundreds of eyewitnesses. Today, repent and trust Jesus; God will grant you forgiveness and the gift of eternal life. God bless
Everything Eddie Hall does is impressive but the most impressive thing about him in my opinion is that he is brutally honest with himself. He gives 100% effort to EVERYTHING!
alfie picton he did lol , Thor’s dad is the one we’re trusting with the weights actually adding up to the world record value lol , the guy who has everything to gain from cheating helping his son win money and fame ... hence why Eddie doing it at a professional competition is the real record .
I'm a member of USAF Special Recon, and I have a couple things to say: 1) Great job Eddie! That is some tremendous strength!! 2) When doing sit-up, your arms must touch your legs within two inches of your knees. 3) When doing pull-ups, you cannot use your legs to increase vertical power (a.k.a. Kipping). 4) When doing the test sections, you cannot drink water. 5) The swim must only be Breaststroke or Combat Sidestroke. Thanks guys, great video!
@@backyardbadideas776 Ross and Eddie were comparable swimmers in their teens, the difference is one made a career as a strongman and one made a career as an endurance athlete with an emphasis on swimming.
Eddie could be a great motivator for endurance runs. "See that guy? If he gets you, he will eat you - better start running." Jokes aside, I'm very impressed by his run.
Ross: Navy Seal Eddie: Navy Walrus Edit: Wow! Didn’t expect this response! And now that after Ross I’m the top comment, maybe give the Royal Marines four day entry fitness test a go? ;)
Eddie puts out some of the best fitness content. I love the way he challenges himself with other disciplines and takes it in his stride always giving it 100%. Keep it up.
It's really interesting how Eddies immense strength enables him to do really advanced, heavy lifts but at the same time the muscle mass needed to do that makes normal exercises difficult.
This is a pretty standard thing in the military. Big, muscly dudes generally do not make good athletes or combat arms tradesmen. There are a few MOS' that require it, such as pallbearers, but that's extremely rare.
@@Soaptastesok im a weapons loader in the air force and having a big strong guy (at least 1 per 3-man crew) makes lifting 200lb missiles 7 feet in the air alot easier. Thats why I dont like how running focused the PT test is, my strength has quite literally saved 10s of thousands of dollars in damage from times ive had to support a missile slipping from someones hands/ keep a M61A1 vulcan from falling the gun bay and fucking up the wire harnesses/ hydraulic lines. I can max pushups and situps easily, but they are only worth 20 points while the run (useless in my job) is worth 60 points.
@@Soaptastesok Yeah the big muscles they have prevents them from being able to reach most of their back so reaching a magazine or anything in the very back would be very difficult.
Yeah, Ive seen a lot of big fucks run (at their top speed) so slow its at a jogging pace, specializing one's body type for a specific task is very important.
it's terrifying that the world strongest man is in better shape than expected. I was speechless when he ran that amazing time for 1.5 miles at his size.
In hs i was friends with a kid who cross county' he would pull and drag me after a long run.talking and laughing. I wanted to die.sad part i was in good shape. But could never run cross country
I think Eddie Hall is one of these guys who could turn his hand to pretty much anything physical. He's just got that "I will succeed or die trying" mentality.
@Just Some Guy without a Mustache to hell with you. You say those things about Israel without even knowing us. We could've easily made Israel a Jewish only country when the arab nations tried attacking us together in the six day war after 1948 but we have more than 2m arabs living in our country. What happens when you as a jew go into an arab town? You get assaulted, rocks are thrown at you and they're trying to kill. You think Israel are the one organising the attacks on Gaza and striking first? No. Hamas attacks us with a s**t load of missiles. The only reason we don't have thousands of dead people is the iron Dome and our military. Every assault on Gaza results in civilians dying because these basterds hamas use them as meat shield. Try visiting israel for once before judging. People here are welcoming and we have the most humane army in the world ( litterly we never give death penalties and never kill fckin terrorists). You think we're evil cause you have no idea about what's going on. I thought people would learn after the Holocaust that being antisemitic only results in death and begins a cycle of hatered. We just want to live in peace without recieving death threats from everyone. If the US weren't supporting us and our army wasn't powerful, Hitler's goal to exterminate Jews would've been accomplished accomplished. We desire peace. But you people judging us without having a clue is what stops it from happening. Mark my words: world war 3 is going to happen soon and it won't end until either Israel or the arab nations are dead and nobody wants to burry his brothers and family in the ground
When I was in high school, one of our phys-ed teachers was a retired Marine colonel. His name was Joe Molitoris. He was not only a great teacher but the best motivator I have ever met. I was a skinny 5 foot 10 inch 135 pounds but I was highly competitive and pound for pound one of the strongest kids in school. Thanks to coach Mol, our gym classes were tested against the Marine Corps physical fitness tests. Always wanting to be the best I looked up the requirements for passing, elite, and found the state records for high school students. When I got to sit-ups I saw that the record for 11th graders was 76 reps in 2 min. I was certain I could beat that and focused on owning that record. On the day of the sit-up test, we were told that 70 was a 100-point score. I told the coach I was going for the record and he said 76 reps in 2 min. is going to be tough, do you think you can do it? I told him I was doing 80 in practice and felt sure I can do it. When word got around, the gym started to fill up to see if this not-so-star athlete could do this. I was up first and was moving pretty well until around 60 I started cramping. It was all I could do to get 70 and score 100 points. I was so upset with myself that I asked the coach if I could try again by going last. That gave me around 30 min to stretch out the cramps. My classmates thought I was nuts because I already had 100 points. I just said "Because I can do 80 '. I did 80 reps with a few seconds left, but 80 was my wall.
Good story Michael. You should be proud of yourself for persevering. Did you call your teacher Colonel or Mr. Molitoris? I like to address retired officers as their rank as I think it shows respect.
At age of 14(8th grade) my cousin(2 years younger) and I went challenge mode. I was doing 100 press bends in one take(around 3:smth), 50 push-ups(hell knows how many time it took, I presume a bit more than 2 minutes), climbed to 15 pull-ups. Never made a run though. Even then, a 48 KG teenager of mine would literally die in attempt to do all the things within time, taking only 2 minutes rest in between! And we were some kind of "sporty" guys back then!
I swan with Eddie when I was younger. Can confirm he was a fucking beast. I was the fastest in the UK for my age ( I went on to compete in the olympics). Eddie wasnt much slower than me ad 2 years younger. Genetic freak
@@gerardohernandez7099 I saw him race when he was 11-13 and bigger than everyone his age by miles. Also remember him coming back at about 16 after a few years of him not racing looking about 25 years old haha
strongest man and the iron will to go above and beyond. mentality means everything and the fact he is willing to push when it comes to shove goes to show the true strength mentally as well. mad respect from kentucky. wish i could go back to 15 deadlifting little cars dumpsters etc haha now i got the dad bod going on.
To be fair to Eddie, 90% or more of people in Eddie's weight category would not be able to finish that run without passing out or having a heart attack on the spot. The fact he got through that shows what an athlete he is, willing to push himself or die trying... Sidenote.... Having a superheavyweight chase you down like that is kinda scary
It's actually super surprising that he got it at such a pace. I've seen lads half his weight do it in much worse times. Heck, my best time was 10:56 and I can't seem to get it under that! As much as Eddie can come across arrogant, he's an elite tier athlete and for being 26 stone he smashed that run.. Any weight above 18 stone doing that is impressive.
What you gotta love about Eddie is he may seem arrogant at times, but like his shirt says, he backs his bullshit up. And he's a fair sport when he losses a challenge.
Norway 2001, Basic training in the Royal Norwegian Navy, athletics company.. *He was there* about 250lbs, about 200cm tall, everyone thought he was a robot or some kind of genetic experiment.. He never got tired, never showed any sign of weakness, he could outlift and outrun everyone, and if you stopped running to puke, just hearing him come running would make you start sprinting, the dude was terrifying! Like a white Dwayne Johnson, but mean AF.. But I`m glad that guy was there back in the day, because now I use him as workout motivation, I simply imagine him coming after me when I start feeling lazy :D
Absolute BEASTS! I am in awe. I was in special ops for 15 yrs and have NEVER seen someone with Eddie's build be able to do a test like this. No doubt he's strong as a Bull but normally anything with Cardio is out of the question. Our 1.5 mile qual was 12:20 so you would have killed it. We would welcome you with open arms on our team. Seriously Eddie you have a heart of a freakin LION! Love ya man! Keep up inspiring people who have excuses for why they can't do something!!
@@mattgrim5178 I was an LEO, state full time team, best time of my life. I unfortunately I wasn't military. Even tho my team was demanding physically and mentally, it still wasn't nothing like our awesome military Spec Ops. Our team was more full time Swat but our title was Spec Ops.
Hey man, yeh my dreams to work in sf and want to do everything to make it happen. Im 15 right now and i do workouts, runs and eat well daily, but is there anything i should be focusing on specifically? Or just any advice which could prepare me now so that im definitely ready for the recruitment? Cheers man, i look up to people like you
@@dantorbz7024 Dan it sounds like your already doing a great job and have a great attitude towards your dream. My best advice is to continue what your doing, obviously you need upper body strength but if you have good cardio you can do every course I've been through. I recommend jogging with a weighted vest as well, so your knees and shins are used to that abuse, (don't get to crazy with weights at your age because your knees don't deserve the beating) my knees where shot by 35, lol. Obviously lots of push ups and sit ups, BUT remember everyone has muscle failure so it is what it is, i mean that for punishments during course. Be mentally strong because 99% of everything is mental games, and stay focused on your dreams. I wish you the best of luck and hope this small advice helps. Our future is in young men and women like yourself. God bless
Eddie is such a brit and a bro. If I had someone like him egging me on, I would go way further then I normally do. He honestly wants YOU to perform better and no hostile, jealous bone in his body. Lovely AND motivational.
As a guy who have experienced what it feels like to jog after so long of inactivity and weighing much less than Eddie, I gotta say Eddie is a beast for running those distance with that time.
@@tysonangeles1568 The reason why I said what I said in my comment is because I used to be really heavy way back and I'm very active during those time. Now I'm like 20-ish kg lighter than before, but I'm way less active. When I started running again quite recently, I feel like I don't struggle as much as I did back then, and when I started that running, I was expecting to be at worse state than when I weight much more but more active, cause I thought I have more stamina back then. That tells me that having huge body weight is a huge handicap for running. Being active definitely helps for sure, but being too heavy significantly reduces your performance during running, at least that's what my experience is. That's why I applaud Eddie to be able to run that distance with those time even with something like 70+ kg of weight difference between him and me. Also, my current running time compared to his running time in this video is actually not that far off, which is why I'm even more in awe. I definitely wasn't trying to say that Eddie's not an active guy lol, I was saying that I was the one who's very inactive until recently. I've followed Eddie for quite a while now, I know a lot of stuffs that he's done. Hope that clears that up, cheers.
You guys are awesome for trying the PST. You asked for the critique, so here it is: Push Up: You must go fully up & down and no resting with your butt up in the air (looking at you, Ross) Sit Up: Arms must be crossed on the chest. Pull Up: You must go fully up & down. No kipping, swinging etc. Swim: You must use the breaststroke or Combat Swimmer Stroke, which is slower than freestyle. By the way, I was not a Navy SEAL; however, I was a Navy EOD Technician. Navy SEAL and EOD use the same PST Standard (but EOD is a bit easier). And to be fair, I probably wouldn't be able to bench press half the weight that you guys do; additionally, I would have drowned before I hit the half way point around Britain ; ) Cheerio!
Idk this test seems very easy is there a minimum of weight you must have. Because this exercises are very easy for me and I taught the navy seals are beasts. Sorry for my bad english im from switzerland.
@@Schimi24 : This is just a "basic" physical test. And just because you can meet the "minimum" physical requirement, it does not mean that you will get a contract to "try" to become a Navy SEAL. Example: If the Naval Special Warfare Command (NSWC) is giving out only 100 contracts and there are 1,000 applicants, then only the "top 100" performers would receive the contract. And out of those 100 people that have the contract, only about 20-25 people will graduate from the training to become a Navy SEAL in the end (Navy SEAL Training Pipeline or BUD/S has about 75-80% attrition rate). In order to join the regular Navy to begin with, you will have to meet the height & weight requirement.
Dude! Nothing but respect! Especially for that run! 11:27 for a mile and a half is much better than an average guy, and no offense, but you're MUCH bigger than an average guy. (All muscle, but still, it takes a TON of energy to carry around that much muscle). Good job man!
Eddie, you're an inspiration man. I'm 220lbs and I can't run more than 0.75 miles in one go. You've inspired me to try running longer distances. You never give up and I've always found that very very motivating. Thank you.
You got this man! I’m 195lbs and it’s a bitch running but I always threw in mild cardio with my powerlifting workouts. I ran a mile in 9:46 a week ago and shaved off a bit to get it at 8:13. I’m trying to join the navy and want to do the 1.5 mile run in 9 mins.
@@Supremebean303 You got this! The 1.5 mile run is all about practice. Grew up on a military base and that's what Conditioning (PE) class made us do on a weekly basis. My best time was 9:15 at 255.
Props for admitting he had to kick up while doing pull ups. He's a really big guy and these exercises aren't really meant for them (or are much harder for them to do). Wow can't believe he did that run too. His vascular is in very good shape for such a big guy. His stiff head while running is a clear indicator he's not a "runner". Which makes it all the more impressive
I maxed all my PT tests in the Army @ 225 pounds... this is a whole new level... Nice work big man. ... Ross, yeah we all knew you could do it, bro you swam around the fricken island.
@. in the sense that he should have more subs and more recgonition on social media. Love his content, his swim around GB should have had wayyy more views. Absolute machine the guy
I'd love to see Eddie try the NFL Combine tests. At least there's an analog to how other athletes that are 300+ pounds perform in the test. I wonder how Eddie's 40 time would compare with Offensive lineman, as well as broad jump, vertical, shuttle, and bench press.
On top of this, we even have stats by Eddie's favorite, strongman, Mr. Robert Oberst to compare to. I found OB's numbers from the combine to be: 40 5.30 SS 4.87 VJ 30.5 Bench 37 10yd 1.97 20yd 2.99
NFL players have, without a doubt, inflated height/weight stats. I see people there who are a tiny bit larger than me, maybe 5 kg heavier looking and shorter and they say they're almost 20 kg heavier. At least they'll have the PEDs in common haha
@@duanecameronson He's made millions of dollars playing an amateur level sport, so it worked out pretty well for him. You can dislike him all you want, but the guy was an elite swimmer before becoming the World's Strongest Man. If you think he wouldn't compare favorably to Offensive/Interior Defensive lineman at the combine events, we'll just have to respectfully disagree. Troll on, mate.
There's nothing harder than knowing you're well behind but you've still got to keep up, that "why didn't I just run faster to begin with" doubt. Once you're past it you know it's all about the struggle. It's great to see Ross' motivation and mindset at work, Eddie's always a pleasure too but the pair of them make a good combo. Some hard working men right there.
Australian SASR test, 50 cadence push ups, 8 minimum pull ups, 3km run while holding 10kg, 90 minute ruck with 35kg in backpack and finally 800m swim in 16 minutes. Good luck!
I'm impressed with his run time. At my peak my fastest time was 10min14sec at 138lbs. For him to be so large and do it in 11min27sec is fucking amazing.👏🏽 Hooyah Eddie!
all of these are quite accurate the reason people feared them wasn't their size at all it was their overpowering will, fearlessness, fighting abilities and strength also they were known to do shrooms before battle to be more on edge (i could be wrong there not 100% sure) but also some went into battle nearly naked so you see these guys coming you run the other way i would personally love to see an accurate representation of a battle between the vikings and the spartans and samarai

If you guys actually wanted to know: For the NSW PST you must complete it in the order of: Swim → push up → sit up → pull up → run SWIM: must be either combat swimmers' stroke (CSS) or breast stroke, some warrior challenge mentors will not allow breast stroke because it's seen as a faster stroke, pools vary between 25 yards and 25 meters, the test is supposed to be 25 yards but again, the chief can pick to make things a little harder if they give you a meter pool they adjust from 500yd swim to 450m PUSH UPS: resting is only granted in the locked out position but you must maintain a rigid core in a "plank", aka no sagging and no raised butt. Officially you come down to a fist or if a fist is not used then 90° bend at elbows. Some chiefs will require you to the floor. SIT UPS: hands (not just fingers) are placed on traps, no "rocking" sit ups, must go down until scapula hits the floor (shoulders can remain off floor) and up until your elbows touch your upper thighs, no swinging of elbows either, must rest in seated up position PULL UPS: must be pronated grip, no regripping allowed, rest as long as you want from hanging position (some chiefs change this) and no kipping allowed, must be what's known as a "dead hang" pull up RUN: 1.5 mile run, sometimes on a track, sometimes on a path, changes based on location of test given, typically they pick the hardest way to do it. TIME: Overall you have specific rest times, noted as 2 minutes between calisthenics and 10 minutes before/after the cardio vascular events PASSING: passing does not mean you're given an NSW contract, however minimums are on the NSW website. Typically people don't care about the minimums because they mean nothing anyway. To secure a contract you have to be competitive in your district. There are theories of "auto qualification scores" which change based on who you ask/when you ask. But the theory is that a competitive standard must be met typically around these numbers 9:30/75/75/15/9:30 sometimes better scores than that are even suggested.
Very informative. These videos of people passsing the navy seal fitness test are a joke to me. But impressive for a Man this size to move like this. When I was training 9:30/100/100/20/9:00 was competitive. And CSS IS PREFERED because it is an efficient stroke and lowers your profile in the water

I'm a member of USAF Special Recon, and I have a couple things to say:
1) Great job Eddie! That is some tremendous strength!!
2) When doing sit-up, your arms must touch your legs within two inches of your knees.
3) When doing pull-ups, you cannot use your legs to increase vertical power (a.k.a. Kipping).
4) When doing the test sections, you cannot drink water.
5) The swim must only be Breaststroke or Combat Sidestroke.
Thanks guys, great video!
He has some sort of hydration condition, he can’t go very long without drinking, especially if he’s doing something like this haha
Doubt it.
You also can not rest in the down position during sit ups.

Eddie puts out some of the best fitness content. I love the way he challenges himself with other disciplines and takes it in his stride always giving it 100%. Keep it up.
It's really interesting how Eddies immense strength enables him to do really advanced, heavy lifts but at the same time the muscle mass needed to do that makes normal exercises difficult.
This is a pretty standard thing in the military. Big, muscly dudes generally do not make good athletes or combat arms tradesmen.
There are a few MOS' that require it, such as pallbearers, but that's extremely rare.
@@Soaptastesok im a weapons loader in the air force and having a big strong guy (at least 1 per 3-man crew) makes lifting 200lb missiles 7 feet in the air alot easier.

I can max pushups and situps easily, but they are only worth 20 points while the run (useless in my job) is worth 60 points.
@@Soaptastesok Yeah the big muscles they have prevents them from being able to reach most of their back so reaching a magazine or anything in the very back would be very difficult.
Good old square cube law baby.
Yeah, Ive seen a lot of big fucks run (at their top speed) so slow its at a jogging pace, specializing one's body type for a specific task is very important.
it's terrifying that the world strongest man is in better shape than expected. I was speechless when he ran that amazing time for 1.5 miles at his size.
He was a very good swimmer when he was a teenager. I think he has some english record. So his heart is strong
I like how Ross didn't go for a show-off run, but coached Eddie through instead
In hs i was friends with a kid who cross county' he would pull and drag me after a long run.talking and laughing. I wanted to die.sad part i was in good shape. But could never run cross country

@@jeremeysmelltoast7829 did you do stuff for Israel instead of this country?
@Just Some Guy without a Mustache to hell with you. You say those things about Israel without even knowing us. We could've easily made Israel a Jewish only country when the arab nations tried attacking us together in the six day war after 1948 but we have more than 2m arabs living in our country.
What happens when you as a jew go into an arab town? You get assaulted, rocks are thrown at you and they're trying to kill. You think Israel are the one organising the attacks on Gaza and striking first? No. Hamas attacks us with a s**t load of missiles. The only reason we don't have thousands of dead people is the iron Dome and our military. Every assault on Gaza results in civilians dying because these basterds hamas use them as meat shield. Try visiting israel for once before judging. People here are welcoming and we have the most humane army in the world ( litterly we never give death penalties and never kill fckin terrorists). You think we're evil cause you have no idea about what's going on. I thought people would learn after the Holocaust that being antisemitic only results in death and begins a cycle of hatered.
We just want to live in peace without recieving death threats from everyone. If the US weren't supporting us and our army wasn't powerful, Hitler's goal to exterminate Jews would've been accomplished accomplished.
We desire peace. But you people judging us without having a clue is what stops it from happening.
Mark my words: world war 3 is going to happen soon and it won't end until either Israel or the arab nations are dead and nobody wants to burry his brothers and family in the ground
When I was in high school, one of our phys-ed teachers was a retired Marine colonel. His name was Joe Molitoris. He was not only a great teacher but the best motivator I have ever met. I was a skinny 5 foot 10 inch 135 pounds but I was highly competitive and pound for pound one of the strongest kids in school. Thanks to coach Mol, our gym classes were tested against the Marine Corps physical fitness tests. Always wanting to be the best I looked up the requirements for passing, elite, and found the state records for high school students. When I got to sit-ups I saw that the record for 11th graders was 76 reps in 2 min. I was certain I could beat that and focused on owning that record. On the day of the sit-up test, we were told that 70 was a 100-point score. I told the coach I was going for the record and he said 76 reps in 2 min. is going to be tough, do you think you can do it? I told him I was doing 80 in practice and felt sure I can do it. When word got around, the gym started to fill up to see if this not-so-star athlete could do this. I was up first and was moving pretty well until around 60 I started cramping. It was all I could do to get 70 and score 100 points. I was so upset with myself that I asked the coach if I could try again by going last. That gave me around 30 min to stretch out the cramps. My classmates thought I was nuts because I already had 100 points. I just said "Because I can do 80 '. I did 80 reps with a few seconds left, but 80 was my wall.
Good story Michael. You should be proud of yourself for persevering. Did you call your teacher Colonel or Mr. Molitoris? I like to address retired officers as their rank as I think it shows respect.
At age of 14(8th grade) my cousin(2 years younger) and I went challenge mode. I was doing 100 press bends in one take(around 3:smth), 50 push-ups(hell knows how many time it took, I presume a bit more than 2 minutes), climbed to 15 pull-ups. Never made a run though. Even then, a 48 KG teenager of mine would literally die in attempt to do all the things within time, taking only 2 minutes rest in between! And we were some kind of "sporty" guys back then!
I swan with Eddie when I was younger. Can confirm he was a fucking beast. I was the fastest in the UK for my age ( I went on to compete in the olympics). Eddie wasnt much slower than me ad 2 years younger. Genetic freak

That round of Rock Paper Scissors was the most intense game ever.
The man couldn't lose, his fist would crush anything his opponent picked. Basically Nuke-Rock-Paper-Scissors.

To be fair to Eddie, 90% or more of people in Eddie's weight category would not be able to finish that run without passing out or having a heart attack on the spot. The fact he got through that shows what an athlete he is, willing to push himself or die trying...
Sidenote.... Having a superheavyweight chase you down like that is kinda scary
It's actually super surprising that he got it at such a pace. I've seen lads half his weight do it in much worse times. Heck, my best time was 10:56 and I can't seem to get it under that! As much as Eddie can come across arrogant, he's an elite tier athlete and for being 26 stone he smashed that run.. Any weight above 18 stone doing that is impressive.
What you gotta love about Eddie is he may seem arrogant at times, but like his shirt says, he backs his bullshit up. And he's a fair sport when he losses a challenge.
Most ppl his weight is over weight lol Eddie is all muscle
Way more than 90% are you high

@@dantorbz7024 Dan it sounds like your already doing a great job and have a great attitude towards your dream. My best advice is to continue what your doing, obviously you need upper body strength but if you have good cardio you can do every course I've been through. I recommend jogging with a weighted vest as well, so your knees and shins are used to that abuse, (don't get to crazy with weights at your age because your knees don't deserve the beating) my knees where shot by 35, lol. Obviously lots of push ups and sit ups, BUT remember everyone has muscle failure so it is what it is, i mean that for punishments during course. Be mentally strong because 99% of everything is mental games, and stay focused on your dreams. I wish you the best of luck and hope this small advice helps. Our future is in young men and women like yourself. God bless
Eddie is such a brit and a bro. If I had someone like him egging me on, I would go way further then I normally do. He honestly wants YOU to perform better and no hostile, jealous bone in his body. Lovely AND motivational.
As a guy who have experienced what it feels like to jog after so long of inactivity and weighing much less than Eddie, I gotta say Eddie is a beast for running those distance with that time.
hes crazy active, and he said he runs already. thats not inactivity lol, hes just huge
@@tysonangeles1568 I was referring to me who's being inactive, not him lol.
@@tysonangeles1568 The reason why I said what I said in my comment is because I used to be really heavy way back and I'm very active during those time. Now I'm like 20-ish kg lighter than before, but I'm way less active. When I started running again quite recently, I feel like I don't struggle as much as I did back then, and when I started that running, I was expecting to be at worse state than when I weight much more but more active, cause I thought I have more stamina back then.
That tells me that having huge body weight is a huge handicap for running. Being active definitely helps for sure, but being too heavy significantly reduces your performance during running, at least that's what my experience is. That's why I applaud Eddie to be able to run that distance with those time even with something like 70+ kg of weight difference between him and me. Also, my current running time compared to his running time in this video is actually not that far off, which is why I'm even more in awe.
I definitely wasn't trying to say that Eddie's not an active guy lol, I was saying that I was the one who's very inactive until recently. I've followed Eddie for quite a while now, I know a lot of stuffs that he's done.
Hope that clears that up, cheers.

@@MASTER-ts3sj no one asked kid
You guys are awesome for trying the PST.
You asked for the critique, so here it is:
Push Up: You must go fully up & down and no resting with your butt up in the air (looking at you, Ross)
Sit Up: Arms must be crossed on the chest.
Pull Up: You must go fully up & down. No kipping, swinging etc.
Swim: You must use the breaststroke or Combat Swimmer Stroke, which is slower than freestyle.
By the way, I was not a Navy SEAL; however, I was a Navy EOD Technician. Navy SEAL and EOD use the same PST Standard (but EOD is a bit easier).
And to be fair, I probably wouldn't be able to bench press half the weight that you guys do; additionally, I would have drowned before I hit the half way point around Britain ; ) Cheerio!

Idk this test seems very easy is there a minimum of weight you must have. Because this exercises are very easy for me and I taught the navy seals are beasts. Sorry for my bad english im from switzerland.
@@Schimi24 : This is just a "basic" physical test. And just because you can meet the "minimum" physical requirement, it does not mean that you will get a contract to "try" to become a Navy SEAL.
Example: If the Naval Special Warfare Command (NSWC) is giving out only 100 contracts and there are 1,000 applicants, then only the "top 100" performers would receive the contract. And out of those 100 people that have the contract, only about 20-25 people will graduate from the training to become a Navy SEAL in the end (Navy SEAL Training Pipeline or BUD/S has about 75-80% attrition rate).
In order to join the regular Navy to begin with, you will have to meet the height & weight requirement.

I'd love to see Eddie try the NFL Combine tests. At least there's an analog to how other athletes that are 300+ pounds perform in the test. I wonder how Eddie's 40 time would compare with Offensive lineman, as well as broad jump, vertical, shuttle, and bench press.
On top of this, we even have stats by Eddie's favorite, strongman, Mr. Robert Oberst to compare to. I found OB's numbers from the combine to be:
40 5.30
SS 4.87
VJ 30.5
Bench 37
10yd 1.97
20yd 2.99
NFL players have, without a doubt, inflated height/weight stats. I see people there who are a tiny bit larger than me, maybe 5 kg heavier looking and shorter and they say they're almost 20 kg heavier. At least they'll have the PEDs in common haha

SWIM: must be either combat swimmers' stroke (CSS) or breast stroke, some warrior challenge mentors will not allow breast stroke because it's seen as a faster stroke, pools vary between 25 yards and 25 meters, the test is supposed to be 25 yards but again, the chief can pick to make things a little harder if they give you a meter pool they adjust from 500yd swim to 450m
PUSH UPS: resting is only granted in the locked out position but you must maintain a rigid core in a "plank", aka no sagging and no raised butt. Officially you come down to a fist or if a fist is not used then 90° bend at elbows. Some chiefs will require you to the floor.
SIT UPS: hands (not just fingers) are placed on traps, no "rocking" sit ups, must go down until scapula hits the floor (shoulders can remain off floor) and up until your elbows touch your upper thighs, no swinging of elbows either, must rest in seated up position
PULL UPS: must be pronated grip, no regripping allowed, rest as long as you want from hanging position (some chiefs change this) and no kipping allowed, must be what's known as a "dead hang" pull up
RUN: 1.5 mile run, sometimes on a track, sometimes on a path, changes based on location of test given, typically they pick the hardest way to do it.
TIME: Overall you have specific rest times, noted as 2 minutes between calisthenics and 10 minutes before/after the cardio vascular events
PASSING: passing does not mean you're given an NSW contract, however minimums are on the NSW website. Typically people don't care about the minimums because they mean nothing anyway. To secure a contract you have to be competitive in your district. There are theories of "auto qualification scores" which change based on who you ask/when you ask. But the theory is that a competitive standard must be met typically around these numbers 9:30/75/75/15/9:30 sometimes better scores than that are even suggested.
Bro chilllll
Very informative. These videos of people passsing the navy seal fitness test are a joke to me. But impressive for a Man this size to move like this. When I was training 9:30/100/100/20/9:00 was competitive. And CSS IS PREFERED because it is an efficient stroke and lowers your profile in the water
@@iainmiller-moore4388 brah you salty? hes just dropping knowledge.....
@@vh8689 little overkill imo
Iain Miller-Moore I hear ya lol I mean information is power tho brother!
So you're telling me if Eddie tries a little more and trains a little harder around the calisthenics and gymnastics area....he could become batman?!
That's one big Batman!
He’s rich
Can lift 1000 pounds
He is Batman
This man eats 10k calories a day. He is bat man
I he trains more harder of course that can become a eddie hall
Yes and that’s like old school cartoon big muscle Batman at that
That run of 1.5 miles in 11.27 is just insane to me. I'm not even half Eddie's weight, and the best I've managed over that distance is 12.50.
It's a 7:38 mile time. Pretty dang good.
You're unfit
Eddie: "Ready? 3, 2, 1, go!"
TH-cam: Ad in 3, 2, 1, AD
This man synchronised his midroll countdown with his video lol.

Or TH-cam vanced..
If anyone doesn’t need to be armed to be intimidating, then it’s Eddie.
@@effects4days821 I would love to see you say this to his face....
@@effects4days821 Lol. Imagine being so petty you need to troll his videos, bitch about a fair win and moan on someone else's comment.
Get some sleep and wake a better individual.
Effects4days get a grip
@@matthewlaunchbury265 guys @effects4days still lives with his mummy hes only a wee boy. He's no woke up yet and had his cornflakes....
Albert Cole I gave his videos a free view AND a free dislike for being a dumbass 😊😂

@@Adenoidsqwe Hahahaha
Honestly Eddie...superhuman. With your weight and size...honestly superhuman. Not just strength, but also tenacity. Continue on man.
Eddie running at 2x speed is so memeable
I also put it on 2 times and it's the greatest thing ever lmao
it looks hilarious lmao
Can he even run? Probably i walk faster than he "runs".
@@Killerkarotte1 probably cause the guy is 3x your weight lmao
@@lancetheking7524 Thx Captain obvious for proving that extreme weight lifting has nothing to do with fitness. ^^
even if he trialed and didnt pass, they would probably take him anyways cause he is a living tank
speech 100
Jadyn Has Stupid he trialed okay?
"The juggernaut"
Navy SEALs don't use tanks. LOL
@@johndeluna692 No, but they have a love for tankers, so they should love the beast.
Ross is that one hyper extrovert friend. Full of energy, and can go and go and go and doesn't stop. Seems like he'd be fun to invite basically anywhere
I was thinking the same thing... love his energy. It's intense without being annoying... real people person.
@@johndeeregreen4592facts
The moment 166 kg guy does more push ups then you
Yeah lmao
Man what is eddie made of? I always thought strongmen dont have endurance.
i though he was 180
his chest is ridiculously well-developed
70kg, 3 my arms are hurting lmao
Eddie definitely the most motivational human being out there like doing a test designed for people half his weight like wow!
@Ryan Chetty and a 3rd of his strength
I hope we see more collab of Eddie and Ross, all videos with these two are pure gold.
Eddie, you sir have become one of my favorite human beings!! Just all the way around. It will sound like a cliche but because of your videos and everything that you do, I feel this new urge to just keep pushing and not give up or give in. Thank you for the content, laughs and of course this new push I have found in me. Much love big brother 🤘🏼🤘🏼
11 years in the army and I never nailed 77 pushups as easily as Eddie and I'm half his size. You're a monster
What did you do in the Army though to not be able to do 77 were you a cook or in logistics 😂 with the form in this I'm sure most could bang out 100
@@ExodusX13 watch out, we got a badass over here.
@@ExodusX13 didn't sit around and post spazzy comments he served his country
Insaneology ya the push-up form for both was pretty damn lacking. Wasn’t as bad as eddies pull-ups tho. To be fair I’d never expect someone of his size to legitimately be able to do a considerable amount of pushups and pull-ups with proper form
@@lewisraj don't say that, if you take away his snarky comments he has nothing left in life.
The fishes where he pissed will be jacked by the end of the month. However, the fishes will also experience the side effect..DEHYDRATATION.
They will be mutants from roids.
Better pour in some cranberry juice for them as well.
Hafthor: *can hardly breathe after short warmup*
Eddie: *N A V Y S E A L T R A I N I N G*
Eddie came from stamina background while hafthor came from weights, that's why i feel the boxing thing is kinda unfair for thor
Ryan that just means that Hafthor will just have to knock him out early before Eddie picks up his pace, or defend until he finds the right timing for some VERY effective punches
@@jhackster6049 but rmb that eddie's punches are just as powerful as Thor's at this point, and reach isn't an issue because of his speed
I think Hafthor used to be a basketball player no?
@@zprettpolly don't rmb him being national status though he might be, Eddie was a national swimmer. Plus thor started lifting at a younger age if I'm not wrong
Eddie's got heart. Needed something to help through my first meal and hell man, I'm only 265lbs and the same height. I couldn't do that run at nonstop pace. That's beast mode
These guys should start a Netflix series together
I’d binge it
id binge to
Ye id defo binge that shit
ZackM if they did it on TH-cam they’d get paid the same as a ten minute video per episode
