That was actually a 75 second rest for Biby from carrying those arms round 24/7
@@thealister8093 not what he meant lol, he meant that biby got a break from having to hold his arms

Nah, he just needed to stretch out after the axel press

Mark Felix is a true legend who continues to impress in his role in strongman and a man in his 50’s 👍😀
He’s unbelievable. He’s been competing for so long….respect to anyone with that kind of longevity in the iron sports.
I'd like to see anyone at age 55 do the same
you are right pro ❤️

He's twice the age of most of the contestants and looks years younger, but he's still incredible for a strongman at his age!
Not to mention he doesn't need bluetooth earpiece to get music or someone to tell him the time
Exactly. He does it with mental discipline, and calmly, plus he is in better shape.
@@Miiiiiiighty you can literally see the earpiece 0:41
@@everythinghaschanged42 that's Iron Biby. He was talking about Mark Felix, who goes 2nd...
@@splendidninja1378 hes high dont worry💀
1. Biby is a monster. 2. Felix is getting older.
Both guys are a blast to watch.
I sometimes forget that Mark is almost 60. He really is the Miracle.
Felix will be back age is just a number
are you inferring that Biby isn't getting older? he somehow found the secret to stop getting older? i wish he would share it. :)
@@steveswangler6373 That would be a logical error. Felix is half way through his fifties. When biby gets there we'll talk about him getting older, as well.
@@tonyrossify depends on the context
Biby is a monster. His shoulders are huge. Great effort by both men. Was fun to watch. Great video
Marks are also huge especially for a guy who's Achilles heel is his ohp
@Flanks TH-cam barely any of it
@Flanks TH-cam fat & muscle!
Mark looks like an anorexic fitness model next to biby
Yes he is a monster.. Just imagine, his arm size is equal with my thigh..
And I think, his weight is 4 times heavier than me, cause I'm just 40 kg 🙂
What a humble man to wish his competitor the best and even to win.
It’s good to see this sport taking off.
I remember seeing Bibby on CT Fletcher channel some time ago and thought this guys going to go far one day! He definitely has!
Massive respect to these gaints! Mark is unbelievable for his age.. crazy genetics.
Them days there valley of the beasts yaar 💪🏽
@@cali5224 those days where crazy! CT Fletcher haydays with the likes kf Hulk Smash! Another beast
Hulk Smash same person as Biby???
@@11marcian No, two different people and they sometimes compete against each other in shows. 'Hulk Smash' is a legend in his own right.
Felix is 55.
Biby is 29.
Felix still has the record. What an amazing human to compete at this level of strength at his age. Well done!
Felix is awesome! All of these guys are pure class!
Hercules Hold and Deadlift Hold are probably my favorite grip events to watch
Deadlift isn't a grip event, straps
@@patrickjohnson721 they used to do Car Deadlift + hold it for time as an event pretty frequently
Biby is gonna be one of the best in history
Give him the experience he needs
Nah. Maybe for pressing stuff, but not in terms of the rest
one of my favorite aspects of the strongman competitions is the sportsmanship showed by most if not all competitors. the way they congratulate each other, and even cheer each other on, that is a true athlete and shows they have respect for their opponents and their sport.
Biby's shoulder is as huge as my thigh. What a legend, both of them
Bruh. As huge as my head. I can't believe it the first time I saw his shoulder.
Well its definitely bigger than my thigh lol
You must have massive thighs
It could fit 5 of my thigh s
I appreciate Mark's composure throughout the hold!🍻
Props to both ❤️
Biby is younger than me. Mark is older than my dad.
Speaks for itself...
Damn right FELIX ...What might happen if Felix was young
@@Million-x9q lol we know what would happen, he already has the record!
Holy shit ..
Teen pregnancy
@@clips9294 Nope. I am 30 and my dad is 54 and my mom is 51.
Marc Felix is huge but the other dudes are are on another level.
Whoa I didn’t know he was 55! Man to be that strong at that age. He could pass for 38, no joke.
Mark still holds the world Record for the Hercules Hold with the time of 1:27 which is 12 seconds longer than Biby over here.
mark still has the revord
Mark Felix hercules hold record is 1 minute and an half almost. No one has beaten that yet.
Title is misleading. Also if there was someone who could have competed with Mark Felix it would have been prime Magnus Samuelsson. His grip was legendary.
@@vincentvaleur3573 my grip is legendary
@@romeoo5272 lol
@@vincentvaleur3573
Did Magnus not hold those two tons for about 1 minute and 45 seconds
@@luiscollazo5128 If I remember correctly Magnus ver Magnusson and Bill Kashmir competed in this event long after they retired from the sport. I have no idea if the weight was the same, but in the event Magnus got a time of 101.2 seconds which is considerably longer than Mark Felix's time. I'm guessing the weight or the angle of the pillars was different for that kind of time to happen.
Magnus Samuelsson is famous for being able to close the number 4 captain of crush with each hand. He is one of 4 people in the world who has done this, and the only person to have done this with both hands.
Biby is awesome and on his way way. Mark is a certified Legend, that I've always enjoyed watching.
The timer kept going once he dropped the pillars by like 3 seconds
I think it is till they touch the ground..?
Yeah that was definitely only 1 minute 12 maybe 1 minute 13 definitely not 1 minute 15
Right.. who tf judging these?!
Lol it was the same with biby
@@cp0pain623 pretty sure that’s what everyone is saying. Bibys timer was messed up and kept counting after he dropped.
I love Felix such a humble guy , he lost he lost that’s it no BS
Bless him
The guy at the end asking lot of technical questions, and Felix was like "I don't know dude. That shit is heavy"
We really need to see an average human attempt this before these guys start so we can truly appreciate what we’re seeing
I don't think many people out there would be able to even hold this after the initial release without experiencing some shoulder tearing. Given most people aren't even capable of deadlifting even a smallish weight (100 kilos or c. 1.5* bodyweight) properly, I highly doubt they would be able to even hold it for a second or two. If you found your average strength training gym goer they might be able to hold it for ten seconds or so if they are naturally quite large, but again, I don't see many people being able to hold it for a substantial amount of time. I haven't been able to train properly for a while now thanks to Coronavirus and personal circumstances, but when I was at my strongest I think I would manage maybe 10-15 seconds, but I can't even imagine holding it for a minute and a half... Though I only weigh about 85 kilos currently so I imagine another 60 odd kilos probably helps quite a bit haha...
Dislocated shoulders and torn ligaments and muscles galore
I think an average human would get a dislocated shoulder and a broken hand. That's if they're lucky...
@@cymtastique whatever it takes lol
My entire body will be ripped in half in a matter of 2 seconds.
What makes this great is that you hear the announcer as it happens and it makes the audience get into it even more
His Shoulders, biceps and forearms is some of the strongest of all time
Not biceps, at least not yet, if he actually wanted to get the strongest biceps he could probably easily do it though
@@benedictyeong746 he curl 100kg for a lot of clean reps with one of the best form I’ve seen so yes he does have one of the strongest biceps out there
@@tst187. I've seen Arm Wrestling champs curl more than 100 kilo.
@@raymondluke92 I can cheat curl 100kg too I’m talking about clean reps
@Dom . Who mentioned "cheat curling??" Because I didn't. Check out Dennis, he used too be a Russian Armwrestling champ! I can't spell his last name. He's a f**King beast. Seriously. There's others aswel. Larry Wheels aswel. He's a freak of nature aswel.
That was real impressive but to be fair Mark Felix has held it for a bit loonger than he was able to do here, 87.52 seconds to be precise. All respect to Biby in every way, but he hasnt beaten Mark yet.
Ever
Felix lost here. Biby beat him.
@@coreycokepolk9483 The point was that he hasn't surpassed Felix at his prime. Not sure how you didn't get it.
@@coreycokepolk9483 yes, obviously Mark lost here. The obvious point of the comment was that Mark is still the world record holder for the Hercules hold,so while Biby beat him on that day, he still hasn't surpassed marks record. Surely you can't be that dumb.
@@coreycokepolk9483 At that very spesific time yes. BUT Biby HASNT beaten Mark Felix's best time which is 87.52 seconds. See the bigger picture m8 xD
At first I didn't think this was real I thought it was a thumbnail but yeah this man actually exist
I watched the whole True Classic Teas commercials and will purchase them just because of them lol comedic genius
More full shows for Biby . He's capable of winning full shows
Watching this reminds me of Samson standing between the giant pillars of the Philistine temple, pushing them apart and bringing down the house of Dagon all by the power of God working through him.
There at the end when questioning Mark Felix, holy shit. Respect to that guy, didn't complain or try to push any amount of blame on the equipment, or the temperature,nothing. Just took his loss and moved past it immediately. That's commendable character right there
Dude must eat like 10 cornish hens for an appetiser and washes it down with a gallon of muscle milk haha
He probably have the biggest arm in the world without synthol
@@MDaDonLegacy I know I didn’t say he use synthol, I said that only people with synthol can have bigger arms than him
@@tst187 ahh I got you, worded a little weird but yes I agree with you now.
@@MDaDonLegacy it's actually perfectly well written and totally understandable
Maybe like 750+ lbs people can have larger arms, but just all fat. I always wonder that. I mean if their waist is like 75"+, not impossible for the fat around their arm to be over 28", especially if they have a tumour or fat deposit growth there....
FML I know it has nothing to do with any of this but I just came back from seeing my GF and someone stole my bike :( I left it outside her house (chained) AND we went to the grocery store and when we came back there it was the broken chain and no bike 😞 man I'm so fuckin sad that bike was my best friend she took me everywhere 😞😞😞 R.I.P. I'll miss you my dear
It's interesting seeing the micro emotions on their face, the 25 second mark like "Yeah this heavy." Then the next 25 seconds is grinding. Then the next 25 seconds is grit, that last push for effort.
this is the first time i heard Mark Felix speak as I don't really watch much of Strongman I just get random recommendations from youtube and I've somehow became a fan of him but I wasn't expecting his voice to be very soft and high. he always gave they noble tough dignified demeanor and I thought in my head that his voice was gonna be really deep haha. still a fan though he's awesomes.
Mark is not lost
Hegot respect for giving his best in his 50's
So this is what Zion has been up to since his hiatus from basketball.
His come back will be epic!
That's a violation 😅🤣🤣
Biby the monster ! But mark felix always be a senior monster 💕
I got goosebumps all over!! Way to go!!
Neil Pickup, your commentary is beyond unmatched! The way you honor the athletes and build excitement is spine tingling! Keep rocking it man!
I know him from the arm wrestling world. Thought it sounded like him!
I could tell Felix said to himself it's time for the next generation to take this from me it literally looked like he purposely stopped that's humbling
God Mark Felix indeed he is💯💪
Mark Felix is such a unique human... He's in his 50s looking big, strong and healthy doing things not many others not even half his age can do.
Felix was so impressive to even set the record at his age, think he was 53. 🏴
Having longer arms screws you in this event. I can see the difference in pillar angles. The greater pitch s that much more force to restrain. They should measure arm length and adjust the base locations.
Should we make shorter competitors stand on risers for deadlift too to balance out the height difference there? There's a reason these competitions are never a single event. Different events favor different body types. It's part of the sport. Being bigger/having longer arms has plenty of advantages itself.
@@bormz7191 you're 100% right! I was buzzed out last night. Forgot its not a one event competition
@@bormz7191 short guy found
@@invalleria he's a troll. Which is the shortest guy.
@@bormz7191 I don‘t disagree entirely, but I do think being required to hold different weights entierely (due to the angle of the pillars) and lifting the same weight a different height is still a bit different, especially when certain lifts benefit from momentum anyway and taller guys already have the benefit of stronger bones, tendons etc. . Also why not make events as comparable as possible when we are able too.
Anyway mark felx is the king
Always
This is true
For the whole first minute of bibys turn I was just like “get this man a real challenge”
Felix is an amazing man.
I've always wanted to see one of these wsm guys in a guest match in the wwe. Guys like Iron Biby, Juoka Ahola or Mariusz Pudzianowski would make an interesting match
Bibi said he wants to break the Hercules Hold world record as well. I think he and JF are the only ones who have a chance.
Iron biby showing great respect & a gentleman's class.
Very impressive
Love from Nigeria
That’s a strong man.
Pause at 1:37. Look at the timer. He let go at 1:13 and they gave him 1:15 to beat Singleton ?
I guess it stops when the 2nd pillar hits the ground
@@peterfuchs187 that makes no sense. you could just hold 1 pillar then
That timer isn't exact to the judges' stopwatch. It's close, but the judges are responsible for the actual time.
@@squibblez2517 It's a whole 2 sec off.
@@Kaynos as per my last reply, it's close, but the judge gives the final time.
Iron Biby such a beast. So likable.
He definitely dropped at 113. Singleton won that for sure. Mark Felix is an absolute legend and he's definitely 20 to 30 years older than most competitors. When he retires I hope we see him commentating or doing something within strongman. We need to see more previous competitors staying around and helping the sport grow. I was hoping Eddie Hall was going to stay around.
I was thinking he dropped that at 1:13 why give him 1:15?
@@Machete1708 to make the record that much better I guess
They had to speed up the footage, since he held the pillars for one hour, 15 minutes and 12 seconds.
Bibby’s arms has to get registered separately as deadly weapons
Both are legends, this isn't easy By Any Means, so big ups
OMG Iron Bibby somehow gets bigger everytime I see him!!!Is Mark Felix 55 or 35, what a specimen he is still killin' it !!!
Did they actually give him that round record? He clearly let go way before 1:14
I think it's from when the last pillar hits the pads? Not certain tho. The timer on the show is not always 100% accurate either
Maaan that’s what I said yo. 1:36 at 1:13
I was just going to comment about that too, I dont see how they can just keep counting if they let go 1 side already. The clock should stop if either side drops in my opinion.
It's harder to hold one piller unbalanced than both pillers. So they count the time last piller hit the pad.
@@lalithasrividhara6205 that’s not true at all. This was a gifted 2 seconds easily. The rules are as soon as the grip is released. Even if we count it when the first pillar hits the ground it was only 1:13…
Marc Felix is a LEGEND! 💪🏾💪🏾
Has anybody noticed, the stronger the more gentle they come. All of them.
What an exciting performance. I wish I could have been there.
Not going to lie the left pillar didn't look as balanced as the right. Mark is a monster. One of the great strongmen.
Yep i thought the same. The ankle is way too much at Marks try!
I can imagine me trying this and losing at least 1 arm in the process.....who am I kidding, I couldn't even hold the grips!
🤣😅😂
I would just run from the aura of that thing.😅
😂
Those pillars would rip you into two
@@infozone9601 I was thinking the same thing! Us mere mortals would be ripped in half! 🤯
A true power of this man
The Strong are the Beautiful!
They gave him the win. The time was running when his hand let go
He still had it by a few seconds
@@inyourgrillbrunson9575 I dunno where u see that at. If time had. Stopped when his hand let go he would not have won. But if they are stopping with the first piller touches the mat then he definitely won. Not that I really care. Just saying
@@superiorgas294 wym Bibby let go at 1:13 felix at 1:06 still some seconds.
@@inyourgrillbrunson9575 hey look man I don't know the rules. I was. Pointing out the obvious
@@superiorgas294 neither do I
WTF the Pillar HITTED the Ground at around 1:13/14.....and they say its over 1:15.....Thats rigged
1:37 Check it yourself
The time on the screen and the referee’s timer have slight differences!
No excuses what so ever. What a legend honestly, such humbleness is rare in sports today.
Wow! Freaking mountains of men. Good show to them both.
How does recording the finish time work? It looked like the grips slipped from Biby's hands at about 1:13, not 1:15? Does the time end when the pillars hit the ground?
I think so, the time ends when the pillars hit the ground
He didn't beat him. Otherwise people would just hold on with 2 arms on 1 pillar. The moment Felix released his one hand, the timer stopped but not for Biby. Seems fishy
@@Black-Moustache must get the blackman win😉
@@CletusMcdonagh Felix is black too tho 😂
@@davidkosiba624 nice
You have to give Iron Biby a lot of credit. He has immense strength and potential but he is also humble and shows immense respect and good sportsmanship toward his fellow competitors. He is a class act. Mark Felix is amazing for his age. Hopefully Iron Biby will drop to a more muscular, healthier bodyweight and increase his chances for a long career like Mark Felix and a longer, healthier life in general.
I love the sportsmanship
"He looks calm, cool and collected."
Camera spans to Biby and he’s sweating bullets 😂
If you pause at exactly 1:37 , Biby lost it and time says 113. How is it they gave him 115.12 at this event? Maybe they missed it... or maybe im missing something lol
i think its the time when the last pillar hits the ground. Even Mark felix did 1:25 for his second WR which gave him 1:27 WR title.
He got that 💪
Salute King a real hero no comicbook needed
Hot damn. Someone finally challenges Felix as the Grip God
Yeah he defientely did not win that one, He let go at 1:13 but the huge pillar didn't go down but he still released both of them at 1:13.
Definitely wasn't 1:15
I remember watching "World strongest man", Felix was almost ALWAYS ending in the last position.
It took Mark YEARS to realize it was actually a competition and not a free membership to an exclusive gym.
Muito sucesso guerreiros sou fã de vocês
Two things about Biby, the look on his face towards the end looked like he was at his favorite restaurant trying to decide between his favorite 2 dishes and 2 secondly at the end when he was speaking, you can hear he is a true sport and likes to have a friendly and competitive competition.
Neil Pickup the GOAT 🔥
I agree Wesley. He adds so much energy to the show. He brings the same intensity when he does the commentating for arm wrestling events. You're the man Neil!
I've seen watermelons smaller then Biby's shoulders
That's torture. God bless these Studs!
I love the confidence in M..Flix
Huge lie here. bibi dropped it at 1:13 but they added 2 seconds just because 😂 The other guy won.
Not taking anything away from Bibby he’s amazing
But the pillars seem to be more upright which must make it a slightly easier for them?
But still brilliant
I thought I was the only one to realize this. It makes sense that the shorter the competitor’s fingertip to fingertip reach is, the more upright the pillars will stand. The more upright the pillars stand, the less they pull.
If I’m wrong, hopefully somebody will correct me but it seems like a longer reach is mechanically disadvantageous.
Love how he has his headphones in his ears
But mark Felix was on another level . His face expression during hold was calm
He beat him but he’s still didn’t beat his world record
Only Felix can beat his own world records, he's the King of Hercules hold
The commentator never shuts up
Lord he’s the size of a planet 💪🏾👍🏾😱
