people see the 500kg deadlift but dont see the dozen years of training that went into it. good work hafthor!
...01..
He had a few weeks training special to This after Arnolds and he was Always akward in deadlift suite. At 6'⁹ wow. He did it
ok????
Lifetime of training*
@Top Doge He's not wrong
Powerlifters: “So are you in the 1000lb club?”
Hafthor Bjornsson: “Which lift?”
Ray williams squattet 490kg with knee sleves in a meet, Jamal Browner deadlifted 440kg @110kg without straps in a meet. Powerlifters deserve more credit
@@RavagoreTv I think a lot of that is because of how diverse the strongman events are, and they look like total monsters
@@lightspamorochi766 Its the king of the total strength
Thor
@@RavagoreTv
Powerlifting is a fucking joke!!!
The way they arch their back and have ZERO ROM on the bench press... Ridiculous and insulting!
0:25 Guy on the left waiting for a fist bump until today.
😂😂😂
LMAO
1:42 - the secret of a heavy deadlift is to have a topless Larry wheels cheering on you.
Haha
@summit higley Thor is Mountain(6.9") , He can only be Dwarfed by *Oliver Ritchers* The Dutch Giant(7.2" Guy) or a taller Guy.
Ayo?
Repent and trust in Jesus. We all deserve Hell for our sins, such as lying lusting coveting and more. We can't save ourselves, but Jesus can save us. He died on the cross to save us for our sins and rose from the grave defeating death and Hell. You must put your faith in him only. He is the only way to Heaven. Repent and trust in Jesus.
Romans 6:23
John 3:16❤😊❤❤
Dude... that form in the first lift.. spine cracking..
Think Eddie Hall would call that "like a cat taking a shit"
Hes holding the bar not in sync... Hes left hand is much closer to the plates then his right hand... Could be an optical illusion but its seems like that...
Honestly makes it even more impressive that he sucked at first.
Man i know! I like that as much as the increase in strength, his technique went from being absolute dog shite ugly to being sweet as!
Quite incredible he managed to lift it with that "form".
first lift
Mike Tyson: “I broke my back.”, “My back is broken. Spinal.”
The fact that he loved this comment made me an even bigger fan of him.
Marco *THPINAL*
300kg before you get the technique down isn't a bad place to start.
Best comment in the history of hafthor's channel!!! LOLOLOL
Thpinal
He doesn't even look human standing there just before the 501 lift.
That 7th place finish really hit me hard. Man went from 7th to 1st bc of hard work, determination, and consistency...inspirational
You *must* listen to Thor's interview with Arnold Schwarzenegger after he won his 3rd consecutive Arnold Strongman Classic.
That first lift:
0% form
501% raw strength
@Adam Dahlström DRe Nähä? Säger du det? Tack för att du berättade för mig Mr. Sherlock :)
”0% form
501% raw strength”
Syftade bara på att du skrev raw strength, så du behöver inte bli passivt aggressiv, ville bara dubbel kolla. Vet många som inte vet att sådana suits finns som lätt lägger på 30 kg extra
@@adamdahlstrom2095 501kg kräver väl dock rätt mycket råstyrka, eller? Tror även att han hade kunnat få upp 520kg den dagen. Därför, raw strength, yes - raw equipped, no.
@Adam Dahlström DRe Tror det var mer för att snärta Eddie Hall på näsan hehe
@Adam Dahlström DRe Thor för min del, självdå?
Happy birthday, you're a legend.
Que sorpresa encontrar un canal al que estoy suscrito comentando aqui :)
steroids = antinatural loser
@@daniarbol1815 y go take roids and give what he did a try if you think this way:D
@@daniarbol1815 you think you can do it without roids you loser?
@@JerseyPiney I dont think anybody could but hes still put mass amounts of dedication n effort into it a lot of it plays on genetics too
The foot position and form on the first one shows talent. Horrible set up but still pulled a weight most can only dream about.
Everything from there shows the years of dedication and hard work. Amazing.
Most other lifters would damage their spine or something else lifting like that. You can see how good his body genetics are
I watched this video so many times, but i can't stop watching this video again and again, amazing
Absolute legend
One of the strongest person born on this planet ever
Congratulations to you and your family for the baby 👶
Appreciate you man. Thank you. All the best to you and your family!
@@Hafthorjulius Why did he say "one of the strongest"... THE strongest ever. Without question. Big Z and Brian Shaw are competition but nobody could beat 2020 Hafthor.
@@rabblerabbleRubble really? In think you should come back when he wins wsm another 3 or 4 times to enter in the same league as brian ,big z and marius lol ..Big z is guy who has done this for 20 years and won many competition over the years and add 4 WSM title to his name and he is the strongest presser ever ... Brian shaw on the other hand has 4 title as well and dont don't even get me started with what marius pudzianowski has achieve in this sport so all i am saying is halfthor is strongest but not the strongest of all time lol....... And one more thing your last line dose not make any sense when you say no one can beat him in 2020 lol its not about being strongest one year or two year its about legacy how many years on the Top or dominance
@@niks7443 thats just your opinion, im with others that think thor in his prime was the strongest of all time and he smoked the competition, if he didnt cut his career short he woulve continued to dominate the sport for years
@@niks7443 It doesn't matter how many titles you win - all that does it say that you were better than the competition. Big Z is the most successful strongman ever, but Hafthor (in my opinion) is the strongest ever. I think prime Big Z would lose to prime Hafthor. Pudzianowski was a great athlete and a great ambassador for strongman but he isn't in league with these guys.
Ever since seeing your 501kg, I’ve been training to reach 250kg by the end of the year. Just reached 235kg today thanks to motivation from you. Always the best, always unbeatable. Rooting for you!
Good luck man! I believe in you!!!
@@Hafthorjulius so inspirational
Dude you have to do it now and post a video in this comment. You got this, we all know you can do it.
Haftor telling he believes in you is the fucking best preworkout you can have. 250 is also a goal to me, and realising it's only half the world record i feel small. But fuck it, let's fight for it
Damn bro the man himself responded, can't stop now.
The first lift shows how genetically gifted the guy is. Training for a short period of time and hardly knowing proper form and getting 300 kg.
I'm not sure how old he was or how much he weighed but if it's anywhere near the 200kg he weighs now, it really wasn't an impressive start to his strongman career.
@@ArtyCraftZ a 661 pound deadlift is incredibly impressive to start a strongman career no matter the weight.
@@Kyle111 300kg is very impressive for a man of average or even above average weight, but at 205kg that wasn't anywhere near even 2x bw.
@@ArtyCraftZ This isn't powerlifting, its all about maximum strength, irrespective of bodyweight
@@Lemmetry1234 Yet plenty of powerlifters 1/3rd of his weight can pull 300kg, that was my point. I'm not downplaying the nearly superhuman feat of deadlifting 501kg by saying that of course
Tons of respect to you and your family, it's time for a new chapter in your life, you got children to worry about now, and stories to tell them when they are older, thank you for being an inspiration to all of us.
The physique progress over the years was impressive too. Thor went from being big to being a giant.
Hafthor Bjornsson, you sir are a legend.
Monumental!

Happy Birthday bro. You inspire many people. You are the true BEAST!
You can see the pure joy in your father eyes. Its incredible to be able to bear witness to such amazing feats of strength, the support by family and friends is truly awesome
Hearing your wife cheering for you AND way louder than anyone else there AND being your number one fan, is absolutely PRICELESS!!!! Love it!!!!
Absolutely Absolutely yes. Well said. I also dream of having a girlfriend/ wife like Kelsey one day. ❤️
Your most inspirational video to date. Thank you for this.
It's amazing to look back and see just how far you have come. Shows what hard work and dedication can do.
Every year he looks younger 👀
My lower back was screaming after watching the first lift oml
Wow man your progression is an inspiration in itself. Amazing.
Congratulations !!! U r the legend
I’m 50 , just started deadlifting as part of my “get in shape” routine and you are the inspiration i needed. Cheers mate , shame you not competing any more , don’t think anyone could beat you for a while.
I'm also 50 and Thor is my hero and inspiration.
For real though, every deadlift and bag over bar event from 2018 onwards was an automatic win for Thor.
His calves are bigger than my future
They were measured at 23.25 inches. Biggest muscular calves ever probably
Honorable mention to Shaw, Benni Magnusson, Eddie Hall
@@yutmanrodreg3253 ma dude hittin us with facts
His calves are statistically bigger than the average man's head.
@Thor Odinson Leaner sure. No one’s had 23 inch calves. Ankles not as thick as Thor’s
59 cm calves are bigger than an average Quad just keep that in mind
That 472 at The Classic was so impressive! I remember seeing it live and was blown away. Not the heaviest but the most impressive imo. The 501 was going up and we all know it would because of all the hard work and progress that you did over the years. Amazing carrier!
Happy birthday Thor! You and your fellow strongmen, including the champions before you, are an inspiration to me. Watching you guys perform superhuman feats of strength has driven me to push my boundaries in every aspect of my life! I hope a 600+ lb deadlift is in my near future. Cheers from 🇨🇦
love the signature head nod after every lift
So good to see the journey captured this way.. the growth through dedication, commitment and effort..
Congratulations. You are one of a kind. Thx.
You're an extraordinary beast. Love you ❤️

Just that 1kg to piss off eddie hall 😂

Inspiring! Great video. You are legendary
What a fucking incredible video this is! No matter how many times I watch it, gives me goosebumps every single time!
Absolute legend and a great inspiration! Almost unbelievable how strong you are!
Plateau: 300kg
Haftor: let me add another 200kg to that
201 😉
You came a long way good stuff 🔥💪
Hard work and dedication pays off 👏🏼
I always get extremely excited and pumped by these heavy deadlift by Hafthor! Thank you champ for being a huge motivator💪
You earned all the achievements thor, congratulations, & thank you for the motivation and the strength to continue at times🙆🏼♂️
Congrats Hafthor, you sir are the strongest man in 2020, keep up the great work 💪💪
I just love this guy I don't know why, happy birthday THOR!
My two fav things:
- the hype when he lifted 473kg, with Larry Wheels and the entire Icelandic crew
- the monstrous size of this man when he lifted 501kg
I love every single lift and it's a pity he retired from the sport, he was just amazing to watch
He retired? 😮
@@addis8228 yea he's now pursuing boxing for a scheduled match with Eddie Hall that will happen next year in September 😓
@@andrewwinterdawn4115 omg really? He and Eddie? Boxing? Jesus....
@@andrewwinterdawn4115 very clever that he retired. He was the best. Those weights are destroying your body.
I thought exactly the same when I watched the 501kg lift again. No idea if it's the camera angle or the clothing or just his sheer size in the last one, but he looks so freaking massive during the 501kg lift. I wonder what his BW was compared to the ones where he lifts around 470-480kg.
What an amazing journey, well done Hafthor!
Thor is a Straight up legend you were my inspiration to get back into power lifting keep up the good Work and stay in the game please You were made for this Nothing but respect from Florida USA 🇺🇸
And the biggest TH-cam series ever, is about to commence, as Thor is determined to break the ATWR this December!!! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
You're a living beast rolling this planet god bless you ❤️
I will look up to your progress thor, your goals take time and work(no short cuts but pure grind), even legends started of somewhere. Thanks for the share and hope for the best to y'all.
The year on year comparison is incredible mate, you can see what your focus achieved. What amazing timing now to focus on health and the little one, keep on enjoying it!
Coolest vid , thor you blow my mind . Your the man . I knew yrs and yrs ago you were the one and everyone doubted my beliefs. Kick ass thor.
Wish you continue on lifting competitions. Your an inspiration to us to lift heavy weights hapfor! 💪🏋️♂️👌
SUCH GREATNESS, it is true inspiring ,you are a living legend; RESPECT
Legendary stuff Hafthor , i've watched the vid of you lifting that 501 kg so many times, still can't get over how good your form was and how easily you lifted it.
How easily he lifted it hey? 🤔 Maybe since it wasn't 501 😂
@@ilovetherejects1666It was actually 520. They just said 501 to not hurt Eddie's feelings.
Hard works and great efforts do pays off 👏👏👍👍💪💪
Thor, you are really an inspiration. Keep it up, we want to se you again on World Strongest Man!!!
What you have acheived in those 11 years of extremely hard work is nothing less than impressive. My biggest respect to you Thor.
Absolute hardwork and commitment to lift, glad you broke the record without getting hurt
That is amazing Thor! Years of hard work. Also your technical ability has massively improved I'm surprised you didn't break your back the first lift.
It's been beat and I'm in awe. Damn dude congratulations on your success.

Man you've grown so much in these years,... A man is as strong as their heart. Big fan of you... You're such an inspiration
Thor I hope to see you break many more records in the future, especially your deadlift. I consider myself blessed to be able to be alive in an era where powerlifting and strongman are evolving as quickly as they are. So many great lifters breaking each other's records on a monthly basis. Wishing you much love and great health from the USA!
He’s retired
@@lamk9729 All the greats say that 5 times before they really are. Look at Favre, Ali, Foreman, Beast Mode, etc.
1:45 Larry Wheels was SO hyped lmao, good dude
Simply you’re the best you made that look easy 👍
True legend! Respect!
My back hurted just by watching that first lift :D
Inspiring! 💪🏻👌🏻🏆🍀
you uploaded it on my birthday, great
Hafthor is an absolute legend. A strong and kind-hearted man he is
Imagine if he rode out his strongman career until his late 30s. I feel like Thor would break the deadlift record every year.
Easy way to an early death if he did that. Being a strongman at this level really takes a toll on the body.
His potential is just crazy! I'm gutted he has retired. He has so much more to give!
As cool as that would be, that would be dead from heart attack at 50 to be that big and strong and on the stronger steroids for that long.
@@Brukernavnn I agree. He's making the right decision as he's a financially stable father now. I just believe he was a legend, even if people out do him down the road.
@@garethl.2123 Just about every athlete in every sport will be out down later down the road. The times high school kids run in track would have put them in the Olympics in the past. Its all about how good you did in your day
I was gonna skip training today, but now I wont. thanks for the video man, hope all is well!
years of dedication and hard work. i don't know you but i sure as hell am proud of you!
I remember watching your progress man, unbelievable
Hafthor I love you. Role Model! Best wishes from Germany!
Respect big man 👍😏🥇
Massive respect Thor. You are the King.
one true legend and one undescribable idol for life and for showing that no matter what you face in life dont give up you will get there eventually
the signature head nod you are a legend
11 years of work in less than 4 minutes! Amazing
You are amazing “Thor Power” !!!!!!
Goosebumps on top of Goosebumps! Every single time I watch this Unfathamably Legendary video!
#TheKing 👑
Im waiting for "home warriors" who will tell this man isnt the holder of 501 kg world record, i mean i love both Eddie and Thor, but that is just sad how people can be so stupid and jealous to think that this record wasnt official, you can see this from his lasts deadlifts all the work he is done.
Big love my man, remember that there are always people who hate for nothing, but there also people who want become like you, youre there exemple.
Im sorry for bad english, but i think you get the idea.
Good luck for next year buddy, i trust in you
Its a hella lot of work and a big achievement but no hate or shis like that eddie had more pressure because he did it in front of a 10000 people crowd and thor did it well....in his home
@@monkemaster1337
True
It's in Guinness book of world records though so you don't have to worry. Fak them
501Kg is still 501Kg. It doesn't matter where you lift it.
@@monkemaster1337 Well, plenty of STRONGMEN claim that they perform better in front of the crowd so... Your argument is invalid. Beside, the "competition" at which Eddie set the record wasn't really a competition. It was organised around Eddie, he was allowed to set the rules, it took place in his neighbourhood, his personal equipment was used. You have the right to criticize Hafthor but you can't deny that Eddie's record wasn't set in an objective way.
When a man grows muscles on top of his muscles. Legend!
Nice to see all the work and progression during those years! Hope you will have the chance to repeat your 501 kg lift during a competition!
Haphy. The sport of strongman is going to miss you bro. Good luck on your future endeavors. Much love to the family.
Great video 👍
It’s a known fact that if a person goes gym and doesn’t comment on someone’s form in a weightlifting video their head explodes.
Without no doubt №1 in the world !!! Congratulations with this goal ! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Before and after, so different. Amazing transformation. Halfthor to become Real Thor. Stay strong man.
A human lifting half a tonne is just incredible!
I've got to say Haf sometimes I wonder how you didn't blow discs out early in your career.
I know about that all too well.
Dedication is everything, well done big man.
An awesome greatest lifts video.
Incredible motivating!
Incredible. Awesome video. Strongman takes longer than any other sport to be truly dominant at
