Need to alternate grip as you loose blood flow to your hands holding them up in the air for those 2 mins gripping tight. So just need to briefly drop 1 arm and shake and flex to get blood flow to ur grip again. Doesnt help the bar rolls as its not secured. So alternate grip is best technique
That is true. The bar is spinning. This guy is an actor . You can try and you can experience. You wont be able to hang more than 5 secs and you will be ripped by 50 euro at least.
@Zako it’s not cheating people, it’s taking advantage of their naivety. Everyone always thinks it’s not that hard but it is in fact quite difficult. Not impossible at all though. The spinning bar is what makes it really tough cause it requires pure grip strength and endurance.
@@123manny321 nah its not. Defebition of cheating is "act dishonestly or unfairly to gain an advantage" its not dishonest or unfair so long as the people know the rules. People overestimating their physical capabilities is entirely on them.
I don’t see the difficult for also 2 minutes i do this and i never had any problem ..really you can t !?i don’t know ..if you can’t do this when you must do 10 -15 traction (minimum basically)?
3 seconds one hand? My local 2 minute hang challenge uses a large 2" diameter rotating bar & I could only manage hanging one hand @ a time for 1 minute. It's so much harder than a fixed bar, you have to pinch-grip the bar from underneath because the bar spins.
it is surprisingly easy with consistency. I wasnt able to hang for more than 5 seconds at the beginning of this year, now I enjoy doing it for full songs in my playlist 😂 (also im 30) You can do anything ❤
@@andrewmathematician7443 I'm not entirely sure but I think it does have to do with action potential, because lactic acid is acidic, that makes it hard for ions to transfer normally, thus making action potential hard to execute

This guys fromVenezuelan, a rock climber who used to train in Edinburgh, most people can't hold on to a over sized bar with one hand never mind shake the arm out! The guy walking up behind him completed the challenge with a static two hand grip.

Watched a video where a rock climber did a hang test where he couldnt change his grip. He said he could hang 3-4 times longer, if he was allowed to change his grip, and alternatly shake his hands.
It didn't seem to show any evidence of the bar being set up for spinning, which is curious. With the swaying as the hands alternating as they were regripped, I expected there should be at least some movement of the fingertips up and down if the bar was spinning freely as these are normally set up to do. Perhaps it was actually a fixed bar configuration to encourage onlookers to give it a whirl 😉
A climber, they seem to physically shit on everything, ninja warrior, bar hangs and large mountains while every steroid knob in the local gym lifts a static weight and then shouts woooooo, get money or stroooong.
I’ve climbed with Jose Luis many times at alien bloc “Edinburgh” ........he’s an absolute animal!! Not a paid actor just a solid climber from Venezuela 🇻🇪 who lives/lived in Edinburgh 💪🏻🏴🇻🇪🧗🏻♂️
i did this many times in my city back in China with exact the same technique. Not all places allow single hand switching, and some bars are much thicker than normal gym bar which you can’t even have full grip onto it. So better check out the place b4 u try. Generally, thinner bar, allow single hand switching, bar with rough surface for grip are easier to do. But any way, if you win too often, they will not allow you to play. I won about 2000 CNY and no more place in my city allow me to play.
This is clearly an ad for this challenge. The guy was probably his friend or something and pretend to be a random guy to show that this challenge is possible. In reality, it's almost impossible because the bar itself would be spinning (the vendor can lock and unlock it). All just a scam.
Ohhhh so that's the trick! Cause I am a fatass that can barely do 10 pull-ups, but I tried to hang still and went for 2 mins no problem. I thought I was superhuman or something :D I see how a spinning bar would require a lot more grip strength, as opposed to relying on friction
Lmao 1:15 dude trying to distract him for the last ten seconds and he shakes his head at him. How about ... Double or nothing, make the VENDOR hang for 100!!!
I did this 2 times for my wife and afterwards they didnt let me, because i told them i do mountain climbing as a hobby.... Its more of technique and endurance then strength...
Yeh I have no issues doing it at the gym but honestly I can’t tell if the bar spins but I can tell it’s slippery AF lol and my guess is they might slightly spin it later on so you are under the impression it’s fatigue that caused you to lose grip
@@arnoldb1893 hmm well even is that is true and it does spin he still would have lost for taking a hand off if he tried it here, you have to hang elbows locked, you can’t bend elbows and you can’t remove a hand at all or you lose
Magnus mitbo and Pete also did the challenge yesterday....Pete around 210 seconds....and Magnus around 180 seconds with open hands not using his thumbs....savage!
This bar is frictionless because of thes flat ABEC3 needle ball bearings on the ends. Magnus and Pete would both win on this bar but with a much reduced time. I want to see them do it for real.
this comment section shows the exact reason why those challenges are making the owners so much money. Everyone is so incredibly overconfident and underestimating how hard it is. Guess the organizers just like giving people 100 for nothing, right? :D
Yes you should try them out once. It’s a special bar that rolls. Imagine hanging a barbell and holding on that, it’s way different than hanging from a static bar
