Well.. Magnus actually is stronger than Eddie Hall. He lifted like x4 times his body weight. There is no bodybuilder or strongman who actually can do that.
@@rydercollins5553I think Eddie uses momentum/looks like he does because of his mass. Magnus is being pulled to his max by the sheer weight and can’t leverage his body weight the same way

@@doposudit’s easier to pull heavy weight relative to size when your smaller It’s like a ant bragging to a elephant he is stronger because he can lift more compared to his size Cool I guess but relative strength is very different from absolute strength Lots of people are stronger than Eddie pound per pound but those same people would be way weaker than him if you scaled them up
For the guys questioning stuff, get used to the fact that some guys are just unbelivable strong. Wether they be smaller or bigger. Pound for pound, Magnus is crazy strong.
We all know how crazy strong Magnus is. The amazing part is that he's training with Eddie Hall, a world strongest man and Magnus is pulling that thing easier than Eddie, not some random buff gym dude.
probably built really dense muscle fibers, this is explained in the book called "power to the people" by Pavel Tsatsouline, that kind of workout really works.
well elite climbers are pound by pound one of the strongests human in the planet of sports--- there are some hard works that people in 3 world country start at less than 10 years old that are near this.. but not much activities develpo that kind of strnght
I'm pretty confident if you put Will Bosi or Jakob Shupert in those competitions they'd annihilate the world records. A very good but not world class climber, Emil Abrahamsson, broke a few of them by bodyweight by just showing up to a grip strength competition
No not at all. We all have amazing potential...the difference is most people never try...it is a total cop out calling someone 'a freak of nature'......the truth is most people are just plain lazy and not willing to put the true, honest, hard work in. Too worried about caressing their ego instead :)
It's not just pure strength but also the knowledge of how to use your hands in the most efficient way and a very good feeling for friction that you develope as a climber
And if you're old you have to make sure it's neither strongman Magnus Samuelsson nor Magnus Ver Magnusson. If you're really, REALLY old, you might remember Magnus Magnusson from the BBC television quiz show Mastermind.
Naa, he was just swinging and wrenching his bodyweight over the bar. I agree that Eddie's reps were short, but at least he's using the right muscles. And 'getting your chin over the bar' is completely pointless anyway. It's a back exercise, not a neck exercise.
@oyuyuy I've been drinking so I'm not going to pull my punches. Shut the fuck up! Strongmen do not and I mean do not lift with good form. Their entire existence is based a moving shit from A to B. There is no quality in that. Now if if asked me about my admiration for Strongmen it is high, it is sacrosanct. But Eddie is moving weight in this excercise that mountain climber is moving mountains.
@@oyuyuy Huh? Magnus stayed relatively straight. Eddie swung back as he pulled down. Ideally, you get into starting position, then you lean back, and you keep that lean the whole way up and down each rep. If you're swinging forward as it goes up, raising your ass off the seat a bit, then sorta sitting down and leaning back as you pull, it gets cheaty.

@@ControlledChaos-rk5tk Compared to Brits? Wtf? As a Brit we are very self depreciating. Our whole humour is taking the piss out of ourselves and each other. We don't generally boast in the UK. Anyone who does is seen as a dick tbh. You clearly don't know the UK
Its great to see these guys from different disciplines get together, I saw Magnus be impressed/surprised how far a big guy like Eddy got climbing. Makes for great content.
It's not really 140kg though, but super impressive regardless. The lever where they put the weights is significantly shorter than the one on which they pull, so the "felt weight" is not 140kg but less. Those levers would have to be of equal lengths for it to feel like the actual weight.
That's just incredible. I knew Magnus is strong, but this is beyond strong. I'm around 220lbs and lifting for 10 years, considered strong by just about anyones standards and my working sets on it are 70kg. I couldn't move 80kg per side for 10 reps. He moved 140 😮
@@zerosilver87 Where do you see me claiming I am? Although, I technically am. Compared to the average I'm easily top 1-5% in just about any strength metric. I only compared myself to him to paint the picture. As someone who's a regular guy that significantly outweighs Magnus and lifts for a long period of time, I'm getting absolutely mogged by his strength. Compared to competitive strength athletes? Nope, not strong. But that's like a 6'5 guy not being tall compared to pro basketball players. Would you say "You ain't tall" to him?

Is magnus just the ideal build for everything? Bc he is uninhibited by any sort of size issues, he fits in any car, on any bike, can sit and stand in places normally, is very mobile AND as it turns out, strong as all hell.
Magnus does this sort of thing all of the time. He goes around freaking people out with his climbing ability, power, and grip strength. Truly a legendary man.
This young man is very impressive his connective muscle tissue must be off the charts so strong for his body weight doesn’t seem possible well done young man
@@Lumi_nance That may be thanks for letting me know but he looks a lot younger and obviously as a lot of miles less on the clock than Eddie regarding supplement abuse and Compared to me at 64 years old he is a young man thanks for your update
He isnt doing half reps -- he is too big so his range of motion is just that. But his form is way, way better than magnus when going on the heaviest loads and way less cheaty. Nonetheless, Magnus is fuking strong for being able to do those weights, even with very poor form.
@@Se7a Eddies form in no dimension is better than Magnus. Not only is it even harder for Magnus to even hold that shit being smaller the weight alone shoukd bully him way more.
@@troelsknudsen253no it isn’t. For pure muscle contraction and activation it‘s better to use straps. So you can completely concentrate and control the movement, not having the fear of loosing your grip But in m opinion it’s better to train without straps as long as it‘s possible, because otherwise your grip strength will never be high enough for your back strength any more
It warms my heart to see how kind and humble these giants of their fields can be with each other, no matter the different in domain or physical size. I think Magnus is right, square/cube law with body weight proportionality on a lift then being easier the smaller you are.
Yeah, nice to see Eddie just be at awe with someone... Average... Obviously Magnus isn't average, but stats wise, he's basically a skinny teenager after a year of training, pulling double bodyweight with no specific training. He was shook 😂 Props to both
What’s crazy to me is how insanely clean Magnus form is. The pulldowns before twice his bw were pretty much flawless, the pulls were low with full range. Just…….crazy Go to a gym and try to do a pulldown at that pace with half the weight and you’ll realize what madness this is
imagine getting a compliment like THAT from Eddie Hall…if anyone knows STRENGTH, it’s fckn EDDIE lol Magnus, pound for pound, strongest man on earth 😂😂 put him in the comp!
This is one of the few times I've seen Eddie legitimately impressed by someone. You can tell he's barely believing what he's seeing from a guy weighing 160lbs (72kg). The other thing is that Eddie is insanely strong in pull exercises so keeping up with even a fraction of his strength at 72kg is just mind blowing.
For a little perspective on Magnus's background btw, he isn't just a retired pro climber/calisthenics/youtube guy. For most of his career Magnus was legitimately one of the highest level rock climbers in the world. His hardest climb was a route called Ali Hulk, which was graded 9b at the time; for reference very few people in history have managed to climb a 9b route (with the list of people having gone beyond 9b to 9b+ and 9c even slimmer), and he's also completed a number of other seriously impressive routes.

Lol how No roads nothing Just pull ups Building muscles .connections.tissues. I'm 74kg I'm not like him even close but let me tell you me at work lifting 80kg doors with glass inside just like that I can lift 47kg right arm and 42lef No one can stop me or beat me When I push there is no stopping If I would not smoke buds for 27years if I do my pull ups and push ups and bike for 2months straight man man my power grows to incredible numbers Not like him obviously but still I'm proud of myself
Magnus' upper body is one heck of a synchronised machine. We watch him perform effortless feats on his videos, but I think very few of us has the requisite mental fortitude and motivation to undergo the training that he puts himself through to stay in this peak form the entire time.
This is genuinely mind-blowing. Incredible strength, the one thing that's interesting is that Magnus, as a climber seems to a deep knowledge of his own body. When he's working on machines meant to focus on one exercise, he engages his entire body for maximum strength. The fear of one point of failure = death as a rock climber will probably do that.
It just shows there is something too be said for high rep lower weight training. And for training outside machines/calibrated weights so that not all forces are balanced out.
im 6ft4 120kg been going gym for a very long time, magnus is stronger than me, his muscle fibers must be SO dense because he doesn't even look that big, ripped sure but not big, this is inhuman levels of strength for his weight.... i need to start rock climbing.
I always remember it said before that the strongest people in the world PFP were Climbers at number 1, Gymnasts at 2 and Judo players at 3. The rest who knows, but those three were always spoken about in natural training PFP

That row was SIX HUNDRED AND EIGHTEEN POUNDS GOOD GOD. The dude weighs about 150lbs
Great strict form and range of motion Magnus 👍👍👍👍
Dang he’s strong
I've been training for most of my 61 years and have never seen anyone stronger than Magnus.
i dont understand how he is so strong.
It's definitely not normal
A lot his size are strong . Never underestimate .
Lol how
No roads nothing
Just pull ups
Building muscles .connections.tissues.
I'm 74kg
I'm not like him even close but let me tell you me at work lifting 80kg doors with glass inside just like that
I can lift 47kg right arm and 42lef
No one can stop me or beat me
When I push there is no stopping
If I would not smoke buds for 27years if I do my pull ups and push ups and bike for 2months straight man man my power grows to incredible numbers
Not like him obviously but still I'm proud of myself
Scandinavian natural strength :) Pure native european heritage
His entire body is a pulling engine. He spends his days hanging from poor holds by a few fingers, it makes gym equipment so comparatively easy
That sound Eddie makes when he forces out a rep, would make an excellent sample for a snare lol
Magnus is a powerlifter in a alternate universe lol.
Magnus' upper body is one heck of a synchronised machine. We watch him perform effortless feats on his videos, but I think very few of us has the requisite mental fortitude and motivation to undergo the training that he puts himself through to stay in this peak form the entire time.
Legendary pulling strenght
This is genuinely mind-blowing. Incredible strength, the one thing that's interesting is that Magnus, as a climber seems to a deep knowledge of his own body. When he's working on machines meant to focus on one exercise, he engages his entire body for maximum strength. The fear of one point of failure = death as a rock climber will probably do that.
man the 280 kg row is impossible 🤯
6:33 - The Moment you looking for
Crazy to think magnus can match powerlifters twice his weight just by climbing.
He also does a lot of weighted pull ups. It’s not just climbing.
He definitely can not match powerlifters twice his weight. His squat, bench and deadlift are all not good at all just fyi
@@firepillow He would be compeitive at 155lbs tho. top 5.
Magnus has immense upper back strength his squat would be mediocre at best
It just shows there is something too be said for high rep lower weight training. And for training outside machines/calibrated weights so that not all forces are balanced out.
Gotta say one of the most impressive things on the Tube
Very strong
Love how impressed eddie is hahaha. He was in awe!
im 6ft4 120kg been going gym for a very long time, magnus is stronger than me, his muscle fibers must be SO dense because he doesn't even look that big, ripped sure but not big, this is inhuman levels of strength for his weight.... i need to start rock climbing.
I always remember it said before that the strongest people in the world PFP were Climbers at number 1, Gymnasts at 2 and Judo players at 3. The rest who knows, but those three were always spoken about in natural training PFP
nobody asked for your height or weight. keep it to yourself.
Seeing eddie be impressed is so entertaining
Eddie, Magnus is fucking Popeye for you!!!! LOL (INSANE POWER)
