Well, the way you could hold off the longest, is not think, fear, imagine yourself being somewhat else. Like a rock holding life and death on both sides
He can’t control his pain. Only able to control the physical outcome of the pain and the subsequent reaction. He has great control and inner discipline+ control as well as outer strength.
@@BeardOfPower7crazy part is that Mark was never a full time strongman. He casually hung around the top ten without dedicating his entire life to the sport.
@@ChasingChevy I’m not trying to be pedantic. I just don’t like how people always give credit to someone’s mind when in reality it’s often just a physical advantage .
@@blackops9572well how he got his physical strength AND his mind flys over yout head, i dont like how people always hate or try to deny someone that clearly knows his craft. You are all 2much on tiktok or shorts and learn nothing about reality ON YOUR OWN!
All of these men are impressive but the physical and calm control using meditation from the last guy is crazy amazing. Congrats to everyone especially that last guy.
The contrast is crazy. Everyone els is super tensed up and flexing every muscle while the last dude looked like he was meditating and only flexing the muscles that he needed. In the close up you wouldn’t be able to tell if he’s doing a strength competition or bowing his head to pray. So calm.
@@minimallyleah7208 I think that he meant that he finds it scary that the strongman is standing there unfazed by the pillars(That are by no means light) while the rest are visibly struggling
A lot of people don't know about cardio vasculaire circule,when you calm yourself you control your cardio vasculaire Which leads to a stable nervous system that it can make the grip so strong under huge pressure,this gentleman is called inner peace
@@Micheal31046 exactly mate , calming down your cardio always gets you concentrate,even when you are in dangerous situation and you calm yourself and don't freak out you will realize that you actually not gonna get hurt at all and figure it out .
I see what you're going for, but UI isn't a power boost, just a form of precog pretty much. He's closer to sage mode if anything, but i understand what you meant.
He looks so calm. Was initially thinking he's meditating until the sweat started to run. Love strong people. There's a strong mind in a strong body, and this one seems beyond compare.
I am Speechless. His mental power is beyond measure. The true strength of a man is in the heart and not in the muscles. He is totally in another level from the rest of them. My Utmost RESPECT!!!
He's just thinking about all the pain he's live through to get to this point and giving all the pain and to the exercise and just staying focused a hundred respects to this man
Mark Felix is the Worlds Strongest Man that never was, if you were to look at his career, you'd call it middling, always finishing decently but rarely a champion and never in WSM... but he only started his career at 37 when most other athletes have retired and is still competing 20 years later. For me, he is probably the most naturally talented athelete in the sport that there has ever been and if he had dedicated his life to strongman 20 years earlier he would have undoubtedly been one of the biggest names in the sport we would have ever have seen.
Never ever in the history of this sport was black man a world's strongest man champion.... It's like blacks are dominating in running, whites are dominating in power....
@@vvoof2601 I strongly doubt that some black person will be the strongest man in the world one day... This dream is the same as that a white person will be the world champion in the 100 meters... Strength sports are what white people dominate..... any strength sport.... for example arm wrestling as well.... always whites. And be strong only in one category, that's not enough my friend
he's meditating, he's not fighting what(ever) he feels.. this state is the most powerful in a lot lot situations and needs a bit practice but it's truly amazing 😮
They’re all crazy strong, but composure is a form of strength everyone loves to see. No matter what you’re doing, if you hold yourself together calmly, you’re at the top of the
The others seem to invest way to much energy in pulling the pieces together but the calm guy just hols onto everything at the energy needed to keep them together.
That man is just built different. All those guys look pretty big but he looks natural. From what I've heard and from what i can judge, that man would be in a league of his own if he'd started competing at a younger age. Regardless he is beyond impressive
Much respect Staying calm while holding a heavy weight helps regulate breathing, reduce unnecessary muscle tension, maintain focus, lower heart rate, and improve pain tolerance, all of which enhance endurance and control.
He was meditating right through it like it wasnt even happening, while simultaneously engaging every muscle he had. That is both terrifying, and awe inspiring. Never fight that man.
I remember seeing this event. This dude was impressive on that event. It’s blocking all the noise and naysayers and locking into yourself in a manner that no one can undo it.
Felix is the nicest guy you could meet. Used to be a bouncer back in 2002. I used to work at a local pub. he used to come in before his shift and just get a pint of water. Knowing I was only 16 I couldn't get into the club he used to look after. Every Friday and Saturday night we would go out after our shift and we would always try and leave the club he worked at until last. The girls I used to work with all got in but me he used to tell me to get in a taxi and go home. You couldn't argue with him. I never ever saw anyone try it with him. A gentle giant and a gentleman
The last guy is the definition of well trained. I can and will never achieve the state of mind he has. The others are the same. The final guy achieved a stable mind, while having exceptional strength and incredible endurance. He is truly a goal for anyone who works to become strong in earnest.
He looks like he's sleeping! He's not even huffing and puffing, his muscles don't look like they're straining at all. He looks so at peace. That is amazing.
i think the major difference physicall aside from the already pointed out mental stuff is that he does NOT PULL the pillars. every other contestant seemed to try to PULL the pillars while the last guy merely used enough power to HOLD them in place. you can see it in the shoulder placements. everyone has them rised to some degree, showing them to be trying to pull. last man had his shoulders lowered more than the others. he allowed the weight of the pillars to have its effect to a point and then only had to hold. if you pull you inevitably allow the pillar to swing back down again, causing more strain on you. more so you pull the pillar unevenly so they swing back down different tearing on you. He allowed both to go as far as his arms allowed him to and then just stood there.
👏👏👏 Such peace under such physical extremes. Truly in control of his vessel. This man is undeniably mentally strong beyond his physical strength. Would not surprise me to hear he is spiritual
Imma be real, looking like you fell asleep while everyone else is clearly fighting for their lives is pretty metal
Well, the way you could hold off the longest, is not think, fear, imagine yourself being somewhat else. Like a rock holding life and death on both sides
Balancing gigantic concrete pillars like this is pretty metal too.😉
Well said homie 💯😭🙌🏾
the power of meditation
But really. Meditation has some sick endurance and strength powers.
I don't know about you but that looks like it really feels great on the shoulders and back
That dude wasn’t even there, his body was, but his mind was somewhere else.
Probably wondering when can I get these chains off?
Bro is an absolute unit. In the end his strength didn't give out. He hit his time goal and just dropped the pillars.
Definitely trying not to think about whatever is going on.. its a mental and physical battle...

Beat me to it.
I got crazy chills seeing the difference between being strong and being mighty. Dude is extremely calm! As if he’s not even using his full strength.
It's just an approach to avoid pain..some yell,some laugh ,some being calm...what u all talking about 🧐
This is his best event. Always at the top. Other events he's average or just below average.
Definitivamente ele não estava utilizando metade da sua verdadeira força
That man was using 1% of his full power.
Jokes aside, I hope to have that level of calm when I'm in the midst of something so overwhelming.
@@BeardOfPower7crazy part is that Mark was never a full time strongman. He casually hung around the top ten without dedicating his entire life to the sport.

Underrated comment 😂
Take a note little bois. THIS is what locked in really looks like. My man shut off his exhaustion with his mind.
If it could rip you apart it would. Live in it and revel in that you are here and alive to feel it.
I think he said something to the effect of "once you realize it wont rip your arms off it becomes easy" once
Controling his breath, keeping focus on the task, being in the moment, he knwos what he is doing.
Calmest person in room.
More calm he is, more focus he was. Also he is more scary than person who keep talking while holding gun
This man mastered the calmness and steady mind

For people who don't follow strongman, this is Mark Felix. He's also almost 60 years old, absolute beast.
It’s crazy when Mark does the Hercules hold, he genuinely looks like he is taking a nap on the job
I swear he goes to sleep when he does it

His name is Mark felix. He broke the record for the Hercules hold after the age of 50! Ive read he's really nice too. Absolutely inspiring 🙌 ❤
Still works as a plasterer aswell
What I would pay just to be a fly on the wall in this guys mind. This was a level of inner peace I have never seen before.
My man is in “God Mode”🙌
“Light work, no reaction”

Calm and collective is the trademark for those who are mighty!!
"Weakness is just resistance to pain. Embrace and choose it and you will find the strength to continue."
Sometimes even the biggest muscles don't determine how strong the person truly is.
