I know there is a video of him doing 10 "clap pull-ups" at over 300lbs on youtube somewhere. He pulls himself up with enough explosiveness and on the way up he lets go and claps his hands together and grabs the bar again and does 10 like that. Pretty cool. I had never seen that before.

one arm chins at over 300lbs?  any video of this?

:( :(

Jesse Marunde. Born September 14, 1979. Passed July 25, 2007.

RIP bro.

Strongman Jesse Marunde passed away around 10pm Wednesday night at the farm in Sequim WA after doing high rep squats. Apparently it was a massive coronary.





At least Getbiggers have a reason not to squat now.

Here is one story. Jess and his wife were in Philly a few years ago for a contest. Jesse had me drive him around to every t-shirt place in the city because he wanted a specific shirt to wear in the contest. He wanted a 'Strawberry Shortcakes' shirt....remember that old kiddie cartoon? Do you know how hard it is to find a 3X strawberry shortcackes t-shirt?? We never did find one. It was a pretty funny day though walking down south street in Philly with him, John Anderson and Shannon Hartnet. Everybody just stopped and stared at all of them, one of those duck tour busses even stopped and everybody was gawking at them.

Jess was just a fun loving, positive, focused guy. Not a mean bone in his body I don't think. He and his crew of training partners trained harder than just about anybody out there.

HAHAHA!  I can only imagine!  that is so funny!  and I saw that "clap pull ups" vid and I had never seen anything like it.  Incredible!

Was he getting check ups by a doctor?

Your health is your own responsibility.

Whether he was or not I'm sure he knew that he was taking a tremendous risk by maintaining such a high bodyweight.  It is sad that he lost the gamble but hopefully others will learn from his death and choose to lower their weight.

He was a tall guy and actually pretty lean.

There are many others who are a lot heavier and shorter and they don't have health problems whatsoever.

being that heavy, whether it is lean weight or not is unhealthy.  Some will get away with it and just live a few years shorter than they would have otherwise.  others like Jesse will pay a greater price.  Hopefully this death will help people see the consequences of getting big.

steroids make you TOO strong for your fragile body that we should be more respectful too. our body isnt some punching bag


maybe it got something to do with heavy squats for high reps??  I remember one time going all out on the hacksquat, way below parallel, i wanted to do 40 fast reps, on the 27 rep, my whole body was screaming, till it hit me! i got a tremendous headache, and it lasted for days. High rep, training legs aint that healthy, is it??

my bad, actually it was clapping pull ups as Steve said, still pretty impressive, he also used to flip 45 pound plates in the air and catch them in a pinch grip.

His website is down, probably due to server overload.

It just isn't fair that this guy, who is just 4 or 5 years older than me, should die so young...

And I was proud of palming a basketball off the dribble.

Monster grip strength.

just heard the sad news. I met Jesse and his wife a few times and they are both great people and super sweet. My condolences go out to his wife and little baby. What a tragedy...I'll be praying for the comfort of his wife and that she gets through this horrific time.

I've been able to do it since 8th grade.  My hands are pretty large, but I've met a lot of people with bigger hands who can't palm it at all.  I think it's because my thumb is flexible.

Will some of you folks stop talking trash about Marunde dying
« Reply #124 on: July 26, 2007, 01:16:00 PM »
You know folks, I joke around a lot but there is a line I draw in the sand as to what I joke about.


Joking about Marunde isn't one of them.


So, cut it out folks.  Ever give your condolences or shut the fuck up
