Title: The greatest deadlift of all time?
Post by: O.Z. on June 11, 2015, 12:14:31 AM
Konstantin Konstantinov in 2009, 939 pounds raw.
He was 275 pounds.

to me it's the greatest dl of all time.
KK discussed about it recently on a video. Raw, no belt, with an ipf bar, which is really important because too many so called WR deadlift were done with texas bar and non regular plate.

Koklyaev was close in recent pl event in Sydney. 422,5 kg attempt:



He can beat Konstantinov record one day. His official best to this day is 417,5:


Found a video, after that event in Sydney Koklyaev was giving seminars with Konstantinov and other russians. Showing off grip strength:

Pretty impressive too !

Surely the current WR by Benni is the greatest? Or has Eddie Hall's lift at the Arnold eclipsed that?

Right on bro!  A 4x, repeat FOUR-TIMES bw DL is close to greatest of all time.  ^ This guy would have to lift 1100lbs to match that.

Outside of just the raw numbers aspect what's the bodyweight to pulled weight ratio that makes it a great pull?

For example 150lb guy pulls 400lbs vs 250lb guy pulls 600lbs?

In '82@123,Lamar Gant deadlifted 5.18x bodyweight. This WR still stands. (Iirc)
In '88@132, he DL'd 5.17x BW. This also still stands. (Iirc)
The '82 DL's the longest-standing WR in powerlifting, one of the longest in sports.
Truly the two greatest deadlifts  lb for lb ever, all the more amazing for being 6yrs apart.

Though the huge poundages that some of the previously mentioned are mind boggling
That a human body can lift such amounts regardless of body weight.

Impressive. !!!
What bodyweight were you.

When I was competing my friend pulled 325 @ 90k back in 83.
It stood as a world u23 record until just a few yrs ago.

Sadly for me deadlifts were the poor lift compared to squats & bench.
Anatomically my leverages are not great for the lift.

Obviously the Benedikt Magnusson deadlift comes to mind. The seemingly did it at ease, no struggle whatsoever to lock it out:



However the Ed Coan 901 at 220 is more impressive to me. Sure, the fact he only weighed 220 is amazing but what is even more impressive is that this lift came during a full meet i.e. after already maxing out on squats and bench. Consider how fatigued the lower back and legs would be after a max attempt on the squat and then think about pulling such a weight. This fact is very often not considered when single lift records are discussed.

I know he's using wraps, but to be fair he doesn't hitch it up and doesn't look like he's even wearing a belt.

Prides himself on doing it with no belt or suit, just wraps under the strongman rules. I'd like to know how much he pulls without the straps, would be surprised if it wasn't a big healthy number.
