IMO, the real record is still in the high 8's.
The barbell Bolton uses (Texas/Oakie) is softer, longer and thinner. But it's still one helluva feat.
Bolton definitely is a massive deadlifter, lets focus on his feat and fcuk the comparisons.

I would imagine a softer, longer bar would have some spring to it and help you get the weight up by having a whiplash effect as opposed to a shorter, heavier bar with less give.

Andy Bolton! Billyguns!
Oh... 1003! :o

i don't make internet claims or comment negatively on anyones physique because i don't ever plan on posting pictures or videos
but i will say i went to college on a powerlifting scholarship,and i have never been out deadlifted by anybody in my weight class ever
i only did powerlifting in highschool,when i went to college i ended up graduating way early and had a shooting scholarship take over the powerlifting scholarship

Drugs, deadlift suit, or whatever (!),this is just an INHUMAN FEAT OF STRENGTH!!!
Forget the unbelievable lower back, hip, and leg, raw brute strength to lift such a GARGANTUAN poundage for a minute and think of the additional gripping strength needed to merely hang onto a bar loaded to 1000+ lbs and not literally rip the flesh off of your hands (as has happened often to many super heavy weight deadlifters)!

Drugs, deadlift suit, or whatever (!),
says SO much about why its all BS these days - enjoy the artificial - you embrace it anyway

That is, without a doubt, one of the most impressive lifts of all time.
Insane.

They have legit high school powerlifting teams in your state? That's awesome! Is that in Texas? What was your high school total?
-

That's a no lift.
He never locked it out, it was obvious from his reaction as well, he wasn't sure the lift was passed.
A shame that WPO gives white lights to everything.

agreed

In my opinion it`s a good lift , I don`t like the judges who want you to pass the vertical to
get the lift, too bad for your back.
He was all the way up.

If he didn't have the strength to pull all the way up, he shouldn't get the lift.
Look at Boltons lift in the past (here he is with Benni):
YIP
Zack
-
I have looked at the 2 videos and the one with the 1003 pounds is better than the other and is a good lift.
This happens when the lifter does no pass the vertical you are not too sure he locked up but in my opinion he did.
A hell of a weight even with drugs and suit
-

yes i am from texas and in a few years i think powerlifting will overcome highschool football here if things keep going the way they are going now
my highschool football team sucked but my school had a very high budget for athletics,so we had a 10,000 square foot gym with a losing football team,so to keep our high budget they added powerlifting , and then the rest of the state followed
but again i do not want to talk about my totals,size,or bodyfat % because i am not a pro so i dont think there that important
but if you really want to know pm me

lol good lift
but i still find Benedikt Magnusson more impressive...simply because he goes freaking nuts before he lifts the weight...i always lol when i watch his videos

Hedge, as you and I - being the informed gentlemen that we are - have correctly discussed before, NOBODY [within the realms of current drug technology, and using legit tackle/technique etc] will ever pull 1000, not Bolton, not Benni... NOBODY!!!
You take away at least 5% for the wonky bar, 5% for the briefs, and goodness knows what for the shitty technique and... ta da, you are faced with the concrete truth that [as per the above caveat] the human machine just isnt capable of such a lift
Thankyou, and goodnight

From the Youtube video, I just watched I agree... he never locked out. But man, he sure did pull that weight to 7/8 completion very fast and very smooth. It almost looked like his grip was failing. The head judge gave him that quick down signal and the bar immediately went down.
Regardless huge pull.
-
Of course, to be a "perfect lift", satisfaction of the following rules would normally apply...
Causes for disqualification, resulting in no lift, are:
Any downward movement of the bar before the lifter reaches the upright position
Failure to stand erect, with shoulders back and knees locked
Supporting the bar on the thighs during the lift
Movement of the feet in any direction during the lift (rocking on the heels is permitted)
Lowering the bar before the head judge's signal
Allowing the bar to return to the platform without maintaining control with both hands
The only real problem I saw with the limited side/frontal view of the youtube lift video was the inability to determine if the shoulders were rotated back and the knees were locked. As commented already, only a full side view of the lift could make that determination. Regardless, it is an unbelieveable feat of brute strength!
One wonders what the great old-time strongman Hermann Goerner, who was credited with deadlifting 850 lbs. in front of creditable witnesses in the 1920's, could have done with the aid of doping (supposed to add roughly 1/3 to ones' lifts) plus the aid of a deadlift suit (another 50-100 lbs.)? Interesting speculation.
-
Regardless - I feel the human machine CAN deadlift over a grand.
Matt, thats bollocks, you may 'feel' it LOL, but it is based on fuck all
As I said, take away the briefs, the wonky bar and shit judging, and then tell my anyone will pull 1000.. they wont!
Jesus, you guys are adding 70+ pounds onto an already exteme lift, of which, is an extreme feat from the envelope of human endeavour
To nonchalantly add 70+ pounds to such an extreme lift is a joke, and cannot [as I have outlined] be substantiated in any way, shape or form. Of course, this explains why you guys resort to vague romantic rhetoric rather than face the truth in front of you
I will personally eat Cory Eversons shit if ever the day comes when such a lift occurs
To repeat, Bolton used a wonky bar, lifting briefs, had favourable judging, AND is best mates with Brian Batcheldor, thus will be coked off his fucking tits on more than mere steroids. He will be using every novel peptide hormone available, he will be mainlining GH/IGF/EGF/MGF for all they are worth ....and yet he STILL cannot pull the 1000?
YET you guys continue with this nonsense? come on guys, I mean really
-
Yes, but would you eat Jeff Everson's shit if that day comes?
Matt, would you let a girl piss on you?
:D

IMO, the real record is still in the high 8's.

what you said is the most retarded post in history.. The guy pulled over 1000, and you say IMO the record is still in the high 8's..
retard... Bolton pulled 971 at the Arnold, in front of everybody... and he pulled even more now... so the record is in the 1000's not the 8's..

you cant, you wont

Still blown away by that lift.

The human machine can most definitely deadlift 1,000 pounds.
Pebbles would also let a girl pee on him. :D
I tell you Matt, watch your girl having a piss in the woods (plaid skirt, no panties etc) and tell me you wouldnt want to bang the shit out of her, you wont, you cant!

Thats a rediculous lift!
Full lock out or not.
Id be happy with 750lbs.

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nice followup.
By the way, the squatting in a plaid skirt visual is a good one, but it would be sexier without the pee. Am I old fashioned?

Look at the lift.
Does it look like a complete pull to lockout to you?
IMO, it does not.
He's ALMOST deadlifted 1003 lbs IMO.
But that's like Gareth Southgate ALMOST scoring a penalty, or Al Gore ALMOST winning the president election.
Close, but no cigar.
