 Well...how long did DRAGO hold it at the top while the Russian media and his team of trainers clapped and cheared before he threw it down?

if that's really 5 plates he's far beyond strong, that is in another realm especially holding it for as long as he did.

yeah Gary was a beast on that movement but i gotta say that the way Marunde pushed that i think he could do 545 with a little time easily, i think Gary may have done a little over 500.

I think it's 405.


Here he is incline pressing 405 lbs:

http://marunde-muscle.com/videos/6-13-05_incline.wmv


I have a hard time believing he would get 495 lbs BNP.

Like I stated, it's what I believe after watching a few vids on Marunde's website.

The guy's a monster BTW, really good.

During 1994, Gary Taylor lifted 270kg (595lb) overhead, a new world record, but fate was unkind and he suffered a severe bicep injury which kept him out of some major contests. However, the fighting spirit which thrilled his many supporters was very much in evidence as he continued to win major contest and establish new records. I have been asked to referee Gary attempting a jerk from behind the neck with 272kg (600lb) for the Guinness Book of Records programme. This is still awaited as two severe injuries to arm and abdomen have taken their toll, and surgery has been necessary. At this time he is training heavy power cleaning up to 200kg and doing partial squats about 500kg for 15 reps! It looks likely that Gary will continue for quite some time giving pleasure to strength disciples the world over.

595, I think taht is still the world record.

i've seen this guy in person at a couple of meets and he's not very thick or big, he's tall and wide as a barn door though, he shows off a lot with the posing and running around screaming but he is a strong fuccker.

Hey David do you remember the WSM contest where him and Joe Onasai went head to head in the push press, i think they both did over 500 that day.

Some of his other clips are really impressive, his 20 rep squats are amazing. 

I actually met a few Irish strongmen recently, and they weren't big either (apart from Glenn Ross who was gigantic) but still amazing strong guys.

Yep Gary was a BEAST fir sure, I liek Marunde though, he showboats when he hits most musculars, btu he is very well spoken, and comes acorss as a really nice guy.

He had a lot of respect for mariuzs when he lost to him.

it's 495, pause it at 17 seconds and you can see it easily. there's three gray plates, one dark one, and then another light one. it's the dark one that makes the illusion of four.

Both train for two completely different disciplines. Comparing apples to oranges boys.  Levrone LOOKED like he could move a mountain..where Marunde would actually do so.

i dont think marunde could "outsquat" levrone when he was lifting real heavy in early 90s...or "outpress" him in bench or shoulder press.

but for lifting stones, grip etc...marunde is stronger (and better than) levrone. apples and oranges as you say.

Extremely impressive - quick BN jerk.  Not a press or a "push press."

He's done some very good lifting.
