An old article in Sports Illustrated said Bob was so fast that he used to run 40's with the defensive backs while attending U of Texas.  Coach Darrel Royal said Bob was one of 2 of the most gifted athletes ever to play football at U of Texas.

Another set of brothers Doug and Clay Patterson went on to set another world record in this lift then biceps started tearing and I think everyone decided to give it up

Yup, seen that before (never knew about Doug Young tearing his bicep on the lift, though).

I use double-overhand grip when deadlifting.
Less strain on the biceps it seems compared to mixed-grip.
Even with the smaller-weights I use compared to these guys, people have torn biceps even using 315...

Why tear your biceps alone in the gym when you can tear it with a friend or a relative?
