yes, he has to deadlift it and lock it out like you would a normal two handed deadlift.

if that's Felix as well i think there was some doubt as to whether he made the lift or not but the 282 there was no doubt on.

true, he didn't hold it at the top for long. still, though. heaviest DB i've ever held without a strap was 180, i can't even imagine the grip necessary for 280+ on a goddamn RT.

yeah but Lee could lock it out and still have slack in the grip.

I bet he could clean it without even breaking it off the ground

The Rolling Thunder is not a normal one handed deadlift.  The grip is very thick and rotates on its axis if I am not mistaken.  Felix is an animal!

I bought one for my strongman contest I put on during my show in Hawaii.  Someone took it home.  I never really got to see it done except a few times.  But it has a huge handle and it does spin.  I think the guy who won my show did like 200 or so.  Very hard.

you mean that you don't own the world record in this? or trained the guy that does? or introduced the Gracies to it?

Felix has very impressive grip strength and his deadlift is world class.

Great lift.

Moron if I did I would tell you, I promise.  And should you be posting on a thread you have no idea what it is about or has anything to do with sucking a guys dick.  Know your place and you will be okay

Dave Henry couldn't even reach the handle.
