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:

Ed Coan's 901 @ 220 I believe - ?

Pretty impressive too !

SuperTed · « **Reply #6 on:** June 11, 2015, 05:20:51 AM »

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

Damn. That dude has some long arms. Built to deadlift. Crazy strength considering his weight and the fact he wouldn't have been using any drugs.

I maxed out at 330kg raw

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?
