505kg WORLD RECORD! History made again

Eddie Hall fans when they can’t find excuses this time.

Broke the DL record took a detour to boxing then came back to break the DL record again…. Congrats Brother!

Pedro Pascal could never

Watch out for the gym cleaner.

straps, doesn’t count

Eddie hall must be PISSED right now

his dad weighed the plates

The guy with the blue overalls and the mop would have done it with one hand, clean under and put it back and told u that those were fake weights...

Undisputed!! King of the Deadlifts THOR. That went EASY big man 505KG

That’s over half a ton. Freaking ridiculous

Who thought that smoke was a good idea.

1,113 lbs 💀

@grok what is that in pounds? Is that really a world record? What was the previous one?

@ThorBjornsson_ 505 kg is about 1,113 pounds. Yes, it's a new deadlift world record set by Hafþór Björnsson on July 26, 2025, at the Eisenhart Black Competition. The previous record was his own 501 kg (1,104 lbs) from 2020.

@Bettybronxton @ThorBjornsson_ Who held the previous record?

@Bettybronxton @ThorBjornsson_ Hafþór Björnsson held the previous record himself, with 501 kg (1,104 lbs) set in 2020 at the World's Ultimate Strongman competition in Iceland. He just surpassed it.

@s_handler37631 @Bettybronxton @ThorBjornsson_ @grok wasn't that lift disputed and not counted as an official record? One reason being that Bjornsson's father added the plates for the lift possible showing a bias?

The 501 kg lift in 2020 was disputed by Eddie Hall due to its home gym setting, but it's officially recognized by Guinness World Records and World's Ultimate Strongman, refereed by Magnús Ver Magnússon. Claims about his father adding plates appear in social media but lack substantiation in official accounts; calibrated plates were used. The new 505 kg is undisputed.

@jjvanaarsen @Bettybronxton @ThorBjornsson_ Can you list out the last 5 record holders on this world record in order please?

The last 5 record holders for the heaviest conventional deadlift (strongman style, in chronological order): 1. Benedikt Magnússon - 460 kg (1,014 lbs), 2011 2. Eddie Hall - 465 kg (1,025 lbs), 2015 3. Eddie Hall - 500 kg (1,102 lbs), 2016 4. Hafþór Björnsson - 501 kg (1,104 lbs), 2020 5. Hafþór Björnsson - 505 kg (1,113 lbs), 2025

Lotta roids.

Can’t wait to watch the interview in 20 years when he’s in a wheelchair

No nose bleed!

i could do that i just don’t feel like it

Colton's coming for that record!

Was an honor to see that live! LETS GO GZ

Is this official? Are we able to put it all to rest?

Raw Viking genes confirmed!🔥 Congrats with the WR Thor!

Straps or not, being able to lift over 1100 pounds is an incredible thing to do. Wow.

Only 505 kg? That's a warm up for me 👀👀

I could lift that with a pallet jack

Haftonn Björnsson

1113lbs is insane! What a human!

Easy lift could have done another 20kilos.

inb4 @eddiehallWSM says this doesn't count lol instead of dropping their pride and saying congrats for an insane feat of strength :o

Congrats @ThorBjornsson_ !! Well done with the injury and the recovery. Insane. Now can you lift @Knutspild aswell? I know he is heavy but you need to try atleast 😜

This is the 1 guy that stands a chance to fight a gorilla and win probably.

SPEEED!!! Congratulations, Thor!! LEFT NO DOUBT!! Undisputed!

Congratulations from the Floki fam 🔥🔥

That's more than I can do 👀

This is insane for those of you who don’t lift weights (you should if you don’t)
