Amazing and you could see the effort. Truly inspirational.
Elvarouza, i have just seen his squat too he came up quick i am sure he could lift more than that effort.
He's a beast.

Wonderful videos. The squat & the bench look very effortless.

Videos like this seem to be pushing me mentally towards powerlifting.

WOW! That's what you call a strongman!

[JasonLB]

That was incredible. And the bench press was a thing of beauty...

i subscribe to his youtube, this did is sick. super strong, low body fat and just seems like a cool dude. purely amazing.

Really impressive stuff!
I was reading an interview with him (translated):

I don't use straps in training and don't have any problems pulling weight off the floor. In the rack I've pulled 500kg (1100lbs) and held onto it for 8 seconds.

Now that's one hell of a grip!

Amazing!

I have a lot of respect for him because he lifts completely raw. Just like I plan to do for the rest of my life when I'm lifting. No straps, no suits, no nothin. Just chalk and good 'ole elbow grease

I missed this section. 8 seconds holding onto 500kg!

This guy is very inspiring due to him being extremely strong, with pretty long limbs. He is tall.
Anyone know his perspective on steroids? I assume he is using, but I wonder how much/long? Anyone know?

There's a guy in the background shouting something like "dascoras". Anyone know what this means?
