Magnus Samuelsson - Strongman

Figured I’d make a thread about one of my favorite strongmen of all time. Won 1998 World’s Strongest Man and had one of the strongest upper-bodies in the history of strength sports and weightlifting. Stood at 6’7” 350

 

Posted a 595x2 bench press

 

closed a Captains of Crush #4 Gripper (this has been done by about 12-15 people in the world, if everyone trained grip, few would reach this level. Coming from a grip guy myself, this is an incredible feat). I have an elite grip and have closed the #3... two steps down from the 4.

 

barbell curled 315 - probably the most insane of them all 

 

and was strong in most events
